THE IMPACT OF INDIVIDUALISATION OF EDUCATION ON THE EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING OF BASIC SECONDARY EDUCATION STUDENTS

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to investigate the relationship between the individualisation of learning and the emotional well-being of students in basic secondary education. The methodology of the study was based on theoretical methods such as analysis, synthesis, and comparison, which enabled a systematic review of the scientific literature to define the concepts of “emotional well-being”, “individualisation of learnin”, “differentiation of learning” and to summarize ways that would contribute to improving the level of emotional well-being. The scientific novelty of the study lies in substantiating the effectiveness of individualised learning as a condition for forming a high level of emotional well-being in students. The study proven that the educational process provides a multitude of options for the individualisation of learning. These include the development of individual educational trajectories, the transition to individualised forms of education or the organisation of inclusive education, a diversity of educational opportunities implemented through a significant number of educational programmes, forms of education, profile-based education, integrated courses, extracurricular education, elective course programmes, etc.; the use of modern information and communication technologies; differentiation of education as a practical tool for individualisation; the introduction of formative assessment. Electives and additional consultations are considered not only as supplementary elements of the educational process, but also as specific tools for supporting the emotional well-being of students. Conclusions.In today’s context, when students experience not only academic stress, but also stress from uncertainty, information overload and traumatic events, educators should pay special attention to their emotional state, implementing individualisation of learning aimed not only at the cognitive but also at the emotional sphere, which will further increase the effectiveness of the educational process and ensure the harmonious development of the personality of each student.
