651 | The professional difficulties of teachers and the educational difficulties of primary schoolchildren, updated by the regime of total distance learning caused by the spread of COVID-19, are highlighted. The author concludes that regulatory and cognitive UUD are insufficiently formed in children, which entailed the educational helplessness of the child. The reason for this is the lack of focus on educators on the formation of the ability to learn and the relationship between subject and universal educational activities. The author discusses why distance learning cannot be the basic form in elementary school: the harmful effects on children’s health, the destruction of general cultural skills, technological risks, the destruction of living contacts with adults and other children. The author shows how the didactic scheme of the lesson and the professional functions of the teacher have changed: from intermediary to organizational and methodological. The main features of the online lesson and the typical mistakes of teachers during its conduct are highlighted. It is shown how it is possible to attract parents to the implementation of different models of interaction with the child in home schooling. The author predicts how the traditional lesson will change due to the teachers getting the experience of intensive distance learning in elementary school, which didactic and methodological aspects will become relevant.

652 | The article presents the results of a study into differences in ideas of a conflict situation among boys and girls studying at a teacher training college and the correlation of ideas of a conflict situation and the level of self-esteem and claims among the students. The conducted research contributes to the solution of the actual for modern education problem of forming teachers’ conflict competence. The purpose of the article is to analyze the difference in ideas of a conflict situation among boys and girls and to outline the directions of psychological and pedagogical work on the formation of future teachers’ conflict competence. The research methodology was the analysis and generalization of scientific works and publications of native and foreign psychologists on the problems of ideas in psychology, conflict situation and conflict competence, self-esteem and claims, as well as the use of adequate psycho-diagnostic methods (projective, subjective scaling) for empirical study of students’ ideas of a conflict situation, self-esteem and claims and statistical methods (analysis of differences significance, correlation analysis) to study differences in ideas of a conflict situation among boys and girls and to study the correlation between ideas of a conflict situation and levels of self-esteem and claims. The results of an empirical study into students’ ideas of a conflict situation, self-esteem and claims of students demonstrate the absence of significant gender differences in the studied constructs. Statistical analysis of the data revealed differences in the ideas of a conflict situation among young men and women with different levels of self-esteem and claims and direct correlation between the studied indicators. It is proved that negative ideas of a conflict situation correlate with passive strategies of conflict behavior (evasion, concession) and low level of selfesteem and claims, and, on the contrary, positive ideas of a conflict situation correlate with active strategies of conflict behavior (compromise, cooperation, competition) and adequate level of self-esteem and claims. The results and conclusions presented in the article can be taken into account while training specialists at secondary vocational education institutions and can be used to develop a program to form conflict competence of students at a teacher training college, which can be implemented in the form of an elective course or psychological training. Keywords: ideas of a conflict situation, conflict and conflictological competence, level of selfesteem and claims | 788 | |||||
653 | The article considers the process of students’ critical thinking development through the English language resources. The authors highlight the importance of English in the developing of students’ universal competencies and their adaption to the current professional requirements. The article outlines the essential critical thinking skills that allow students to comprehend the received material, break down the material into its constituent parts, to distinguish relevant information from extraneous material, to synthesize, to infer and evaluate it. The educational foreign-language text is used as a means of students’ critical thinking development. The authors emphasize the text’s multifunction nature and its contribution into enhancement of students’ thinking activity. Despite the teachers’ keen interest in the process of critical thinking developing some authors prove the lack of methods and techniques promoting its growth. The article gives an overview of Bloom’s taxonomy and outlines its application in the educational process. The taxonomy is widely used to set educational objectives, to formulate motivating exercises and monitor headway in knowledge and skills developing. The study shows that not all textbooks and tasks are intended to enhance critical thinking skills. So, the authors analyzed their English textbook and changed their approach to work with the texts. The article describes the experience proving that new challenging tasks help students comprehend the received information, distinguish relevant facts, summarize and learn to evaluate. Keywords: foreign language, universal competencies, critical thinking, educational foreign-language text, Bloom’s taxonomy | 786 | |||||
654 | The problem of search of new methodological approaches, concepts, technologies for professional development of specialists, which is one of the important tasks of the system of higher professional education, is actualized. Attention is drawn to the need to attract students to participate in subject Olympiads as a resource for the professionalization of future teachers. The theoretical analysis and, to a greater extent, long-term observations of the author not only from the position of a University teacher, but also a specialist with experience in mentoring in the Olympic movement since 2010, as well as a survey of students allowed to determine the features of the teacher-mentor in this direction. The features of mentoring in the process of the Olympiad movement are considered. In accordance with the first feature, the mentor should contribute to the maximum disclosure of the individual talents of each participant. The second feature is connected with the fact that for the teacher mentoring is a productive way to improve their own competencies, as a variety of Olympiad tasks require high qualification of the team leader. It is emphasized that the qualification of the head-mentor is associated not only with erudition – knowledge of specific subjects, but also to a greater extent correlates with its focus on universal, common cultural values. This orientation points to the need to meet certain professional requirements and possess qualities that have universal values. The quality of the mentor, identified as a priority by the results of a survey of students – participants of the Olympiad. The third feature of mentoring in the Olympiad movement is considered from the position of related interests of at least three subjects of interaction: teacher-mentor, students and educational institutions. Features of interrelations of these subjects in the Olympic movement are specified. Taking into account the peculiarities of the organization of mentoring activities during the subject Olympiads allows us to speak about the successful support of professional development of future specialists. Properly organized mentoring activities specifies the vector direction and is focused on assisting future teachers in the acquisition of professionally significant qualities already in his student years.

