MEANS OF INFLUENCE ON THE MOTIVATION SPHERE OF HIGHER EDUCATION ACQUISITIONS IN CONDITIONS OF SYNCHRONOUS EDUCATION

Людмила Пермінова — 2024-02-09

In the modern educational paradigm oriented towards the satisfaction of individual requests, the problems of professional formation of future specialists acquire special importance. Social problems, wartime force educators to constantly improve their practical professional skills. Many institutions switched to a distance learning format, and this led to the need to improve work skills with the use of innovative teaching technologies. This has both positive and negative components. The definition and substantiation of means of active learning in the mode of synchronous (asynchronous) learning, which teachers successfully cope with, can be attributed to the positive. However, in connection with remote learning, there is a problem with motivation, the manifestation of independence, and the formation of self-management qualities of higher education students. There is a problem of a positive influence on the motivational sphere of a modern student, which ensures his success both in studies and success in future professional activities. Means of motivation for success should be didactically and methodically coordinated with the needs and individual qualities of those who study. Informatization, digitization of the educational process provides ample opportunities for teachers' creativity. Modern IT technologies, especially cloud technologies, provide teachers with a fairly convenient, free set of tools for activating the educational and cognitive activities of students, including virtual whiteboards, multimedia presentations, tools for organizing group work, services for creating tests, intelligence cards, supplemented and virtual reality. It should be noted that the quality of information perception, motivation for activity increases when watching videos, listening to texts and musical works. Motivation increases when the winners themselves take an active part in creating drawings, multimedia presentations, etc. The influence on the development of the motivational sphere of higher education seekers is complex and requires a lot of time and effort of teachers.

APPLICATION OF BICLUSTERING ANALYSIS FOR FORMING COHERENT DATA SUBSETS

Sergii Babichev — 2024-02-09

This paper introduces a new approach to data analysis using biclustering, which significantly differs from traditional clustering methods. Available scientific works were analyzed, which characterized the method of bicluster analysis and the features of its application. The authors focus on identifying coherent subsets within complex data, extending beyond typical data such as gene expression. They emphasize exploring how biclustering analysis can uncover hidden connections in data, often overlooked by conventional methods. Quality criteria for biclustering of gene expression data were formed and the effectiveness of internal criteria was evaluated. The quality of biclusters is thoroughly examined using mean squared error (MSE) and mutual information, ensuring the reliability and objectivity of the results. A distinctive feature of biclustering analysis is its ability to identify biclusters of various sizes and shapes, crucial for understanding complex and heterogeneous data. This approach not only highlights local patterns in data subsets but also reveals more intricate interrelations. The article also stresses the importance of optimizing hyperparameters and using quality criteria to achieve the most accurate results. The research aims not only to identify coherent data subsets but also to gain a deeper understanding of structural features and interconnections revealed by biclustering analysis. This work opens new prospects for analyzing complex data, offering a deeper insight into their structure and dynamics. Particularly valuable is the method’s ability to detect overlapping biclusters, aiding in uncovering more complex and profound dependencies in the data.

THE CASE METHOD AS A TECHNOLOGY FOR ENSURING THE QUALITY OF HIGHER EDUCATION DURING DISTANCE LEARNING USING ICT TOOLS: WORK EXPERIENCE

Valentyna Krotenko — 2024-02-09

Current socio-ecological and socio-political challenges dictate the implementation of a complex of information and communication (digital) technologies into the organization of the educational process. This makes it possible to implement the process of distance learning in educational institutions in situations of natural and technogenic uncertainty. The organization of the educational process is directed not only to the assimilation of individual blocks of theoretical information but also to the ability of students to make independent decisions and act in various situations, practically using the accumulated knowledge. To achieve such results, it is necessary to apply new approaches to the organization of the educational process, focusing on personal and professional individuality of each student, relying on a differential and creative approach in the learning process, and using variability of interactive forms and training methods. This approach not only increases the likelihood of knowledge assimilation but also allows going beyond them in the area of development of students' analytical skills and self-awareness, communication and leadership skills, and formation of decision-making in conditions of uncertainty.

