School education is different from university education. If at school students are under the care of parents and a team of teachers, then at university students face the need to independently organize their learning activities. This kind of change is embarrassing for many first-year students. This problem is associated with the low level of self-organization of first-year students. In addition to this, self-organization of students has its own character of manifestation in different groups of students. Based on the above, an urgent problem in pedagogical research is a qualitative and quantitative diagnosis of the level of selforganization of first-year students and the search for effective means to increase the level of self-organization of students. Thus, the problem of this study is to identify the existing level of self-organization among first-year students and recommend how to increase the level of selforganization. To diagnose the level of self-organization we used a diagnostic complex created by the author. According to the identified level and characteristics of self-organization, there are given recommendations for increasing the level and quality of self-organization of firstyear students using time management techniques. An increase in the level of self-organization in the experimental group of students in educational activities was revealed. Consequently, the time management technology in the development of students’ organizational skills in educational activities is considered justified and effective self-management.

E-learning is seen as a possible solution to the problem of modernization of the university education in response to the changing needs of the society. In undergraduate healthcare training, e-learning is implemented predominantly as blended learning in addition to the traditional classroom teaching. A major factor in the success of e-learning are learners’ attitudes, beliefs and concerns. The aim of the present study was to investigate undergraduate healthcare students’ attitude to e-learning at Medical University – Plovdiv. In this case, e-learning is considered to be electronic educational resources organized as an interactive e-learning unit or course, provided through a learning content management system. The survey was carried out in 2016 through a self-reported questionnaire among 270 first year students from ten healthcare specialties. Participants were asked to express a degree of agreement with nine statements on a five point Likert scale. The influence of gender, age, specialty and previous e-learning experience on the opinion of students was investigated. The results showed that students’ attitudes towards e-learning were positive, but learners were not enthusiastic about it. Genders have different views about e-learning implementation – women are more likely to accept it. The experience first year students had did not allow them to judge if e-learning supports better time-management or life-long learning skills. Students agreed that implementation of e-learning depends on the subjects and there are disciplines that can be provided as distant courses within the learning management system.

The result of study in a modern institution of higher art education is focused on the personal and professional growth of the student through the development of his independence. However, personal development is inseparable from professional. In both the first and the second case, the principle of self-development is the basis. Here the ability of the person to prepare own vital activity for practice-oriented transformation which is a basis of self-realization of the person, its progressive self-development is important. In the course of self-organization there are changes in life, and the ability to develop it affects the formation of readiness to meet the requirements of the time. Here an important part of professional training in higher art education is the formation of motivation in future teachers of music art, because the activity of students is determined by internal reserves, motives, needs, desires, abilities. The technology of time management in the development of professional competencies of future music teachers is aimed at the rational use of strength and health of students, to increase the level of personal self-organization. In terms of technology, the teacher's activities include the following actions: the first stage - the motivation of students and the creation of optimal conditions for a clear distribution of the budget of educational time of self-organization; the second stage - the motivation of future teachers of music to self-diagnose the development of their individual tempo-rhythmic characteristics of self-organization (speed, accuracy, tempo, rhythm of work performed); the third stage - the motivation of future teachers of music to plan educational activities, the ability to determine the sequence of implementation of the planned program of action in the process of self-preparation, as well as the ability to analyze, evaluate and monitor the results of independent work. Time management technology contributes to the design of an intensive path of self-educational activities based on a system of methods and regulators of activity, the algorithm of rational use of time; theoretical prerequisites for this technology were: the law of saving time, the principles of scientific organization of labor, the theory of temporal dynamics of human life, individualized models of educational time (optimal, developmental, functional and pedagogical), activation of cognitive activity (algorithmization of educational activities, programmed learning, time methods) -management), the idea of saving and rational use of time, its subjective organization, issues of work, rest, etc., this technology includes consideration of the scientific component, based on the achievements of pedagogical theory and best practices.

