The study aims to analyze the impact of globalization on Ukraine’s information security from a historical perspective and to identify key challenges and directions for strengthening national resilience in the information domain. The study is based on a structured literature search and qualitative content analysis of scientific sources. Content analysis is conducted to examine academic literature on the evolution of Ukraine’s information security under globalization.The findings demonstrate that after the collapse of the USSR, Russian media actively shaped Ukrainian audiences through Moscow-centered narratives. Effective countermeasures emerged only in 2014, while the full blocking of Russian information channels after February 24, 2022, became a crucial step in safeguarding national information security. Key challenges identified include cyber threats, information aggression, unequal access to digital resources, regulatory gaps, and the lack of comprehensive international cooperation. Strengthening Ukraine’s information security in the era of globalization requires enhanced cyber defense, the development of media literacy, the adoption of advanced protection technologies, and the implementation of regional security initiatives. Active collaboration with international partners and the integration of modern technologies are essential to ensuring a sustainable and secure information environment.

This article demonstrates that mentoring and coaching serve as methods of targeted counselling for mentors in training future physical education teachers and sports specialists. These methods, which support young teachers, can help address the complex challenges that frequently arise in the teaching profession while recognising the student as an individual with specific needs. In school practice, however, the terms “mentoring” and “coaching” are often used interchangeably in the context of supporting and counselling young professionals. While these terms share similarities, they also have distinct differences. As part of a joint project, mentoring and coaching are considered counselling strategies used by mentors in the training of future physical education teachers and sports specialists. This article provides a theoretical foundation for both concepts, grounded in a review of current literature. It aims to scientifically explain the similarities and differences between the terms “mentoring” and “coaching” in the training of future physical education teachers and sports specialists. From a neuropedagogical perspective, learning emerges from the interaction of cognitive, emotional, and motor neural systems. This interaction is particularly important for future physical education teachers and sports specialists, whose professional activity combines intellectual, motor, and socio-emotional elements. Mentoring that emphasises modelling professional behaviour engages social learning mechanisms and mirror neurons. This approach helps students acquire pedagogical and motor skills effectively through observation, imitation, and reflection. In addition, neuropedagogy highlights the role of physical activity as a key factor in cognitive development.

The article examines the features of the formation and implementation of strategic marketing in conditions of military instability, which causes radical changes in the functioning of the national economy and market systems. The essence and interrelation of the concepts of "strategic marketing", "military instability", "adaptive mechanisms" and "enterprise competitiveness" are revealed. Attention is focused on the fact that strategic marketing during the war period acts not only as a tool for maintaining market positions, but also as an effective mechanism for adapting business to crisis conditions. The key areas of influence of military factors on the marketing activities of enterprises are identified, in particular, a decrease in effective demand, the destruction of logistics chains, resource shortages and changes in consumer priorities. It is proved that the successful adaptation of enterprises to the conditions of a military environment requires a rethinking of strategic approaches to management, flexibility of marketing decisions and the introduction of innovative models of behavior in the market. The role of the innovative potential of an enterprise as a basis for the formation of competitive advantages in an unstable environment is considered. It is emphasized that strategic marketing management should focus not only on short-term survival, but also on ensuring sustainable development after the end of hostilities. Particular attention is paid to anti-crisis marketing tools, which include diversification of sales channels, development of digital communications, reorientation of target segments and formation of a socially responsible brand image. It is established that strategic marketing in conditions of military instability becomes an integration element of the enterprise management system, which combines analytical, planning, communication and adaptation functions. It is substantiated that the use of a strategic approach to marketing activities allows enterprises to monitor changes in the market environment, increase the flexibility of management decision-making and promptly respond to the challenges of the external environment. It is noted that in modern conditions, innovative activity and strategic thinking become the main factors in increasing competitiveness. The article concludes that strategic marketing in wartime should perform adaptive, stabilizing and prognostic functions aimed at the formation of long-term competitive advantages. The implementation of a systemic approach to marketing management ensures increased stability of the enterprise, reduces risks in the process of its functioning and creates a basis for restoring the country's economic potential. Thus, strategic marketing in conditions of war instability becomes a key factor in maintaining business efficiency, developing innovative activities and ensuring the competitiveness of the national economy as a whole.

