ABSTRACT

The aim of the research was to determine the effectiveness of the use of cloud technologies during the professional training of medical students. Methods. The research employed the methods of comparative analysis, survey, expert evaluation, observation, and statistical analysis. Results. The conducted research determined that the students of the experimental group had a higher level of cognitive, motivational and volitional, organizational and activity components of professional competence. It can be stated that the ability to use digital technologies for professional and personal needs is important in the era of digitalization. Students of the experimental group showed significant results after using cloud technologies such as: Pbwiki, Google Docs, Sway, Microsoft Planner, Microsoft Azure. The teachers changed their attitude towards the use of cloud technologies during classes, although most of the teachers had doubts about the proposed tools at the beginning of the study. The novelty and implementation. The academic novelty of the study was the fact that few studies have been conducted on the use of cloud technologies during the educational training of future doctors. The implementation of virtual reality in the practical classes of future doctors can be a promising direction of research.

KEYWORDS: Technologies, future doctors, professional competence, digital competence, professional training.

Future doctors are expected to possess a high level of professional skills, as reflected by their acquisition of proficient communication competence. The purpose of the article is to determine the role of digital technologies in the formation of communicative competence of prospective doctors. The objective was attained through the use of observation, analysis and weight coefficient, efficiency coefficient, Spearman's correlation coefficient. It was established that the development of communicative competence skills primarily allows to ensure the relevant orientation to the communication conditions (1.6) as well as informativity (1.53). To cultivate the communication proficiencies of prospective medical professionals, the authors developed corresponding approaches that included the use of digital technologies. The study of theoretical material involved the use of the SlideDog application; conducting practical classes via Medvoice Platform. The formation of professional competence involved the role-playing of relevant situations, based on the materials of the Pediatric Dentistry Academy, CARE-NExT-PG. After determining the level of students’ communication skills development in Group 1 (40.2) and Group 2 (40.1), it was established that they attained a high level. The development of communication skills contributed to the formation of students’ communication and social skills, as well as skills of abstract thinking and statistical information processing. The practical significance of the study lies in the elaboration of effective approaches to the development of prospective doctors’ communication skills drawing on the use of digital technologies. Research perspectives may be linked to the comparison of the level of communicative competence among medical students across various academic levels.

Анотація. Метою написання статті визначено здійснення критичного аналізу змісту наукових досліджень, присвячений підготовці майбутніх магістрів медицини до педагогічної діяльності. Використано методи теоретичного аналізу наукової літератури, порівняння, сепарування, узагальнення. Встановлено, що проблема професійної підготовки магістрів медицини окреслюється здебільшого у вітчизняних дослідженнях. Узагальнено, що закордонні дослідники зосереджують увагу на різних аспектах міжособистісної взаємодії на рівні «лікар – пацієнт» у роботі практикуючих лікарів. Одним із актуалітетів наукових розвідок визначено формування педагогічної компетентності лікарського персоналу, що виявляється: у здатності комунікувати з пацієнтами, ефективно використовуючи весь обсяг медичних і психолого-педагогічних знань. Перспективи подальших наукових досліджень у цьому напрямі вбачаємо у методичному забезпеченні системи професійної підготовки майбутніх магістрів медицини до педагогічної діяльності.

Abstract

The purpose of the article is to clarify the content and carry out a critical analysis of scientific research devoted to the preparation of future masters of medicine for teaching activity. Methods. In the preparation of the article, the methods of theoretical analysis of scientific literature were used to determine the actualities of training future masters of medicine at the current stage of the development of medical education. The methods of separation various aspects of the pedagogical activity of doctors were used to specify the content of scientific investigations in the context of comparing the directions of professional training of medical personnel in Ukraine and abroad. The methods of summarizing the results of scientific research were aimed at determining promising directions of scientific research in the context of professional training of future masters of medicine for pedagogical activity. Results. It has been established that the problem of the pedagogical activity of medical personnel in the systems of medical education and health care attracts the attention of researchers. It was found that the problem of professional training of medical students in the master’s degree is outlined mostly in domestic studies. It is summarized that foreign researchers mostly devote their research to various aspects of interpersonal interaction at the “doctor-patient” level in the work of practicing doctors. Conclusions. One of the actualities of scientific research is the formation of pedagogical competence of medical personnel, which is manifested in the ability to teach and educate themselves and patients, as well as people who care for them, effectively using the entire scope of medical and psychological and pedagogical knowledge. An important task is outlined - to improve the system of master’s training of future medical specialists with the aim of purposefully forming the readiness of master’s graduates for teaching activities. We see the prospects for further scientific research in this direction in the methodical provision of the system of professional training of future masters of medicine for pedagogical activity.