Geographical relocation is often associated with problems adjusting to the new physical and sociocultural environment (Totman, 1979) and with the stress of disruption to lifestyle routines (Cochrane, 1983; Cochrane & Stopes-Roe, 1980). Relocation commonly entails culture shock, financial difficulties, separation from family, racial discrimination, and language difficulties (Murphy, 1977; Oberg, 1960); frequent relocation is also associated with illness (Stokols, Shumaker, & Martinez, 1983).One group of people who tend to relocate relatively frequently consists of students, many of whom do report difficulties attributed to relocation (Anderson & Fleming, 1985; Fulmer, Medalie, & Lord, 1982; Simmonds, 1987). Their problems appear to be common to those of migrants in general (Cochrane, 1983; Cochrane & Stopes-Roe, 1980). One very frequent complaint is the familiar one of homesickness.Homesickness is commonly used to describe any condition of unhappiness or malaise which follows a transition to a new environment (Fisher, 1988). Denoted as “pining for home” (Chambers Dictionary, 1972) or “depressed by absence from home” (Concise Oxford Dictionary, 1964), students reportedly agree that homesickness has four main elements: missing home, missing family, longing to see friends, and wanting to go home (Brewin, Furnham, & Howes, 1989).Recent studies conducted in Scotland found that homesickness affected 60 to 70 percent of native first-year students (Fisher, Fraser, & Murray, 1984; Fisher, Fraser, & Murray, 1985), a figure which approximates that found for boarding school students (Fisher, Fraser, & Murray, 1986). Homesickness was associated with cognitive failures, poor concentration, handing in work late, and decrement of work quality (Fisher et al., 1985; Fisher & Hood, 1987). In other words, there was some evidence that homesickness may affect academic performance.

The Study Management and Academic Results Test (SMART) was developed to measure study- and examination-related cognitions, time management, and study strategies. This questionnaire was used in three prospective studies, together with measures for optimism and test anxiety. In the first two studies, done among 253 first-year students enrolled in four different faculties, the highest significant correlations with academic performance were found for the SMART scales. In a replication study among first-year medical students ( n = 156) at a different university, the same pattern of results was observed. A stepwise multiple regression analysis, with academic performance as a dependent variable, showed significant correlations only for the SMART Test Competence and Time Management (Multiple R = .61). Results give specific indications about the profile of successful students.

The article considers the possibility of using non-traditional recreational facilities in the educational process with university students. The purpose of the study is to assess the impact of the developed methodology for fitball gymnastics and fitness yoga on the health level of students. To achieve the goal, the following tasks were set: theoretically substantiate the proposed methodology of classes; identify and conduct a comparative analysis of adaptive potential according to the method of R.M. Baevsky and the level of the functional state of first-year students during an experimental study. Scientific novelty lies in the expansion of theoretical and practical approaches to physical education at the university. The positive impact of the proposed teaching methods on the level of functional readiness of first-year students is substantiated and experimentally proved. To improve the methodology, a set of methods was used: analysis of scientific and methodological literature, the method of pedagogical research, pedagogical experiment, methods of mathematical statistics.

Freedom And Responsibility

The paper reveals the future teachers’ attitude towards freedom and responsibility in the context of sustainable development of education. Sustainable development seems to be impossible without the new generation of free, dignified, respectful, and responsible individuals. Freedom and responsibility are outlined from a pedagogical point of view. The concepts under study are considered to be of great significance for child’s development. The information obtained during the survey and questionnaire conducted with first-year students of the pedagogical university indicates that future teachers do not yet have sufficient experience to correlate adequately the possibility of revealing school students’ freedom and the need to be in charge of the behavior, actions and thoughts of their own. University students believe that school students generally take responsibility for completing individual assignments rather than common ones. Future teachers do not think that school students’ attitude towards education is responsible and trustworthy, would-be teachers doubt that school students are able to manifest freedom and responsibility to full extent. The empirical data drive to the conclusion that it is necessary to change future teachers’ attitude towards freedom and responsibility in their pedagogical activities. Future teachers are advised to change their attitude to freedom and responsibility in their activities.

Multiple Challenges

The present research analyses one out of multiple challenges the first-year students face during their transition to academic life, namely, the first-year students’ work and rest balance. The balance, if managed wisely, might become a strong enabler to a successful transition to university life. The study analyses a series of factors, such as the balance of work and rest of the first-year students, skills of time management and the psychological state during the first months at university. The study employs a comparative analysis to evaluate the average hours of work and rest per week of a first-year student comparing with the planned time. The data of students’ work and rest balance was collected from the diary they were asked to record for two months. A focus group was comprised of twenty-five respondents of finance, twelve students of language and three of health science study programs at Lithuanian universities.