655 | The current stage of world historical development is characterized by a tendency towards economic and cultural rapprochement between countries and peoples, which forms a certain social order in the use of functional capabilities of both native and foreign languages by carriers in order to implement strategically important life tasks: educational, industrial, everyday – household, scientific, cultural. Mastering the Russian language by a foreign native speaker should take into account the achievements of a number of branches of scientific knowledge: linguodidactics, general pedagogy and psychology, theories of speech and textual activity, the theory of linguistic personality, psycholinguistics, communication science, subject methodology (theory and practice of teaching Russian as a foreign language). Based on their own pedagogical experience in teaching Russian as a foreign language in the audience of native Chinese speakers, by systematizing and generalizing the existing developments, the authors propose an original concept, in which the types of secondary linguistic personalities are described, distinguished on the basis of the competence approach. In the course of the study, the comparative method, observation and the method of scientific description are involved. Mastering a foreign language marks a certain level of competence characteristics of an inauthentic speaker. The most “advanced” level of proficiency in Russian as a foreign language presupposes the conscious use of the resources of the language, expressed in the ability to correctly assess the situation in terms of relevance, ethics and communicative expediency of use. From these positions, a secondary linguistic personality is understood as a carrier who masters a foreign language in an authentic socio-cultural context and relying on it in order to implement the tasks of effective multicultural communication. At the same time, the carrier demonstrates a certain level of development of competencies: linguistic, linguocultural, intercultural and communicative. The results obtained in the course of the study allow us to say that in the study of the activity of a secondary linguistic personality aimed at mastering Russian as a foreign language, the most effective is the use of a competence-based approach. This approach allows us to study the secondary linguistic personality in the dynamics of the formation of its competence properties at each stage of development that we have identified: the formation of the secondary linguistic personality as a user of a foreign language, the formation of a system of special knowledge and skills in the foreign language in relation to the target language, professional knowledge of a foreign language. The presented typology of secondary linguistic personalities, highlighted on the basis of the competence-based approach, can be used in modern linguodidactics.

656 | The article is devoted to the description of thanatological competence as mastering thanatological knowledge for making professional decisions in psychological practice and education. The relevance of the development of thanatological competence in the training of practical psychologists is due to the socio-cultural, professional and individual psychological aspects, which are amplified due to the coronavirus pandemic. The author provides information on the foreign experience of implementing programs to improve the thanatological competence of specialists in helping professions (doctors, psychologists, teachers), provides data on their effectiveness and difficulties in their implementation. Domestic experience is represented by educational disciplines only in some higher educational institutions and private thanatotherapy courses. At the same time, a number of studies reveal the relevance of the development of thanatological competence among future psychologists and a request to include this issue in the educational program, taking into account the coverage of the cognitive, activity and value-motivational component of thanatological issues. The main difficulties in the implementation of courses and disciplines of thanatological orientation are not only the ethical aspects of covering the issues of death in the educational program, but also the insufficient representation of research on death, dying and loss in domestic science. In conclusion, the author outlines the prospects for the implementation of the thanatopsychological direction in science, practice and educati on.

657 | The difference in interpretations of definitions “sex”, “gender”, “sexdifferenceated”, “gendering” approaches, “traditional” and “egalitarian” directions in interaction of representatives of opposite gender is marked. The definition “gender” is observed as a model of social relationship between people of opposite sex, witch characterizes interactions in a family, personal interactions and social interactions in the basic institutions of society. There are not only physical differences between a man and a woman, a boy and a girl, not only socially fixed features of manhood and womanhood, but also equality in realization of everyday necessities and social roles without differentiation into “male” and “female”. The problem of university preparing of the future music teacher for gender education in the frame of school subject is identified. It is necessary in the process of analyzing of music images of classical and modern art to pay attention to pointing out gender potential of creations at the lessons of analyzing of music forms, at the music-pedagogical practicums on forming of the models of the pedagogical situations, as well as in the period of pedagogical practice at school. The example of the analyses of the music creations with the pupils shows the possibilities of the music lesson at school in the education of the culture of feelings of boys and girls, culture of their interaction in the format of joint learning.

658 | The article is devoted to the analysis of such social phenomenon as tolerance to children and adolescents with developmental disorders. It contains a fragment of research carried out by the authors during 2009–2017. Based on the analysis of the answers given by representatives of three socio-demographic groups (pupils in secondary schools, students of higher educational institutions, adults) to the author’s questionnaires their attitude to children with disabilities from four categories was studied: children with mental retardation, cerebral palsy, blind and visually impaired, deaf and hard of hearing. Adult respondents express less tolerant attitude to children with disabilities, in comparison with students and schoolchildren: 45.9 % object to teaching their children together with a child with developmental problems, 41.2 % speak out for separate education, 33.9 % object to joint extracurricular activities. 82.5 % of students and 76.6 % of adults are not ready to provide voluntary, even temporary, assistance. A comparative analysis of interaction with them in various spheres and situations is described. In general, the studied groups are characterized by differences in the answers to the questions, suggesting and not suggesting personal involvement in the situation of interaction with such a child, more pronounced in the responses of adult respondents. The differences in the level of tolerance, as in different social situations of interaction and in relation to different categories of children with disabilities were obtained.

