Larysa Bondarenko — 2025-01-21

The article deals with the peculiarities of the development of improvisational skills of future bachelors of musical art in professional training. A number of scientific, pedagogical and educational works by teachers of professional disciplines of higher art education institutions are studied to identify those aspects of the problem that need further development in the process of professional training, particularly in the classes of instrumental-performance and music-theoretical cycles («Special Instrument», «Concertmaster's Class», «Instrumental Ensemble», «Fundamentals of Composition and Improvisation», etc.); and their relevance is substantiated. It is found that the basis for the development of the studied phenomenon is the creative skills of higher education students acquired in the process of studying the disciplines of instrumental- performance and music-theoretical cycles (creating an interpretive version of a work, playing by ear, transposing musical material, creative adaptation of the accompaniment of a musical work, arrangement of a musical work, elementary composition, etc.). It has been established that the development of improvisational skills of future bachelors of musical art is a complex process that involves mastering specific techniques of jazz playing and improving performance technique, which actualizes the needs of usage of effective forms and methods of teaching in the above mentioned disciplines, which ensure the interconnection of artistic and technical, theoretical and practical, intellectual (rational) and spontaneous (irrational, intuitive) components of professional training. The prospects for further research are the issues of effective forms and methods for the development of improvisational skills of the future bachelor of musical art in the process of professional training, in particular in class on a special instrument.

Valentyn Demskyi — 2025-01-21

The article is devoted to the definition and substantiation of pedagogical conditions for the preparation of bachelors in economics for the use of information and communication technologies in professional activities. The authors note that the use of ICT contributes to the successful production of educational content, the implementation of creative ideas in practice, and the use of non-standard approaches to the training of bachelors in economics. Attention is drawn to constant substantive and organizational transformations in the methodology of training bachelors in economics. The authors suggest that teachers observe the following learning principles: – creation of a creative and searching atmosphere in classes, there is no expediency for the student to receive all the information in a ready-made form, because for several such classes his cognitive ability can become close to zero; – it is wrong to use only one form of activity in classes; – the goal of implementing innovative ideas is the implementation of new approaches to the teaching methodology, the application of new methods, technological potentials, multimedia training tools for the effectiveness of the personal development of an economic profile specialist in the future. Pedagogical conditions are interpreted as factors (circumstances) that enable optimal interaction between participants in the educational process. An important function of pedagogical conditions is the provision of opportunities for scientific and pedagogical workers to implement the management of obtaining information about ICT by bachelors in economics. The authors propose the following pedagogical conditions for the preparation of bachelors in economics for the use of ICT in professional activities: – focus of the content of the educational process (professional educational components) on the use of information and communication technologies in professional activities; – the use of interactive methods in the process of training bachelors in economics; – increasing the level of information and communication competence of scientific and pedagogical workers who teach disciplines in bachelor's degrees in economics; – expansion of creative possibilities of professional communication during industrial practice of bachelors in economics.

FORMATION OF AESTHETIC COMPETENCE OF UNIVERSITY STUDENTS BY MEANS OF SPECIALIZED DISCIPLINES

Tetyana Potapchuk — 2025-01-21

The article notes that the modern system of higher education in Ukraine is undergoing significant transformations, which leads to a constant increase in the requirements for the professional level of a specialist. Formation of a creative, highly educated student is a key task enshrined in the Law of Ukraine "On Education", the Law of Ukraine "On Higher Education", the State Program "Teacher" and the National Strategy for the Development of Education in Ukraine until 2021. The aesthetic aspect of student education in higher education institutions is becoming particularly relevant. This need is exacerbated by a number of contradictions between: the need of a modern school for highly professional teachers and the insufficient level of aesthetic competence of teachers of humanities; the need for a thorough study of the process of forming the aesthetic competence of university students and the lack of scientific research in this area; the powerful creative and developmental potential of aesthetic and pedagogical activities and the insufficient consideration of this aspect in the programs of professional disciplines. Despite the existence of solid scientific developments, the problem of forming aesthetic competence remains insufficiently researched in the context of modern educational challenges. This is especially true of its integration into university curricula, which necessitates a comprehensive study and updating of approaches to the professional training of university students. The relevance of the study is determined by the need to improve the professional training of students through the development of their aesthetic competence. Taking into account aesthetic aspects in pedagogical activity will contribute to the education of a creative, culturally conscious generation of specialists who are able to meet the challenges of our time and provide a high level of education.