Rapid digitalization is reshaping the methodology and practice of natural-science research, moving inquiry beyond isolated manual experimentation toward data-intensive, model-driven, and networked science. This study aims to examine the role of information technologies (IT) in contemporary natural-science research, assess their effects on the efficiency of data collection, processing, and analysis, and explore the potential of digital tools for modeling, forecasting, and visualization. Methodologically, the work applies a systemic, interdisciplinary approach combining theoretical analysis of publications and institutional documents with comparative, systems, and case-study methods across three leading Ukrainian universities. Empirical indicators include the share of recent publications using IT, integration of classical methods with digital tools, laboratory computing capacity, access to licensed/open software, and connectivity to international databases, supplemented by domain-specific cases. Results show widespread but uneven digitalization: in publication practice, IT use reaches ~82% (KNU), 76% (LNU), and 88% (KhNU); integration of classical and digital methods is 64%, 59%, and 71%, respectively. Technical readiness varies, with modern computing in laboratories at 85% (KNU), 72% (LNU), and 89% (KhNU); departments’ access to licensed/open software at 78%, 67%, and 83%; and researcher access to international databases at 92%, 81%, and 95%. Domain specializations underline differentiated strengths - bioinformatics at KNU (≈68% of genetics studies), GIS at LNU (≈62% of ecological–geographical work), and computational modeling in physics/chemistry at KhNU (≈74%). The findings confirm IT as a determining factor across the research cycle, while also revealing constraints in infrastructure, software access, digital competence, and data governance. The study concludes with a policy agenda - targeted infrastructure upgrades, balanced provisioning of licensed and open platforms, continuous professional development, FAIR/reproducible workflows, and robust security/ethics—to convert clear digital gains into sustained research accuracy, productivity, and international visibility.

This study presents the green synthesis of an Aloe vera based ZnO-β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) nanocomposite for photocatalysis and antimicrobial applications. UV-Visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Field emission electron microscopy (FESEM), and band gap energy measurement, were employed to investigate the optical and structural features. Due to unique bandgap (3.0 eV) and enhanced electron-hole recombination dynamics, the newly synthesized nanocomposite can not only able to demonstrate the efficient photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB) dye by achieving complete discoloration at 6 pH within 160 min under visible light—a significant improvement over previously reported ZnO-based system, but furthermore, it also strongly combatted by the antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria S. aureus, gram-negative bacteria E. coli, and the fungus strain A. niger. This is due to the generation of singlet oxygen (O2*–) and hydrogen oxide radical (–OH*) in presence of light and air, which inhibit the growth of cells of bacterial and fungal strains. Notably, the nanocomposite was biocompatible, posing minimal cytotoxicity to healthy cells, making it a promising candidate for environmental and biomedical application.

The article examines suggestive speech as a powerful tool used to explore the complexities of identity, migration, and cultural fusion. It is indicated that such speech often deals with themes of hybridity, the blending of multiple cultural identities, and the tensions between different cultural experiences. It is noted that the problem relevance is due to the increased interest in suggestive speech functioning in modern discourse, which acts in intercultural contexts and carries nuanced meanings that reflect the characters’ diverse backgrounds, histories, and perspectives. The article’s novelty is determined both by the fact of the little-studied analysis of border writers and by the ever-growing interest in suggestive speech role in their works (which is often overlooked by researchers, since the main attention is directed to the study of the text poetics and problematics, main and secondary characters, etc.). The research task is to analyze speech influence as a powerful tool in modern authentic texts and provide a comparative analysis of it. The analysis of speech influence is based on texts of Amy Tan, Frank Chin, and Kyoko Mori. In modern transcultural literature, suggestive speech is functioning as a powerful narrative tool that conveys the complexity of identity, cultural negotiation, and emotional conflict. By using ambiguous, nuanced, and sometimes silenced speech, modern authors of transcultural literature offer “a window” into their characters’ emotional and psychological portraits, highlighting the challenges of balancing multiple cultural identities. The role of speech influence in modern discourse is an increasingly important and complex phenomenon. Speech, whether verbal or non-verbal, plays a pivotal role in shaping public opinion, cultural perceptions, and social identities in contemporary societies. Overall, the role of suggestive speech in modern discourse is multifaceted, influencing everything from national ideologies and social movements to personal identities and intercultural relations. In literature, speech remains to be a potent tool for shaping modern discourse.