662 | The active nature of modern higher education today urgently requires the introduction into its content of the formation of students’ reflective competencies, which can be said as an important direction of modernization of education in general. This applies, in particular, to teaching a foreign language, where the use of interactive technologies also becomes an essential educational resource, when, under conditions of constant updating of information, its reflexive generalization becomes so necessary. In this regard, the use of interactive technologies by students in the teaching process of a foreign language from the point of view of their reflexive readiness for this becomes especially relevant, since students do not yet have sufficient ability to identify cause-and-effect relationships in the linguistic aspects of the language being studied. Hence, the formulation of the problem of the development of students’ reflexive readiness to use interactive technologies in the teaching process of a foreign language is conditioned by the need to update the university education system, where there are certain contradictions. This concerns, for example, the requirements for solving the problem of expanding the student’s reflective activity and the insufficient methodological development of the qualitative introduction of reflection into the process of teaching a foreign language, taking into account the use of interactive technologies. In this regard, this article is devoted to understanding the methodological aspects of the reflexive skills of university students, in particular, through interactive technologies. Thus, the purpose of this work was to consider the aspects of the development of students’ reflective readiness to use interactive technologies in the teaching process of a foreign language.

665 | Introduction. Today, the quality of education is determined not by acquired knowledge, skills, but by the opportunities for developing the spiritual and creative potential of the personality of participants in the educational process. Rethinking the criteria for assessing the quality of education in Russian education at the beginning of the twenty-first century reveals the conditions conducive to the development of creative abilities of a person in pedagogy of art. Changing the criteria for the quality of education leads to changes in the goals of education, as well as determines the need for understanding the process and the results of pedagogical activity not only at the level of teaching methods for the subject, but at the level of general pedagogical approaches focused on personality development. The purpose of the study is to identify participants in the educational process in the process of teaching composition and color science, to develop and test in practice a series of tasks aimed at developing the personality of students. Material and methods. In the course of the study, we used a set of methods. The main theoretical provisions and conclusions of the study are based on the analysis, synthesis and systematization of material on the problem of goals and values of pedagogy of art, the development of creative abilities of a person. Empirical research methods (studying the products of students’ activities, a pedagogical experiment) were used during the testing of a series of tasks aimed at developing the personality of participants in the educational process. Results and discussion. The pedagogy of art determines the harmonious development and formation of the spiritual and creative personality of the participants in the educational process (student and teacher) as the goal and value of personality-oriented education. In pedagogy of art, a personality-oriented approach is important to combine with a semantic approach that focuses students on understanding the meaning, meaning of artistic expressiveness – learning the language of visual art. Conсlusion. The analysis of theoretical sources, as well as the results of testing tasks on the basics of composition and color science, revealed that the development of creative abilities of a person provides the following conditions: 1. The personal significance of the content of education, the value motives of learning. 2. Providing pedagogical support for the student’s personal development. 3. The combination of a personality-oriented approach with a semantic approach in teaching composition, color science.

666 | The relevance and heuristic value of the article lies in the fact that the materials presented in it will give reason to researchers, scientific supervisors of graduate students, organizers of science and the graduate students themselves to understand how to ensure the highest productivity of training highly qualified personnel, to increase the prestige of research activities. The problem of a modern graduate student is not that he is not able to generalize well-known materials and that he cannot offer something new in his field of knowledge, but how to check the effectiveness of what is offered as organically «fit» theory into experimental designs. Simply put, how to build a relevant experiment. It is in this that the main value of the materials presented in the article is seen, which will help the subjects of this process most reasonably approach the choice of approaches to the organization of postgraduate training, methods and techniques of experimental research, building its content and presenting the results. The subject of the work is the mechanisms (approaches, methods, means) of studying the readiness of graduate students for research activities in the context of scenario-event organization of the educational process. The novelty of the work is that it shows how one of the main components of the productivity of postgraduate training – readiness for research activities can be qualimetrically evaluated by measuring three components: the level of selfrealization; motivation and formation of relevant competencies. The practical significance of the work is seen in the application of scenario approach models to the preparation of graduate students and the incorporation of various «events» into these models, in the systematic construction of the main stages of the experimental work and the interpretation of its results for each of the measured parameters.

667 | The problems of professional orientation of children of primary school age are considered. For the introduction to the course of the studied problems, various views and approaches to the definition of the concept of “career guidance” and its components are described. The results of studying the level of knowledge about the professions of primary school students in St. Petersburg are presented. It is determined that the semantic content of the concept of “profession” for students is abstract and unclear, and also the lack of awareness of children in general about the world of professions is established. To obtain reliable and complete information, the results of the responses to the questionnaires of primary school students and their parents are compared. Based on the obtained research data, it is concluded that it is difficult for the participants of the experiment – younger schoolchildren to imagine themselves in the professional future. Attention is focused on the need to improve and systematize the work on the formation of complete knowledge of primary school students about professions through the implementation of an appropriate program in the course of primary school education. This program, based on the full interaction of adults and children, is focused not only on expanding children’s knowledge about the world of professions, but also fully taking into account their motives and interests, which ultimately can affect the quality of the educational process.

