The proposed model and methods provide a basis for further research and practical application in the educational field.

the article discusses the specifics of training tenor performers in the system of higher vocal and vocal-pedagogical education in the territory of the modern People's Republic of China. Tenor is a high male voice in the art of bel canto. Bel canto is not a traditional vocal technique for China; it was brought in modern times, just over a hundred years ago. Opera performance of bel canto has undergone a long process of adaptation to Chinese realities; at present, thanks to the activities of many Chinese performers and teachers, a unique system of training bel canto tenors has been developed that fully considers the features of the Chinese language and culture, as well as the specifics of traditional Chinese music. Nevertheless, there are some problems, among which the article reveals the following: insufficiently high-quality adaptation of the bel canto technique to the features of the Chinese language, a small number of works by Chinese composers in the academic repertoire, as well as difficulties in teaching tenors a healthy lifestyle. At the end of the article, recommendations are provided aimed at effectively solving these problems. Although the art of bel canto, and in particular tenor singing, is currently underdeveloped, it is nevertheless rapidly and steadily developing and has considerable potential for further growth and improvement in the future.

the study is devoted to the issue of forming cadets' sustainable motivation for self-education of moral and volitional qualities. The presented material examines the key factors influencing motivation, and proposes strategies for the teaching staff of educational institutions of the Ministry of Defense, aimed at forming sustainable motivation for self-improvement. In the process of training specialists in educational institutions of the Ministry of Defense, the basis for moral and volitional improvement is formed, but it often does not develop a sustainable internal desire for self-education in these areas. Cadets can demonstrate external obedience, without fully realizing the need for constant self-improvement. This can lead to inconsistency in behavior, a decrease in leadership potential and a weakening of the ethical framework in various conditions of service activity. Cadets must perceive their moral and volitional development as a result of their own choice and efforts, and not external influence or requirements. The issues of forming a sustainable motivation for self-education of moral and volitional qualities in cadets have been and remain relevant. By eliminating factors that negatively affect motivation and implementing its purposeful formation, educational institutions of the Ministry of Defense prepare commanders with the ethical fortitude and strong character necessary to cope with the hardships and deprivations of military service and educate the entrusted personnel. The following tasks were solved in the course of the study: – analysis of moral and volitional qualities necessary in the service activities of a specialist of the Ministry of Defense; – analysis of issues of formation of motivation for self-education of moral and volitional qualities. The results obtained during the study can be applied in the organization of educational work with cadets of educational institutions of the Ministry of Defense.

this article addresses the pressing issue of integrating mindfulness practices into the system of professional pedagogical education as a tool for preparing future educators in the context of increasing demands and the transformation of education. The aim of the research is to theoretically justify and develop a model for the implementation of mindfulness practices in the professional training of educators capable of effectively working with Generation Alpha. The research methodology is based on the integration of the mindfulness concept as a metacognitive process and a model of self-regulation in professional activity, including Shapiro's theory with three key mechanisms: intention, attention, and attitude, as well as Bishop's two-component model. The paper systematizes the mechanisms by which mindfulness practices influence the professional development of educators, including the development of emotional intelligence, cognitive flexibility, self-regulation skills, and resilience to stress. Special attention is given to the analysis of the exposure mechanism as an empirically validated method for dealing with professional stress. The research findings demonstrate the effectiveness of a phased implementation of mindfulness practices through a self-regulation cycle and confirm their positive impact on reducing professional burnout, developing empathy, and enhancing metacognitive skills. Based on the analysis conducted, methodological recommendations for integrating mindfulness practices into the educational process of pedagogical universities and colleges have been developed, including a model for proactive training of educators using Foresight technology and strengthening the practical component through pre-professional practice.

the formation of communicative competence of foreign students while studying at Russian universities can only be achieved with the rational organization of educational activities. Oftentimes first-year students have a low level of proficiency in Russian, as a result, it is necessary to look for effective methodological tools for their successful training. The purpose of the study is to develop methodological recommendations on the organization of various types of educational activities when teaching the "Introductory Life Safety Course" to foreign students. Research objectives: 1) To develop an adapted curriculum for the "Introductory Life Safety Course". 2) To identify effective methodological techniques for enhancing the educational and cognitive activities of Chinese students. According to the results of the study, it was found that the integrated application of various methods has shown high efficiency in teaching foreign students, including in order to enhance educational and cognitive activities. A set of methodological techniques may include the use of object-visual tools, the organization of game activities, the use of practical methods to find algorithms for actions in specific dangerous situations, and elements of heuristic methods. These methodological techniques can be applied at the stage of pre-university training of foreign students and implemented in elective courses for foreign students studying in Russia at the 1st year in pedagogical and other specialties.

the scientific article reveals the issue of analyzing the sports classification of cadets and trainees participating in service-applied sports (using the example of the SIBU of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia). The significance of the study lies in determining the level of athletic skills among cadets and trainees engaged in service-applied sports using their sports classification. Sports grades and titles for each athlete are one of the important factors of motivation in practicing their chosen sport. This allows the athlete to set a goal that needs to be accomplished during preparation for an official sporting event. In addition, during the preparation for the competition, the coach can adjust the athlete's training process, which will bring him to his maximum peak and prevent overtraining. Therefore, sports classification not only provides an incentive for an athlete to perform one or another category, but also allows people to engage in sports. Sports training in the system of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia plays one of the key roles in the training of highly qualified employees. In this regard, service-applied sports allow not only to increase the level of physical and psychological fitness, but also to perform various sports categories and ranks.