In this context, it is worth considering the problem of using the case method in professional training with an emphasis on the essence of the case method as an interactive learning method and as a form of organization of educational and cognitive activities of students; as a pedagogical technology used in the process of professional training; on the potential of the case-method as a powerful tool for interactive, personality-oriented student learning strategy aimed at developing their critical thinking, communication skills and interpersonal communication skills.

The most powerful are cases that make it possible to obtain a number of reasonable estimates, which leads to variable, but equally plausible and proven conclusions. Also, an effective means of professional training in the system of continuous and open education is the use of case triggers, which are presented in the form of unresolved or provocative issues that require further searches and discussions. Particular attention is paid to developing cases specifically focused on the development of students' scientific skills (interrupted case).

The results of using the case method, as one of the most promising interactive methods of organizing vocational training, to ensure the quality of education during distance learning using ICT tools on the example of professional training of future specialists in the field of special and clinical psychology are analyzed.

Olena Diahyleva — 2024-02-09

The article is devoted to the use of Kahoot! as a game-based learning platform at a higher education institution. This paper has analyzed the influence of Kahoot! on learning outcomes of future maritime professionals. The process of the “Feedback” tool use in the educational process at a higher maritime education institution is described.

The article reviews the scientific literature on gamification in learning, e.g., the study of other researchers and their approaches to using the tools such as Kahoot!. The paper emphasizes the fact of limited opportunities for the Kahoot! free use despite the company’s commercial interests.

The paper describes the usage of Kahoot! as an interactive tool in both synchronous and asynchronous modes. The synchronous mode enables teachers to conduct quizzes in real time, and students to take part in them using their devices, which promotes active participation and healthy competition. In asynchronous mode, teachers can assign independent study tasks to students, who can perform them with Kahoot! at their own convenience, allowing for flexibility in learning.

The study presents the results of an experiment conducted at Kherson State Maritime Academy, where Kahoot! has been used in teaching Maritime English and humanities. The data analysis has identified positive changes in the level of students' professional competence, which confirms the improvement of the learning material understanding.

The research analyzed the role of Kahoot! in the organization of feedback between teacher and students during classes. Its specifics and features are determined precisely as a pedagogical toolkit for quickly conducting a section of students’ acquired knowledge during any form of education and various forms of educational classes. In general, the research and implementation of novel approaches in gamification and game-based learning give access to creating an effective learning environment.

Further research prospects include the study of the use of other gamification tools and game-based learning at maritime higher education institutions (e.g., Mentimeter, Miro).

INTRODUCTION OF AN INDIVIDUAL EDUCATIONAL TRAJECTORY IN A HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTION THROUGH THE IMPLEMENTATION OF A CATALOG OF ELECTIVE DISCIPLINES

Oksana Buinytska — 2024-02-09

Institutions of higher education are increasingly faced with the diversity of needs and expectations of students, which calls into question traditional educational curricula. In this context, there is a need to introduce new approaches that provide students with greater flexibility in learning and the opportunity to independently shape their educational path. One of these approaches is an individual educational trajectory, which allows students to actively participate in the formation of their individual learning paths, increasing their motivation and interest in the learning process. The urgency of introducing an individual educational trajectory in universities reflects the need to adapt the educational system to modern realities and individual needs of students. It is also a response to the challenge of ensuring flexibility, differentiation and personalization of training, which is becoming increasingly important in light of the rapidly changing labor market and the requirements for the competencies of future professionals. The article examines the possibility of introducing an individual educational trajectory for students of higher education institutions through the implementation of the “catalog of elective disciplines” module in the e-learning system, evaluation and planning of the educational process, determination of success criteria and support of students in the process of selection and advancement along an individual trajectory. The relevance of this issue is due to changes in the modern educational environment, which requires a more flexible approach to learning to take into account the individual needs and interests of students. An analysis of research related to the implementation of an individual educational trajectory and the implementation of the catalog of selective disciplines was carried out.

