Information hour is a form of educational work among students aimed at nurturing the civic culture of young people, shaping their horizons and social maturity in conditions of political pluralism.

It is advisable to hold information hours weekly according to the training schedule. Based on the number of topics covered and the depth of discussion of the problem, information hours are divided into overview and thematic.

A review information hour is a brief overview of the main political, cultural and sporting events that occurred over a certain period of time in the country and abroad. It is proposed to inform students according to the following scheme:

State foreign policy (strategic directions of international activities, government visits and reception of delegations, signing of treaties, participation of the Republic of Belarus in resolving international conflicts);

State internal policy (the latest decrees, orders, ways to solve problems in various sectors, development trends in our society, republican events and economic achievements);

Latest events in the world;

Global environmental problems and ways to solve them;

News of science, culture, education, healthcare, sports of the Republic of Belarus, the CIS and other countries of the world.

The preparation stage involves, first of all, the selection of a presenter and the distribution of subtopics of the information hour among its participants. Those responsible for covering each direction and the presenter are pre-appointed by the curator or chosen by the students themselves. The role of the facilitator can be either the curator himself or one of the students; better, a group leader who can easily captivate peers and focus their attention on a specific problem. The curator (leader), if necessary, participates in the selection of relevant material, develops questions that specify the topic, determines personal and collective tasks for students, taking into account the level of culture and individual developmental characteristics of students, conducts individual consultations, and clarifies the purpose and plan for the information hour.

It is very important to teach students to independently select the necessary material for information hour. To do this, it is necessary to draw their attention to the main criteria for selecting information:

Relevance;

Objectivity;

Significance;

Credibility;

Efficiency;

Persuasiveness.

Students should be wary of materials of dubious origin, one-sided orientation, nationalist and chauvinistic orientation.

Students’ ability to use basic sources of information is of great importance. These include:

1. Periodicals.

2. Dictionaries and reference books.

3. Television programs.

4. Radio broadcasts.

5. Internet.

For a more in-depth discussion of any topical issue, it is advisable to hold thematic information hours.

Determining the topic is one of the most important aspects of preparing a thematic information hour. A formal approach to choosing a topic that does not take into account the most important requirements - the relevance of the information material. That is, its connection with the leading problems of youth, the state, and the world community leads to a decrease in personal interest and the educational impact of the information hour on students. From an educational point of view, such a position of the curator is very important, in which the teacher does not simply offer students the topic he has developed, but discusses it with them. The result of the collective discussion is a promising topic for the information hour, reviewed and approved by the students. As a result, from the first moment of preparing the information hour, students are placed in the position of active participants.

For the thematic information hour, questions specific to the topic are developed in advance, recommended literature is selected, visual aids, audio and video clips are prepared, and, if necessary, work is carried out on the Internet.

The course of the information hour is coordinated by the leader or curator of the study group. He communicates the topic, the purpose of the information hour, substantiates the relevance of the problem being discussed, and establishes the order of speakers.

When conducting an information hour, it is important not so much to pay attention to information about a particular event, but to arouse interest in it, make you think, read about the problem in a newspaper, magazine, book, and actively respond to what is happening. To this end, after each student’s message, the facilitator provides the group with the opportunity to:

Ask questions to the speaker;

Supplement messages with new facts and examples;

Exchange opinions;

Formulate conclusions on the issue under discussion.

After all presentations and discussions are completed, the presenter sums up the overall outcome of the information hour.

It is of interest to periodically conduct a review information hour with a free choice of topics (once every 4-6 weeks). Thematic areas in this case are not distributed, but it is mandatory for each student to prepare for the event that interests him most. The goal is to identify problems that are relevant from the point of view of young people; awakening creative search in the selection of material worthy of the attention of peers. Those who did not have time to speak are invited to place their materials indicating the name of the person who prepared them on a specially designed information stand.

A thematic information hour can be organized in the form of a conversation, during which students make reports on individual issues of the topic, or in the form of a discussion.

One of the varieties of thematic information hour is a “round table” with the presence of a person competent in the problem and the active involvement of students in the discussion. Information on the topic can be presented either by the invited guest himself or by the leader of the study group, who can easily arouse interest in the event and create an environment for a relaxed exchange of opinions.

