This article presents the results of a pedagogical research, which objective was to find out through a documentary-bibliographic study how education for peace in Latin American research space is currently conceptualized. The authors found that there exist two main lines in the approach to peace education: realist-pragmatic-positivist and idealist-critical. The representatives of the first line (Vera-Poseck, Carbelo-Baquero, Vecina-Jiménez, 2006; Landazábal-Cuervo, Cardona, Ruiz-Manzanares, 2009; Cajigal-Molina, 2017; Caldera-Montes, Aceves, Reynoso-González, 2016, among others) choose to promote the peace culture through different academic and cultural events (courses, workshops, forums, conferences, colloquiums, seminars, festivals, exhibitions, cultural weeks, talks, etc.), which purpose is basically to explain to the population the negative effects of conflict, violence and the benefits of “living in peace and harmony”. They conceptualize peace education from the positivist position, pragmatic pedagogy, educational technology, resilience pedagogy, among others. Educational researchers who are supporters of the second line (Freire, 2012, Jares, 2001, Pérez-Viramontes, 2018, Quiroga-Trigo, 2012, Savater, 1997, among others) operate from the categories of dialectical philosophy and neo-Marxism, the historical-cultural approach, the critical theory, the radical or critical pedagogy and theories of cultural reproduction, the resistance pedagogy, the pedagogy of the oppressed, the border pedagogy, the complex thinking and pedagogy in complexities, the intercultural pedagogy and cultural relativism. They seek for man to build his own systems of ideas, knowledge, theories, to be a subject from his real perspective, a concrete and contextualized ecosocial minimum (microsystem) related to the whole through intercultural communication and logical pluralism. They consider that the conflict is natural, it is not negative in itself and it has an enormous possibility for development; that violence is not an evil phenomenon but an element of the human condition that needs to be reasonably attenuated by the use of no less natural impulses of cooperation, harmony and peaceful order; that insubordination is a sign of vitality and intelligence, which should be channeled towards social creativity and not towards violence.

The aim of the article is to analyse historical and pedagogical peculiarities of adult education development in the USA in the early 20th century in the context of reforming educational system of Ukraine. For fulfilment of the mentioned aim the following methods have been applied: a system of general theoretical methods (analysis, synthesis, comparison, abstraction etc.), and concrete scientific methods, namely term analysis and historical genetic analysis. Functioning of moonlight schools has been depicted. Determinants of the development of adult education in this period, in particular, such historical events as World Wars, the period of prosperity, the Great Depression and socio-economic factors have been singled out. The influence of industrialization and the introduction of new agricultural technologies on adult education has been presented. Legislative basics of adult education have been singled out, namely: Smith-Hughes Act (1917), which was aimed at vocational training at schools and colleges; George-Reed Act (1929), which emphasized the training of specialists in the field of home economics and agriculture; George-Deen Act of Vocational Education (1935), which provided additional funding for programs in agriculture, home economics, and industry; George-Barden Act (1946), which was flexible in the distribution of funding for education, provided money for teacher training; Bill of Rights (1944), called the Soldiers’ Bill of Rights because it dealt with loans for education and housing for demobilized soldiers; Employment Act (1946). Results of the conducted research work give opportunity to state that American experience in the field of adult education can help to create harmony between national traditions and world achievements on the basis of humanism and democracy; to give high quality educational service to adults, synchronize national system of adult education with world tendencies, provide conditions for adult education development and its influence on economic development of state.

The article analyzes the problem of assessment competence of future teachers in foreign countries and in Ukraine. The article proves that assessment competence is a structural element of professional competence of future teachers in general and physical education teachers in particular. The purpose of the article is to theoretically analyze the problem of assessment competence of future teachers in foreign countries and in Ukraine. In the result of the analysis of scientific elaborations of foreign and domestic scientists, we can state that the comparison of European and domestic models of assessment competence showed a number of differences. They exist due to socio-economic factors (in Ukraine today we cannot name a large number of educational programs with foreign language teaching, high mobility scientific and pedagogical staff and applicants for higher education in various specialties who participate in exchange programs) and teaching traditions (giving preference to basic education over vocational and economic-oriented). In European educational programs, there are no separate courses on mastering higher education students’ assessment competence, but there are three types of master's programs in assessment (assessment “in general”; assessment with a focus on statistical and sociological methods; assessment in specific areas of governmental policy); additional education programs (advanced training courses) and assessment courses in undergraduate programs. Regarding the Ukrainian system of bachelor’s degree training for teachers in general and physical education teachers in particular, its research showed that in the absence of separate courses on mastery of assessment knowledge and skills, some programs contain elements of control and assessment activities and concise information blocks of assessment. In the Ukrainian educational system, evaluative information is insufficiently systematized and considered in the context of various educational disciplines.

