For a long time, the primary approach to assessment was the normative approach when the individual achievements of students were compared with a particular norm (the results of most students). Recently, domestic pedagogical research has been developing a criteria-based approach to assessing academic achievement when students' achievements are compared with the amount of knowledge that needs to be acquired at a particular stage of training. This study aimed to determine the role of criteria-based assessment in the formation of students functional literacy in computer science and to build a criteria-based assessment model in the development of functional literacy beyond to demonstrate the effectiveness of the methods of formation of students functional literacy in computer science. The leading research methods were the criteria-based assessment methodology developed by the authors and the method of formative assessment. Some elements of the methodology of forming evaluation were considered. For further development of the methods for the formation of students functional literacy in computer science, a criteria-based assessment model has been built. The introduction of criteria-based assessment will allow to switch to a formative evaluation aimed at developing student competence. The evaluation, consisting of criteria that a student understands, stimulates him and makes the learning process meaningful. Based on practical experiments and the proposed criteria-based assessment, the effectiveness of methods for the formation of students functional literacy in computer science has been proved.

In current conditions, the priority of young people's preparation for life and work is especially important. Consequently, the requirements for the training of a future psychologist are also changing. One of the essential properties of a psychologist, necessary for the successful implementation of their activities, is empathy. The problem of empathy is one of the most difficult psychological sciences. The implacability of this phenomenon for researchers confirms the diversity in the definitions of its essence, mechanisms, functions, the role of empathy in the personality moral development, prosocial behaviour, altruism, and others like that. The presence of the appropriate level of empathic properties of students-psychologists acts as a condition for the formation of their professional compliance. Subjective factors of empathy formation: value sphere of personality, type of interpersonal relations, level of self-centeredness, type of accentuation of character, types of attitudes to different spheres of life, level of subjective control. Therefore, in the article, empathy development is studied in students who get a psychologist's degree. It is determined that in general subjects have average empathy level. By dividing students into groups, according to their level of empathy, it has been established that different value orientations characterize boys with different levels of empathy. It is determined that the overwhelming majority of respondents have a mean self-centeredness level. It was found that the obtained data provide an opportunity for further development of empathy among students. As a result of our research, we are convinced that the objective factors for the formation of empathy are: the perception of other people, the maturity of the individual. Our research is not exhaustive; our further development will concern the deepening of the ideas about the empathy component of the personality of the future psychologist and the methods of its development.

The article deals with the formation of functional literacy of students through the technology of project activities in biology lessons.Project activity is one of the most effective educational technologies of a modern school.It is a purposeful, independent activity of students under the guidance of a teacher.The teacher creates a positive emotional mood of all students during the work on the project and organizes equal partner confidential communication.The essence of this technology is to stimulate children's interest in certain problems involving the possession of a certain amount of knowledge and through project activities to show the practical application of the knowledge obtained. This project is designed for individual work, pair work, group work, which students perform for a certain period of time.At the same time,the role of the teacher changes - from a simple translator ofknowledge, it becomes a real organizer of joint work with students, contributing to the transition to real cooperation in the course of knowledge acquisition. The project activity is based on the development of students ' cognitive skills, the ability to independently construct their knowledge, navigate the information space, and develop critical and creative thinking.This technology allows students to acquire knowledge in the process of their own educational and cognitive activities.Project activity is one of the most effective means of forming key competencies of students at the moment.

The article establishes that creativity is a complex, interdisciplinary problem that attracts the scientific interest of specialists in various fields of knowledge, especially pedagogy and psychology. The purpose of the article is to identify the main aspects of the problem of creativity and to outline the relevant areas of scientific psychological and pedagogical research. It is revealed that creativity is reasonably considered as a universal personality trait, an integral creative ability. Psychological and pedagogical research emphasizes the important place and role of creativity in training and activities. It was found that creativity is mainly associated with creativity and talent of the individual, with the development of his creative abilities. The connection of creativity with other personality traits, in particular with the level of its intellectual development, as well as with imagination, intuition, the need for self-actualization, etc., is being actively developed. It is stated that in the psychological and pedagogical scientific literature the question of at what age one should start work on the formation of creativity or which age is the most favorable for this continues to be discussed. Some scholars argue that the formation of creativity should begin in the early stages of personality development, others believe that especially favorable for the development of creativity is the senior school age. It was found that scientists are interested in the development of creativity in higher education, including pedagogy. Creativity is considered as a component of professional skill. One of the aspects of the problem of creativity and the corresponding direction of psychological and pedagogical research is creative thinking. The issue of creative competence is also being developed. Much of the research on certain issues is devoted to the conditions, methods and technologies of formation and development of creativity. These include creative environment, search and research and invention activities, practical classes, information and communication, interactive (game), design technologies, case method, design, modeling.

