IMPLEMENTATION OF EDUCATIONAL HUB AT IVANO-FRANKIVSK NATIONAL MEDICAL UNIVERSITY'S PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL COLLEGE

The development of technologies transforms, develops, and improves old and creates new forms of human life organization, optimizing and modernizing them. Technologies also influence transformational changes in education and require the joint efforts and collective work of all educators, which necessitates updating approaches to organizing educational processes, determining the renewal of the educational space, and developing a modern educational environment characterized by technological saturation. One of the elements of the information and digital learning environment is the so-called digital (virtual) educational hub. Digital educational hubs can support any educational field, including the «Health care» sector. Learning during the pandemic and war has prompted us to create an online platform for self-education or an Education Hub based on the university website. The target audience of the hub includes students of the specialized medical college of Ivano-Frankivsk National Medical University in the field of knowledge 22 «Health Care», specialties 223 «Nursing», 221 «Dentistry», 226 «Pharmacy»; students of the medical and dental faculties of IFNMU, and students of other medical educational institutions. The Educational hub consists of a homepage that provides general information about the Professional Medical College, Ivano-Frankivsk National Medical University, the goals of the hub, and more. The next page, «Nursing» is designed for students of specialty 223 «Nursing». Virtual learning blocks have been created for students, which contain videos and algorithms for various manipulations, test tasks, materials for preparation for the Krok M exam, tactical medicine guides, and more. From the «Nursing» page, one can navigate to the «Dentistry» page, designed for students of specialty 221 «Dentistry» and the «Pharmacy» page, designed for students of specialty 226 «Pharmacy». As part of the cooperation between the professional medical college of the Ivano-Frankivsk National Medical University and the Andrey Krupinsky Lviv Medical Academy before the war, various events took place. The war has had an impact on our lives... However, our cooperation continues. During times of unstable electricity and constant anxiety for the implementation of academic mobility, we have used the Educational Hub. In particular, professors Natalia Tsubanova, Oleksandra Palahitska, and Natalia Rudakova from the Andriy Krupinsky Lviv Medical Academy posted a series of educational materials on the Educational Hub. Associate Professor Oleksandr Bulbuk (professional medical college of the Ivano-Frankivsk National Medical University) shared his educational materials on dentistry. This ensured free access and the establishment of organized learning opportunities, allowing all interested students from both educational institutions to participate in the educational process regardless of their location and time. The Educational Hub of the Professional Medical College of Ivano-Frankivsk National Medical University is an element of the information and digital learning environment that modernizes and enhances it, providing the development of the educational process in the field of "Healthcare". Additionally, this educational platform enables academic mobility for all participants of the educational process.
