The relevance of this article is determined by the acceleration of modern migration processes, which on the one hand, have positive aspects (close business cooperation, educational exchanges, etc.), and on the other hand, negative consequences, expressed in the extremely rapid spread of very dangerous diseases (for example, the current situation with coronavirus strains), which causes the necessity not only for joint activities of medical and social institutions for the prevention of epidemics, but also for educational institutions, it allows to activate subjective factors through education of an individual's social responsibility, his conscious attitude to his own health. The authors investigate the phenomenon of health as a key component of higher education.

The article justifies for the need to identify and to keep track, in practice, of different groups of risks inherent in educational institutions under current conditions of pandemic and post-pandemic transformation of education under the influence of modern world uncertainty. Transformation of education functions in the epoch of digital economy changes the content and types of risks concomitant to the activities carried out by schools. Schools belong to the most conservative types of organizations. However, the environment in which schools operate is constantly changing. An educational institution, as any enterprise, has to engage in the activity aimed at risk management. Manifestation of the risk is, on the one hand, fraught with threats and damage, on the other hand, with opportunities. Assessment of possible threats and risks allows timely projection of undesirable results, creation of a system for situational response to unforeseen circumstances and, in the final analysis, formulation of a strategy for development of the university which would allow achievement of modern high quality education, its fundamentality and conformity to important topical requirements of the personality, society and state. Causes of developing risks characteristic of educational institutions are disclosed. External and internal risks characteristic of educational institutions, sources generating them and the importance of managing them are analyzed. The analysis of risks made reveals multi-varied threats and opportunities in the external and internal envi-ronment of the institution and their ability to have a significant effect on educational, organizational and financial activities of the schools.

Ставится вопрос о том, как вовлекать преподавателей педагогического университета в исследовательскую деятельность и применять результаты этой деятельности в образовательном процессе вуза. Показано, чем вовлеченность как высшее проявление субъектности человека отличается от активности. Выделены два уровня вовлеченности: уровень участия в деятельности и уровень влияния на ее содержание, протекание и результаты. Обоснованы сложности, возникающие у преподавателя, который пытается продолжать заниматься наукой после защиты диссертации. Это противоречие между высокой степенью исследовательской свободы и автономности, с одной стороны, и необходимостью ответственности и самоорганизации в исследовательском поиске – с другой. Выделены факторы, определяющие вовлеченность в исследование: исследовательская «зоркость», участие в образовательных инновациях и изучение их эффектов, постоянная обратная связь педагога со студентами для корректировки профессиональных проб и усиления их образовательных результатов. Делается вывод о необходимости и возможности преподавателей влиять на формирование актуальной научной повестки и тем самым обогащать образовательное содержание профессиональной подготовки будущих педагогов. The question is raised about how to involve teachers of a pedagogical University in research activities and apply the results of this activity in the educational process of the University. It is shown how involvement as the highest manifestation of human subjectivity differs from activity. Two levels of involvement are identified: the level of participation in the activity and the level of influence on its content, course and results. The author substantiates the difficulties that arise for a teacher who tries to continue studying science after defending his dissertation. This is a contradiction between a high degree of research freedom and autonomy, on the one hand, and the need for responsibility and self-organization in research search, on the other. The factors that determine involvement in research are highlighted: research “vigilance”, participation in educational innovations and studying their effects, constant feedback from the teacher with students to adjust professional tests and enhance their educational results. The author draws attention to the fact that one’s own research trajectory can be interpreted as a kind of educational trajectory of a University teacher. It is concluded that it is necessary and possible for teachers to influence the formation of a relevant scientific agenda for them and thereby enrich the educational content of professional training of future teachers.