SOME ASPECTS OF FOREIGN EXPERIENCE IN TRAINING SPECIALISTS IN THE ARTISTIC EDUCATION SECTOR

Yuliia Tarchynska — 2025-01-21

The current foreign experience of training specialists in the art education sector shows that the community of economically developed countries properly assesses art as an important factor in the preservation of historical, national and cultural values, as a strategic means of social, economic and educational development of society, an effective way of formation of the creative potential of the individual, his/her ability to spiritual and intellectual growth. The effectiveness of the educational system of these countries encourages the study of innovative practices in foreign art education that can be used in the domestic educational process. Taking into account the humanistic approach in accordance with foreign experience involves: creating the most favourable conditions for the professional formation and self-improvement of the individual, the unique development of each student by providing opportunities for the implementation of their own educational trajectory; disclosure of personal spiritual and artistic potential through art education in its interdisciplinary connections and the formation of a value system on a national basis, a culture of tolerant relations. Competence-based training of future specialists in the art education sector assumes the involvement of students in intensive training with their gradual involvement in various types of practical activities. This enhances the value of the creative activity approach, the main tasks of which in the context of the study were identified as: orientation of the educational process towards socially significant results, effective combination of individual independent learning with innovative collective (as well as autonomous) creative activity, productive partnership interaction of students with instructors, school teachers, mentors. The focus of the educational policy of leading foreign countries on regional public interests and integration processes actualises the humanitarian approach, which provides favourable conditions for training specialists in the art education system: adaptability and flexibility, variability of the content of high-quality education, including the availability of a large selection of educational resources at the level of institutions, broad and narrow specialities, training programmes, and integration of ideas from different fields of knowledge. From the point of view of transforming the educational environment into a means of qualitative diagnostics, modelling and forecasting the results of training future specialists for their professional self-realisation, it is important to have foreign experience in interpersonal interaction on the principles of academic integrity, ensuring a comfortable environment in inclusive education, and up-to-date material and technical support of educational activities.

SYNCRETISM IN THE WORK OF FOLK INSTRUMENTAL AND POP GROUPS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF UKRAINIAN MUSICAL CULTURE

Myroslav Fylypchuk — 2025-01-21

The proposed article reveals the concepts of "pop and “folk-instrumental” performance. The main way of development of instrumental music in the second half of the twentieth century was through intercultural interactions and the emergence of new genre and style dimensions, among which syncretism in the work of folk instrumental and pop groups takes an important place. As is well known, folk instrumental performance is defined by a special quality, a combination of various folk musical instruments characterised by a multi-tone palette and unique means of musical expression. The paper outlines the creative activity of folkinstrumental and pop bands in the context of the mutual influence of these two musical cultures and makes a retrospective analysis of scientific sources that thoroughly investigate the problems of folk and pop-jazz music. It is found that in the performance practice of ensemble and orchestral groups, their own playing styles and special approaches to the performance of musical works were crystallised, based on complex rhythmic and melodic structures, as well as specific harmonies that made these genres different from others. The article reveals the palette of folk instruments that are widely used in the practice of pop vocal and instrumental ensembles such as Smerichka, Kobza, Vodohrai, Svityaz, Berezen, Berkut, and others. These musical groups widely used ancient musical instruments: bandura, goat-bass, flute, drymba, violin, tambourine, lyre and, of course, kobza. It has been found that a large number of different young folk bands have emerged in contemporary Ukrainian music practice, effectively using folk instruments and experimenting with different timbres, achieving a unique and specific sound. Namely, the combination of ethnic instruments: flute, percussion, the Australian brass instrument didgeridoo with keyboards, bass guitar, electric guitars, etc. The proposed article is a certain scientific view on the subject of coverage of folk instruments in the work of pop performers and orchestral groups, which encourages deep reflection and analysis.