The article analyzes the organizational and pedagogical forms of social care for orphans in the People’s Republic of China: children’s villages-communes, Children’s Towns – SOS, boarding schools, boarding schools of religious orientation. It is proved that the commune-settlement named after V. Korolenko was taken as a model for the creation of children’s settlements-communes. Children’s villages are located in the countryside, in nature. In children’s villages there are children of different ages (from 3 years to 16–18), who must take care of each other. Children’s villages are considered a personnel reserve for China’s agricultural sector. SOS Children’s Villages is a charity project to support orphans, children left without parental care and children at risk of losing their families. It is a charitable organization that exists solely at the expense of sponsors. The organization is united in a mini-community of 11–15 houses, in each of which live 6–8 children of different age together with the SOS-mother. In China, there are boarding schools organized by local communities opened at the initiative of the local community in rural economically backward areas. Subjects taught in the boarding schools are Chinese, Local Language, Mathematics, Basics of Agriculture or Handicrafts, Basics of Politics and Laws of the People’s Republic of China. Children between the age of 5 and 12 live permanently on the boarding school, and older children attend Sunday lessons and receive additional education in their free time. The purpose of the article is to theoretically analyze the organizational and pedagogical forms of social care for orphans in the People’s Republic of China. As a result of the analysis of scientific works dedicated to the problem of social care for orphans in the People’s Republic of China, we can state that the main forms of social care for orphans in China are: children’s villages, “Children’s Towns – SOS”, boarding schools, orphanages and boarding schools with a religious orientation.

Abstract The function of the first women’s colleges in the USA is singled out. They expanded opportunities for women to get higher level of education, taking into account the fact that at that time women were not allowed to enter higher education establishments on equal footing with men. Some structural peculiarities of the first women’s colleges are viewed. By educational level colleges for women in that period were subdivided into two-year colleges, four-year colleges and universities. Financing peculiarities of the first women’s colleges in the USA are analysed. According to the source of financing colleges were private and public. The factors that led to the development of women’s education are analysed. Insufficient number of teachers in schools and widespread printed literature led to the need of involvement women in higher education. Teachers thought that intellectual abilities of men and women were equal, because women were not in social deprivation, and should participate fully in the life of civil society after obtaining knowledge in educational institutions. Due to scientific and technological revolution a number of devices that allow women to save time for economic affairs was worked out and, in turn, for this reason women could focus more on gaining knowledge for mastering future profession. The goals of women’s colleges establishment are analysed. Some teachers tried to train teachers, taking into account the shortage of teachers in schools due to expansion of the school network. Other teachers tried to give scientific and religious education and improve health of girls. The third group of teachers wanted to teach women self-education. The specifics of functioning of the first ɋatholic women’s colleges is analysed. Catholic leaders raised the question of expanding the network of Catholic women’s collegei due to insufficient number of religious teachers who have had some education level, because of the inability of church leaders to leave the church for educational services in colleges. In the USA, a peculiar feature of teaching in Catholic colleges was that the purpose of providing educational services was not only the development of intellectual abilities and training for future careers, but also spiritual development of students, which is the foundation of the Catholic faith.

Abstract The article analyzes the tendencies in the development of digital literacy of citizens of European Union member states in educational institutions. The urgency of the study is driven by the need to develop the skills needed to communicate effectively in the epoch of 4 – the Industrial Revolution. This study focuses on analyzing the approaches needed to build digital literacy, as well as identifying its key development criteria in the education systems of the UK, Slovenia, the Netherlands, Lithuania and Estonia. Attention is drawn to the existing documents and programs that formulate conceptual trendsways for digital literacy across Europe. At the same time, in the European Union there is no common model that reflects the ways and methods of digital literacy, each country defining its priorities for achieving the goals. It is noted that digital literacy is characterized as one of the key skills for developing the professional competencies of a teacher and a competitive specialist. Based on the study of digital literacy experience abroad, it is possible to define a clear public policy focused on high levels of digital literacy and digital skills. The digitalization status of educational establishments and the population of Ukraine, which is defined as low, is compared. The main directions of the concept of development of the digital economy and society of Ukraine for 2018–2020 are described which aim to bridge the “digital divide” in comparison with the developed EU countries. It is concluded that it is precisely the educational institutions need significant reform. Based on the analysis of digital literacy approaches abroad, this study identifies priority areas for reforming education systems in the European Union in line with current labor market and digital society requirements.