It is advisable that the circle of participants in a thematic information hour is not limited to one study group. Meetings with interesting people, discussing current events in the world are an occasion to unite several groups of students, subject teachers, parents, and the administration of the educational institution at a round table. Decisions made at the round table can be sent to the relevant bodies and authorities in the form of recommendations, reviews, proposals, thanks, demands, concepts.

An activity-based approach to the study of state and political events develops in students a sense of involvement in what is happening in the world, increases everyone’s civic self-esteem, helps young people better understand the mechanisms of socio-economic processes and encourages active action to transform negative social phenomena.

To develop their concept and program of action in certain socio-economic areas, students can create elected initiative committees - information centers: environmental, national-patriotic, human rights, cultural relations, etc. It is advisable for the activities of such information centers to cover the following areas:

1. Invitation to information hours in groups of competent persons.

2. Information and educational work among students.

3. Organization of general school events (legal consultations, seminars, etc.).

4. Creation of information pages on the Internet in order to notify about your activities, search for like-minded people, exchange opinions, ideas, and experiences.

5. Participation in program events with supervising and equal partner organizations of their profile, training in relevant types of activities at trainings, seminars, etc.

Forms of holding information hours:

“Information +” is one of the most common forms of informing students, replacing such a well-known form as political information. This is to familiarize students with events in the country and abroad according to a certain scheme (foreign and domestic policies of the Republic of Belarus; development trends in Russia and the Commonwealth countries; events in foreign countries; news of science, culture, ecology, healthcare, sports). “+” indicates that in addition to presenting material on the topic, the speaker provides a demonstration of visual material, comments on the message, and exchanges opinions with the group.

“Inform Digest” is a weekly “five-minute meeting” with a free choice of topics. Each student, having previously analyzed the socio-political events of the past week, introduces the group to the most interesting and significant materials from the press, information radio and television programs.

“We asked - we answer” - a form of an overview information hour on pre-selected, most pressing issues for the children. First, information is collected from students about which events of modern life interested them most. The questions received are distributed among students in the class, then material is selected and presentations are prepared.

“Meetings with youth magazines” is a monthly overview information hour based on materials from youth magazines. The form of the event is students taking turns presenting a review and discussion of their favorite materials of a socio-political nature, published in the magazines “Coeval”, “Smena”, etc.

“Round table” is a form of studying a current social problem and freely exchanging opinions on it. The conversation can be started by a thematic presentation by the host or guest of the information hour, as well as by watching a video clip on the issue. After this, students complement the messages from the field, ask questions, a collective analysis of the problem and an active exchange of opinions are organized. In conclusion, conclusions are formulated on the topic (for example: “Youth rights in Belarus”, “Prevention of crime among youth”, etc.).

“Political Discussion” is a thematic information hour aimed at exploring problematic and controversial political issues. Participants are divided in advance into groups that have different or opposing opinions. The discussion is characterized by careful theoretical preparation of the participants and a thorough analysis of the argumentation of the opposing concept. As a result of collective creative thinking, students develop the ability to analyze political life, see the contradictions of reality and find ways to solve them.

“How It Was” is a form of a thematic information hour, analyzing one of the significant events following the example of the TV show of the same name. A major role is given to the leader (curator or the most prepared student). The host provides basic historical and political information, introduces guests and organizes dialogue. Speeches should be short (3-5 minutes) and devoted to a specific fact, allowing you to deepen and diversify the knowledge of listeners. It is recommended to use video materials, photo illustrations, etc.

“Years and People” is a thematic information hour dedicated to the biographies and professional achievements of cultural, political, and economic figures in our country and abroad.

“Press conference” is a form of information hour with elements of a role-playing game. Participants in the press conference - “journalists” and “photojournalists” - interview the speaker, who acts as a politician, scientist, artist, etc.

For a deeper discussion of any topical, interesting, relevant problem related to certain dates in the life of society, it is advisable to hold thematic information and educational hours.

Information hour preparation stage

1. Determining the topic of the information hour, setting goals and objectives.

A formal approach to choosing a topic leads to a decrease in personal interest and the educational impact of the information hour on participants.

2. Determining the form of holding the information hour.

3. Definition moderator(leader).

This could be a class teacher, a study group supervisor, a teacher, or one of the most prepared students who can easily captivate peers and focus their attention on a specific problem.

