in the context of digital transformation of education, mathematics teacher training requires an innovative approach to designing e-learning courses (ELCs). This research aims to identify specific requirements for the structure and content of ELCs for mathematical pedagogical programs that integrate subject knowledge and methodological competencies. The research methodology included a survey of 145 students from 5 Russian universities and experimental verification of the effectiveness of modernized courses on a sample of 76 students over a 6-month period. The most in-demand digital components were identified: interactive mathematical models, dynamic geometry systems, computer algebra systems, and graphical calculators. The experiment confirmed a significant increase in proficiency with digital tools and professional competencies. The developed ELC model provides for a "dual immersion" of students in the digital environment, where they simultaneously act as learners and creators of educational content. Criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of specialized ELCs and recommendations for their integration with traditional LMS platforms are proposed. The research results can be used to optimize the professional training of mathematics teachers in accordance with the modern requirements of the digital educational environment.

in recent years, our country has paid close attention to the development of mathematical and natural science education, modernization of the content of curricula at all levels of education. Updating school mathematical education with the subject "Probability and Statistics" requires updating the methodological training of the teacher from the standpoint of all components: theoretical, analytical, practical and activity-based. One hour per week is allocated for the implementation of this course, starting from the seventh grade, a total of 102 hours. The introduction of the subject "Probability and Statistics" required teachers to search for methods for constructing a lesson, turning to digital educational resources with content corresponding to federal state educational standards for the selection of educational material. The purpose of our article was to analyze digital educational resources for the formation of an effective methodological apparatus for future mathematics teachers. An overview of Russian content projects (Prosveshchenie, Foxford, Infourok), simulators (YaKlass, Skysmart, SDAM GIA) is presented, and the degree of significance of their application in the formation of the components of methodological training of mathematics teachers is determined. Conclusion: the practice of using digital educational resources by future mathematics teachers to a certain extent influences the formation of all or individual components of their methodological training and can be recommended for the implementation of additional training for students in the course "Probability and Statistics".

the relevance of the research is determined by the need to implement a comprehensive action plan to improve the quality of mathematical and natural science education in Russia until 2030, approved by the Government of our country. According to the authors of the article, one of the areas of work in this area is the development of STEAM education. The purpose of this article is to summarize and present the experience of teachers of the Yelabuga Institute of Kazan Federal University in preparing undergraduate students to lead the educational and extracurricular activities of students based on the principles of STEAM education at various levels of education, including additional education. Since the basis of STEAM education is project activity, the emphasis in the training of undergraduates is on it, which allows them to develop inventive, entrepreneurial, creative, communication and leadership qualities. The authors analyzed the content and results of the students' project work performed during the internship "Design and research activities on STEAM". Based on the analysis, a conclusion is made about the effectiveness of including the project method in the educational process of training specialists, which allows students to form the necessary competencies related to the implementation of STEAM education ideas in practice.

in connection with the changes taking place in society, connected with the construction of a new technological mode, caused by new information technologies in the first place, connected with the development of artificial intellect, there is a need to train highly qualified teachers competent in this field. This implies changes in the content of teacher training as the experience of informatization of teachers of mathematics and informatics shows. Analysis of curricula for training such teachers within the framework of bachelor's degree shows that fundamental training is difficult since AI is now a set of different semi-empirical models operating on many different sections of mathematics. At the same time, teachers need to be trained to use AI systems as a tool in their work. The authors propose to focus on the sections of AI related to the use of neural networks, as this direction is currently the most effective, while defining a unified approach to their description, based on the classical sections of mathematical and functional analysis. In this case, it is possible to present tools for creating and training neural networks in the form of a constructor consisting of the necessary software with clear interrelationships between them. Unfortunately, due to sanctions, there may be and are problems related to access to big data, to libraries of algorithms, to international resources where AI problems are discussed and due to possible “bookmarks”, there may be problems with information security. This forces us to switch to Russian software. In spite of the complexity of the problems we are facing, the authors consider it necessary to maintain the trend towards fundamentalization of mathematical training of teachers of mathematics and computer science. In this case, AI will be a tool in the hands of the teacher, and the teacher will not become an application for artificial intellect.

this article analyzes the management of bachelor thesis writing under the Sino-Russian joint education model for cultivating internationalized interdisciplinary talents with the “Major + Russian” approach. In this context, the bachelor thesis serves not only as an important measure of students' comprehensive abilities but also as a key indicator of the quality of joint teaching. Using Heilongjiang University as a case study, the current thesis management under this model still faces multiple challenges, such as delayed topic initiation, lack of a joint Sino-Russian supervision mechanism, difficulty in ensuring the quality of bilingual thesis writing, and an underdeveloped process management system. These issues hinder the improvement of thesis quality and the effective utilization of joint educational resources. Based on a review of relevant domestic and international research, combined with practical exploration at Heilongjiang University, this article provides an in-depth analysis of the current situation and problems in bachelor thesis management under the “Major + Russian” model. It further proposes solutions such as establishing a dual-stage mechanism of “term paper + graduation thesis”, building a joint Sino-Russian supervision system, enhancing support for cross-linguistic writing, and improving comprehensive process management. The aim is to offer theoretical and practical references for optimizing thesis management in the context of Sino-Russian joint education and to support the overall improvement in the quality of cultivating high-level internationalized interdisciplinary talents.

the article examines the impact of various choice architectures on the educational behavior of students in a digital environment. An experiment conducted on the basis of an online university course made it possible to compare neutral, nudge, gamified and socially comparative versions of the interface. Course completion rates, academic results, and time costs are analyzed in detail. The data obtained confirm the importance of mild behavioral stimuli to increase engagement without compromising the quality of learning; special attention is paid to the effect of social comparison as the strongest mechanism. The results demonstrate a statistically significant increase in the proportion of those who completed the course when using mild behavioral stimuli, and also confirm the effect of the "social anchor" as the most effective mechanism. It has been shown that behavioral interventions can increase learning motivation without compromising the quality of learning. The presented conclusions expand the understanding of the limits of the applicability of behavioral economics in education and provide practical recommendations for the design of digital courses.

the scientific literature has repeatedly emphasized the importance of intra-family factors in personality formation and the development of intelligence. A special place among such factors is occupied by the status of the child in the family, related to the order of birth and the presence or absence of siblings. This paper presents a study aimed at identifying differences in personality and intelligence among students who are the only children in the family, compared with students with siblings. The Russian-language version of the Big Five Inventory-2 questionnaire was used to assess personality traits. The hypothesis was that the only children in the parental family would have statistically significant differences in a number of personality parameters and intelligence indicators compared to people who have siblings. The study involved 225 respondents assigned to one of four groups: an only child, an older, middle, and younger sibling. The study revealed differences in a number of Big Five scales, which are closely related to the style of family upbringing and interpersonal interaction of a child with adults and peers. The analysis of the data allowed us to establish that the factors determining different trajectories of personal and intellectual development may depend not only on the status position of the child, but also on gender differences, as well as socio-economic and cultural characteristics of the family. The results confirm the relevance and importance of further research aimed at in-depth study of the influence of the status of an only child on individual psychological and cognitive indicators in adolescence and adulthood.
