RESULTS OF EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH ON THE FORMATION OF RESPONSIBILITY FOR ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY IN FUTURE OFFICERS OF THE ARMED FORCES OF UKRAINE

Abstract

The article examines the process of forming responsibility for environmental safety in future officers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The relevance of the study is determined by the need to train officers capable of acting in an environmentally sound manner under the conditions of modern military activity and integration into NATO standards. The problem of greening military education is gaining particular importance in the context of intensive resource use and armed conflict. The purpose of the article is to present the results of a pedagogical experiment aimed at determining the effectiveness of the substantiated organizational and pedagogical conditions for forming responsibility for environmental safety in future officers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. To assess and ensure a systematic approach to forming responsibility for environmental safety in future officers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, a system of criteria (motivational, cognitive, activity-based, and professional-personal) and their indicators was developed, and three levels of formation of the specified quality were identified. Within the study, a model for forming responsibility was developed. This model is based on methodological principles and provides for the implementation of organizational and pedagogical conditions for forming responsibility for environmental safety in future officers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the introduction of which is carried out in accordance with the relevant methodology during the pedagogical experiment. The results of the ascertaining and formative stages of the experiment indicate significant differences between the control and experimental groups. The obtained data confirm the effectiveness of combining educational and formative influences implemented within the experimental program and the expediency of using innovative pedagogical approaches in the professional training of future officers, which creates the basis for further implementation of the proposed model in the military education system.
