Sender A. Organizational and methodological principles of intensification of professional training of future software engineers taking into account cognitive styles

The research is devoted to the actual problem of intensification of professional training of future software engineers taking into account cognitive styles at higher education institutions. The contradictions that complicate the achievement of the appropriate level of the quality of software engineers professional training at higher education institutions and require overcoming have been identified, namely: between the high level of complexity and a large amount of educational material and the need to intensify the professional training of future software engineers; between the need to take into account the students' cognitive styles in the process of professional training in the field of knowledge 12 Information Technology and the complexity of the application of diagnostic techniques and interpretation of the results; between the stable cognitive styles of future software engineers and their need to carry out educational and professional activities in different conditions using different methods of information processing. The scientific novelty of the research results is that: for the first time, the organizational and methodological principles of intensification of professional training of future software engineers taking into account cognitive styles are substantiated and developed, namely: diagnosing cognitive styles of higher education students and organization of educational process taking into account the obtained data; increasing the information contents of educational material by a reasonable combination of fundamental foundations of computer science and modern achievements in the field of information technology, integration of the content of related educational components; application of practice-oriented forms, methods and means of teaching. The pedagogical technology of intensification of professional training of future software engineers taking into account cognitive styles is developed. It consists of conceptual basis, semantic (goals, tasks and content of professional training) and procedural (forms, methods and means of teaching and assessing academic achievements) components. The structural and functional model of pedagogical technology of intensification of professional training of future software engineers taking into account cognitive styles is developed. Criteria (value and motivational, cognitive, operational, personal), levels and indicators of efficiency of pedagogical technology of intensification of professional training of future software engineers taking into account cognitive styles are determined. The content of the concepts "intensification of professional training of future software engineers at higher education institutions", "cognitive style of a software engineer", "organizational and methodological principles of intensification of professional training of future software engineers taking into account cognitive styles", "pedagogical technology of intensification of professional training of future software engineers taking into account cognitive styles". The essence of the concepts "intensification of training", "cognitive style", "pedagogical technology" is specified taking into account specifics of professional training of future software engineers at higher education institutions by the first (bachelor's) and the second (master's) levels curricula. The components of the process of professional training of future software engineers at higher education institutions by the first (bachelor's) and the second (master's) levels curricula (content, forms, methods and means of teaching and evaluation of educational outcomes) based on intensification taking into account cognitive styles. Theoretical and practical aspects of professional training of future software engineers at higher education institutions have been further developed.