668 | The relevance of the article is due to the fact that cognitive learning theories are the most recognized in modern domestic didactics. They act as a psychological and pedagogical substantiation of didactic systems that implement the values of cognition and the development of students’ cognitive abilities, when training is based on the direct experience of students, its expansion in the course of search, research, active development of the world. The following positions are proposed as prerequisites for the development of cognitive didactics in the context of personality development in the era of digitalization of education: the need to take into account the directions of transformation of the higher education system: educational goals, forms of education, teaching methods, management tools; focus on solving the general goal of transforming the educational process at the present stage of development of higher education – on the generation of knowledge; the use of the regularities of functioning and the formation of mechanisms of cognition of students in the process of realizing the systemforming goal of cognitive didactics – the effective cognitive organization of a person; generation of professionally oriented knowledge in the context of the transition to the construction of holistic life-pedagogical situations within the framework of the situational approach as a theoretical and methodological strategy focused on solving cognitive problems; the use of cognitive tools in the process of implementing the situational-event mechanism of the formation of the personality structures of students’ cognition within the framework of the student’s educational activity.

669 | The paper studies some aspects of the formation of universal competencies (UC) in the course of theoretical physics for students of pedagogical universities. As an example, a fragment of the course of classical mechanics is selected, associated with finding the law of motion of the body in Newton’s formulation. Four types of tasks are considered, which differ mainly in the nature of the time dependence of the resulting force. When solving the problems of the module “Classical Mechanics” of a course in theoretical physics, knowledge from mathematical courses (Mathematical Analysis, Differential Equations) is actively used, which stimulates the students’ analytical and creative intellectual activity. The relevance of the topic is that the course of theoretical physics combines the disciplines of the natural science and mathematical cycles, and it is important to be able to fully use the knowledge accumulated by students to reach a new, integral level of understanding of educational information. The novelty of this approach is that it makes it possible to simultaneously form the scientific, research thinking of students; mastering the teaching methods of physical and mathematical disciplines (which is important for future teachers); to develop the creative potential of students when choosing a particular decision algorithm. The article shows how, when solving selected problems, students form a set of competencies of the UС-1 group.

670 | Changes in the life of modern society entailed a violation in the preexisting interaction of school, family and society. The rapid change in the socio-economic conditions of society to a certain extent changes the interaction of the subjects of the educational system in the upbringing of children and youth, which is manifested in the complication of responsibility in making pedagogical decisions, caused by the increased relationship between those who participate in this upbringing. The problem is compounded by the fact that in the Kyrgyz Republic the issues of interaction between schools, families and society have not been sufficiently studied both theoretically and practically. Based on the foregoing, the aim of the article is to determine the content of the interaction of school, family and society and to identify the further implementation of this aspect in the training of teachers. In this study, we used such methods as: theoretical analysis of philosophical, psychological and pedagogical literature, questioning, observation, conversation, study of documentation and experience of educational organizations of the Kyrgyz Republic, mathematical methods). All these methods were used to study the state of the theory and practice of interaction between school, family and society in the current socio-economic and sociocultural situation. The study involved 231 students (J. Balasagyn KNU and the Kyrgyz-Russian Academy of Education (KRAO)). Of these, 114 students of 1–4 courses in the control group (KRAO). 117 students of 1–4 courses in the experimental group (KNU). Studying the problem of interaction between the school, family and society suggests that modern students of pedagogical directions of universities of the Kyrgyz Republic need special effective training as future teachers for partnerships with parents and representatives of society, where relations of responsibility, mutual trust and awareness of the coherence of goals should prevail, tasks and content in the upbringing of a growing person. For the effective implementation of the relationship of family and social education, a special course and a special system for training students of pedagogical specialties of higher educational institutions are offered. The results of the study show that the problem of interaction between the school, family and society today remains one of the important aspects of the activities of universities, as it is associated with assisting the future teacher in managing the joint activities of the school, family and society in order to combine the efforts of cooperation between the subjects of education.

671 | Formation of economic competencies is the most important factor in the educational process in the specialty of “Economics”, profile “Finance and Credit”. The article discusses the problems of building competence in the collection and analysis of baseline data necessary for calculating economic and socio-economic indicators, which is associated with the lack of correlation between theoretical and practical blocks, as well as the effect of social stereotypes in society that determine the attitude to the economy as a science, which develops in a different plane than real life. We consider it necessary to use a systematic approach to the formation of the aforementioned competencies in the educational process, based on the progressive formation of knowledge that allows developing skills and forming skills brought to automatism. The given examples of tasks are actually used in the framework of teaching the discipline “Banking” in order to form economic competencies. The practical orientation of the tasks forms the ability to navigate in the economic situation and make decisions aimed at increasing income. In the recommendations on the organization of the educational process, emphasis is placed on the constant updating of information and economic indicators, since it is precisely during training in economic specialties that the relevance of information allows quite often to correlate your conclusions and arguments on the situation in the country, economic and banking sectors.

672 | The article represents the results of the study of the relationship between life values and components of psychological time of students from Russia and Japan. In the course of globalization, there is a process of active exchange of cultural experience, which is supported by high dynamics and erosion of cultural values. That is why the study of subjective (psychological) time in relation to life values is becoming increasingly relevant. The purpose of the study is to identify and compare the specifics of the relationship between the components of psychological time and life values among students from Russia and Japan (N = 540). The results of the correlation analysis suggest a different structure of the relationship between psychological time and life values of Russian and Japanese students, which is most likely due to cultural characteristics. The results of the study confirm the strong relationship between the motivational and value sphere of the individual and psychological time, despite the globalization processes. The more expressed the desire of young people for something, the more the motivational and volitional sphere is formed (regardless of the specific focus of motives and values), the more positively balanced the time per-spective looks. On the contrary, the focus on past failures negatively affects the motivation of young people, actually blocking their desires and intentions (this is especially relevant for Russian students). Recommendations on the use of results in the educational process are given.

