Abstract: Support and development of gifted children today is not just one of the directions of work of educational institutions but also public policy in the field of education. Support of talented children is becoming the main direction of development of education which has raised the issue of how the development of gifted children should become the "system mechanism" and "social elevator". The subject of the article is a description of the experience of the program of gifted children's development. The goal of the article is to present a model and a system of work with gifted and highly intelligent students in secondary schools. The novelty of the material presented is caused by the fact that the author gives a description of the model and system of gifted children's development and abilities of students compatible with the national curriculum. To achieve the goal of the work the author has applied traditional teaching methods. To summarize approaches to understanding giftedness the author has also applied the methods of analysis and synthesis of giftedness theories. To implement the empirical part the author has applied summative, formative and control experiments. The process of the program implementation consists of three stages, and there are certain goal and activities at each stage. The author of the article describes the results of the study. The author demonstrates a positive change in 5-year dynamics of the targets of the program. Their efficiency is proven by criteria and indicators of growth: the share of children included in the system of development of giftedness, the number of contestants and winners of various competitions, the number of teachers with higher education and the percentage of parents satisfied with the quality of educational services. The model clearly reflects the characteristics of the development of talent at all stages of school education: primary school through the formation of the prerequisites (cognitive demand, universal learning activities and creativity), in high school through three core areas (humanities, language, information and communication), and in high school through individual profiles of development in specific types of giftedness. In the course of work the author has defined events and activities for the extension of the program for the next 5-year period. The results can be interesting in scientific terms for applying effective technologies and tools for the development of gifted children. They can also be applied in terms of application in terms of psycho-pedagogical training of teachers and education of parents.

Abstract: Modern high-level requirements for training skilled workers and mid-level professionals require the academic community to introduce new pedagogical technologies that would contribute to the enhancement of intellectual activity of students to solve increasingly complex production problems. Implementation of interactive forms and methods in conjunction with the problem-based learning enables a fundamentally new way to look at the process of teaching academic disciplines and modules. There is an opportunity to provide practice-oriented learning even in the process of teaching traditional disciplines. The interaction of the instructor with students is meant to ensure the application of acquired knowledge in practice by performing any professional activity when solving situational tasks. The authors of this article discuss the implementation of this approach in the process of teaching technical graphics to college students. The authors present methodical development of the practical lessons for this discipline where the student's task is close to the real production situation and involves them into analysis of the problem, finding its solution, learning to argue and defend their professional position. Students work in small groups; elements of the master class, brainstorming, discussions, forms of self-control and mutual control are implemented. Presented methodical development can be taken as a basis and used after adaptation to a particular course by teachers of different engineering disciplines who want to better prepare and conduct their classes. This approach does not only increase the effectiveness of individual lessons but also contributes to the activation of educational-cognitive activity of students, better assimilation of the studied material, and provides practical orientation of the learning process that is an integral part of training of graduates who are going to participate in the work of modern innovative production.

Abstract: The article is based on little known archival and documentary sources. The author of the article examines the problems of religious education of Muslims of the North Caucasus. It is proved that socio-political and cultural development of the North Caucasus region in the nineteenth century was marked by the involvement of Muslim peoples in the social, cultural and economic field of Russia through school policy. The Russian government in the region tried to implement not only the "stick" (military action, economic blockade), but also the "carrot" policy (education development), knowing that the latter will evoke sympathy among the local population and the spiritual elite. To the traditional system of education, which was submitted to the Koranic school, the Mekteb and medrese were added to the state "public" educational institutions that educate youth in loyalty to the Russian state. Methodologically the article is based on the achievements of Russian historical science in the field of Caucasian studies, history of Russian education, educational thought, urban studies, and studies of the social system of the Russian Empire. The methodological basis of the research involves the principles of objectivity, consistency and historicism, which is dictated by the complexity of studying the topic. Conclusions are made about the fact that after the establishment of the Russian statehood in the area of distribution of Islam, everyday way of life of Muslims changed for the better. The traditional Muslim system of education has been changed, too, in which there was an increase in the number of new theological schools, and have significantly improved their training facilities. However, Muslim educational paradigm implemented by the Russian Empire in the North Caucasus still needed in a substantial upgrade.
