28th of November 2017 in the Students' House of the Qostanay State Pedagogical Institute (QSPI) senior professors of the Psychology and Therapeutic Pedagogy Department - Y.B. Grigorova, O.V. Kalinichenko, Z.D. Akhmetbekova - together with the fourth-year students of the Psychology major conducted a workshop on the stress resistance.
The event was conducted in the Psychology and Therapeutic Pedagogy Department within a Healthy Lifestyle Week framework. Such way of co-operation with the students has found itself constant as long as workshops on stress resistance and communication and personal development are annually conducted among the students residing in the dormitory.
Stress during the academic activity needs to be controlled. One of the methods in this area is to conduct social-physochological workshops which include physoclogical tolerance formation elements. This training programme's main objective primarily resides in teaching students ways to develop effective strategies of coping behavior in stress situations.
The first stage of the programme included energy exercises to get interacted, create sympathetic physochological atmosphere and enter to the training zone. The second stage included exercises aimed at development of behavioral strategies in potentially and real stress situations. Through these exercises students were able to work coping behavior skills, share their own methods of dealing with stress and ask their questions of interest to the panel.
In the end of the workshop a group self-analysis was conducted to track students' relevant psycho-emotional state as well as outline further ways of stress resistance and emotional stability development.
