СУЧАСНІ ОСВІТНІ ТРЕНДИ ТА ЇХ ВПЛИВ НА ОСВІТНІЙ ПРОЦЕС В ЗАКЛАДАХ ЗАГАЛЬНОЇ СЕРЕДНЬОЇ ОСВІТИ

The article presents a comprehensive analysis of current educational trends that determine the development directions of the general secondary education system in the context of global challenges and rapid technological changes. The relevance of the study is determined by the need to adapt school education to the requirements of the future society, particularly in the context of a pandemic, military actions, digitalization, changes in lifestyle and value orientations of the current generation. The purpose of the study is to investigate the content, characteristics and impact of educational trends on the organization of the educational process in general secondary education institutions The study draws on scientific sources from domestic and foreign authors, official documents, and the results of international educational research. It analyses more than twenty key trends that are already being integrated or have the potential to be implemented in Ukrainian education. These include: adaptive (personalised) learning, inclusive education, artificial intelligence, interactive and immersive learning (VR/AR), the use of gadgets and 3D glasses, gamification, ubiquity, bilingual programmes, microlearning, hexagonal learning, prioritisation, development of proactivity, psycho-emotional support for participants in the educational process, scrapbooking and storytelling, STEM/STEAM/STREAM approaches, SCRUM methodology, "reading science", hybrid and distance learning, as well as the concept of lifelong learning. The author defines the content, potential benefits, risks, and conditions for effective implementation of each trend. Particular attention is paid to technological aspects, in particular, the introduction of artificial intelligence as a tool for personalising learning, automating assessment processes, and creating content. They show that augmented and virtual reality technologies, gamification approaches, and interactive methods help boost student motivation and develop critical and creative thinking, but need to be used in moderation and in a pedagogically sound way. It has been determined that the effectiveness of implementing trends depends on the readiness of teachers for digital transformation, their ability to quickly adapt to new conditions and combine traditional and innovative teaching methods. The importance of maintaining a balance between global trends and national identity in the educational process is also emphasised. It is concluded that the integration of modern educational trends is not only a requirement of the times, but also a tool for improving the quality of education, which prepares students for life and professional activity in conditions of rapid social and technological change. The implementation of such approaches requires the coordination of efforts by all participants in the educational process, the updating of the regulatory framework, adequate technical support and the systematic development of the digital competence of teachers and learners.