673 | The article considers the state of modern pre-school education in Russia and Mongolia. It is indicated that in both countries, preschool education of children is a rightful and integral part of the state system of general education, which assumes the continuity of the educational process with ensuring a harmonious transition of children from preschool to primary school education. The article focuses on the goals and objectives of the education of children of senior preschool age, formed in the normative documents of Russia and Mongolia, based on personality-oriented pedagogy. The importance of understanding the current tasks of preschool childhood in both state educational systems is noted not from the point of view of preparing five- and six-year-olds for systematic education in school, but from the point of view of forming a viable personality and intrinsic value of preschool age. A comparative analysis of the current state of pre-school education in Russia and Mongolia has shown that both systems focus on the needs and age opportunities of the child, with the right to choose institutions, programs, forms of activity, methods of education and upbringing. It is concluded that the system of pre-school education in preschool institutions in Mongolia is at the stage of development, while in Russia there is sufficient experience to spread and enrich the educational system as a whole.

The issue is addressed by analyzing the survey data on learning foreign languages online via the MS Teams at the University of Tyumen. The specific objective of the study is to juxtapose the MS Teams tools with the parameters of organizing classes in foreign languages such as interactivity, multimedia, the implementation of the learner-centered approach, the teaching and learning materials used, teaching methods and forms, the creation of an authentic environment and the formation of various types of speech activity. In addition, the study defines the most significant MS Teams functions, in particular, storing educational materials, having feedback, video communication (online-meetings), working in teams and channels, MS Teams tests, working with co-editing files etc. The author identifies the difficulties that arise (namely technical, psychological, physiological, methodological difficulties and problems in perceiving information), their possible causes and ways to overcome them. The article ends with conclusions on how MS Teams integrates into the foreign languages learning process.

675 | In this article, the authors consider a psychological and pedagogical problem – the possibility of electronic control-monitoring of the dynamics of the development of cognitive abilities of students. At the same time, the cognitive abilities of a person from a psychological point of view are understood as an integral system construction. The cognitive sphere of an individual, according to the authors of this article, is not limited to intelligence, but it is its fundamental component, as well as cognitive abilities, having their own specific functions, form a single system with individual psychological characteristics. This is the methodological position of the authors of the article. Special attention is drawn to the conceptual construct of the text presented. It is emphasized that an interdisciplinary approach to research can provoke terminological inaccuracy. In this regard, the authors pay close attention to the categorical apparatus, the correct interpretation of terms that provide the semantic basis for interdisciplinary research. The article substantiates the need to develop a comprehensive computer program. It is noted that a complex software can provide electronic monitoring and correction of the values of integral psychological indicators of the formation of cognitive functional connections in the psychological structure of the cognitive sphere of students’ personality in real-time mode.

676 | The present psychosemantic study investigates visual perception of English iconic (imitative) words by Russian L2 learners. The Lexical decision task was conducted to collect the data. The participants (N = 106) were visually presented with three type of experimental stimuli: 32 iconic words divided into four groups according to their de-iconization stage (8 words per group), 32 non-iconic words and 32 non-words constructed according to English phonotactic rules. The pre-selection of iconic vocabulary into four groups was performed by the method of diachronic evaluation of the imitative lexicon. The linguistic status of iconic words was controlled for in the Oxford English Dictionary (OED), the 3d edition (section “Etimology”). The stimuli were presented visually in random order under a strict time limit. The parameter under investigation – the stage of de-iconization of an iconic word – refers to the degree of preservation of original iconic (according to Pierce) associative connection between form and meaning. De-iconization takes place under the influence of two system factors: regular phonetic changes (“distortion” of a word form) and semantic shifts (“expansion”, broadening of a word’s meaning). The findings of the study revealed that the participants need a different amount of time to recognize 1) iconic and non-iconic words, 2) iconic words at different stages of de-iconization. The least de-iconized words are characterized by slower recognition time and higher error rates than non-iconic words and highly de-iconized words, which makes them similar to non-words. It signifies a delay in cognitive recognition of these most “vivid” iconic words. Word recognition impairment may also be accounted for by the interference of the expressiveness parameter and by the semantic processing. It is assumed that the use of iconic words in language teaching contributes to vocabulary learning. This assumption is not fully supported by the empirical data of our study since deiconization is an important variable in psycholinguistic studies of this kind. The results of our research enable us to gain a better understanding of cognitive mechanisms of the perception of iconicity.

678 | This article presents the process of development of pedagogical support of visually impaired learners with multiple severe developmental disorders (exemplified by deafblind learners), including visually impaired learners in Russia and Siberia, starting prior to the revolution of 1917 until the present day. Experience has proven it is essential to know the history of pedagogical support of visually impaired learners with multiple severe developmental disorders to gain a better understanding of the current status of the subject. This pedagogical research allows you to trace the dynamics of the formation of special institutions in chronological order from the beginning to the present time. The establishment of such institutions took place on charitable basis without state financial support. The role of the All-Russian Society of the Blind in organizing the employment of blind adults and current status of rehabilitation centers are shown. The article considers the emergence of scientific schools and their role in the development of the content and methods of teaching blind and deafblind children. Pedagogical and typhlopedagogical developments that occurred many years ago leave a significant mark in science. It is emphasized that the interest of science in teaching the blind was born very slowly. Only by the middle of the twentieth century a network of state special institutions for blind and deafblind children has appeared. Some prominent scientists and teachers who have made a valuable contribution to typhlopedagogy are noted.

