ABSTRACT
Today, the concept of “socio
-
informational competence” is actively used in the use of language. According to the
description, this type of competence represents a person’s ability to correctly relate to information transmitted on
social networks, to be able to separate it according to the principle: whether this or that information is needed or not
needed, important or not important. Effective mastery of this competency helps prevent a person from wasting time
on social networks. The article reveals the lex
ical, psychological and pedagogical meaning of the concept of “social
and informational competence”. The lexical content of the main concept is explained on the basis of its characteristic
descriptions.

INTRODUCTION
One of the most important features of the modern
world is the size and speed of the information flow.
Today, the role of social networks in ensuring rapid
information exchange between social entities is
increasing compared to other types of mass media.
Therefore, information is becoming a necessary factor
not only in professional activities, but also in social
relations. However, no matter how important
information is in social relations, not all of them are
equally important, necessary and useful for individuals
of different age groups. Worryingly, much of the
information being shared on social media is useless, if
not necessary, for all audiences. This, in turn, requires
people of different ages, especially young people, to

form a conscious attitude towards the information
transmitted on social networks.
Formation of socio-informational competence in the
young generation (in general secondary schools) and
development (in secondary specialized, professional
and higher educational institutions) requires a carefully
based pedagogical and psychological approach to this
process.
The rapid development of means of information
transmission and communication technologies has
caused a great wave in the society during the last
quarter of a century. The size and volume of this wave,
known as the "flow of information", is related to the
subjective ability of each person, worldview, life
aspirations, and the goal he has set for himself.
However, young people who do not yet have enough
life experience and a stable outlook have a need for
management psychological and methodical support in
order to decide on a conscious attitude to the
information transmitted through various mass media
(media), social networks. In order to effectively
implement pedagogical activities aimed at the
development of social-informational competence
among young people, including students, it is desirable
to be aware of the meaning and description of the
basic term - "social-informational competence".
As a result of the cognitive analysis carried out to study
the essence of the problem, it became known that
researchers have different views on the concept of
"social-informational competence".
In particular, a group of researchers believes that the
basic concept under study is lexically synonymous with
terms such as "information competence", "social
competence",
"information-communicative
competence". The approaches of group researchers
are wrong. After all, each of the terms such as
"information competence", "social competence",
"information-communicative competence" is an
independent category and serves to express different
situations.
The researchers of the second group have a mistaken
view that all professional and social knowledge, skills,
qualifications and experiences acquired by a person
are reflected on the basis of socio-informational
competence.
Researchers belonging to the third group, in our
opinion, are right. Thus, the concept of "social-
informational competence" directly serves to express
a person's attitude to the information transmitted by
social networks and mass media. In general, the
concept of "social-informational competence" serves
to express a person's attitude to the information
transmitted by social networks and mass media.
As a proof of our opinion, we will get acquainted with
the dictionary meaning, pedagogical-psychological
description of the concepts of "information
competence", "social competence", "information-
communicative competence" and "social-information
competence".
Information competence is a person's ability to self-
control and ensure the consequences of his actions,
taking into account his personal qualities, existing
experience, readiness to perform appropriate tasks, as
well as professional activities using ICT and specific
tasks in everyday life. the ability to effectively perform
information activities (O.I. Mironova) [10, - p. 169].
The concept of "information competence" in language
use was used for the first time at the beginning of the

21st century, more precisely in 2001, in the report
"Information
competence
in
California
state
universities" carried out by the Department of
"Information Literacy" of the University of California
[13].
O.I. Mironova shows that the main qualities reflected
on the basis of information competence are the
following:
knowledge
of
information
and
communication tools and the information processed
through
them, especially
related
information
processes; use of ICT in education, professional activity
and organization of everyday life; choosing effective
ways to solve tasks created by information as an
object; mastering the methods and methods that allow
searching,
collecting,
evaluating,
interpreting,
processing, analyzing, presenting, storing, distributing
information, as well as improving the quality of
organizing these actions based on existing experience;
independent organization of personal activities aimed
at working with information and establishing self-
control in its implementation; assessment of the
importance of information and effective responsibility
at the modern stage of society's development
Making a personal contribution to the implementation
of information activities by using t [10, p. 170].
Based on the above-mentioned points, it is worth
saying that the concept of "information competence"
is the acquisition (searching) of information sources of
a person - traditional means: newspapers, magazines,
television, radio, as well as information technologies
(IT) - the Internet, mobile communication devices,
computer devices. , storing, analyzing, evaluating,
processing, distributing, organizing mutual active
information exchange), having theoretical knowledge,
practical skills,
qualifications
and
experience,
expressing the ability to use them purposefully in
professional activities or personal daily life. On the
basis of this competence, the main emphasis is not on
the organization of interpersonal communication
(information exchange), feedback. A person can
search for information with the help of various
traditional means, information technologies, store,
analyze, evaluate, process, and distribute the received
information, but in addition, he does not aim to
organize feedback, that is, to organize mutual active
information exchange. So, the main difference
between information competence and information-
communication competence is the absence of mutual
active information exchange in interpersonal relations.
In his research, I.G. Kisla's component structure of
information competence [9, - p. 111-112] as follows

