MONITORING OF MENTAL STATES OF STUDENTS IN DISTANCE AND CLASSROOM COMMUNICATION

In the authors’ opinion, there is an urgent issue in high school education which needs to be pointed out - the mental states of students who are involved into two types of studying at high state school. The first one is named as a traditional learning; it includes face-to-face educational communication with teachers in the classrooms. The second one is a distance education. It is said that both sorts of studying have to be necessarily integrated into the tertiary education with basing on the two things. Firstly, it supposes the personal needs and students` psychological opportunities. Secondly, it includes the specific of psychology of their cognitive activity. Besides, it is declared that the research is sufficient theoretically and practically. It promotes to show perspectives psychological, pedagogical, and educational management research area. The first one contents such issues as the specific of personal developing, the level of developing students` professional skills, and quality of public education. The second one refers to the training teachers for the high school. Also it allows defining the way of their future constructive solutions. According to the article, there are three basic tasks which have to be thoroughly considered. The first one is to study emotional states of students that are studying at Bachelor’s academic programs at the Izhevsk State Agricultural Academy (Izhevsk, Russia). The second one is to figure out the treatment of the students to the working via Internet during studying, especially with using electronic books. It also suppose to find out the quantity of asking teacher’s consulting. Finally, the third one is to determine factors of learning process which are causes of negative and positive emotional reactions both in distance and classroom communication. In the course of the research we recognized that the students feel wide specter of as negative as positive mental states. However, it was revealed that the most of students of two first Bachelor’s courses feel more negative mental states during classroom learning and do not like teachers` mentoring whereas for the others, who study on the two second same courses, sense to have more time for the high quality teacher’s individual mentoring increase vastly. In addition, the research shows that the students needs to communicate with the lectures in the classroom decreases rapidly. Herewith student’s reactions towards working via Internet and with using electronic books are positive generally. They also react positively to information that is being well managed and presented by a charismatic lecturer. Authors suppose that among anticipated reasons which induce student’s negative mental states in distance studying are lack of implementation of need in sense of unity, and creativity in general. But it claimed that it could be realized in classroom learning. By virtue of the assumption the issues of importance of the high school teacher’s professional’s skills, merits of their personality, and the proportion of the audience’s education format in contrast to reducing the distance learning are increasing greatly.