4. Distribution of subtopics of the information hour among its participants.

5. Development of a plan for preparing and conducting an information hour.

6. Development of questions that specify the topic. Questions should be aimed at a comprehensive disclosure of the chosen topic.

7. Determination of personal and collective tasks for participants in the information hour, taking into account their level of training and individual developmental characteristics.

8. Comprehensive methodological support, including the selection of relevant materials on the topic.

It is very important to teach students to independently select the necessary material for information hour. When selecting materials, it is necessary to take into account the main criteria for selecting information:

· relevance;

· objectivity;

· significance;

· reliability;

· efficiency;

· persuasiveness.

Students must be taught to have a balanced attitude towards materials of dubious origin, bias, one-sided orientation, nationalistic and chauvinistic orientation.

The class teacher (group supervisor) exercises control and, if necessary, participates in the selection of relevant material.

9. Preparation of visual materials - manuals, audio and video clips, if necessary (and if possible), work on the Internet.

A modern class teacher (group curator), being an active user of the computer and the Internet, prepares events with multimedia accompaniment in the form of Power Point presentations, videos, slide shows prepared using the MovieMaker program, and the FhotoShop graphic image processing program.

The use of participants’ own materials (multimedia presentations, thematic photo collages, videos, etc.) significantly increases interest in the issue being covered. This attracts students’ attention to the topic under discussion, contributes to a comprehensive study of the problem posed in the future, and encourages them to think about it and argue their own opinion.

10. Determination of tools for assessing the effectiveness of the information hour.

When holding an information hour, it is necessary to take into account that:

· information hour should be mobile;

· the topic of the lesson should be relevant, and the information for discussion should be timely, interesting, unobtrusive and convincing;

· when preparing for a speech, much attention should be paid to statistical data,

· when presenting materials, it is necessary to actively use clarity and modern technologies (multimedia presentations, photo-video-audio materials, etc.);

· the information offered by the moderator and speakers should be prompt and, for the most part, unknown to the audience;

· the information offered must be impartial. The moderator and speakers should not express their political leanings;

· the information hour should develop students’ skills to analyze, compare, generalize, and draw independent conclusions.

The ability to use basic sources of information is of great importance when preparing an information hour. .

Internet

In addition to the widest range of problems covered, the Internet has another indisputable advantage - the ability to connect to primary sources of information, obtain materials upon request, and quickly exchange experiences, ideas, and technologies with other organizations. Therefore, it is advisable that students who have access to the Internet actively use this opportunity in preparation for the information hour. The use of this source of information contributes to the development of modern information technologies, improvement of information and organizational and methodological support for holding an information hour, and ensuring active interaction between all participants; stimulates more complete content filling and constant updating of information.

TV shows

It is effective and interesting for the audience to use materials from documentaries and newsreels, informational and analytical programs, talk shows, interviews during speeches (it is also recommended to use collective viewing of video material). It is important to focus users’ attention on those information television programs that allow them to be aware of the most pressing problems today both in our country and throughout the world.

Timely warning of students about when and on what topic documentaries, newsreels, information and analytical programs, talk shows, and interviews will be shown makes it possible to include a discussion of a specific television program during the information hour. It is important to involve young people in the systematic viewing of such television programs as “Panorama”, “Time”, “Vesti”, “Segodnya”, which allow them to be aware of the problems that are most relevant today for our country, near and far abroad countries.

If the office in which the information hour is held is sufficiently equipped, it is recommended to use collective viewing of videos. The undoubted advantage of this form of information is the traditionally high interest of students in group television viewing, clarity, and promptness of presentation of the material.

Periodicals

Traditionally, newspapers and magazines are most widely used in preparation for information hour. However, the monotonous presentation of information, especially the uncommented protracted re-reading of articles, sharply reduces interest in the problem posed. When preparing the material, it is very important to study current publications related to the topic under consideration. To add brightness and dynamism to a presentation based on materials from periodicals, it is recommended to include the use of photo illustrations and drawings from magazines, newspapers, albums, various tables, diagrams, diagrams, etc.

