Working Practices

The article analyzes the principles of interaction of regional social services with children with disabilities and their families. The authors considered the working practices of social institutions as well as cultural and educational institutions as the subject of the study. This allowed for the author’s analysis and interpretation of existing contradictions arising from the introduction of inclusive practices into the organizational culture of the regional social service. The data obtained in the course of the interregional empirical study demonstrate the disproportionateness of the processes of socialization and inclusion of children with disabilities, which is expressed in the lack of readiness as social services themselves (in methodological and methodical levels) and staff (practical, procedural levels) to carry out their mission - the application and development of inclusion practices not only in educational and social and social areas, but also in the field of sociocultural and professional socialization. The study found that, despite constant discussion of inclusion and disability, the concept of ‘inclusion’ is still misunderstanding among social service professionals. This has a negative impact on the effectiveness and effectiveness of the day-to-day activities of social services, the quality of their work, and the implementation of ideas of inclusive culture in practice.

This article presents the author’s definitions of “digitization of social service provision” and “digitization of social services” concepts and identifies the difference between them. It presents the results of an interview with 18 experts — the heads of institutions and organizations of social service provision implementing the rehabilitation of disabled people in Perm region. The research was conducted in 2019 and sought to identify problems and prospects for the digitization of the social services sphere. Interviewees rated their satisfaction regarding the convenience and time cost of automated systems that are currently being used in their organizations; characterized their needs in introducing various innovative interactive services, mobile applications, and other digital software; and expressed their attitude to various innovations. Social innovations were developed by the researchers and offered to experts by interviewers (for example, services for assessing the quality of work of specialists by service users, quick selection of the right social service, filing a complaint, referring a citizen to another organization, counseling in video mode, electronic appointment service, etc.). The research has shown how innovations can improve the performance of social service providers’ work and the quality of their interactions with citizens, which will ultimately increase the satisfaction of social service users and will positively affect the level of social well-being in society as a whole. A number of problems have been identified that currently impede the development of digitization: they are related to staff resources, the level of computerization, the lack of motivation among managers and personnel of social service organizations to implement innovative IT, and a certain distrust that such technologies can facilitate the activities of the organization and increase its effectiveness.

AbstrakGejala sekularisasi organisasi pelayanan sosial semakin masif. Sekularisasi ini disebabkan karena masyarakat semakin rasional pada realitas sosial yang menuntut kualitas pelayanan sosial lebih baik. Masyarakat yang rasional adalah masyarakat yang mampu mengorganisir dan melakukan peran serta tindakan atas dasar pertimbangan logis atas realitas. Hadirnya organisasi menjadi cirri masyarakat rasional. Organisasi adalah bentukan sosial yang berisi kesepakatan gagasan pemikiran, nilai, ideologi dan tujuan. Ketika agama menjadi bagian di dalamnya, maka organisasi menjadi lebih kuat dengan tatanan nilai dan aturan-aturan yang selalu merujuk pada nilai agama sebagai dasar keyakinannya. Keyakinan pada nilai agama menjadi spirit organisasi untuk merancang dan merealisasikan tujuannya. Maka organisasi yang berbasis keagamaan memiliki sensifitas dan orientasi untuk kesejahteraan yang lebih baik. Kesejahteraan tidak hanya bagi obyek, tetapi juga bagi subyek organisasi. Tesis Weber bahwa semakin menguatnya organisasi atau lembaga formal di masyarakat justru akan mempersempit ruang-ruang keagamaan, ternyata tidaklah demikian. Justru dengan hadirnya agama dalam organisasi, maka jangkauan organisasi semakin luas, memasuki sel-sel organisasi secara lebih dalam dan manusiawi.   Kata kunci: keagamaan, organisasi, strategi AbstractSymptoms of secularization of social service organizations are increasingly masiv. This secularization is caused by increasingly rational society in social reality that demands better quality of social services. A rational society is a society capable of organizing and performing action based on logical reasoning of reality. The presence of the organization became the cirri of rational society. Organization is a social form that contains agreement of ideas of thought, value, ideology and purpose. When religion becomes part of it, the organization becomes stronger with the order of values and rules that always refer to the value of religion as the basis of its belief. Confidence in the value of religion becomes the spirit of the organization to design and realize its objectives. Hence religious-based organizations have sensitivity and orientation for better welfare. Welfare is not only for the object, but also for the subject of the organization. Weber's thesis that the strengthening of formal organizations or institutions in society will actually narrow the religious spaces, it is not so. Precisely with the presence of religion within the organization, the scope of the organization increasingly widespread, entering the cells of the organization more deeply and humanely.Keywords: organization, religion, strategy

This article deals with the issue of self-preservation of elderly people when learning to work on a computer from the point of view of information and psychological security. The necessity of solving new socio-psychological problems is indicated: to develop the ability to give a correct assessment of a specific information threat, to prevent the negative impact of the information environment, to resist negative factors, and to contribute to improving the quality of life. The purpose of counseling elderly people is to develop their ability to understand the problem of the negative impact of the information environment on psychological and physiological health, to be able to apply methods to ensure information and psychological security. Consulting and educational work with the elderly and employees of social institutions engaged in professional activities directly related to the above category should be aimed at preventing cases of fraudulent activities. Consulting work with them should not only meet the general principles of building psychological contact, but also cause an understanding of the importance of compliance with security in the digital sphere. Elderly people develop the ability to assess correctly a specific information threat and prevent the negative impact of the information environment by providing adequate resistance to negative factors and contributing to improving their quality of life. It is increasingly difficult for older people to navigate threats, unmotivated anxiety increases, depressiveness appears and becomes fixed, and asocial personality traits are formed. At the present time, it is necessary to consider the formation of information and computer literacy as a mechanism to counteract the negative impact of the information environment and a necessary condition for developing an effective strategy for the social adaptation of elderly people.

