The article is devoted to one of the main components of the professional competence of a modern teacher – competence in the field of information and communication technologies, namely, information and digital competence. The article gives an overview of the terminology used in foreign and domestic scientific literature. The analysis of researches revealing the essence and content of competence of the future teacher in the field of ICT is carried out. On the basis of analysis and generalization of information on the proposed topic, a complex of pedagogical conditions regarding the formation of information and digital competence of future teachers in the process of studying the informatics disciplines is considered. The article explores the ways of development and the conditions for the formation of information and digital competence of future educators. Information competence is considered as the ability of the student to search, to process the information received using modern technology. The studied experience testifies to the urgency of the problem of development of information and digital competency of teachers.

In the article, the concept of performance is considered as a leading communicative art practice of socialization of distinct spaces of Western Ukrainian cities. Performance studies are viewed as an effective global interdisciplinary field that views performance and uses performativity as a method of studying various cultural processes and practice of setting up and collaborating of the social groups and urbanistic spaces. In this context, performance art pieces, artistic projects, political actionism and other cultural practices and experiences are presented on the examples of actionism of Western Ukraine. Method of synthesis that helped to compare and generalize scientific sources and literature is applied; as well as the systematic method for the analysis of culturological aspects of performance and sociological method, when culture is considered as a factor in the organization of public life and the formation of the intellectual landscape. The methodology of the field research gave the work practical significance, due to the use of valuable photography materials, memories of the participants of performative practices. Observing the organization of the performance allowed to examine its reflexive effect on the audience. Performance studies are an important discipline that can be useful for all groups of the socio-cultural urban landscape. Studies of performance allow us to understand distinct world cultures or to evaluate our own behavior critically. Artists frequently develop their intuitive abilities through performance, look for hidden meanings in familiar objects and actions. The practice or contemplation of the performance by the consumers of the culture of “bread and spectacles” (Latin: panem et circenses) may consist in understanding one’s own assessment of the circumstances, comparing it with the perception of others, perhaps by changing one’s position. Government institutions have the opportunity to master additional resources to gain understanding of distinct environments of the city and at the same time to acquire effective methods of personnel management.

The methods of application of information and communication technologies are considered in the article. Their role in the formation of interdisciplinary links in the process of training teachers of vocational training of students majoring in 015 Vocational Education «Woodworking». The main approaches to the study of ICT in the system of professional pedagogical training are described. Scientific and methodological sources of research of various aspects of the use of information technologies and teaching aids on the problems of pedagogical and professional education are analyzed. The work of most scientists was carried out in the direction of the use of ICT in the study of individual educational components. The structure and content of the system of studying ICT tools in the disciplines «Information technology and teaching aids», «Descriptive geometry, drawings», «Fundamentals of computer-aided design of wood products» are determined. On the basis of own experience the technique of realization of interdisciplinary communications at a choice of subjects of tasks for laboratory and graphic works from the specified educational components is offered. The method of planning laboratory works is revealed, which provides for the drawing of products by means of ICT for their further realization in the material within two or more disciplines. An example of this task in the development of a furniture product (flag stand) and its production in the material in the interdisciplinary relationship «Fundamentals of CAD of wood products» and «Technology of furniture production». It is established that this approach provides a combination of theory and practice, significant time savings and intensification of the educational process and improves its quality as a whole.
