Tonia Fyrigou

In this chapter, the goal is to describe the effectiveness of the implementation of the i2Flex in two different courses in the past five consecutive academic years in an attempt to meet more effectively the educational needs of the new educational framework. Starting with the description of the i2Flex methodology in a Greek class and in an online French class, the author presents the instructional (re-)design of the Moodle shell to reflect the new teaching methodology, and the need to evaluate this via an appropriate framework. It is obvious that the goal is to share under the umbrella of best practices how meaningful and efficient the i2Flex is in two different educational frames. At the same time, the use of community of inquiry (CoI) is taken in consideration to evaluate this educational process. Finally, the new role of the teacher, face to face and virtually, is observed to prove the progress of the educational environment.

In this paper, I will share and discuss my involvement with the i2Flex in the two past academic years following the educational needs of the new generation students. First, I will describe how I went about my first encounter with i2Flex in the IB French class as a member of the pilot i2Flex faculty at ACS Athens, namely: a) I will present the instructional (re-) design of my Moodle class to reflect the new teaching methodology, and b) I will explain the need to evaluate this pilot year via an appropriate framework. Then, I will move on, describing my class in the second year, from how i2Flex was at this point implemented to how it was evaluated and what data was collected from the students. Finally, my goal is to share under the umbrella of best practices how meaningful and efficient the i2Flex is, taking in consideration the new role of the teacher in and out of class and the student’s unique potential. This experience is a new powerful learning process for both sides, since teacher and students are on the same boat with a unique goal to achieve the best quality of learning.

The application of constructive geometric modeling to pedagogical models of teaching graphic disciplines today is a promising direction for using computer technology in the educational process of educational institutions. The essence of the method of constructive geometric modeling is to represent any operation performed on geometric objects in the form of a transformation, as a result of which some constructive connection is established, and the transformation itself can be considered as a result of the action of an abstract cybernetic device. Constructive geometric modeling is a popular information tool for information processing in various applied areas, however, this tool cannot be appreciated without the presence of appropriate software systems and developed design techniques. Traditionally, constructive geometric modeling is used in the design of mechanical engineering, energy, aircraft and shipbuilding facilities, in architectural and design engineering. The need to study descriptive geometry at the university in recent years has something in common with the issues of mastering graphic packages of computer programs in the framework of the new discipline "Engineering and Computer Graphics". The well-known KOMPAS software product is considered the simplest and most attractive for training. It should be noted the important role of graphic packages in the teaching of geometric disciplines that require a figurative perception of the material by students. Against the background of a reduction in classroom hours, computer graphics packages are practically the only productive teaching methodology, successfully replacing traditional tools - chalk and blackboard.

The article deals with the phenomena of lifestyle and educational environment of confessional educational organizations. The methodological basis of the research is based on general scientific methodological approaches (system, comparative, historical, ontological) and special scientific methodological approaches: a system-activity approach, which assumes a motivated solution of problems in the educational process determined by problem situations; a cultural approach that allows us to correlate general, individual and special cultural phenomena, in particular religion and education; an anthropological approach that allowed the interpretation of knowledge from various spheres of life from the point of view of pedagogy. The article contains definitions of the following concepts: «Lifestyle of a confessional educational organization» and «Educational environment of a confessional educational organization». The role of religious worship in the development and functioning of the confessional educational environment is noted. The main factors of the external environment that have a determining influence on the confessional educational environment are highlighted. The author emphasizes the open nature of the modern confessional educational process, which unfolds in the context of a dialogue between all its parties: the religious denomination, the state and the individual.

Статья посвящена изучению роли преподавательской деятельности в профилактике возникновения межличностных конфликтов в образовательной среде студентов средне-специальных и высших образовательных организаций России. В частности, рассматривается морально-психологическая составляющая обучающегося как фактор, провоцирующий возникновение межличностных конфликтов, а также вопросы, раскрывающие особенности конфликтных ситуаций среди обучающихся в целях развития умения у них регулировать конфликты в дальнейшем процессе обучения. В статье рассматривается особая роль возраста студента, поскольку именно в этом возрастном периоде формируется чувство идентичности и умение самостоятельно решать собственные взрослые задачи. Определены предпосылки возникновения межличностных конфликтов в образовательной среде студентов. В частности, отмечено, что постоянное соперничество и иные эмоциональные столкновения приводят к нарушению личностной гармонии студента и способствуют возникновению различных социальных отклонений в среде обучающихся. В заключение рассмотрены факторы, положительно влияющие на профилактику конфликтных ситуаций среди студентов образовательных организаций, а также представлен комплекс организационно-педагогических условий профилактики межличностных конфликтов в профессионально-образовательной среде средне-специальных и высших учебных заведений России. Отмечено, что минимизации конфликтных ситуаций способствуют хорошо организованные воспитательная работа и учебный процесс, утверждение и поддержание дисциплины, активная позиция преподавателей и воспитателей в трудных ситуациях взаимодействия обучающихся. The article is devoted to the study of the role of teaching in the prevention of interpersonal conflicts in the educational environment of students of secondary special and higher educational organizations in Russia. In particular, the moral and psychological component of the student is considered as a factor that provokes the emergence of interpersonal conflicts, as well as issues that reveal the features of conflict situations among students in order to develop their ability to regulate conflicts in the future learning process. The article considers the special role of the student's age, since it is in this age period that a sense of identity and the ability to independently solve their own adult tasks are formed. The prerequisites for the emergence of interpersonal conflicts in the educational environment of students are determined. In particular, it is noted that constant rivalry and other emotional clashes lead to a violation of the student's personal harmony and contribute to the emergence of various social deviations among students. In conclusion, the factors that positively affect the prevention of conflict situations among students of educational organizations are considered, and a set of organizational and pedagogical conditions for the prevention of interpersonal conflicts in the professional and educational environment of secondary and higher educational institutions of Russia is developed. It is noted that the minimization of conflict situations is facilitated by well-organized educational work and the educational process, the approval and maintenance of discipline, the active position of teachers and educators in difficult situations of interaction between students.
