Ukrainian education system: war challenges

Abstract

The challenges posed by war have had a significant impact on the Ukrainian education system. This article aims to provide an overview of the current stage of training specialists in higher education institutions, highlighting the development trends of specific professions. Attention is drawn to the crucial role of teachers in fostering educational competencies in students, thereby enhancing their competitiveness in the job market, particularly in the context of war. The article analyses the key components of the educational process, emphasizing the need for teachers to boost student motivation for learning. In the present circumstances, Ukraine requires professionals who can effectively adapt to changing situations, discern between true and false information, and maintain resilience in the face of stress. These specialists should not only possess knowledge acquired during their university studies but also demonstrate proficiency in applying relevant skills and competences in their professional endeavors. Notably, effective communication assumes paramount importance during times of war, serving as a powerful tool against the enemy. Consequently, integrating a communicative component into classes is of utmost significance.Parte superior do formulário
