(Lviv Politechnic Publishing House, 2017-02-20) Shvay, Rosksolyana; Misiurak, Yana; Lviv Polytechnic National University
Modern technologies have a great influence on our life, learning and communication. Both understanding of a learning process and acquisition of knowledge are changing. Key factors for a successful functioning in the modern world are learning, innovation and cooperation. A new phenomenon of a joint learning or self-education is developing. Connectivism, as a theory of learning, is adapted to the opportunities of our time and becomes the basis for the development and introduction of new pedagogical technologies in the era of globalization and computer technology. Connective training helps us shape all the key skills that we need to function in the modern world. Leading aspect in the learning process is the connection between learning activities and thinking. Value is represented not by the quantity of knowledge, but by its relevance. The key competences of this theory are the ability to use technological advances, to search for information in external databases and to link it to available knowledge and other information.

(Lviv Politechnic Publishing House, 2017-02-20) Iievliev, Oleksander; Morska, Nataliya; Lviv Polytechnic National University
The article considers the role of professional mobility in conditions of the post-industrial (informational) society in the XXIst century. Depending on the specific type of activity of those whose professional mobility is formed, the question may be about increasing the importance of its certain components (parameters), which determines the difference in the names of this concept in modern research. It has been determined that professional mobility is a leading form of mobility of participants in the educational process of higher education, and therefore its formation is an urgent task of the education system. At the same time, since professional mobility is an integrative quality of the individual, its formation is connected with the educational aspect of the educational process. Subsequent studies include the improvement of educational and professional training programs, retraining and advanced training etc. Therefore, their next step is to consider the peculiarities of the formation of individual components of professional mobility (vocational and pedagogical mobility) etc.
Professional mobility: philosophical and sociological aspect
(Lviv Politechnic Publishing House, 2016-09-12) Sushentseva, Liliya; Havrylyuk, Marianna; Lviv Polytechnic National University
In the article the problem of competitiveness of able-bodied citizens and their capacity for professional mobility have been studied. The professional mobility has been researched by foreign and Ukrainian scientists. The European scientists started empirical investigation of the mobility processes in the mid-XXth century. It has been found that the division of labor in the history of human society led to the emergence of professions and was the main (motivation) driving force of human progress. Due to it people started to differ from one another. Considering this fact, P. Kropotkin emphasized the future professionals’ need for the development of mobility. The basis for the study of such phenomenon as professional mobility is the research works of E. Durkheim and M. Weber. Functional approach to the analysis of professional mobility as a social phenomenon became the fundamental base of their research. Philosophers interpret the concept of “mobility” in terms of dialectic Law of the Development of Society, and sociologists distinguish the dynamism of social development as the main factor that determines the nature and the content of social and professional mobility. It has been proved that among the able-bodied citizens who deliberately have chosen a certain profession and have mastered it, there are people who are forced to get training for a new occupation and pursue a different profession. The research results let us state that among these people there will be those who will not always be ready for professional mobility. Professional mobility has been described as a condition and a consequence of the professional division of labour according to the society needs by changing the profession or training for a new one and has been also considered as a change of employment position or role of the worker that is caused by the change of the place of work or profession.

The method of derivative contradictions determination from the main one is being offered.
Role of mercy in Christian self-upbringing
(Lviv Politechnic Publishing House, 2017-02-20) Miśkowiec, Ewa; Szymańska, Maria; Jesuit University Ignatianum
The article is aimed at showing the meaning of role of mercy in Christian up-bringing. The dimensions of Christian merciful upbringing cover the self-conscience level and self-active level where mercy takes its place there in sanctuary of interior meeting man with God that is expressed in latent dialogue between them. It requires understanding of the differences between notions “upbringing” and “self-upbringing”. The first one focuses on exterior influences on a person that undergoes the process of bringing up, the second one focuses on interior factors that need deep consciousness “pushing the person” towards more mature attitude reflected in merciful acts of doing. These acts have the inner and outer character. They let lifelong process of upbringing go towards transforming itself into self-upbringing one. Hence, this article is going to depict some aspects of the latent area of experience fostering building up the mature attitude of a man.
Social-pedagogical work with a dysfunctional family in the Ukrainian context
(Lviv Politechnic Publishing House, 2017-02-20) Shved, Maria; Duzha-Zadorozhna, Myroslava; Pukaliak, Marta; Ukrainian Catholic University; Lviv Polytechnic National University
The modern Ukrainian society is experiencing a period of socio-political transformations, economic crisis and is searching for new strategies of its social development. Under these conditions, the notion of family undergoes considerable changes, which have a negative effect on its everyday activity. According to the socio-pedagogical approach, families can be thus classified: well-to-do, seemingly problem-free, at-risk family and family in crisis. Social threats (migration, terrorism, organized crime, environmental crisis etc.) have negative influence on family’s creation and development. Urgent problems of the Ukrainian family are: orphanage, migrants and refugees, loss of the contact with family members due to forced migration, social orphanhood, decrease in educational and socializing potential, poverty. These problems increase the number of problem families and disadapted children and youngsters. Disadaptation is the consequence of disorders in the process of social adaptation, during which the individual acquires necessary skills and patterns of behavior and changes the environmental conditions, according to his needs and abilities. To overcome the problems mentioned family needs professional help. In order to devise methods of sociopedagogical work with families in crisis, its stages, methods, models and principles were described in this article. The works of S. Jones, R. Joss, F. Loewenberg, R. Dolgoff were used to define the models of socio-pedagogical support of disadapted children (paternalistic, contact, instrumental, personalistic). A set of methods was used in this research – selection, analysis, professional literature systematization and generalization, comparative method for analysis of research data, method of theoretical generalization etc. To sum up, it can be stated that in Ukraine the problem mentioned still lacks for precise methodological research and scientific techniques of cooperation with problem families. This encourages the creation of a complete system based on international experience and modern technologies, which allows preparing specialists in social-pedagogy.

(Lviv Politechnic Publishing House, 2016-09-12) Sikorskyi, Petro; Grabynska, Olesya; Lviv Polytechnic National University; The Ivan Franko National University of Lviv
The article presents the results of analyzing the effect of external factors on the development and quality of higher education in Ukraine. Among them the authors differentiate quality secondary education, well organized vocational guidance at schools, effective system of selection and admission of school leavers, prediction of the need for certain specialties, providing autonomy for universities and effective work of the National Agency for Quality Assurance in Higher Education. Various definitions of the concept of “higher education” are presented and analyzed. The authors consider the reasons of low competencies of higher schools applicants in almost all secondary school subjects and as a consequence the challenges facing the teachers of higher educational institutions in training highquality specialists. It is emphasized that most universities and institutes are to take the responsibility for the quality of education. This will enable them to be internationally competitive.
