Devyatkina A.P. PEDAGOGICAL TECHNOLOGY OF SERVICE LEARNING IN THE DISCIPLINES OF THE BASIC CYCLE IN THE TRAINING PROGRAM FOR FUTURE BIOECOLOGISTSAnalysis of the problem of interaction between the technosphere and the conditions of modern society points to growing environmental crises caused by the increase in resource consumption and the formation of man-made waste. Despite the advantages of the technosphere, its development gives rise to environmental problems that require adequate solutions. In this regard, there is a need to train highly qualified specialists in the field of bioecology, capable of minimizing the negative impact of the technosphere on the environment. Training bioecologists with comprehensive knowledge in the field of ecology, biology, chemistry and life safety requires the integration of theoretical and practical skills, which is achieved through educational programs focused on project activities and the impact of social partners. The pedagogical technology “Learning by Service” is introduced into educational programs as one of the tools that contribute to the formation of students’ competencies necessary for the effective solution of environmental problems. Students’ participation in project activities not only helps them gain practical experience, but also forms in them a sense of responsibility for the state of the environment and a desire to participate in socially significant initiatives. The results of the sociological study show a high level of students’ readiness for volunteer participation and a conscious choice of the profession of a bioecologist, which confirms the demand for this specialty at the local level. Despite the positive response to the introduction of the “Service Learning” technology into the educational process, existing problems, such as lack of time for project activities and the lack of special skills among students, require the development and implementation of support measures. It is necessary to optimize the curriculum, providing more opportunities for practical work, as well as organize specialized trainings and master classes to develop project skills and the necessary competencies among students. The creation of a clear project management system in educational institutions will not only fully realize the potential of the “Service Learning” technology and improve the quality of training of bioecologists, but also ensure their contribution to solving complex and multifaceted eco-social problems of society.Key words: technosphere modernization, competencies in the field of bioecology, training of future bioecologists, “Service Learning” technology, project management.
