“…The field of free self-determination is wide. In the early stages of personal development, this choice is very difficult (Koch, Dirsch-Weigand, Awolin, Pinkelman, & Hampe, 2017). In our opinion, the task of the state is to help in the main thing: in the formation and development of social consciousness of the future specialist, in understanding of the social and professional significance.…”

The article is devoted to the problem of value-semantic foundations of vocational education as significant components of professionalization in the conditions of social transformation. Based on the results of the study, the authors reveal contradictions in the formation and development of values among the younger generation. On the back of diagnostics, the article discusses the specificity of value representations of students, university teachers, school teachers. The results of the study confirm that university teachers do not believe in the development of the student as a citizen and do not work on it. Also, by graduation from the university, students experience a crisis in acceptance of the values of the professional community, that is, they are not only unprepared to form a system of values in other people, but they themselves have not understood their system of values. At the same time, school teachers recognize that they need additional knowledge for development of schoolchildren's values. Consequently, to increase the level of professional identity of university graduates, the process of forming the values of the professional pedagogical community among students should be accelerated, and the special role in this aspect belongs to the university teacher. To solve this problem, systematic organization of the process of lifelong education using the whole arsenal of tools of the competency-based approach is necessary.

“…De la recuperación de documentos de investigación sobre la evaluación de la interdisciplinariedad, se consideraron diez investigaciones realizadas entre el 2011 y 2017 que tuvieran el objetivo de medir diversos factores de la interdisciplinariedad en diferentes contextos educativos. Posteriormente se identificaron y clasificaron las dimensiones propuestas por dichas aportaciones de acuerdo a la naturaleza de su objeto de estudio, englobándolas en tres dimensiones sugeridas en concordancia a la evaluación hecha sobre el desarrollo de competencias: a) evaluación del conocimiento: Reconocimiento de perspectivas disciplinares (Lattuca et al, 2013), experiencia holística de aprendizaje y aprendizaje interdisciplinario (Self y Baek, 2017), experiencia interdisciplinaria en el laboratorio (Walczak y Van Wylen, 2015), requerimiento curricular y estructura organizacional para la interdisciplinariedad (Knight et al, 2012) y la escala de interdisciplinariedad (Cezarino et al, 2015); b) evaluación de habilidades: habilidades interdisciplinarias (Lattuca et al, 2013), pensamiento interdisciplinario (Liu et al, 2011), pensamiento crítico y necesidad de cognición (Lattuca et al, 2017); y c) evaluación de actitudes: comportamiento reflexivo (Lattuca et al, 2013), actitudes positivas hacia la alfabetización (Lattuca et al, 2017), pensamiento reflexivo (Tutticci et al, 2016), capacidad interdisciplinaria, relaciones interpersonales, autonomía y compromiso académico (Koch et al, 2017), y colaboración interdisciplinaria (Miles y Rainbird, 2015).…”

“…De este primer filtro, se tomaron en cuenta 64 reactivos pertenecientes a cinco aportaciones de la literatura, clasificados por sus respectivos autores en las siguientes dimensiones: medición de competencias de interdisciplinariedad (Lattuca et al, 2013), experiencia (interdisciplinaria) en espacios de laboratorio (Walczak y Van Wylen, 2015), evaluación de proyectos interdisciplinarios (Koch et al, 2017), experiencia de aprendizaje holístico (Self y Baek, 2017) y pensamiento reflexivo (Tutticci et al, 2017). Del listado de reactivos originales de las fuentes antes mencionadas se llevó a cabo un ejercicio de lectura en el idioma original para evaluar la posibilidad de sustitución de especificidad contextual e intensión de cada enunciado, considerando que se elaboraría un instrumento aplicable a cualquier estudiante universitario independientemente del área disciplinar en la que se desempeñara.…”

Este estudio presenta la construcción y validación (análisis de confiabilidad y validez) de un instrumento de medición de la percepción sobre la interdisciplinariedad para estudiantes universitarios. Se contó con la participación de 279 estudiantes de diversos programas académicos y cursando alguna materia de segundo año de educación superior. El instrumento consiste en trece reactivos evaluados en escala Likert (coeficiente de alfa de Cronbach=0.704), clasificados en tres dimensiones relativas a la percepción de competencias para la interdisciplinariedad (mostrando correlación de Pearson moderada para cada dimensión). Este trabajo aporta un test validado para medir la percepción que tienen los estudiantes de cualquier campo disciplinar sobre la integración del conocimiento en su experiencia educativa. El uso de este instrumento provee argumentos sobre la relevancia del enfoque interdisciplinario en la formación universitaria.

“…Forms of PBL organization and implementation are numerous. It develops creativity and independent learning in students, fulfil students' need for competence, enhances their academic engagement and, in general, increases the effectiveness of the educational process [1,2]. This is especially significant against the background of contemporary youth's low interest and even apathy toward science and general education, their perception and attitudes toward science [3][4][5].…”

The paper describes the organization of undergraduate student research activities based on the model of mentorship. The authors explain how the mentoring model can be used for developing primary research skills and competencies. The range of skills required for effective participation in scientific research is determined. The authors propose some principles of constructing the model of mentorship. The functions of main participants of the scientific researchjunior students, students-mentors, and teachersare discussed. The paper describes the mentor training programme offered at the Ural State University of Economics (Ekaterinburg, Russia). The efficiency of the mentoring model is exemplified by the interdisciplinary research project combining analytical chemistry and IT. The conclusion is made that the mentoring model could be adopted for planning and organizing scientific research in different areas of studies and in various educational institutions.