Актуальность статьи обусловлена тем, что в современных условиях конкурентной среды работодатели становятся центром потребления выпускников высших учебных заведений. Однако на протяжении последних десятилетий система высшего образования не соответствует запросам своей целевой аудитории – социума и рынка труда. Рынок труда на сегодняшний день невозможно прогнозировать, наше общество все еще находится на этапе реформирования и часто социально-экономическая сфера страдает от несистемных трансформаций. Из-за увеличения информационного потока, глобализации и цифровизации происходят качественные изменения на рынке труда, перевес специалистов одних направлений подготовки при колоссальном дефиците других. Выпускники остаются невостребованными после получения диплома. Безусловно, те специалисты, которые уже имеют высшее образование, встают на траекторию постоянного обучения, но имеющиеся проблемы формируют гигантский провал между сторонами одной системы – вузом, работодателями и самими выпускниками. Часто работодатели проявляют излишне высокие требования к выпускникам. Компетенции будущих финансовых менеджеров формируются иногда без учета потребности в реальном секторе. Потребители системы высшего образования остаются не удовлетворены качеством выпускников, производители не имеют связи со сферой рынка труда для обеспечения нужными компетенциями. Кадровая политика большинства российских организаций ориентирована в основном на достижение текущих результатов, а не на перспективное развитие; вузы же должны строить свой учебный процесс на перспективу, готовя специалистов с ориентацией на опережающий спрос на рабочую силу. Возникает разрыв между двумя системами, которые должны работать в прочной связке. Отсутствует государственное регулирование прямой и обратной связи между рынком образовательных услуг и запросами работодателей. Поэтому данные виды коллаборации необходимо продумывать самим вузам либо работодателям. Автором проведено исследование работодателей, выявившее основные формы и показатели коллаборации вузовской системы и работодателей. Определены уровень потенциальной вовлеченности в систему сотрудничества с работодателями, возможные варианты и направления совместной деятельности в области набора студентов, организации практики и формирования компетенций для повышения эффективности. Статья предназначена для руководителей образовательных организаций, преподавателей, работодателей. Today employers are the center of consumption for university graduates. But over the past decades, the higher education system has discrepancy for its target audience - society and the labor market. It is impossible to predict the progress of labor market, our society is still at the stage of reforming. The socio-economic sphere suffers from non-systemic transformations. Qualitative changes are taking place in the labor market, the preponderance of specialists in some areas of training, while there is a colossal shortage of other specialists. Graduates remain unclaimed after graduation. Graduates are embarking on a continuous learning trajectory, but problems create a gap between the parties of the same system - the university, employers and graduates. Often employers show excessively high demands on graduates. The competencies of future financial managers are building up without taking into account the need for the real sector. Consumers of the higher education system remain dissatisfied with the quality of graduates, manufacturers have no connection with the labor market to provide the necessary competencies. The personnel policy of most Russian organizations is focused mainly on achieving current results without long-term development. Universities should build their educational process for the future based on labor`s demands. There is a gap between the two systems, which must work in a strong bond. There is no government regulation of direct and feedback between the educational services market and employers' requests. Therefore, universities should make collaborations with employers by themselves. The author conducted a study of employers, which revealed the main forms and indicators of collaboration between the university system and employers. The level of potential involvement in the system of cooperation with employers, possible options and directions of joint activities in the field of student recruitment, organization of practice and the formation of competencies to improve efficiency have been determined. The article is intended for heads of educational organizations, teachers, employers.

One of the numerous negative consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic is the "second epidemic" of negative psychological effects. Population stress in modern conditions can serve as a catalyst for mental disorders of teachers and students. In the present situation, restrictive and special measures should be considered as additional harmful socio-biological factors for participants of the university educational process.

Abstract This introduction to the special issue “Educational Undergrowth” proposes an ecological view of educational institutions and practices, one that foregrounds the porosity of borders so that entities and institutions that can sometimes seem distinct are thought of as always entangled. The editors elaborate this ecological view by drawing on theories of coloniality, especially the work of Sylvia Wynter (and her human/Man distinction) and Stefano Harney and Fred Moten (in The Undercommons). In this framing, the university appears as a specific, but not isolated, part of a colonial ecology structured around producing Man. This allows both for critical accounts of how coloniality shapes institutions such as schools and universities, always in relation to many other institutions and sites, and for speculative experiments in queer, decolonial, abolitionist education. The introduction intervenes in contemporary leftist debates about the university in particular and education more generally by offering a way of attuning to critical, abolitionist, and decolonial projects as specific but intraactive outgrowths of the colonial ecology and myriad disruptive projects (happening both in and outside of institutionalized schools). On the one hand, educational undergrowth accounts for how resources circulate unevenly in the colonial ecology so that the “growth” of some people, institutions, and projects is possible only because others are deprived, defunded, and disinvited. On the other hand, it draws on affect theory, new materialisms, and work in decolonial and critical ethnic studies to valorize otherwise marginal, bewildering, errant educational encounters that are always taking place in the undergrowth of the university.

