This chapter will describe an approach to monitoring and forecasting the development of innovative educational technologies based on text stream analysis. The approach will involve detecting education-related events in the stream of text documents, constructing situations, determining possible scenarios of further development of situations, and generating recommendations for successful introduction of detected innovations into the educational process of the university. The authors will propose a multicriteria model of an event reflecting its key aspects. The chapter will describe an event detection method based on incremental clustering, as well as a scenario generation method based on the principle of historical analogy. The authors will discuss several experiments to evaluate the quality of the methods.

The work considered a system of knowledge control of the Kharkiv National Automobile and Highway University. It was shown that the quality of higher education depends mainly on the level of student training, the qualifications of teaching staff, the organization of the learning process, the efficiency of monitoring the quality of the education, and also factors allowing to improve the quality of education in the university. Assessment of the knowledge quality received by the students in the "Chemistry" discipline was carried out among the students of the Automobile Faculty of the KHNADU, entered the first year of the Bachelor of full-time education, during 2014/15–2018/19 academic years. The control was carried out with the help of traditional pedagogical practice types – the main (preliminary, final, and control of residual knowledge) and periodical (current and thematic knowledge tests). Statistical research on the performance of the main types of students' knowledge control, as more significant, shows that the important part of educational activity in university is an effective organization of its control. It was established that main principles of the control of students’ knowledge received during learning subject are the regularity and systematical conduct, the objectivity of assessment of the level of students' skills, the ability to identify the actual level of learning educational materials by the students, the timeliness of identification of the gaps in the learning process by the teacher and applying ways to overcome them. The internal and external factors affecting the performance of students during studying the "Chemistry" discipline have been distinguished. The internal factors are the knowledge level before entering the university and the motivation for learning the subject. The external are an organization of the educational process, self-organization of student learning activity, teaching methods and forms and professionalism of the educator, quality of additional services (holding consultations and individual lessons), educator-student relationship. It was identified that during studying the "Chemistry" discipline, the influence of the factors that students had before entering the university is weakened, and the external factors, which appeared in the process of studying in university, have a significant impact.

The subject of the article is the formation of professional culture of students; it is considered in order to improve the work on its formation in the educational process at the University, in particular-in RIPB-on the material of training economists, lawyers and customs officers. The authors describe professional culture as a set of special knowledge and practical skills of a person as an “employeeˮ, implemented in a specific type of socially significant work, emphasize that it is based on the universal values of a professional as a «person». Therefore, the formation of professional culture is inseparable from the socio-humanitarian development of students, carried out in the course of studying the relevant disciplines. According to the authors, any professional culture has its own organization (in our case - University), which is based on a particular professional activity (in particular, University training), while it embodies a Form that is subject to “fillingˮ with the specific Content of various activities as socially institutionalized pro-fessions. As conclusions, the following problems are substantiated: introduction of a special course “Professional cultureˮ; overcoming “departmentalˮ disciplinarity in the study of socio-humanitarian and professional dis-ciplines; improving the quality of “formalˮ training of students in the conditions of digitalization and comput-erization; development of a culture of extracurricular forms of professional work.

The article describes the dynamics of students’ attitude to distance learning in the situation of forced transition to distance learning in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic. Students’ attitude to the content, organizational and motivational aspects of distance learning was studied using a questionnaire with online service Google form. The study was organized by the longitudinal method. Measurements of students’ attitude were carried out in the early days of distance learning and at the end of the first month. Research questions concerned 1) assessing changes in the organization of educational process, its efficiency and students’ self-motivation in the first days after the transition to distance learning; 2) changes in attitude to distance learning at the end of the first month: 3) contribution of objective factors (curriculum, financial conditions of study, place of stay during the period of distance learning, experience in the use of online educational platforms, current academic achievements) to the dynamics of the students’ attitude. The participants of the study were 94 students of the 1st-4th year. The results revealed a steady trend to lower evaluations by students the quality of assimilating knowledge, abilities and skills as well as to decrease of learning motivation and quality of interaction with teachers on the subjective background of increasing educational load. The general tendency to worsening assessments of distance learning can be mitigated by such factors as pre-formed competencies in the use of distance educational technologies, external (financial) incentives to learn and the ability to change the usual way of life due to changes in the usual place of residence.

Students now have information processing behaviors characterized by rapid shifts in attention, less reflection and failure to deploy metacognitive processes, preferring activities that bring immediate rewards for their information needs, even if the quality of the information they obtain is low. Consequently, they run into significant difficulties in the selection and critical evaluation of the information they find during university learning activities. This article presents two information literacy training initiatives addressing these issues at the University of Padova (Italy): one in a course in educational technologies offered as part of a second-cycle degree program, and the other in two of the university library system's training facilities. The training workshops sought to be complementary, covering both the search engine and the library OPAC approach to information seeking.