679 | The article discusses the concept of linguistic and cultural competence and its role in modern intercultural communication. An overview of scientific literature on the problem of the development of linguistic and cultural competence is provided. A list of basic cultural units used for the development of the linguistic and cultural competence is presented as well. It is proposed to use Chinese idioms chengyu in order to develop students’ competence due to the fact that they contain information about the aesthetics, ethics, culture and history of the Chinese. The author also suggests employing mind mapping as it significantly facilitates the learning process due to an integrated, radiant, organized way of presentation. The article provides an example of a step-by-step analysis of a chengyu 万里无云 – wànlǐ wúyún – cloudless conducted in the Chinese language lesson (3rd year students, Chinese as a second foreign language). In addition, the article contains a list of 11 most frequently used idioms on the topic “Weather” which can be further used in Chinese language lessons. The main advantages of the method suggested in the article for the development of linguistic and cultural competence are outlined in the end of the article. It is concluded that the linguistic and cultural analysis of Chinese idioms chengyu along with mind-mapping can serve as a way to develop linguistic and cultural competence, as well as contribute to the development of both individual and collaborative research skills.

680 | While we live in times of anthropological crisis caused by spread of technologies which do not match to people’s body experience (V. A. Podoroga), only the insufficient number of psychological studies acknowledge the phenomenon of disembodiment. Some researchers refer to it as the bodiless state, dematerialization or anonymity of a user in cyberspace. In this study we suggest a theoretical construct of disembodiment on the Internet as the effect of normative use of information technologies. It is based on the conception by the British existential psychologist R. Laing. His formula of the self: self ↔ (body-other), self ↔ (body-world), which describes a clinical way of unembodied being, broadly corresponds to both the fact of technological disembodiment and a technological way of disembodied being in Internet addiction with its inherent structuring and a non-normative border in the core of the self. We compare the disembodiment on the Internet, which leads to confusion on the boundary between the self and nonself, to the framework consequence of the normative use of information technologies in a model by E. I. Rasskazova, V. A. Emelin and A. Sh. Tkhostov – changes of psychological borders. We come to a conclusion that In the digital age the borders are set in the experience of two selves. The real self is genuinely based on the body and the virtual self isn’t, to the extent when the very expression «boundaries of a body» becomes meaningless. Indefinitely expanded blurry borders correspond to the virtualization of a user’s self. The user’s beliefs that other people and information objects are available and controllable are symptoms of changes of borders and can also describe the disembodiment. The disembodiment is also characterized by feeling of disengagement from the body, sense of security on account of anonymity, deficit of reality of the self and incompleteness and illusiveness of the online existence.

682 | The importance of the subject “Natural Science Picture of the World” is discussed for students of humanitarian faculties, the main task of which is the formation of a natural science worldview. Given the psychophysiological characteristics of humanities students, practical training methods are proposed for the successful formation of a scientific worldview. The most effective and scientifically based practical methods and approaches are given that complement the lecture course and increase the degree of students’ independent work. Using the proposed methods allows us to determine the degree of formation of general cultural competencies among students. Given the humanitarian orientation of students, it can be assumed that one of the effective methods of practical independent work is the structuring of the material studied by compiling integrative tables. Turning to integrative tables, which systematize natural science knowledge in certain sections corresponding to the material being studied, at the same time, the most famous cultural and historical events related to this period of time are given, students have an increase in the relationship between objects, complex systemic laws occur in the process of integrating knowledge. The use of integrative tables helps to form a worldview based on an understanding of the connections between nature, man, his ideas and the development of human civilization.

684 | The article deals with the process of changing the vector of state policy in the field of foreign language learning in the 30s of the XX century After the October Revolution, they stopped the study of a foreign language because they regarded it as a relic of the past, an antagonistic society with a pronounced and irreconcilable class inequality. However, in 1923, Nadezhda Konstantinovna Krupskaya denied the need to study Esperanto on a national scale in her article “Teaching Foreign Languages” and described the practical significance, main goal and priority method of teaching a foreign language and more than that her own position about the role of foreign languages, thereby laying the foundation for its study for many decades. The 1927 became a further important step in the history of teaching a foreign language in the country of the Soviets. The People’s Commissariat for Education of the RSFSR adopted a special decree on the study of a foreign language in all city schools of the second level, starting a large campaign “Foreign languages to the masses”. It considers a number of resolutions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union from 1929 and 1932, aimed at strengthening the study of a foreign language in all city schools, technical schools and universities, and Factory Seven-Years.

685 | In the objective processes of integration and unification in the field of education, each national system relies on the existing potential and accumulated domestic experience. The purpose of this article is to reconstruct and generalize the experience of the Far Eastern authorities in reforming teacher education and teacher training institutions during the Civil War. The main source for writing the work was archival materials stored in the funds of the Russian State Historical Archive of the Far East. The Ministry of Public Education of the Provisional Siberian Government has repeatedly raised the issues of transformation of the teacher training system, but no substantive bill was adopted. Since 1919, Ministry of National Education of the government of A.V. Kolchak dealt with education, and this period is associated with the increased decentralization of management and the introduction of the institute of commissioners. Since the end of 1920, the regional governments operating in the Far East formed a policy towards pedagogical educational institutions under the influence of the ideas of the People’s Commissariat of Education. Regional authorities, despite their desire to democratize governance institutions, have not been able to overcome the inertia of accumulated problems in the field of education. The legislative activity of the Ministry of Public Education of the Provisional Siberian Government was ineffective and short-term. With the transition of the Far Eastern territories under the jurisdiction of local government bodies, regional departments of public education followed the path of reforming individual pedagogical educational institutions. On the path of the reform, the government of the Far Eastern Republic has moved a little further than the Siberian Government. The reforms were based on the soviet principles of school development. As the general crisis intensified, the local authorities took less and less into account the opinions of the professional pedagogical community, and more and more often the changes were of a prescriptive nature. As a result of ill-considered reconstructions of teachers’ institutes and seminaries, the system of teacher education that required reforms but was well-coordinated and developing, was destroyed, replaced with ineffective transitional and limited forms that cost significant organizational and financial efforts, and the planned reforms were not implemented properly.

