The Impact of the War in Ukraine on the Emotional well-being of Students in the Learning Process
Background: The research is devoted to the current problem – the emotional well-being of students in learning in the war conditions in Ukraine.
Objective: To study the state of the emotional well-being of students in the process of learning during the war, to identify the factors of emotional well-being in the learning process, and to determine the ways to ensure it in the conditions of war.
Methods: А questionnaire developed by the authors of the article and a method of assessing mental activation, interest, emotional tone, tension, and comfort (L. Kurgansky T. Nemchyn).
The study's results made it possible to find out the impact of the war on the emotional well-being of students and compare the state of the emotional well-being of students during education in peacetime and during the war. Indicators of interest in learning and comfort decreased, and indicators of emotional tension and mental activation increased in students. It is established that the emotional well-being of students in the learning process depends on the nature of the pedagogical interaction, the ability of the teacher to create a situation of success for each student, the level of anxiety of students in the process of including them in educational activities, and the characteristics of the relationship with classmates.
Conclusions: The observed negative trends in the emotional well-being of students during the war became the basis for determining the methods of correctional work in order to help children cope with the experience of war
Key sources when formulating competitive advantages for hotel chains
Th is paper's purpose was to identify the key sources when formulating competitive advantages of hotel
chains. Th e research assessed the fi nancial activities performance included in annual hospitality industry
reports and on their offi cial websites; questioning of loyal and potential customers; the fi ve-point
Likert scale and the Pearson correlation coeffi cient were applied to understand the possible consumer
reaction to a certain competitive advantage or its absence. Th e paper confi rms the eff ectiveness of
key sources used by management to win and retain competitive advantages: despite strong dependence
on the economic cycle phase etc., after the devastating crisis of 2007, 2008, but also to achieve
sustainable growth. All the networks examined over the last decade have expanded their presence in
international markets, diversifi ed the portfolio of brands, increased the number of jobs and profi ts.
It was also proved that the opinion of the fi nal consumer is still not suffi ciently taken into account in
the assessment of the Pearson correlation coeffi cient (the latter allowed the authors to propose their
own defi nition of the competitive advantage in the industry). Th e paper attempts for the fi rst time
to consider the competitive advantages of hotel chains from the point of view not only of theorists
and business practitioners, but also with the view of the opinion of the services consumer; there were
identifi ed the discrepancies, which consideration would allow to increase the level of guest satisfaction
and, accordingly, the effi ciency of the hotel business. In future papers, the authors plan to verify the
existence of a correlation between the degree of guest loyalty to a particular hotel network and the
main fi nancial results of its activities
The Concept of Professional Reflection in Ukrainian Psycho-Pedagogical Literature: Regard or Disregard for Neurophysiological Factors?
The article analyzes the problem of developing professional reflection in Ukrainian and foreign psycho-pedagogical literature. It shows that such definitions as “reflection”, “professional reflection” and “teacher’s professional reflection” are interconnected in the context of general, special and specific features. A detailed review of current neurocognitive approaches has made it possible to determine the main aspects of biological mechanisms of reflection. One can see that Ukrainian psycho-pedagogical discourse does not consider neurophysiological aspects of shaping and developing professional reflection. Given the views of Ukrainian researchers on the matter, teacher’s professional reflection is seen as the correlation of their capabilities with the requirements of the teaching profession; a set of internal conditions for reaching a new level of professional performance; a certain technology of objective analysis and organization of one’s experience, as well as understanding and use of others’ experience. Together, they determine a values-based attitude towards the teaching profession. However, Ukrainian methodology employs diagnostic tools which partially rely on the lateral features of the actors in the educational process and, thus, neuroscientific insights.</p