Printed publications

Political, economic, legal, philosophical dictionaries, reference books “Countries of the World”, “Foreign Youth Organizations” and other detailed literature are an integral toolkit in educating students’ information culture. The abundance of incomprehensible terms, abbreviations, references to unfamiliar names, organizations, and events often scares away children. It is important to explain complex concepts and terms in an accessible language, use linguistic and cultural comments during presentations, and quote individual dictionary entries in order to constantly replenish the socio-political dictionary of users. Certain information from dictionaries and reference books can be placed and periodically updated on specially designed stands (for example: “Time, events, people”, “Planet”, “Your political dictionary”).

When students choose printed publications (newspapers, magazines, reference books, dictionaries, books) for work, the library worker plays an important role. It is necessary for the librarian to give students a brief excursion into the world of periodicals, encyclopedias and other publications in order to form in students a clear idea of ​​the focus, reliability, style and depth of presentation of information in a particular publication. It is recommended that the librarian periodically introduce students to the news of the book market, and also recommend materials and documents for study at the information hour.

Radio broadcasts

Radio interviews, news reports, radio comments from competent persons can be successfully used in preparation for performances. The technical accessibility of organizing audio listening allows you to use this source of information to avoid the same type of presentation of material. Radio call signs of popular radio stations before each next performance activate the attention of listeners, giving the information hour liveliness and dynamism.

To conduct the information hour may be involved advocacy groups(IPG), information centers(in the presence of). Their tasks include:

· informational and educational work among students;

· organization of events, including methodological ones (promotions, seminars, consultations, etc.);

· invitation to information hours of competent specialists;

· posting information about its activities on the Internet pages of an educational institution in order to notify students, search for like-minded people, exchange opinions, ideas, and experiences;

· participation in events with supervising and partner organizations of their profile, delegation of their representatives to city, republican, and international events, training in relevant types of activities at trainings, seminars, meetings of national and international communication.

Information hour stage

The course of the information hour is coordinated by a moderator (host). He communicates the topic, the purpose of the information hour, substantiates the relevance of the problem being discussed, and establishes the order of speakers.
When conducting an information hour, it is important not only to pay attention to information about a particular event, but also to arouse interest in it, make people think, read about the problem in a newspaper, magazine, book, and actively respond to what is happening. To this end, after each student’s message, the facilitator provides the group with the opportunity to:

· ask questions to the speaker;

· supplement messages with other facts and examples;

· exchange opinions;

· formulate conclusions on the issue under discussion.

After all presentations and discussions are completed, the moderator (host) sums up the information hour.

The form of information hours is determined by the teacher in accordance with the chosen topic ( “Information +”, “Inform-digest”, “Asked–We answer", "Through the pages of youth media", “Round table conversation”, “Political discussion”, “Information ring”, “How it was”, “Years and people”, “Press conference”, “The camera looks into the world”,

4. Working on the topic

41. Main part. From the history of the newspaper

The first newspaper was not like the modern one. It looked more like a letter containing news.

In the 5th century BC. e. In the city of Rome there lived a man who wrote letters and sent them to people who lived far from the capital.

Under the famous Roman Emperor Julius Caesar, the first newsletter appeared, which was dedicated to government announcements and was called “Events of the Day.” The newspaper first appeared inXVIcentury. It was founded by the German bankers Faggers, who needed information about events taking place in the world.

At the same time, in Italy, in the city of Venice, famous for its canals, the first city newspaper appeared. In large squares of this city, sheets of paper were hung, from which the townspeople learned about the most important events taking place in it.

Some people really wanted to take the sheets home to read them in the family circle, together with their relatives and friends. However, city authorities were afraid that people would take the sheets of paper to read and not return them. Then they decided to charge a fee to those who wanted to take the newspaper home. Payment was made using a small coin called "gazette". This is where the name of the newspaper as a printed publication came from.

The first regular newspaper was published in London. It was called "Informant". This event took place in 1663.

How did the newspaper begin to be published in Russia? This happened thanks to Peter I.

Tsar Peter traveled a lot to different countries and cities of Europe and tried to bring to Russia all the best that he saw in other countries. Having seen newspapers being published in Europe, he decided to immediately make the newspaper the property of Russia. Since 1702, on his orders, the Vedomosti newspaper began to be published, which published government orders and decrees, as well as various interesting incidents that occurred in the country.

Now in Belarus there are 766 copies of newspapers published per 1000 people. They come out in the capital - Minsk and regional centers. There are also newspapers in small towns, enterprises, institutes and schools.