serious applied successes, narrow specialization of modern science and the emergence of new areas of scientific activity raise urgent questions about the procedure of mathematical training of highly qualified engineering and technical personnel. At the same time, narrow specialization serves as a certain internal restraining factor in the development of technologies, since the lack of mutual understanding between specialists in related fields leads to a misunderstanding of the unified mechanisms of phenomena. Therefore, there are big problems in teaching mathematics to future engineers: the development of its own "jargon" in each narrow specialty prevents a holistic perception of the picture. Taking into account modern features in teaching mathematics is becoming an extremely urgent problem. In this regard, the article considers issues of teaching mathematics that allow achieving high-quality assimilation of universal mathematical knowledge that should not depend on the area of their practical application. Our concept boils down to the fact that all the diversity of phenomena of the material macrocosm is described with varying degrees of accuracy, by means of mathematics, and in order to extract the most effective research methods, it is necessary to understand it as a single science that has a powerful axiomatic foundation. Such an understanding allows us to adequately translate any practical problem into the language of mathematics, thereby obtaining a full-fledged tool for theoretical or empirical scientific research.

the article discusses the issues of formation and development of selfhood, which is an important aspect of modern human existence, contributing to both personal well-being and successful adaptation to changing life conditions. The concept of selfhood as a key element in healthy personality development is analyzed. It is noted that by developing selfhood, a person becomes more confident, purposeful, and capable of self-realization. It is argued that foreign language classes at a technical university can serve as a platform for the development of students' selfhood, helping them not only master the language but also develop important personal qualities necessary for successful professional activity. It is emphasized that during foreign language classes, the development of selfhood can be achieved through various types of activities such as role-playing games, discussions, project work, and others. These methods help students recognize their strengths and weaknesses, learn to make decisions, and take responsibility for their actions. The conclusion is drawn that the development of selfhood while studying a foreign language helps engineering students become more confident professionals who are able to successfully work in multicultural environments and solve complex problems. The materials from this study can be used for further development of methods and techniques aimed at fostering self-identity among engineering students during foreign language classes, which is an important step towards their successful professional careers. Additionally, these findings contribute to developing modern approaches to the issue of selfhood and its formation across various age groups.

in modern conditions, there is an acute problem of insufficient physical fitness and development among students, caused by a reduction in their physical activity. This situation is especially critical for girls, as they often have various health problems [1]. One of the key reasons is low motivation for systematic physical education. In the context of solving this problem, the introduction of forms of physical activity that can attract and retain the interest of female students is becoming relevant. Research shows that the most effective direction in this context is the types of health-improving gymnastics based on complex exercises for the whole body. This approach demonstrates significant potential in health promotion [2, 3, 4]. As part of the study, 58 1st-year female students at TOGU engaged in recreational gymnastics in optional classes twice a week, for two hours during the entire 2023-2024 academic year. The results were impressive: 97% of female students attended classes regularly, and 95% expressed a desire to continue classes after graduation. The study showed that the main anthropometric indicators (height, body weight, chest circumference) did not change significantly, but there was a tendency to decrease body weight, which may indicate positive changes in the body composition of female students. The body mass index (BMI) remained within the normal range (about 21 kg/m2) throughout the experiment, which confirms the absence of obesity and compliance with WHO recommendations. The improvement in performance was especially noticeable in functional tests and physical fitness tests, where the girls showed significant progress. The aim of the study was to study the effect of recreational gymnastics on the physical development and motor fitness of female students. The methodology included the measurement of anthropometric indicators, testing of physical qualities and statistical data processing. The results confirm that recreational gymnastics helps to increase interest in physical education, improve the physical condition and strengthen the health of female students, which is a priority in the work of higher educational institutions.

a professional social worker provides assistance in solving the social problems of combat veterans (disability, difficult life situation, etc.). It is important to organize the professional training of future social workers so that students develop not only theoretical knowledge, but also practical skills. In order to develop students' practical skills in providing social support to combat veterans, we have identified pedagogical conditions aimed at developing future social workers' professional readiness to perform work functions based on the application of case studies. The case studies developed by us are aimed at developing students' professional and personal qualities necessary for a social worker; at working out their work functions. We have also developed diagnostic case studies aimed at identifying the level of professional readiness of students to perform work functions.

approaches to teaching Chinese as a foreign language in China have undergone significant changes over the past few decades. These changes occurred due to the growing number of foreign students, the expansion of the number of regions from which they come from, and the increasing integration of China into the global educational environment. The purpose of the study is to consider methods of teaching foreign languages in Chinese-published textbooks of Chinese as a foreign language and draw a conclusion about their relevance. The article discusses methods of teaching Chinese as a foreign language at the contemporary period. The educational complexes on Chinese as a foreign language, published in China and recommended for use by the Office for the Propagation of the Chinese Language Hanban were used as the materials for the present study. The main research methods were the analysis of academic and methodological literature and the analysis of educational complexes used for studying the Chinese as a foreign language. Based on the analysis, the author comes to several relevant conclusions. The methods of teaching foreign languages in Western countries have had a significant impact on the methods of teaching Chinese in China. Educational complexes used for studying the Chinese as a foreign language in China use modern methodological approaches to teaching foreign languages, in particular, the language immersion method, task-based learning and the gamification method. In the textbooks analyzed, the methods of teaching Chinese are constantly being improved in accordance with the latest trends in teaching foreign languages.
