PASCAL’S WAGER – FOR MODERN STUDENTS (HISTORICAL AND PHILOSOPHICAL, GENERAL THEORETICAL, WORLDVIEW AND DIDACTIC ASPECTS). PART 1

Page:116-127

Release: 2024-2 (47)

DOI: 10.21777/2500-2112-2024-2-116-127

Annotation: The relevance of the topic is determined by the fact that the content of the university academic discipline “Phi- losophy” provides rich opportunities for the realization of not only educational and developmental, but also educational goals of teaching and shaping the worldview of young people, focused not so much on a positivist understanding of knowledge of the world, man, society and history, as on the formulation and search for answers to metaphysical questions. The object of the study is the didactic features of the investigation of problems of con- frontation and polemics of two ideological systems of human life navigation, which represent opposite solutions to the “main issue of philosophy”. The subject of the study is the didactic specifics of students’ acquaintance with the famous Pascal’s wager in the context of ideological searches for personality. The purpose of the work is to substantiate the presentation of Pascal’s wager not as one of the many elements of the history of philosophy covered with the “dust of centuries”, interesting to the present person only as a “monument of antiquity” and therefore completely uninteresting to modern students, but, on the contrary, as always, the actual basis of ideo- logical personal choice. The research methods are abstraction, idealization, thought experiment, comparative analysis, deductively and inductively organized conclusions, conclusions by analogy and empirical generalization. The result of the work and one of its conclusions is the position according to which the content of Pascal’s wager provides in fact a unique didactic opportunity to demonstrate and substantiate the metaphysical asymmetry of the worldview choice between the materialistic, atheistic, evolutionist, scientific and anthropovolutaristic ideological pole of life navigation, on the one hand, and the idealistic, theistic, creationist, anti-scientific and providentialist pole, on the other one. The field of application of the research results is the ideological search for personal- ity, multifaceted educational interactions and didactic strategies in both secondary and higher education. The first part of the article describes the didactic and ideological aspects of students studying the confrontation of materialism and atheism in the general course of philosophy, on the one hand, and philosophical idealism and theism, on the other hand, as two worldview teachings and systems of human life navigation, conditioned by various solutions to the “basic issue of philosophy”.

THE PHENOMENON OF ACADEMIC PROCRASTINATION IN THE STUDENT ENVIRONMENT

Page:7-15

Release: 2023-4 (45)

DOI: 10.21777/2500-2112-2023-4-7-15

Annotation: The article is devoted to the consideration of the socio-psychological characteristics of the phenomenon of procrastination in the student environment. The socio-cultural and psychological causes of the emergence and spread of academic procrastination among students are analyzed, as well as the relationship of procrastination with the motivational sphere of students, which, first of all, manifests itself in the delay in performing necessary educational activities. The study focuses not only on the cognitive components of procrastination, but also on the emotional and behavioral ones. Special attention is paid to the consideration of such a reason for academic procrastination as perfectionism, which manifests itself when a student does not accept the imperfect result of his academic work and continues to refine the smallest details, postponing deadlines. Scientific approaches are considered in which procrastination is interpreted as one of the forms of coping behavior (coping), which is a special mechanism for adapting a person to various life situations and overcoming psychological stress. The results obtained in the course of an empirical study conducted among students of the Faculty of Management of the Witte Moscow University are presented.

ANALYSIS OF THE SCIENTIFIC ACTIVITY OF TEACHERS IN THE CONDITIONS OF THE ORGANIZATION OF INTERACTION BETWEEN PEDAGOGICAL UNIVERSITIES AND THE EDUCATIONAL DEVELOPMENT INSTITUTES

Page:7-15

Release: 2023-3 (44)

DOI: 10.21777/2500-2112-2023-3-7-15

Annotation: The problem of involving teachers of secondary schools in scientific activities in a rapidly changing educational environment is becoming increasingly relevant. The article is devoted to the study of the involvement of teachers in scientific activity in the context of the introduction of a national cluster model of interaction in the scientific field of a pedagogical university and the Institute for the development of education (in the period from 2022 to 2023). As part of the study, a survey of teachers of secondary schools at different stages of the implementation of the model was conducted. The study involved 962 teachers of the Khabarovsk Krai for the period 2022–2023. Based on the results of the survey, the trends of teachers’ involvement in scientific activity were determined in terms of the forms and role of participation. The difficulties encountered by teachers in organizing and performing scientific research in the context of the introduction of the national cluster model are identified and typified. The results of the study reflect the changes in the scientific activity of teachers in the conditions of the forming of interaction between the pedagogical university and the Institute of educational development. The results obtained can be useful in developing plans for scientific (scientific and methodological) cooperation of organizations.

THE IMPACT OF DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION ON EDUCATION SYSTEM CHANGE

Page:7-12

Release: 2023-2 (43)

DOI: 10.21777/2500-2112-2023-2-7-12

Annotation: The article discusses the features of the influence of information technologies on the education system based on research and legislative acts. The purpose of the study is to find out the reasons for the transformation of the form of education and to determine the main trends that set the vector for its further development. The analysis of statistics is carried out on the basis of studies of state universities, domestic and foreign scientific works. The scientific and practical significance of the results obtained lies in rethinking the process of modernizing the education system as a necessary response to the reality of the post-industrial world. Identification of the problems of digitalization, which makes it possible to identify directions for the development of the educational sphere in the near future, determines the practical usefulness of the study. The application of its results is possible in the field of creating and improving new platforms, systems for distance learning, taking into account the existing difficulties that affect the effectiveness of the education received.

WHY DO LOGIC TEXTBOOKS CONTAIN LOGICAL ERRORS?

Page:7-14

Release: 2023-1 (42)

DOI: 10.21777/2500-2112-2023-1-7-14

Annotation: The article analyzes the ambiguities in the foundations of modern logic due to the fact that the relations of set theory are used to substantiate the correct modes of categorical syllogism and the interpretation of predicate calculus, while set theory itself is defined in the axiomatic approach as a theory formed on the basis of axioms and rules for deducing predicate calculus by adding illogical (proper) axioms. It is proposed to apply elementary laws of the algebra of sets, which can be justified without axioms, based on the analysis of polysyllogistics-type reasoning. The analysis of the syllogism modes recommended for use is performed using simple and understandable properties of the relation of inclusion of sets. This analysis shows that the rules of syllogistics set forth in logic textbooks contain two types of logical errors: 1) some syllogism modes, which are considered correct in many textbooks, contradict some acceptable versions of their interpretation; 2) there are correct arguments with two premises, which in some textbooks are evaluated as incorrect modes. It follows from this that the cause of errors in logic textbooks are incorrectness in the justification of logic.
