Introduction
Modern society poses the challenge for higher education to train a specialist who is knowledgeable, thinking, and able to independently obtain and apply knowledge in practice. The solution to this problem is carried out through the search for content, forms, methods and training tools that provide greater opportunities for development, self-development and self-realization of the individual. In this regard, the problem of mastering the methods of cognitive activity by students in the conditions of independent work is of particular relevance (Lukinova, 2003).
The urgency of the problem of students mastering the methods of independent cognitive activity in the classes on the discipline "Adaptation in the labor market" is due to the fact that during the period of study at the university the foundations of professionalism are laid, the skills of independent professional activity are formed. In this regard, it is especially important that students, mastering the knowledge and methods of obtaining it, be aware that independent work is designed to complete the tasks of all other types of educational work, because no knowledge that has not become the object of their own activity cannot be considered a true personal asset (Petrovsky, 1984).
Turning to the psychological and pedagogical literature shows that researchers have repeatedly addressed the issues of forming the skills of independent educational activity. So, in the writings of B. G. Ananiev, A. A. Bodalev, L. S. Vygotsky, A. N. Leontyev, S. L. Rubinstein, N. F. Talyzina, L. M. Fridman and others the role is revealed and the place of independence in the formation of the human person. The necessity and importance of the formation of independence at a student age is considered in the works of Davydov, et al (2018), are defined concepts of “independent work”, “independent cognitive activity”, “independence”. In a number of sources (Polovnikova, 1968) emphasizes the fundamental possibility of improving the quality of training through the use of independent work in the educational process.
Of undoubted interest are works in which considerable attention is paid to the problem of the formation of the skills of independent educational activity (M.A. Danilov, I.A. Zimnaya, T.I. Ilyina, I. Ya. Lerner, A.A. Lyublinskaya, B. F. Lomov, N. A. Menchinskaya, O. A. Nielson, R. B. Sroda and others).
P. I. Pidkasisty and I. Ya. Lerner consider cognitive independence as a property of the personality character and quality of its activity.
B. G. Ananyev, N. V. Kuzmina, T. I. Shamova in their works, cognitive independence is investigated as a quality of personality and the foundation of its self-development.
M.I. Makhmutov highlights the signs of cognitive independence: the need for knowledge, the desire to deeply understand the essence of the issues under discussion, in ways of obtaining knowledge, a critical approach to the material being studied, and the ability to express one’s point of view. V. A. Orlov, T. I. Shamova, the methods of learning are considered as a component of cognitive independence, while they distinguish operational, technological and organizational independence. Polovnikova (1968), identifies three levels of independence: copying, reproducing selective, creative. All researchers determine cognitive independence as a property of the human psyche, as a quality and personality trait. All of the above can be implemented in independent cognitive activity on the basis of the training method "independent work". The concepts of “independent work” and “independent cognitive activity” are associated with the concept of “independence” and are the most frequently used didactic categories. Their content, structure, types, functions have long been discussed on the pages of pedagogical, methodological, and didactic literature.
Methodology
Student’s independent work in discipline “Adaptation in the labor market” is a mean of involving a student in independent cognitive activity in this discipline, which forms his psychological need for systematic self-education. In the conditions of a competency-based approach, the need and ability for self-education is considered as a key competency that characterizes a graduate with higher education.
Independent work of students in extracurricular time may include: study of lecture material on the discipline, work with scientific and technical literature in the study of sections of the lecture course submitted for independent study; preparation for seminars, practical exercises; preparation for tests, colloquiums, etc (Senashenko & Zhalnina, 2006).
Independent work of students in the classroom in the discipline of "adaptation to the labor market" is very diverse and may include: the implementation of independent work; performance of control work, problem solving; work with reference, methodological and scientific literature; protection of work performed; operational (current) survey on individual topics of the studied discipline; interview, colloquiums; business games, discussions, conferences; testing, etc.
When planning independent work on discipline "Adaptation of the labor market," we are guided by the requirements of E, are set out by E in the regulations, such as the Federal gosudarstvenny educational standard of higher education in the direction of training or a degree, the working program of discipline as an integral part. The program of independent cognitive activity provides (Table 1): sections, topics, individual issues of the studied discipline, submitted for independent study.

Before performing independent work, the student should familiarize himself with the material given in the lecture course, study the recommended literature.
In the process of organizing independent work, teacher’s consultations are of great importance, during which, you can solve the problems of the course being studied, clarify the most difficult issues (Troyanskaya & Savelyeva, 2013).
Rationing of independent work involves solving the following problems: determination of the time budget for independent work during class, which is formed by special methods of conducting them , mobilizing the student’s creative cognitive activity; determination of the planned volume of hours for all independent work, as the sum of the time of the classroom and extracurricular forms of independent work; determination of the time budget for each type of independent work; determination of the actual total time spent by the student and the costs of certain types of independent work. The time budget for students for a separate type of independent work is determined by the teacher, as a rule, based on data on the average time spent by students in performing the same tasks (based on observations of students performing classroom independent work, interviewing students about the time spent on a particular task, timekeeping of own costs for solving a particular problem with the introduction of a correction factor based on the level of knowledge and skills of students).
When organizing independent work, the teacher informs students about the organization of their independent work in the semester, analyzes and eliminates the objective reasons for overloading students during the semester in their discipline, not exceeding the planned costs allocated for each week, and also organizes classroom and extracurricular independent work and stages control this work (Simakova & Isakova, 2017).