The article deals the problem of personality socialization in philosophical, sociological, psychological and pedagogical research. In philosophical context, the process of socialization means the development of a personality in the phylogenetic and ontogenetic terms, which determines the role of this process in the development of not only an individual, but society as a whole; socialization involves active interaction between the individual and society. In a sociological context, socialization is seen as the acceptance of social norms, rules, and models of behavior in the context of culture, highlighting the active or passive role of the person himself in this process. In the psychological context, socialization theories reveal the specifics of the development of various aspects of personality. Socialization is viewed as the development of individual properties and qualities of a person in the process of interaction with the environment. On the basis of social experience is the internal position of the individual, her individuality, which indicates her active position in the process of socialization. In pedagogical research, socialization is investigated in the aspect of the upbringing process. Socialization is viewed as a controlled and purposeful process of forming in a student the values, norms, attitudes, patterns of behavior inherent in a given society, which will allow the student to perform the most important function of the student's transition from the object of training and education to the subject of social development, and in the future - to an active subject of self-education and self-development.

Although plagiarism, cheating and academic integrity receive increased attention, literature provides little practical advice or strategies on how to approach these topics with students. In this paper we describe a case study in relation to an intervention we have developed to help our students prevent plagiarism and to foster academic integrity amongst our studentship. In the two hour workshop students are supported in gaining a deeper understanding of what plagiarism is and provides them with practical examples of how plagiarism can be avoided. In the context of the workshop plagiarism is discussed in its many forms of the intentional and unintentional stealing or appropriating of ideas that are not credited accordingly (Helgesson & Eriksson, 2015). The intervention also encompasses discussions around academic integrity and what academic integrity means in theory and in practice. The six steps in our intervention are a sorting activity (what is plagiarism?), the presentation of real cases (what is the impact of plagiarism?), practising to synthesise ideas (how can I prevent plagiarism), the role of plagiarism-detection software such as Turnitin (how can I check for plagiarism?), the formulation of an integrity code and a summary of the content covered in the session (what do I know now?). The intervention draws upon research and practical experiences and is designed in such a way that with adaptations it can be delivered to all levels of students and courses. Following the presentation of the individual elements of the workshop the article concludes with a brief outline of a research project in relation to our workshop, which will be used to inform our further development of the intervention but also to provide a more formal evaluation of its effectiveness.

Annotation. Acute disorder of cerebral circulation (ADCC) occupies leading positions in mortality and disability in Ukraine, despite new treatments and modern medical care. Current data suggest that the problem of treatment and rehabilitation of patients after ADCC can be solved with the help of neurotrophins – a family of proteins that regulate the processes of plasticity in the brain. Due to the similarity of their structure, they are able to act as a holistic system, helping to repair damaged areas of the brain. Therefore, the purpose of this review was to collect information on the structure and function of neurotrophins BDNF, NGF, NT-3 and NT-4, their role in neuroplasticity after stroke in order to develop modern methods of influencing them for further implementation in practice. For this purpose, 50 sources from the main databases (Elsevier, Pubmed, Web of Science, Google Scholar) were used. The systematic review describes the structure of neurotrophins and their function, mechanisms of neuroplasticity and methods of influencing it, in particular exercise and diet. Since these methods have a general therapeutic effect and require a long time for its onset, the prospects for further development are the creation of drugs targeted to the neurotrophin system for effective rehabilitation of patients after stroke.

The educated and literate individual has significantly more chances for successful realization in society.The most important quality of the modern personality is its adaptability. An important characteristic of a successful individual, in addition to the amount of knowledge, are a set of skills that are applied in various life situations. The environment in which the child grows and develops is saturated with dynamism, which is determined by the development of technology and society. The analogy is leading in the formation of a number of skills. The basis for the acquisition of new knowledge and skills development is the literacy of the individual. The article provides a theoretical overview of modern educational technologies and their significance for the literacy of the modern individual. Functional literacy is considered in terms of content. A parallel is drawn and the interrelationships between functional literacy and the competence approach are sought.

Five–Factor Theory provides a broad but largely blank template for causal personality research. Within Five–Factor Theory, there are three major categories of questions: (1) how do biological structures and functions lead to trait levels? (2) how do traits and the environment give rise to acquired psychological institutions? and (3) how do personality characteristics interact with specific situations to determine behaviours and reactions? Both practical and ethical issues complicate the search for the causes of trait change. Causal explanations of the development of characteristic adaptations are likely to be incomplete, because there are many different ways in which the same adaptation may be acquired. Studies of the determinants of behaviour are usually left to social, educational, or clinical psychologists—although personality psychologists may make distinctive contributions by emphasizing the role of the individual in selecting and creating situations. A causal understanding of the functioning of the personality system is possible through the integration of many lines of evidence, but it is likely to take a very long time. In the meanwhile, personality psychologists may fruitfully pursue the identification of practical causes by which individuals with a given set of traits can optimize their adaptation.
