Social Activity – a Factor Conditıioning Student Activity
Abstract
Social activity is one of the main stimulating factors in the formation of students as individuals, their integration into social processes, and ensuring their active participation in the university environment. Social activity includes students' participation in volunteering, social projects, student organizations, cultural and mass events, and public initiatives. These types of activity strengthen students' leadership, responsibility, communication, and team skills, increase their self-confidence, and have a positive effect on the socialization process. Studies show that regular participation in social activity increases students' academic motivation, strengthens their commitment to the higher education institution, and improves their overall socio-psychological well-being. At the same time, practical experience gained in the social activity environment creates additional advantages for future professional development. Thus, social activity is a multifaceted factor that plays an important role in the formation of student activity, ensuring their both individual and social development.
