El propósito del artículo es determinar la satisfacción de los graduados universitarios con la calidad de la formación en los programas educativos. La metodología de investigación se basa en las características de la calidad de la educación, que pueden expresarse en determinados indicadores cuantitativos. Tales características medibles incluyen evaluaciones cuantitativas tradicionales del nivel de conocimiento adquirido, indicadores cuantitativos de la demanda de especialistas graduados en el mercado laboral y el grado de satisfacción con la formación de los propios estudiantes. El estudio incluyó a 120 egresados del grupo ampliado de “Estudios culturales y diseño sociocultural” de los años 2018-2020. Se utilizaron los siguientes métodos: métodos de encuesta: cuantitativos (cuestionario) y cualitativos (entrevistas). La metodología propuesta y probada para medir la satisfacción de los egresados universitarios con los programas educativos puede convertirse en la base para el desarrollo de un sistema universitario de seguimiento de la medición de la satisfacción de los egresados universitarios con los programas educativos y un sistema de gestión de la calidad universitaria.
Reverse processes in the public socio-cultural life of modern Russia are associated with the revival of a number of contradictory past values: the Soviet society ideals (the social experiment of building socialism ended twenty years ago, and before that it lasted more than 70 years); religious Orthodox revival (focused on the values of pre-revolutionary Russia before 1917); the development of traditional folk culture (transferring the value horizon into pre-Christian Slavic culture). The purpose of the article is to show how historical memory “lives” in the collective consciousness of modern Russians, how the archaization processes of historical memory and memorial practices are implemented at various social levels – from individual families (family memory), lower social cells (the level of municipalities, local clubs, schools), to federal school textbooks and national holidays. And turning to the analysis of Russian reality through the approaches of “memory studies” can have serious heuristic potential.
This article describes the experience of supplementing conventional Learning Management Systems (LMS) with Social Networking Service (SNS) aiming at analysis of historical memory of the Soviet past using the method of Oral History by Paul Thompson (1935). Opportunities of the Russian social network, VKontakte, were used for execution of research and education project: Family Memory of the Soviet Past (2014-2020) for students specializing in Culturology at Russian State Social University on the basis of Memory Studies and Oral History theories. This article presents the main educational and scientific results of the project. Using the SNS, the practical component of humanitarian education was implemented; the VKontakte project activity allowed involving student groups in researching; transcripts and photos were collected in digital archive, analysis and discussion were performed. The VKontakte network group demonstrated opportunities of international student research in post-Soviet countries, allowed students to master practical skills of acquisition and analysis of empirical data, as well as became an identification factor of a student group as a part of scientific community.
This article provides a comprehensive research of the architectural model as a cultural phenomenon in cultural-historical dimension since its origin to the latest technological solutions applied in modern architectural modeling. Research methodology is based on the structural-functional and semiotic approaches. The analysis of historical-cultural and modern development of architectural model reveals the five sociocultural functions fulfilled by the architectural model in professional activity, society and culture: professional planning and coordination of architectural project; presentation of the project to customer; commemoration of the outstanding results of human activity; educational engineering; art modeling, namely within the framework of the ensemble type of stenographic art. It is demonstrated that since the beginning of the XXI century, the main function of architectural model – improvement of the project – intertwines with digital modeling for the most part. However, the presentational, commemorative, educational and artistic functions of the architectural model continue to be implemented in actual material, scaling up the distribution and improving the professional methods and techniques of implementation. Analysis is conducted on the role of 3D- printing for the development of modern architectural model. The conclusion is made that the architectural model is a universal form of retaining and transmitting cultural experience, the possibilities of which are not diminished by the advancement of digital technologies and virtual reality. The relevance of architectural model in modern world is associated with the unique quality of the phenomenon- to give a person an enticing illusion of symbolic appropriation of space. Digitalization of the society, professional activity, and education expands the needs for architectural modeling, and simultaneously provides new opportunities for implementation of a number of sociocultural functions of the architectural model on a new level.
The article offers a systematic analysis of “quarantines”—small comic works dedicated to the pandemic and lockdown, which are transmitted in the Internet in digital form. The analysis is conducted on 3082 social cartoons collected by the Center for Social and Political History of the State Public Historical Library (CSPH of the SPHL) during the lockdown in March-June 2020. The quarantines are typologized into three categories: images (collages, original and doctored photos), aphorisms, and creolized texts (caricatures, comic strips, posters, and memes). A quantitative analysis of the collection allows to conclude that the vast majority of quarantines are creolized texts—a visual unity of image and caption. By analyzing the frequencies of the main themes represented by the quarantines (with the help of hashtags), a rating of thematic groups is compiled, where the topics “Lockdown” and “Masks” take the leading place. In all thematic groups, there are motifs both critical and loyal to the social norms of the pandemic, as well as plots and images of varying degrees of metaphoricity. Based on the analysis of quarantines collected by the Center for Social and Political History, as well as a critical review of modern studies devoted to digital folklore of the pandemic period in Russia and abroad, the main socio-cultural functions of a quarantine are singled out: overcoming social stress, adaptation to the new conditions of physical and social existence; interiorization of social norms of the pandemic. The conclusion is that quarantines have become a special, artistic method of selfhelp for society in a situation of social extreme.