As shown in the presented table, I.G. Kisla considers
information-communication competence, which is an
independent category, to be a quality reflecting on the
basis of information competence.
In the context of globalization, information comes
from various sources - newspaper, magazine, bulletin,
radio, television, tape recorder, telephone, mobile
device, computer, printer, scanner, fax, modem,
copier, as well as audio recording, video recording, e-
mail, Internet, being distributed using information
technologies such as social networks.
The term "digital competence" is also used as an
alternative
to
the
concept
of
"information
competence" in the current environment where digital
technologies are developed. The concept of "digital

follows: a competence that represents the bold,
critical, rapid use and interaction of digital
technologies for the purpose of education, work and
participation in the life of society [14].
According to the recognition of the organization
(Council of Europe), digital competence includes
information literacy, as well as awareness of
knowledge in information-related fields (literacy),
communication and collaboration, digital content
creation (in particular, programming), information
security (including accessibility based on digital
management and cybersecurity-related) and related
problem-solving competencies [14].
Relying on the given definition and O.I. Mironova, I.G.
Kisla's opinion on the main quality (components)
reflected on the basis of information competence
t is possible that the concept of "information
competence" serves to mean the "relationship"
between a person and information and communication
technologies, in particular, digital technologies (for
example, computer technology), a mobile device, and
how effectively it is implemented.
Social competence is an ability based on the
uniqueness of mental processes, emotional control
and social experience, which represent understanding
of oneself and others, prediction of events between
individuals ("Pedagogical psychology" dictionary
(Dictionary "Pedagogic phycology") [2, p. 327]; this is a
descriptive
indicator
of
socio-psychological
knowledge, moral-legal evaluation conclusions that
ensure successful adaptation to tasks such as official
business communication, work team and active
movement in the social environment [12, - p. 122].
From the given definitions, it is understood that social
competence represents a person's adaptation to the
social environment, his communication with subjects,
and his attitude to social problems. Our opinion O.G.
Krasnoshlykova. The views of O.G.Koshevaya,
V.N.Kelasev, I.L.Pervova on qualities reflected on the
basis of social competence are also confirmed.
According to them, social competence exhibits the
following qualities:
adaptation of the young generation to the market
environment, which is on the path of forming values
that increase responsibility for their personal well-
being and the state of development of society through
the acquisition of social skills and practical skills related
to the spheres of economy and social relations; solving
negative social problems related to the increase in drug
addiction, crime, and criminal offenses; ensuring social
agility, which represents readiness for rapid changes in
social and economic roles [7, - p. 23];
a person has a certain social status that allows him to
use the available resources in the social environment
and environment; a person has social reflection, the
ability to foresee the results of his actions, enjoyment
of his activity, taking into account the consequences;
not to harm others and others, taking into account
their activity; the ability to acquire special knowledge,
skills, competences (as well as other regulatory ideas)
that allow them to enter a certain environment; the
ability to resist negative pressure from the
environment (the ability to say "no" to challenges and
threats to personal development); the ability to solve
problems
in
unconventional,
unique
ways;
participation in cultural processes, without which
motivations for one's own actions and aspirations
cannot be formed, which ensure the independence of
a person, and at the same time ensure his ability to