Abstract This study presents the formation of Al based ZnO-β-cyclodextrin nano composite, by the green synthesis of ZnO nano particles from aloe vera (Al) plant extract, functionalized with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD). UV-Visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Field emission electron microscopy (FESEM), and band gap energy measurement, were used to analyse the functionalized zinc oxide (ZnO) with β-CD nano composite. Present work involved the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB) dye as a model substrate used Al based ZnO- β-cyclodextrin nano composite where Al-based ZnO-NPs was worthily catalysis due to their unique bandgap (3.0eV) and β-cyclodextrin with ZnO, electron-hole recombination takes places very easily. At 6 pH, MB aqueous solution lose its blue colour after 160 minutes. Gram-positive bacteria S. aureus, gram-negative bacteria E. coli, and the fungus strain A. nigerwere all successfully combatted by the antibacterial activity. In presence of light and air, Al based ZnO-β-cyclodextrin nanocomposite generates singlet oxygen (O2*-) and hydrogen oxide radical (-OH*) which inhibit the growth of cells of bacterial and fungal strains. Although it was less hazardous and did not show negative effects on the development of healthy cells.

In order for a modern music teacher to understand the complexity of a high goal, he or she must be aware of the need to find the most optimal ways to overcome current difficulties and problems. Such a way out may be self-enrichment of knowledge, improvement of pedagogical skills by studying the theory and practice of world music education, modern pedagogical science, advanced pedagogical practice, and the formation of pedagogical mobility. The purpose of the article is to demonstrate the need to develop mobility in the future musician-teacher as an ability to ensure the variability of activities due to the search for the optimal solution to the tasks in the music education of schoolchildren. The solution of such research tasks determines the logic of the presentation of the material studied in the article: analysing the professional training of future music teachers as a factor in the formation of pedagogical mobility; defining the essence and structure of pedagogical mobility of a future music teacher. The research methodology is based on the general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, observation and abstraction, which are used to systematise achievements in theory and practice in the humanities and, in particular, in pedagogy. The results of the study showed that pedagogical mobility ensures effective communication and cooperation in the educational environment. It allows a music teacher to establish productive interaction with students, build constructive relationships with parents, colleagues, the administration of the educational institution, as well as with representatives of the wider social environment involved in the implementation of the educational process. This ability helps to harmonise interpersonal relationships, create a positive microclimate in the educational space and increase the effectiveness of pedagogical activities. In general, the pedagogical mobility of a music teacher is a prerequisite for his/her professional realisation, as it is focused on meeting the current demands of modern education, dynamic transformations of society and global trends in the field of artistic pedagogy. Its development contributes to achieving high results in the education and upbringing of the younger generation, shaping students' aesthetic outlook, developing their creative abilities and musical culture. In this context, pedagogical mobility is not only a professional competence, but also an important factor in the personal growth of a teacher, his or her ability to innovate and effectively adapt to the conditions of the modern educational paradigm.

Camera-based air handwriting recognition can enable a new form of user-computer interface. For a practically viable air handwriting recognition system, real-time responsiveness, robustness against environmental and human-induced interferences, and coherent handwriting recognition are essential. However, existing systems fall short of fulfilling these requirements simultaneously. To this end, we propose K-AirWrite, a real-time, robust system designed for continuous air handwriting recognition. The key enabler is to simplify complex video stream recognition into a single-frame trajectory image recognition problem by mapping hand motion in the video stream to hand trajectory coordinate images and enhancing real-time performance through a lightweight detection network. Furthermore, we develop a segmentation method that leverages coordinate changes induced by the inherent pattern during the character-switching process to segment continuous characters. These segmented characters are then sequentially input into the M-RepVGG network for recognition. Extensive experiments demonstrate that K-AirWrite is remarkably efficient and exhibits robust generalization capabilities, achieving an accuracy rate of 98.2% for individual characters and 96.4% for continuous characters.
