Gnatyshina Ekaterina Viktorovna, Zhelnin Eduard Vladimirovich The structure and content of legal literacy of students // Pedagogical Review. 2024. Issue 5 (57). P. 64-72

The article deals the theoretical foundations of the concepts of “legal literacy” and “legal literacy of the student.” The results of the analysis of the structure and content of the studied concept are presented the following definitions: regulatory grounds, categorical and conceptual apparatus associated with this definition. And so, as it is based on the theoretical analysis and empirical data, an updated wording of this definition is proposed. The particular attention is paid to the relationship between legal literacy and the leading trends in modern education, and so we can see the consequence of it - it is the education of citizenship and the comprehensive development of the individual. Based on the analysis of the function of legal literacy, the structure of “legal literacy of students” is proposed. The content of each component of the structure (cognitive, motivation-target, activity and behavioral) in their relationship and interdependence is presented in detail. So as a result, we have the conclusion that “legal literacy” contributes to the formation of legal awareness of the individual, which is the foundation of the legal culture of the individual and society as a whole. The modern education is aimed at the forming of a versatile, competitive, patriotic personality. That is why legal literacy should be present at all levels of education.

The article is devoted to the study of the motivational sphere of students of various forms of higher education. It is noted that the features of the motivational sphere significantly affect the satisfaction of students with the learning process and, ultimately, the realization of their personal potential in the chosen types of professional activities. The purpose of this study is to study the motivational sphere of students’ personality and to identify the degree of satisfaction - dissatisfaction of actual basic needs: material, security, interpersonal relations, respect and self-actualization, as well as to determine the prevailing type of motivation (success or failure) taking into account the form of education. The study involved 173 second-year students (26 boys and 147 girls): 85 students of the Nizhny Novgorod State Pedagogical University named after K. Minin of the correspondence department (NSPU) of the faculties of psychology and pedagogy (41 people), physical culture and sports (21 people), humanities (23 people); 89 students of the Lobachevsky State University of Nizhny Novgorod: 43 full-time and part-time students of the Faculty of Social Sciences (UNN) and 46 full-time students of this faculty (UNN). Students are between 18 and 25 years old. To diagnose the actual basic needs: in financial situation, in security, in interpersonal relations, in respect, in self-realization, we used the method “Hierarchy of Needs”, modified by I. A. Akindinova, which allows us to determine the level of their satisfaction. To diagnose the prevailing type of motivation, the method “Motivation for Success and Fear of Failure” (EOR) by A. A. Reanwas used. It should be noted that the majority of students in all study groups are at the level of partial satisfaction of needs. Significant differences between groups were found in satisfaction with interpersonal relationships, needs for respect, and needs for self-actualization. A higher level of motivation for success was found in part-time and part-time students, compared to full-time students. The results obtained allow us to conclude that students of different forms of education differ in the level of satisfaction of basic needs and the prevailing type of motivation. At the same time, the specificity of satisfying a particular need is related to the social situation of students’ development.

Keywords: motivational sphere, full-time, part-time and part-time students, satisfaction of basic needs according to A. Maslow, motivation of success – failure

Akimish Dina Egimbaykyzy, Brel Elena Yuryevna Environmental volunteer activity in universities of Kazakhstan (on the example of L. Gumilev Eurasian National University) // Pedagogical Review. 2024. Issue 5 (57). P. 167-176

One of the necessary conditions and prerequisites for the development of modern youth is socionatural interaction in the system “man – society – nature”, which includes a change in the image of nature that has developed in society and the construction of a new paradigm in which the regulator of relations between man and nature is ecological volunteer activity. While examining psychological and pedagogical literature on environmental volunteering, the authors discuss the origins of the term “volunteering” and its key characteristics. The authors conducted a comparative analysis of the concepts of “volunteer”, “volunteering”, “volunteer activity”, “environmental volunteering” based on Kazakhstan, Russian and foreign theoretical experience. After reviewing the literature, it was found that “volunteering” and “volunteerism” are essentially the same, so the authors of this study choose to use the term “volunteering” because it is more widely recognized internationally. By examining different perspectives on volunteering, the study was able to define and emphasize the main qualities of a volunteer as someone who participates in volunteer activities. Environmental volunteering is considered by the authors in the same way as a method of educational work with students of a higher educational institution, during the development of which social activity is formed, such qualities as justice, tolerance, kindness, friendliness and diligence are brought up. In turn, cultural and moral education develops, a certain civic position, working capacity, etc. Thus, in this paper, the essential foundations of environmental volunteering, as well as the signs of eco-volunteering as certain integral characteristics of it, which, according to the authors, are fundamental, are highlighted.

Keywords: volunteer, volunteering, environmental volunteering, volunteer activity, eco-volunteer, ecological culture, environmental education, university

Gilemkhanova Elvira Nurakhmatovna, Khusainova Rezeda Munirovna Photoprojection method as a way to study social perceptions about the safety of the educational environment using visual storytelling // Pedagogical Review. 2024. Issue 5 (57). P. 124-132

The work is aimed at presenting the author’s method of photo projection, which makes it possible to study the social representations of respondents based on the analysis of the corresponding visual narrative. The conceptual basis of the study was the theory of the core and periphery of J.-C. Abric. Based on a comparison of the verbal (core, space of semiotic norms) and non-verbal (periphery, space of semiotic practices) focuses of attention of respondents and the identification of the degree of conflict-consistency of the representations that form them, 3 types of interaction of nuclear and peripheral representations of the semiotic code were identified at the theoretical level: coordination, conjugation, conflict. An empirical justification was built by correlating the data obtained using the photoprojection method, the data of the associative experiment, and data on the strength and specificity of the respondent’s defense mechanisms on the basis of a study on the topic “safety of the educational environment”. The hypothesis was the idea that the conflict type of interaction of verbal and non-verbal representations among respondents should be accompanied by the severity (redundancy) of defense mechanisms. The sample for a qualitative study consisted of 20 students aged 19–23 years (M = 20.7; SD = 1.24). The results of the study demonstrate that researchers can use the method of photoprojection and its theoretical construction, associated with the identification of types of interaction between core and peripheral representations, for the empirical study of social representations.

On the basis of works of domestic scientists (art historians, teachers, IT-specialists) the main tasks of modern design education, aimed at training a competent, creative graduate able to apply ethnocultural material in the professional sphere, including by means of digital technologies, are considered. The study is based on the mechanisms of introducing the material of traditional Russian costume into the content component of training future designers. An important confirmation of the significance of including the material of traditional Russian costume in design education is the quality and novelty of project developments and the effectiveness of students’ projects participation in competition and exhibition activities. In the course of the study was proved the high efficiency of using the material of traditional Russian costume in modern design education in the formation of professional competencies aimed at improving the future specialist, and universal, contributing to the education of the individual in the traditions of their culture. The high level of students’ mastering the material of traditional Russian costume was indicated by the growth of the number of completed projects of ethno-style clothing collections, which is a successful use of the material of traditional Russian costume in modern design education.
