EDITORIAL POLICY
Scientific Journal of Khortytsia National Academy (Series: Pedagogy. Social Work) is the official journal of the Municipal Institution of Higher Education "Khortytsia National Educational Rehabilitation Academy" of Zaporizhzhia Regional Council, which seeks to publish articles of the highest scientific quality. Khortytsia National Academy, as the founder of the periodical publication, has extensive experience in conducting scientific research on topical socially significant issues, as well as cooperating with leading experts in the field of pedagogy, social work in Ukraine and abroad.
The Scientific Journal of Khortytsia National Academy (Series: Pedagogy. Social Work) was created to share advanced achievements of educational and social practices in interdisciplinary comparative discourse.
In our opinion, the all-Ukrainian sphere of distribution of the journal does not limit the possibility of specialists from other countries to join its activity, since the problems of educational management, primary education, vocational education, special education and social pedagogy need to be solved in the globalized scientific space. We are interested in the involvement of scientists from Ukraine and other countries of Central, Eastern and Western Europe in solving the issues raised in our publication. The three languages of the journal (Ukrainian, Russian, English) should become a tool to facilitate such scholarly discussion.
Our journal adheres to an open access policy. All the past issues of the journal as well as the current one are available in full on the publication's website. Scientific libraries and other academic institutions are permitted to include issues of the journal in repositories. We adhere to the principle of double-blind reviewing, as well as the reviewing procedure performed by two independent experts who are members of the editorial board and / or external experts of the journal.
In our opinion, the creation of the scientific journal that adheres to the principles of openness, objectivity and scientific accuracy is an urgent need of our time. This type of publications should be the flagship of modern science in introducing advanced socio-educational technologies, forming the outlook of young scientists, as well as directing the movement of enterprising professionals to a qualitative change in state policy in the fields of education and social work.
The journal pays particular attention to research in the field of pedagogy of life creativity which focuses on the development of social and life practice of subjects of training in the educational and rehabilitation space. We are actively interested in systematic studies of the inter-determination of the educational and social components in the formation and development of individuals, who are capable of consciously designing life successes, realizing the ideas and creatively correcting independent sociocultural influences to achieve the set life goals.
The key benchmarks of pedagogy of life creativity are:
- the principle of developing systems of educational institutions of different types as open, socially-active, based on partnership, coordination of efforts of all their subjects;
- orientation of educational, educational-and-rehabilitation as well as inclusive systems on expanding the range of pupils’ social practices;
- directing the educational influences of higher education institutions on developing in students of pedagogical specialties the ability to support the social and life practices of children;
- technological support of higher education institutions of the development of job seekers’ competitiveness in the labor market, taking into account employers' requests for a repertoire of social and life practices of educational institutions graduates;
- implementation of knowledge-intensive development of life-creating personally-oriented educational technologies;
- systematic studies of educational and rehabilitation effects on the development of social practice of children (including children with special needs);
- monitoring the impact of a broader range of social and life practices of education seekers on the development of their life competencies.
We invite representatives of different pedagogical disciplines and related sciences to publish texts that present theoretical analyzes, descriptions and generalizations of the empirical research results, as well as their reflections on the range of problems mentioned above.