The Impact

Topicality of the study of the attitude to the distance learning format is due to the need to study the impact of such interaction in the “pedagogue-studentˮ system on the quality, motivation and overall satisfaction of students with the learning process. The study involved 120 people from 6 six higher education institutions in Moscow. The use of content analysis allowed us to identify 8 significant contexts (areas) around which the statements of the study participants are grouped: “Roadˮ, “Teachersˮ, “Returnˮ, “Distance learningˮ, “Full-time, full-time attendingˮ, “Training, training formatˮ, “Provided, changedˮ, “Qualityˮ. The results obtained indicate that the main disadvantages of the distance learning format, according to the respondents, are the lack of live communication with teachers, a decrease in the level of motivation and self-organisation, which ultimately has a negative impact on the psychoemotional state of students and the quality of material assimilation. At the same time, among the obvious advantages, there is a reduction in transport and time costs for the road to the place of study, as well as the opportunity to study the material at a convenient time. The results obtained can be used in the development of distance learning programmes for students of higher educational institutions of the Russian Federation.

Предмет «Закон Божий» являлся один из самых главных предметов в низших и средних учебных заведениях Российской империи на протяжении двух веков. Под влиянием предмета, дающего знания о Боге, предмета важного не только в образовательном, но и в воспитательном значении, выросло не одно поколение православного населения России. Изучение этого предмета было обязательным для всех детей, принявших Святое Крещение в Православной Церкви. Закону Божию обучали и на дому, но главным местом, где ребёнок мог впитать религиозные знания, была школа. Преподавали Закон Божий в основном священники, а должность их называлась «законоучитель». Законоучитель наравне с другими преподавателями пользовался всеми правами государственной службы. К концу XIX века появились проблемы, связанные с процессом преподавания Закона Божия, в отношении предмета учебные программы устарели, в отношении законоучителей появлялись, в силу определённых обстоятельств, неоднократные случаи нерадивого отношения к своему делу, в отношении самих учащихся было зафиксировано большое количество случаев активных выступлений против изучения Закона Божия. Все вышеперечисленные проблемы пытались решить в свете церковных реформ начала прошлого столетия. Данная статья посвящена вопросу преподавания Закона Божия в работе Высочайше учреждённого Предсоборного Присутствия. В исследовании рассмотрено место предмета «Закон Божий» в заседаниях данного органа, заинтересованность им членами Присутствия, предложения по улучшению качества преподавания столь важного предмета и его сохранению в списке обязательных предметов в учебных заведениях Российской империи. The subject of the Law of God was one of the most important subjects in the lower and secondary schools of the Russian Empire for two centuries. It was a subject which gave knowledge of God, a subject important not only in its educational, but also in its educational meaning, and under the influence of which several generations of the Orthodox population of Russia grew up. The study of this subject was obligatory for all children who received holy Baptism in the Orthodox Church. The Law of God was also taught at home, but the main place where a child could absorb religious knowledge was in school. The Law of God was taught mainly by priests, and their post was called a teacher of the law. The teacher of the law enjoyed all the rights of public service on an equal footing with other teachers. By the end of the 19th century, problems associated with the process of teaching the Law of God had appeared, the syllabus for the subject was out of date, there were repeated cases of negligence on the part of the teachers, and there were many cases of active protests against the teaching of God's Law by the students themselves. All the above-mentioned problems tried to be solved in the light of the church reforms of the beginning of the last century. This article is devoted to the question of teaching God's Law in the work of the Presidium of the Most High Council. The research examines the place of God's Law subject at the meetings of this body, the interest of the Presence members in it, the suggestions to improve the quality of teaching such an important subject and its preservation in the list of obligatory subjects in the educational institutions of the Russian Empire.

The article notes that there has been a steady increase in the proportion of the elderly in all regions of the world in recent years, especially distinguished by this characteristic Europe, similar changes are taking place in Ukraine. The agenda of intergovernmental and non-governmental international organizations raises the question of shaping society's attitude to its oldest members as a source of wisdom and experience, recognizing the importance of their contribution to the development of various spheres of public life. At the global and European level, a system of normative acts is being formed aimed at ensuring the enjoyment of fundamental rights and freedoms of the elderly, preventing discrimination on the basis of age and disability, and formulating public policies to promote maximum active and healthy aging. It is emphasized that an understanding of a “decent life” is not limited to the availability of a certain level of material wealth and the availability of social services. Equally important for the elderly is the opportunity for as long as possible (but in accordance with their own desire) to continue working, communicate in a professional environment, maintain a sense of self-importance and need, as well as to receive education. The need for special attention from the state is due to the particular vulnerability of the elderly, in particular, in the conditions of being a client of social institutions and / or in the presence of negative changes in health. The analysis of the Ukrainian social legislation gives grounds to claim that our country does not stand aside from global trends and pays considerable attention to the development of legal norms for improving the quality of life of elderly people. The activities of the Commissioner for Human Rights, the Ministry of Social Policy of Ukraine, employment agencies and public organizations also contribute to this. Much of the work of social workers has to do with the care of the elderly, so it is important to provide quality social services, to build a consciously respectful attitude towards the honor and dignity of social service clients, and to empower older generations to live the lifestyle they desire. Establishing and applying in Ukraine a system of standards for determining eligibility and provision of social services, establishing adequate care payments for the elderly, as well as bringing European standards to the standard of other types of social welfare payments that will contribute to improving the quality of life of the elderly .