AN ALGEBRAIC APPROACH TO THE VERIFICATION OF SMART CONTRACTS IN TEAL

Oleksandr Letychevskyi — 2023-12-29

Blockchain and smart contracts have transformed the modern world. They help ensure security and trust in transactions, revolutionize finance, logistics, healthcare, and many other industries. Smart contracts are based on software code, so they can contain errors that lead to incorrect execution of the contract. Since the area of use of smart contracts is often related to finance, the cost of such errors can be quite high. Also, errors in smart contracts that have already been sent to the network cannot be corrected due to the immutable nature of the blockchain. This problem can be solved through smart contract code analysis, which allows developers to check the correctness of their code and protect it from possible errors and vulnerabilities.

This article proposes the use of insertional modeling to analyze smart contract code for the Algorand blockchain. This blockchain is one of the fastest, low-cost, carbon-negative blockchains that has advanced smart contract capabilities with low transaction fees. The language used to create smart contracts in Algorand is called Transaction Execution Approval Language (TEAL).

In this work, we review existing tools for TEAL code verification and describe the capabilities that each of them provides. Among these tools are Graviton, Tealer, Algo Builder/runtime. In this paper we describe the features of the TEAL language, as well as give examples of writing a smart contract using it.

We offer our method for verification created smart contract. It consists in using the algebraic approach, which is implemented in the scope of the insertion modeling system to verify the smart contract code. This approach will allow us to check the smart contract code for some state reachability and deadlocks.

Tetiana Bondarenko — 2023-12-29

The article discusses the features of using the Timeline.JS multimedia tool for visualizing educational material. The influence of information and communication technologies on the education sector leads to the fact that the visual way of presenting information becomes more popular and in demand, as a result of which there is a need to look for interactive approaches to the effective transfer of knowledge, skills and experience to consumers of educational services.

Attention is focused on the possibilities of using the timeline as a new tool for presenting different types of content. In the course of the study, the main areas of use of timelines were analyzed: in the media, in the field of art, and in education. Active software tools for creating timelines were identified, which include: Timeline.JS, Timetoast, Рreceden, TIKI-TOKI, Timeline Maker, BEEDOCSTimeline, and as an additional tool, they are used by Canva and Prezi as part of cloud services.

It is noted that Timeline.JS is software, a ready-made information product, thanks to which interactive, multimedia content is presented. An attempt was made to research the timeline as a "product" for use in the following categories: "Historical and Social Sciences", "Literary Analysis", "Science and Technology", "Biographies and Personalities", "Geography", "Natural Sciences", "Culture" , "Social changes and reforms".

The rules for developing an effective timeline that can be used by educators as part of work on dynamic visualization of educational material are proposed.

Iryna Malytska — 2023-12-29

The article is devoted to the system of assessment of the school's information and digital environment (IDE) on the example of the Great Britain experience. In order to maintain and develop a modern IDE, it is necessary to assess its state, which will help determine: the effectiveness of technology use; strengths and weaknesses of the school's digitalisation policy; further ways of its effective digitalisation. The article presents the Naace SRF (Self Review Framework) self-assessment tool, which has been created and used by Great Britain educators for over 20 years, as well as its structural elements, which were developed by various educational organisations (the Office for Standards in Education, Children's Services and Skills; education agencies; educational institutions; the Trust, etc.) The National Digital Strategies and the views of the education community were taken into account during development. Control questions are provided to help schools prepare in advance for the SRF self-assessment process. The author describes the assessment process carried out on the Naace online platform, which consists of four levels, presents general questions asked to school representatives covering the following areas: leadership and management; teaching and learning with technology; assessment of digital potential; protection of digital data; professional development; resources and technologies. The ease of use of the tool has been determined, given that the assessment data is stored in the system, so schools can independently monitor the development of digitalisation of their educational institution and formulate further digital plans. In addition, the System has developed the NaaceMark quality mark, which motivates schools to increase their level of technological development. An analysis of existing systems for assessing the effectiveness of the school's information and digital environment will help to create the own tool that will meet the requirements and needs of Ukrainian educators.