The article considers aspects of pedagogical partnership between participants in the educational process in educational institutions and preschool institutions as an effective factor of interaction. The article analyzes the principles, opportunities and ways of partnership pedagogy as a system of effective interaction between teachers, educators and parents for the purpose of personal development of participants in the educational process. The concepts of "partnership", "partnership pedagogy", "social institutions" in the system of relations between all participants in the educational process (teachers, future educators, employees of preschool educational institutions, parents) are revealed. The paper focuses on the criteria that determine the effectiveness of the idea of developing partnership relations as the most productive system of relations in the context of pedagogical interaction. The article highlights the social and pedagogical partnership as a separate form of social interaction of an educational institution with individuals and the importance of the determining role of a higher educational institution in the implementation of its personal and developmental functions in the training of future educators, which includes family, teachers, and the administration of educational institutions. The article considers the purpose and objectives of social and pedagogical partnership as the establishment of partnership relations between participants in the educational process to determine the value orientations of joint activities and ways to achieve partnership. The issues of organization and social and pedagogical partnership as the most effective form of involving parents in the structure of technology, designing a model of partnership interaction between educational institutions and family in the training of future educators are outlined and justified.

AbstractThe ‘world-class university’ has become a trope of two rivalrous perspectives. On the one hand, it is used by cross-national and national organizations and institutions (and their leaders) to promote global positioning and achievement. On the other hand, it is deployed as a target of critique by scholars, it being observed that the term – ‘world-class university’ – presses interests, of cognitive capitalism, institutional entrepreneurialism and hierarchy amongst universities. Much less evident in these rivalrous discourses is an attempt to derive a way of holding onto the term – ‘world-class university’ – that retains links with core values of the university itself, such as those of reason, inquiry, understanding, and learning. I wish to use my chapter to mount such an inquiry and to do so by deploying an ecological approach. The university is interconnected with the world in manifold ways, through multiple ecosystems, but those ecosystems –such as those of knowledge, learning, social institutions, persons, the economy, culture and the natural environment – are impaired. Accordingly, could it not be suggested that a ‘world-class university’ would be one that draws on its resources in advancing the wellbeing of the major ecosystems of the world? Such a university would be a university in a class-of-and-for-the-world.

The paper discusses the status of philosophy in the context of the increasing commercialization of higher education, which turns the university into a business. It shows that the neoliberal policy of the commercialization of higher education changes the structure of the educational process dramatically and brings humanism as an educational model inextricably linked with the development of humanitarian disciplines to the limit. In the era of capitalization of knowledge, the principle of utilitarianism becomes dominant. The paper gives reasons for the need to overcome the neoliberal tendency of the educational process dehumanization and return to humanitarian disciplines, which preserve the culture of human thinking in today’s world. The paper finds that the construction of the process of university education according to the being-in-place model actualizes thinking, which brings an individual back from the inertia of non-thinking existence. The paper describes specificity of philosophy as a practice of thinking and language which preserves the foundations of human existence and develops the hermeneutic type of thinking of an individual as “persona”. The hermeneutic type of thinking is focused on a person’s self-understanding of oneself as a personality. At the same time, it contributes to understanding the Other, a dialogue with whom opens up the opportunity not only to look at oneself in a different way, but also to understand the “point of view” of the Other, thereby opening up a different horizon of seeing the world in general.

AbstractOrganisations are becoming increasingly flexible in staffing, often using a small core of permanent staff and a peripheral contingent of contract, casual and temporary employees. Recent Australian and overseas studies suggest that this is also true in the higher education sector, with a casualisation of the academic workforce, particularly in the lecturer and below range. This is creating a large group of marginalised academics, the majority of whom are women. Such academics' opportunities may be limited because of the values implicit in the university culture. The possibility of a model of permanent academics on the one hand and a ‘casual’ underclass on the other has the potential to cause significant problems and to affect the quality of education provided.