Abstract The necessity to research the problem of forming a professional culture of future border guard officers using the experience of military personnel training in the United States has been identified in the article. It has been found that professional culture and professionalism are an important part of the US military education system. The peculiarities of vocational training in the leading educational establishments of the United States of America, first of all the Military Academy (West Point, New York), have been studied. It has been determined that the priority of the academy, as a whole system of military vocational education in the USA, is attention to what is needed in the combat situation: analytical mind, leadership, theory and practice of management, knowledge of military history, operational doctrine, national defense policy, ability to plan and make decisions, perform legal duties, and abide the professional ethics. Experimental, case-based, interactive training with the extensive use of imitation devices and practical applications prevails in teaching methodology, which is needed to improve officers’ ability to analyze and solve problems, effectively interact and apply operational doctrine. To enhance the level of professional culture and military identity in military schools, great attention is paid to the development of officers’ intellectual potential, the ability to think and critically perceive the information needed to act in situations of ambiguity and uncertainty, to achieve intellectual superiority over the enemy. In accordance with the philosophy of military education in the United States, it is stipulated that a graduate of a military school should be first and foremost a highly intelligent person who, in many respects, must outperform a graduate of any civilian university, quickly acquire the chosen specialty. In addition to training for character education, military identity, the US military estalishments also intends to work hard to develop communicative skills and abilities through speaking and writing practice.

Abstract The article concerns the description of the system of professional training of border guards at the higher educational establishments in the Republic of India and distinguishing its structural components. To achieve the purpose of the research we used two groups of methods: quantitative and qualitative. Quantitative methods include analysis of statistical data, structural method, method of additional analysis of data, study of specific object, and juxtaposition. Qualitative methods concern analysis of normative documents, literature review, observation, method of scientific description of information, and comparative method. According to theoretical findings system approach enables to consider professional training as an integrated system with regard to its subsystems. Also, it is regarded as a specific strategy or set of techniques used to solve the particular problem – training of future expert. In our case, the pedagogical objective is to train highly-qualified border guard. The author described the system of professional training of border guards at the higher military educational establishments in the Republic of India in details. We have found that the system of professional training of border guards at the higher military educational establishments in the Republic of India consists of nine structural components.

To achieve the purpose of the research we used two groups of methods: quantitative and qualitative. Quantitative methods include analysis of statistical data, structural method, method of additional analysis of data, study of specific object, and juxtaposition. Qualitative methods concern analysis of normative documents, literature review, observation, method of scientific description of information, and comparative method. According to theoretical findings system approach enables to consider professional training as an integrated system with regard to its subsystems. Also, it is regarded as a specific strategy or set of techniques used to solve the particular problem – training of future expert. In our case, the pedagogical objective is to train highly-qualified border guard. The author described the system of professional training of border guards at the higher military educational establishments in the Republic of India in details. We have found that the system of professional training of border guards at the higher military educational establishments in the Republic of India consists of nine structural components. They are the following: legislative, management, institutional, methodological, targeted, organizational, content, technological, and result. Each component has its own peculiarities and coverage. The combination of all the structural components enables the system of professional training be effective and achieve the objectives. The uniqueness of the study of the system of professional training of border guards at the higher military educational establishments in the Republic of India concerns the fact that its structural components were not described before in one work.

Abstract The article analyzes the essence of the concept of “digital education”, the way of its formation in the international pedagogical discourse. The modern international tendencies of development of digital education which are shown in the conditions of acceleration of processes of digital transformation of a society and their realization in educational establishments are characterized. An important consequence of the digital revolution is the explosives growth of accessible and potentially useful information in various forms – not only traditionally textual, but also visual, audio. All paper is gradually converted to electronic format. One of the most significant innovations is the active implementation of digital education. The results of the comparative analysis have highlighted a number of major components of the digital education system. It has done the analysis of modern trends, which are today the main ones in the implementation of digital education in different educational institutions. The essence and basic qualities of distance and online learning are revealed. The role and main spectrum of tasks that automated testing in the control of knowledge and skills of education recipients is analyzed. A number of important areas are highlighted, which greatly increase the effectiveness of teaching and at the same time require a revision of traditional approaches to learning using mobile devices. Here are some of the key features of Learning Management Systems (LMS). The technology of adapting computer game techniques to non-game processes and events is discussed to increase the involvement of participants in the educational process. A number of benefits of digital education, combined with adaptive learning and personalization, have been highlighted, which are able to help each educator to achieve an optimal level of intellectual development according to his or her natural abilities and inclinations. It is established that the process of following modern trends and tendencies in the field of digital education will change the traditional plane of problems of education, the process of obtaining education will be wider and more flexible.
