The article describes the peculiarities of the use of information technology in teaching the discipline "Descriptive geometry, engineering and computer graphics". SolidWorks in combination with traditional teaching methods was used to develop professional imagination as a necessary intellectual quality of bachelors of the specialty "Road Transport", at the stage of improving the professional and moral and psychological support of the activity of the personnel of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine (SBGSU). The work combines drawing work on a drawing sheet with the use of information technologies and retains active cadet intervention in the process of creating volumetric images directly in a graphic editor. The paper demonstrates the peculiarities of the cadets' acquisition of practical skills in creating volumetric models with SolidWorks tools and the development of detail drawings. The main criteria for the selection of individual tasks are substantiated: complex nature and clearly expressed geometric orientation. The objects selected for imaginary transformations were simple geometric shapes and volumetric bodies. On the basis of the developed psychological tests the influence of the means of performing technical tasks with the use of a graphic editor on the formation and development of the professional imagination of cadets is determined. The use of SolidWorks Graphic Editor has fostered professional imagination, spatial and logical thinking, and has developed a desire for technical and professional activity which provided the opportunity to perform various technical tasks quickly and professionally and to increase the country's defense capability.
Based on the results of the analysis of command and staff training of the territorial defence units and scientific research conducted to determine approaches to the estimation of the effectiveness of military units training, a set of indicators required to estimate the effectiveness of training of territorial defence units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has been suggested. The achievement of the designated combat capabilities has been defined as an overall indicator for the effectiveness estimation. This indicator depends on the readiness to perform tasks of such components as personnel management, organizational core and units of the territorial defence brigade.
Being a measuring tool the indicator should reflect the level of the item’s specific property display. The definition of the well-grounded indicators required to estimate the separate territorial defence brigade training effectiveness is of great theoretical and practical importance. Justification of the criterion and a set of indicators required to estimate the effectiveness of training of a separate territorial defence brigade is a challenging task. In practical terms, a set of indicators required to estimate the effectiveness of training of a separate territorial defence brigade is a result of activities of the relevant social and technical systems (territorial defence structures and agencies) established to perform missions. Estimation of the effectiveness of training of a separate territorial defence brigade requires application of complex indicators which can generalise a certain amount of information and at the same time maintain the objectivity of estimation. In some cases, in particular, when dealing with new tasks, this may require synthesis (a combination of earlier identified concepts and goals), the formulation of new indicators and algorithms for their calculation. Based on the results of the analysis of command and staff training of territorial defence units and scientific research conducted to determine approaches to the estimation of the effectiveness of military units training, a set of indicators required to estimate the effectiveness of training of territorial defence units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has been suggested. The achievement of the designated combat capabilities has been defined as an overall indicator for the effectiveness estimation. This indicator depends on the readiness to perform tasks of such components as personnel management, organizational core and units of the territorial defence brigade and can be used to develop a partial methodology for the estimation of effectiveness of training the territorial defence brigade organizational core.