During the student’s extracurricular independent work, and if necessary, the teacher can conduct consultations at the expense of the general budget for the time allotted for consultations. Independent work can be carried out individually or by groups of students, depending on the purpose, volume, specific subjects of independent work, level of difficulty, level of students' skills (Larionova, 2003).
The forms of control of students' independent work can be very diverse: test on issues, checking individual tasks, seminars, colloquiums, conferences, business games, test on the topic, section, testing, self-reports, tests, defense of course projects and works, oral and written exams etc.

The criteria for evaluation of results of independent work of the student is with me : the level of development of students of educational material ; student's ability to use theoretical knowledge in performing practical tasks ; the validity and clarity of the response ; design of material in accordance with the requirements of standards ; formed skills in accordance with the goals and objectives of the study of discipline (Dulmukhametova, 2015).
Results
In modern conditions of application of modular technologies and the formation of students' competencies in many universities, an information and educational environment is created that allows students to optimize their independent work at various stages of the learning process, taking into account the increase in their independence (Speranskaya & Yatsevich, 2016). At Tyumen Industrial University, such an environment is presented in an automated environment EDUCON 2.
The modular-block structure of the information and educational environment allows you to optimize the entire learning process, organize the independent work of students at various stages of the didactic cycle, taking into account their preparedness - the formation and growth of their degree of independence (Agibova & Kulikova, 2010).
The information and educational environment, focused on the effective independent work of students, consists of the following blocks: educational; supervisor; communication; block teacher.
The educational unit includes theoretical, practical, resource and plug-ins. In the theoretical module the necessary theoretical information is presented, methods for solving typical problems are given. The theoretical module can be used both for the study and repetition of the basic material, and for an in-depth study of the theory.
The practical module consists of modeling, calculation modules, the Practice module, and the Independent Work module.
The “Practice” module is represented by laboratory or practical work with assignments of various difficulty levels, during which students can use theoretical information if necessary. The module "Independent work" allows you to organize multilevel work with each individual student, to implement various types of independent work (reproducing, reconstructive-variative, heuristic), creates the possibility of phased education of students, taking into account the level of their competencies.
The resource module contains a collection of Internet resources, test, graphic, animation, video, audio materials presented on topics that students can use in the course of independent work.
The control unit consists of a test module, self- knowledge control modules and a portfolio. It is intended for monitoring, self-monitoring and reflection of students' knowledge.
The test module allows you to implement the input, current and final types of control, systematically carry out feedback with the student, identifying the degree of assimilation of the material he studied, and timely fill the gaps in the student’s knowledge.
The knowledge self-control module allows the student to learn to solve problems independently, assess the degree of his training, and the teacher to monitor students' progress and, if necessary, adjust their training on time.
The communication block consists of modules: Bulletin board, Forum, E-mail. It provides information exchange between the participants of the educational process.
The teacher block contains a monitoring module, program-methodological and instrumental modules that are available only to teachers.
The program-methodical module contains a discipline program and methodological recommendations for effective use in the educational process.
The instrumental module includes programs for developing independent work tasks, tests, and self-monitoring tasks.
Students throughout the entire period of studying the discipline systematize in the portfolio all the work performed.
The forum organizes discussions on topics proposed for self-study, discusses projects presented by students.
E-mail allows the teacher to give individual advice to students, exchange information when working in groups. Using the modular structure of the information and educational environment, focused on the independent work of students, helps them critically evaluate their knowledge and skills (Dyatlova, 2018); carry out self-monitoring with error diagnosis; set itself the task of independently obtaining and deepening knowledge, which improves the quality of assimilation of this knowledge and helps to reveal the individual abilities of each student.
Conclusions
Thus, we can say that in the domestic pedagogy of higher education a fairly large experience has been gained in implementing the organizational and pedagogical conditions for the effective independent work of student’s formation of conclusions on the results of monitoring and final control.
The choice of controlled parameters of the learning process should ensure the effective implementation of all the functions of pedagogical control. Pedagogical monitoring of students' independent educational work is distinguished by the fact that conducting control measures, analyzing the results obtained, their subsequent evaluation and then making decisions is carried out by the student himself (Gorb & Belkin, 2005). Thus, self-control is one of the varieties of pedagogical control. This determines the methodology for the formation of controlled parameters, the algorithms for their calculations, the plans for conducting control measures, the content and levels of tests and tasks. The student does not possess at the time of training knowledge and experience sufficient to assess the quality of academic work in the subject under study. Therefore, the organization for monitoring students proposed in pedagogical systems of independent educational work should: 1) diagnose the educational goal of independent work and be consistent with it; 2) contain calendar plans for control activities or principles for their agreed implementation; 3) determine areas of control, including verification of all levels of learning material; 4) systematically organize checks of control measures agreed with the current semester educational process; 5) contain detailed, detailed methods for analyzing the results and further decision-making on the quality of work and possible corrections of training parameters.
The development and use of pedagogical technologies in the system of higher educational institutions should be considered from the perspective of a comprehensive assessment of the socio-pedagogical aspects of the use of pedagogical technologies in the educational process of the university, taking into account the impact of the educational environment at the individual, group and collective levels (Kamenez, et al, 2018).
In the educational process of a university, a lot of attention has always been paid to the search for teaching methods and techniques. In modern conditions, the search for new forms and possibilities of training is in the field of improving not only teaching methods, but also improving the technology of vocational training.
It is absolutely obvious that there is a need to formulate a new strategy for higher education, which, through the use of pedagogical technologies in the educational process of the university, can restore the lost harmony in the activities of the mechanisms of self-organization of the subjects of this process.