686 | The quantitative growth of children with disabilities progresses every year. Approximately 15 % of the total number of students have certain health limitations, including disabilities. This is due to both biologizing (genetic predisposition) and sociologizing (pedagogical neglect) factors. Children with disabilities often tend to be isolated from society. This is facilitated by being in special schools and institutions separate from healthy children, where they receive not only upbringing, but also education. Despite the fact that at present the situation has partially changed, more and more parents prefer to send their “special” children to general education institutions, children with disabilities are still poorly involved in the normal process of life of the school community. A delay in the mental development of the child’s personality causes disorders in the field of communication and cognition, and can lead to deformation of their social and domestic skills and emotional-volitional sphere. A child with mental retardation often exhibits such emotional states as feelings of fear, resentment, shame, and there are unreasonable bouts of anger. At the same time, the self-esteem of this category of children is also distorted. All these factors can contribute to the emergence of pathological forms of behavior. Nevertheless, the process of social integration (adaptation) of children with disabilities, specifically those with mental retardation is extremely necessary. And the most suitable social environment for this is the general educational environment, as well as centers for social adaptation and additional education.

687 | The study is devoted to the urgent problem of identifying psychological factors for pregnancy maintenance in women who are pregnant having special somatic conditions (HIV infection). During the research a comparative analysis of indicators of the psycho-emotional state, the motives for maintaining pregnancy, women’s attitude towards themselves and their perceived health status between groups of women with physiologically normal pregnancy and with the threatened miscarriage was conducted. The psychological factors of maintaining a healthy pregnancy in women with HIV infection were established. At the level of clinical indicators, these were the absence of abortions and missed pregnancies in medical history. At the level of social indicators, the factor was a registered marriage as a marital status. At the level of psychological indicators – the absence of depressive mood, of high aggressiveness and frustration; acceptance of the pregnancy; rejection of the motive for pregnancy maintenance characterized by the desire to achieve a new social status and satisfy the need for love, support, attention and care; high value of oneself and high value of the child himself/herself; high assessment of the health status and the bodily resources for healing. The results can be used to develop a differentiated program to prevent the development of the threated miscarriage in women with HIV infection for antenatal clinics of maternity hospitals and center for AIDS prevention and control.

688 | A survey of university teachers (130 people) from various study areas was conducted to identify the prevailing attitudes and judgments about the implementation and prospects for the development of various formats of higher education in an unstable epidemiological situation and changing socioeconomic conditions. The authors attempted to analyze the factors that determined the survey results and the challenges of creating conditions ensuring the optimal implementation of various formats in a modern university. The successful experience of the university faculty in a number of projects in the development of the digital educational environment at the international and all-Russian level is described. Inferior learning outcomes in the online format in comparison with face-to-face and blended format were reported by the respondents. The survey revealed an optimistic view of the teaching community regarding the prospects for the development of a blended format. Blended and face-to-face formats were preferred by the majority of respondents, regardless of their teaching experience at the university. Questions about the level of online education, effective tools for assessing its quality, measures to encourage online work turned out to be the most “sensitive”, which was reflected in the significant proportion of evasive answer to the above questions. Higher education ecosystems often lack professionals specializing in instructional design, data analysis, educational program development, educational technologies, etc., which adversely affects the quality of educational products.

689 | The problem of organizing mentoring is analyzed as a mechanism for the implementation of lifelong adult education, as a mechanism for in-company training of employees, which allows them to be fixed and adapted in the profession. Mentoring is considered as a joint activity of an experienced teacher and a young specialist, aimed at the professional and personal development of all participants in the activity. A comparative analysis of the organization of mentoring is made from the position of a teacher’s closed and open professionalism, taking into account criteria such as: purpose, content, nature of interaction, forms of collaboration, type of professional samples, results. Various options for implementing the practice of mentoring are considered: supervision, mentoring, coaching, tutoring. Given these options, different types of mentors have been identified that can accompany a young specialist, not only for adaptation, but also for immersion in the innovative space of an educational organization. The conclusion is drawn about the need to study the effectiveness of different mentoring practices and study its contents, forms, results and effects, including the search for mechanisms for co-organizing approaches to mentoring in the logic of a teacher’s closed and open professionalization.

691 | The article focuses on the effectiveness of traditional assessment tools applied in higher education for teaching generation Z, considering the fact that the new generation of students has its own characteristics, including increased anxiety and lack of long-term forecasting skills. These features, combined with the intuitive use of the Internet, reduce the effectiveness of traditional written tests, giving way to more interactive methods. The authors suggest a number of modern tools suitable for the formative and summative assessment in both classroom and remote learning, highly demanded during the pandemic: Quizlet multimedia cards, Learningapps small interactive modules, the Edpuzzle platform for video files, online testing services of Kahoot! and Class Marker, as well as Mentimeter interactive presentations service. The indisputable advantage of the listed applications is their intuitiveness, and therefore they do not require long training for using them, and they also can reduce the time spent on the preparation and evaluation of students’ tests. The proposed interactive assessment tools imply an active use of smartphones by students and have a positive effect on their motivation, help them form a proper idea of their own progress and integrate digital technologies into the educational process, which in itself is already a priority for the modern education system.

