THE ABILITY OF STUDENTS WITH SPECIAL EDUCATIONAL NEEDS FOR SUCCESSFUL EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES AS AN INDICATOR OF THE PEDAGOGICAL REHABILITATION SYSTEM EFFICIENCY

Abstract

The article deals with the problem of standardization for the markers of the pedagogical rehabilitation system effectiveness in a secondary education institution. The problem is essential for secondary education in Ukraine and establishing inclusive educational practice. Scientific explorations in this area demonstrate the diversity of analytical positions, the allocation of many essential characteristics given by researchers (students' self-education, willingness to behavior self-regulation, interest in learning, informational needs of students, awareness of their own resources, etc.). Those characteristics may correlate with educational and rehabilitation influences. Alongside with that there are also indirect characteristics of the pedagogical rehabilitation effectiveness, such as physical and mental health, emotional stability and others. The current state of the problem has led to the author's theoretical and empirical consideration of the successful educational activity phenomenon among the students with special educational needs. The ability for successful educational activity is an indicator of the pedagogical rehabilitation system effectiveness in secondary school institutions. The abilities for successful educational activities among students with special educational needs are considered by the author as a set of properties which characterize capabilities of children with special educational needs to learn the school curriculum in accordance with the requirements of state educational standards and, secondly, are the result of a dynamic system of rehabilitation educational measures applied in the institutions of secondary education. The theoretical reflection of the phenomenon allowed to distinguish four positions (motivational, cognitive, competence-based and reflexive) for its deeper comprehension and systematic measurement. The criteria for studying the researched indicator are: the level of student's educational motivation, the direction of educational motivation, the development of achievement motivation, the level of educational achievements, the level of students' information and self-educational competences, their ability to exercise personal and intellectual reflections. The research was based on the above-mentioned criterion and indicators and it revealed a significant influence of the pedagogical rehabilitation system on the studied characteristics. This allowed the author to suggest that the increase of the ability to succeed in learning among students with special needs is a standard for effective pedagogical rehabilitation of children with special educational needs in the inclusive educational process.
