Annotation: The article is devoted to the issue of improving the effectiveness of educational activities of students studying with the use of distance educational technologies. The aim of the work is to study the possibilities of implementing a student-centered approach, focused on their interests and students ‘ capabilities, in the context of learning mediated by computer technologies. The ultimate goal of this approach is to develop the autonomy and independence of students who are responsible for their own learning outcomes. The paper shows the advantages of the student-centered approach, lists the main principles of student-centered learning. The tasks facing the student who independently manages educational activities in the conditions of the digital educational space are listed. The strategy of organizing the joint work of the teacher and students proposed in the article is aimed at providing each student with the opportunity to take a direct part in determining the principles and rules of joint educational activities. The article presents pedagogical techniques that allow organizing training centered on the interests and opportunities of students in the digital educational space.

Annotation: Human potential is a significant factor affecting economy competitiveness. It’s especially important to focus on forming youth’s human potential as an innovative resource of social development. The purpose of this article is to analyze the opportunities of youth’s human potential development in the context of SMART-education concept. We present the key aspects of this approach in particular related to the development of SMART-competencies. The research is based on the findings of the experiment conducted by VRC of RAS in 2020. It shoes that on average the SMART-competencies in the experimental and control groups are at an autonomous level with prospects of a strategic one. The author proposes a list of the basic directions that would help to develop individual components of SMART-competencies and indicates their possible contribution to human potential formation. The paper concludes with the need to create a favorable environment that promotes the development of students’ abilities and outlines the areas for further studies.

Annotation: The article is devoted to the development of methodological techniques in the formation of individual figurative expressiveness among students of choreographic art. The relevance of the study is due to the need for constant improvement of the methodology for the formation of figurative expressiveness in students on the basis of a scientific analysis of the generalized pedagogical experience and the characteristics of modern dance. The research methods are general logical methods (analysis and synthesis), as well as the idiographic method designed to emphasize the characteristic features of modern dance. The article discusses the methods, techniques and means of choreographic art used in teaching the dancer's performing skills. The analysis of the choreographic aspects of the content of the individual figurative expressiveness of the modern dancer is carried out, scientific and methodological recommendations for its implementation in students are formulated. The significant role of the teacher-choreographer in the acquisition of the dancer's performing skills is noted, since it is he who contributes to the development of the style of performance and expressiveness of plastic. Scientific and methodological recommendations have been formulated that make it possible to increase the effectiveness of teaching modern dance and contribute to the disclosure of the potential of students in the field of choreographic art.

Annotation: The paper focuses on didactic aspects of the implementation of gamification, one of the most promising directions in modern educational process. In teaching methodology, gamification is viewed as an educational game, in which the participants follow the rules previously agreed by the teacher. As a rule, these kinds of games are auxiliary tools and an addition to traditional teaching methods. As a technology for adapting playing to non-gaming processes, including teaching a foreign language, gamification has a long history of development due to the fact that game is a natural way of learning. We have analyzed the history of the development of educational computer games, identified the requirements that an effective game must meet, and also presented the games we use when teaching a foreign language to future engineers. The findings have shown that gamification has high didactic potential. The rational exploitation of the game elements in the educational process has a positive effect on the students’ motivation, provides instant feedback, records the learning progress and confirms the mastery of the necessary knowledge, skills, and abilities. On the other hand, gamification has certain shortcomings, which are also listed in the paper.