692 | Modern educational realities are such that the teacher must be ready for constant self-improvement, self-education in the field of professional activity. Changes in the content, technological, evaluative components of the educational process require the teacher to update and refresh the methodology of teaching the subject, which can cause certain difficulties. The purpose of the study is to determine the list of methodological difficulties for mathematics teachers and their causes based on the diagnosis of methodological competencies. To achieve this goal, both theoretical and empirical research methods were used. In the course of the research carried out by the authors, a number of methodological competencies of a mathematics teacher were identified – components of his professional competence: he is able to design the results of teaching mathematics in accordance with the current educational standards; is able to design the content of teaching mathematics, focused on the achievement of educational results by various categories of students; is able to design educational and cognitive activities of students in the process of teaching mathematics in accordance with modern requirements and on the basis of variable forms of its organization; is able to objectively assess the educational results of students’ mathematical training. The level of formation of these competencies was diagnosed through diagnostic work, self-assessment and expert assessment of the teacher’s activities. A number of methodological difficulties that teachers experience in the implementation of the process of teaching mathematics in modern conditions were identified. Possible reasons for the identified difficulties are identified and some recommendations for their elimination are indicated.

693 | The article examines the role of image for training future teachers-choreographers at the Institute of Culture and Arts. The modern period of Russian development has indicated the necessity of updating the key priorities in the system of professional training, including the sphere of culture and art. Modernization of education inevitably results in updating of teachers’ qualifications with an accent on universal and generic skills including both professional and pedagogical competencies which are important for any teacher to function efficiently, including teachers of choreography. Hence, the professional image as an important qualification of any teacher becomes not only a significant but also marketable professional skill that can greatly increase the pedagogical effectiveness. At the same time, developing a professional image is a long and difficult process and it is the product of self-knowledge and self-development. In this regard, developing a positive image of a person becomes an urgent problem not only for the politics and business, but also in teachers’ activity, including the teachers of culture and art, whose task is to train highly qualified and competitive specialists. The characteristics of the concepts “image”, “professional image”, “image structure” are introduced. It is shown that image reflects a certain style of new social behavior and it can directly influence the training of future teachers-choreographers contributing to its success. The article presents the empirical research results concerning the role of image in the professional activity of teachers of choreographic disciplines who train future teacherschoreographers.

699 | The article addresses the relevance of language training in the system of engineering education due to the change of modern educational paradigm towards the necessity of training a competitive specialist with a high degree of readiness to interact in the international professional environment. The analysis of the peculiarities and problems of language training in a technical university is the subject of a great number of scientific papers; however, this issue remains topical due to the permanent modernization of higher education and the improvement of training models and technologies. The aim of the article is to conduct scientific and methodological analysis of the processes of organization and management of language training, which had a unique format of experimental training at Tomsk Polytechnic University. The beginning of the “language boom” reforms can be considered as 1998, when the Comprehensive Program for Intensification of Foreign Language Training of Engineering Students was launched. By now this program can be the subject to analysis, as it has a 20- year history of evolution and by now there is no comprehensive description of the dynamics of language development in the scientific literature. The scientific and methodological analysis, including authors’ own pedagogical observations, is aimed at describing the five stages of language training development, identifying the causes that were the catalysts of change, evaluating measures to eliminate problems and contradictions, and measures that contribute to a more comfortable and effective environment for further development and formation. The authors describe and characterize in more detail the processes that are relatively innovative for the university system of language training. Adaptive language training instructional practices for undergraduates and elective courses of individual student choice have been considered as such processes. The authors conclude with their arguments regarding potential measures that could bring the situation to the level of qualitative changes and improvement of language training in other technical higher education institutions.

700 | The urgency of the search and testing of new forms of additional professional education of teachers of small rural small-scale educational organizations, in particular, the format of the Summer Pedagogical School is proved. The generalized characteristics of materials and research methods are present. The historical prerequisites of the format, the origins of which were found in teachers’ congresses and courses for rural teachers in Russia in the 19th century, are substantiated, as well as the fundamental provisions due to the traditions of Russian education. The theoretical-methodological and scientific-practical foundations of the content of the educational program and the main educational modules have been determined. The central line of the educational program of the summer pedagogical school is noted – this is continuous education as a way of professional and personal formation and development of a rural teacher. Examples of topics and block structuring of educational programs from the experience of summer schools in different years are given. The priority educational technologies and features of the content-organizational order of the summer pedagogical school are presented. Some conclusions about the effectiveness of the format of the summer pedagogical school are formulated. The material of the research was the works of: Russian educators of the 19th – early 20th centuries; modern researchers of the socio-cultural educational situation in rural areas of Russia, a rural small-numbered small educational organization, the professional activities of a rural teacher; domestic and foreign specialists in the field of continuing teacher education; professional training, formation and development of rural school teachers. The sources are the results of the laboratory of the theory and practice of rural school development at Petrozavodsk State University, the Karelian Institute for Education Development and the Association of Rural Schools of the Republic of Karelia, on the initiative and with the support of which the LPS was tested. Accordingly, the main research methods were historical and pedagogical analysis, theoretical analysis, experimental and practical work.