resist negative threats; the existence of a demand for
a person in a certain social structure (after all, if a
person is denied in a certain social environment, this
indicates that he is incompetent); manifestation of
motivation
and
initiative
in
a
person;
communicativeness [8, - p. 363-364].
Information-communicative competence - knowledge
of the methods that ensure the interaction of social
entities and realities, the ability to work in a group,
various social roles and other qualities ownership [6, -
s. 20-21]; possession of knowledge about social
relations in the society in which a person lives and the
influence of individuals on each other [4].
The
above-mentioned
definitions
of
social-
communicative competence serve to mean the
communication between individuals, the positive or
negative attitude of subjects towards the social
existence, the process, events, events taking place in
it, and other persons, the exchange of information
during social relations, the importance of mutual
communication in the development of an individual.
I.A. Akhmetshina, A.A.Loseva, S.A.Ozerova, who
studied the description of the basic concept,
emphasize that the following qualities are reflected on
the basis of socio-communicative competence in the
example of a pedagogue: professional activity, as well
as verbal and high level of skills in written
communication, communication culture, business
negotiations, establishing effective influence between
individuals, modeling and managing one's own
behavior,
making
strategic
decisions,
solving
problems, controversial and conflicting situations [1, -
p. 350-351].
Socio-information competence is an educational result
that allows students to receive, use and manage
information in different social and professional
conditions for their future activities (T.A. Chekalina) [11,
- p. 122-123]; working with information technologies,
the ability to express a critical attitude towards social
information distributed through mass media (E.F. Zeer,
E.E. Symanyuk) [3, - p. 27] competence related to the
use of information and communication technologies,
the main structural basis of which is the individual
abilities and qualities of a specialist (M.N. Ivanovskaya)
[5, - p. 210].
It is clear from the given definitions that social-
Informational competence is an independent
category, which does not directly mean social or
informational competence, but shows individuality. In
our opinion, this specificity indicates a conscious
attitude to the information transmitted through social
networks in IT, awareness of the methods and
methods of protection against their harmful effects.
If the student can solve the tasks that arise in the
process
of
using
digital
technologies
or
communication tools, then it can be concluded that he
has developed social and informational competence.
Consequently, social-informational competence allows
a person to independently evaluate the goals,
processes and results of activities based on a conscious
approach and reflection while realizing internal
changes [11, - p. 124].
In our opinion, when explaining the concept of "social-
information competence", it is necessary to emphasize
the unity of the terms "social" and "information". In
modern conditions, if information is transmitted
mainly by information technologies, it is necessary not
to ignore the dissemination of information of a social

nature through social networks. Accordingly, it is
permissible to say that subjects with different socio-
informational age, profession, education level,
interest, and life aspirations are presented to the
audience.
It is true that today information related to a certain
field is distributed in social networks through a special
site, network, channel (for example, Telegram
messenger). However, the information (information)
transmitted in them does not have a specific system,
moreover, it is not transmitted consistently,
continuously, and purposefully. As a result, knowledge
(systematic information) is not created.
Through social networks, information (information)
that is mainly entertaining, sensational, without
sufficient evidence and proof is quickly spread. Usually,
these data are not analyzed or processed by the
contact owners. And naturally, in most cases, it does
not serve to develop thinking. In addition, information
that contradicts the laws of Uzbekistan and the moral
and ethical requirements of the society is also
distributed in various social networks. This situation
requires the young generation to develop a conscious,
analytical and critical approach to foreign, destructive
information distributed on social networks, and to
develop social and informational competence.
During the theoretical study of the problem, based on
the above-mentioned opinions, the types of
information competence manifested in a person such
as "information competence", "social competence",
"social-communicative competence" and "social-
information competence" were summarized as follows

Thus, social-informational competence, which means
having the ability to correctly react to the information
transmitted in social networks, distinguish them
according to the principle of unnecessary and
unnecessary, important and unimportant, defines the
image of a modern person. Its effective utilization
helps to prevent a person from wasting time on social
networks. Therefore, it is necessary to pay serious
attention to the development of socio-informational
competence of learners at all stages of continuous
education, including in HEIs, as one of the important
socio-pedagogical
tasks.
Social-information
competence in organizing this process understanding
the essence, being aware of the aspects that differ
from concepts such as "information competence" and
"information-communicative competence", which are
recognized as an alternative to this term in the sources,
ensure the effectiveness of pedagogical activity.
