Establishment and Organization of Activities of Professional School at Lebedyn St. Nikolas Convent of Kyiv Eparchy (the second half of the 19th – the beginning of the 20th century)

The purpose of the research paper is to study the contribution of Lebedyn St. Nikolas Convent of Kyiv Eparchy to the development of woman’s education in Ukraine in the second half of the 19th – the beginning of the 20th century and the peculiarities of the establishment and organization of the woman’s professional school at it. Scientific novelty. The contribution of Lebedyn St. Nikolas Convent and its reverend mothers to the development of education at the regional level is analyzed in the paper. The history of Lebedyn Women’s Professional School establishment is highlighted, and the stages of its activity and the level of material support from the convent are characterized. Attention is paid to the peculiarities of the educational process organization, as well as the staff composition and the formation of the female pupils’ contingent of the school. Conclusions. Four stages can be distinguished in the history of Lebedyn Women’s Professional School: 1859-1872 – establishment and development of a four-grade school; 1872-1886 – activities of a sixth-grade school; 1888-1890 – establishment of a two-grade women’s school; 1890-1918 – a two-grade, four-year women’s theological (professional) school. The history of the school shows that it was a fully formed educational institution with a distinctive management system, proper staffing, and teaching and educational process. The school aimed to give children a practically useful education. Learners mastered crafts, the basics of art, and various labor specialties that could have been useful in their future life. The process and methods of teaching were interconnected with spiritual and religious education. It is uncovered that the deterioration of the school’s financial situation and the lack of support from the state for such educational institutions made the convent leadership close the sixth-grade women’s school in 1886. In 1888, a two-grade women’s school of the type of two-grade parochial schools with a four-year term of study was established on its base. Since 1890, a two-grade, four-year women’s spiritual (professional) school had been functioning at the convent, the educational process of which ensured learners mastered the program of four-grade of the women’s eparchy school and various types of women’s needlework. Lebedyn St. Nikolas Second-Class Convent played an important role in supporting women’s education development on the territory of Kyiv Eparchy in the second half of the 19th – the beginning of the 20th century, and the school established by it made opportunities for orphans and children of the poor strata of society from the neighboring povits to get the education and begin professional training

Działalność charytatywna klasztorów eparchii kijowskiej w drugiej połowie XIX i w początkach XX stulecia

The article deals with charitable activities of Kyiv eparchy monasteries and convents during the second half of the 19th century and the early 20th century. It shows that charitable activities of the Orthodox church reached its peak in the post-reform period. The charitable activities within the specified time frame lay in the provision of schools, hospitals, orphanages, almshouses, and hotels for the poor and pilgrims. Kyiv eparchy monasteries and convents a) distributed alms, organized free lunches, provided material and medical assistance, b) handled education issues by establishing parish schools, c) supported almshouses by aiding sick people, lonely elderly people, people with special needs, and the mentally ill. At the beginning of World War I, Kyiv eparchy monasteries and convents became actively involved in the provision of assistance to the population, as well as the establishment and maintenance of shelters for children (orphans) of fallen soldiers. Such children were provided with proper care and timely medical assistance. Charitable institutions at the premises of Kyiv eparchy monasteries and convents operated at the expense of funds received from their economic activities, as well as donations from private individuals. Kyiv eparchy monasteries and convents  comprised the greatest number of hospitals and almshouses of all those operating in the territory of the then Kyiv Governorate.Artykuł dotyczy działalności charytatywnej klasztorów eparchii kijowskiej w drugiej połowie XIX i na początku XX w.

The fate of the orthodox church under the conditions of the new soviet law implementation 1920 – 1930

У 20­х рр. минулого століття спостерігалося намагання різних верств українського суспільства повернути церковній організації національні ознаки. Взаємовідносини радянської держави і Православної церкви викликали й викликають неабиякий інтерес як у вітчизняних, так і зарубіжних дослідників. Останнім часом помітно зріс інтерес науковців до проблеми державно­церковних відносин в Україні. Тому виникла необхідність дослідити радянське законодавство в перші десятиліття перебування більшовиків при владі, яке безпосередньо стосувалося та впливало на державно­церковні відносини в Україні.Одним із найважливіших знарядь більшовицької держави, за допомогою якого вона мала намір здійснити революційні перетворення у сфері державно­церковних відносин, було радянське право. Перші законодавчі акти радянської влади підірвали соціальну та економічну базу Церкви. Радянським законодавством оголошувалося про відокремлення церкви від держави і визначалися конкретні заходи для втілення цього законодавства в життя. Для радянської держави всі засоби відокремлення стали надзвичайно важливим етапом у справі усунення Церкви зі сфери економічного і політичного життя суспільства.Сформоване радянською владою законодавство по відокремленню церкви від держави було спрямоване на формування досить широкого кола правовідносин, визначало різноманітний об’єктивний склад цих правовідносин, різні превентивні, регулятивні, охоронні заходи та різні способи правового регулювання.У 20­х рр. минулого століття спостерігалося намагання різних верств українського суспільства повернути церковній організації національні ознаки.

The relationship between the Soviet state and the Orthodox Church has caused a great interest among both national and foreign researchers. In these latter days considerably increased the interest of scientists to the problem of Church­state relations in Ukraine. Therefore there was a need to explore the Soviet legislation in the first decades of the Bolsheviks stay in power, which is directly concerned and affected the state­Church relations in Ukraine.One of the most important tools of the Bolshevik state was Soviet law which had intended to carry out a revolution in the sphere of state­Church relations. The first legislative acts of the Soviet power blew up the social and economic base of the Church. Soviet law was declared on the separation of Church from state and defined specific measures to implement this legislation in life.For the Soviet state all tools of the separation became an important stage in removing the Church from the sphere of economic and political life of the society.Formed by the Soviet regime legislation on separation of Church and state was aimed at the formation of a rather wide range of legal relationships, defined variety objective of these legal relations, various preventive, regulatory, enforcement activities and the different methods of legal regulation

The CDIO-FCDI-FFCD Rubrics for Evaluation of Three-Cycle Engineering Programs

The aim of the paper is to propose Rubrics for self-evaluation of graduate and postgraduate engineering programs based on the FCDI (Forecast, Conceive, Design, Implement) Standards and FFCD (Foresight, Forecast, Conceive, Design) Standards by analogy with Rubrics for self-evaluation of undergraduate engineering programs based on the CDIO (Conceive, Design, Implement, Operate) Standards. The FCDI Standards and FFCD Standards were developed for Master’s and Doctoral engineering programs as a result of the CDIO approach evolution and by analogy with the CDIO Standards originally developed for Bachelor’s engineering programs. The CDIO/FCDI/FFCD Standards are recommended for the design and implementation of three-cycle engineering programs to train graduates for complex, innovative and research engineering activities, respectively, taking into account the features of the division of labor in the engineering profession. The 6-level scale Rubrics are helpful for evaluation the degree of Bachelor’s, Master’s and Doctoral engineering programs compliance with the recommendations of the CDIO, FCDI and FFCD Standards, respectively