THE USE OF CAD SYSTEM IN THE INNOVATIVE METHOD OF TEACHING GRAPHIC DISCIPLINES

Iryna Taras — 2023-12-29

The experience of online engineering and computer graphics education at the Ivano-Frankivsk National Technical University of Oil and Gas for engineering majors is considered. The problems of achieving project-oriented learning competencies in online mode are analyzed. The use of CAD systems is considered to ensure the graphic competencies provided by the "Engineering and Computer Graphics" course program in the online conditions of the organization of the educational process. As an example, "Sketching" (the IKG course topic) - is considered, which is one of the most vulnerable to the achievement of graphic competencies in online learning. The result of this topic should be acquiring skills for creating a sketch from a part made of metal, gaining experience in measuring it, and determining the roughness of surfaces. This topic includes graphic works for sketching several details (cover, union nut, fitting, etc.). During off-line training in the classroom, each student is given a part made of metal, from which he determines all the parameters and attributes necessary for creating a sketch using the methods of measurement and visual inspection. The problems that arise during online training are not related to the creation of technical drawings but to the ability to obtain information from parts made of metal. The considered material gives reasons to assert that the development of CAD systems requires methodical material improvement to ensure students' acquisition of competencies related to their use. Also, the development of these systems makes it possible to use them not only as a subject of study by students but also to create methodological support for engineering graphics, which in turn expands the skills of their use by students.

THE APPLICATION OF IСT IN THE ASSESSMENT OF EDUCATIONAL ACHIEVEMENTS IN ENGLISH OF HIGHER EDUCATION STUDENTS

Oksana Sovhar — 2023-07-17

The article analyzes the place and role of pedagogical assessment in the organization of the educational process in higher education institutions. It highlights that the objective results of assessment are an important component in the formation of a competence approach to the professional training of modern specialists. Generalized theoretical developments of domestic and foreign scientists on the given problem are considered, the analysis of which proves that pedagogical assessment has always ranked high in providing educational services. It is noted that although placement, diagnostic, progress, achievement, and proficiency tests have been the main forms of assessment in higher education institutions for quite some time, with the beginning of digitalization of educational system, objective conditions have led to implementation of pedagogical assessment using information and communication technologies. A global pandemic as well as the war in Ukraine urge the expansion of possibilities and improvement of the quality of pedagogical assessment of students’ learning outcomes using distance learning technologies. Therefore, the state and potential of educational assessment are analyzed; results of measuring learning outcomes using distance learning technologies in higher education institutions are investigated. It was found that there are adequate conditions for distance learning of students via various Language Management Systems LMS (Moodle, Brightspace, Docebo, Edmondo, Schoology) in Ukrainian institutions of higher education. At the same time, the survey taken by the educational process stakeholders confirmed the hypothesis that faculty and students are not quite ready to accept pedagogical assessment carried out through the medium of distance learning technologies which considerably complicates objective assessment and evaluation of learning outcomes in the absence of face-to-face communication. In order to meet the present day requirements, a set of measures is proposed regarding the preparation and conduct of pedagogical assessment of students’ learning outcomes using digital technologies.

MARKOV PROCESSES IN RESEARCHING THE PROBABILITY OF CYBER ATTACKS ON MARINE VESSELS

Tetyana Zaytseva — 2023-02-02

Shipping is increasingly relying on digital solutions for everyday tasks. There are constant updates in the field of information technology, data availability, speed of processing and transfer of data with advanced possibilities to optimize work, save costs, increase security and sustainability of business. Along with the growing dependence on automation, the risk of external interference and disruption of key systems significantly increases; hackers can interfere with the operation of the ship or navigation systems, cut off all external communications of the ship or obtain confidential data.
Research on cyber security of maritime sector facilities is quite acute today and requires constant attention and improvement.
According to cyber security experts in the maritime sector, ground and space equipment systems are most vulnerable to cyberattacks; global positioning systems, electronic cartographic and navigational information systems; flight data registration systems; cargo operations systems; engine, machine and power management systems; access control systems; ship's public internet networks; administrative systems and networks; communication systems and port infrastructure.
Analyzing the above, it can be concluded that the more data is collected, the more accurate reports and response actions to cyber threats will be performed by the ship's security management system.
A careful analysis of the sources of cyberattacks, which occur most often, allows us to assume that this is a random process that obeys the laws that are called Markov processes in the theory of probabilities (or, more precisely, stochastic processes).
The subject of the study is the construction of a model based on the properties of Markov processes, which allows for a more detailed study of the process, analysis and forecasting of the development of a cyberincident in order to make a management decision regarding further constructive actions.
