At the present stage of social life, the moral, intellectual and mental development of a person is associated with the influence of positive and negative factors, among them the absence of age qualification and the availability of information lacking ethics and morals in the materials of the media. Most often, the content of information in such sources and, as a consequence, false perception of the surrounding reality has a negative impact on the intellectual and moral spheres of the younger generation. Modern youth is experiencing a moral crisis, the overcoming of which directly depends on upbringing and education, and in particular on the formation and development of moral and ethical evaluation actions. Family upbringing is the basis for acquiring moral standards, realizing the importance of making choices and making decisions, but it is worth mentioning the contribution of teachers to the upbringing of children and their support in the process of moral formation and growth of schoolchildren, that speaks of the relevance of the research. Thus, the purpose of this article is the analysis of the moral aspect of moral and ethical evaluation concept, the systematization of the categories "morality", "evaluation", "moral norms", "moral choice" and "action." The leading method is a general scientific method of theoretical analysis of domestic and foreign philosophers, psychologists and educators scientific experience. As a result of the conducted research, we have generalized the specificity of such categories as morality, evaluation, moral norms, moral choice and action. Of course, all categories are philosophical concepts, studied from different aspects by psychology and pedagogics. Common in the results of the study is the need to form and develop components of moral and ethical evaluation actions and the formation of these actions in general as a need to educate the schoolchild's morally developed personality. Evaluation of actions and deeds regarding moral norms is the determination of the actions conformity to the norms and expectations of society. This conformity or discrepancy is determined by the society or the person himself. In case of a positive evaluation, the person's actions are approved and encouraged, in case of a negative evaluation, the actions are condemned up to the application of sanctions. An important evaluation component is a person's self-evaluation of his own motives, actions, consequences, taking into account the value attitude to phenomena and events of reality. It should be understood that it is not the action itself that is evaluated, but its motives, goals and results. The article may be interesting for future and practicing teachers, educators of educational organizations.

The need to optimize, intensify and improve the quality of education raises the issue of improving the effectiveness of pedagogical control in the learning process of higher education institutions. High quality education cannot exist without teacher and students feedback which includes data on the results of the current, intermediate and final control. Taking into consideration the revision and amendment of government regulations in the sphere of education, the requirements to the effectiveness of the pedagogical process are constantly changing. The search for the ways to increase the effectiveness of pedagogical control becomes particularly relevant in this context. The purpose of this article is to evaluate the effectiveness of speech tactics that make actual the function of pedagogical control in terms of their contribution to the formation of a favorable psychological climate in the group of students. The research hypothesis is that a number of widely used tactics of pedagogical control do not contribute to the creation of supportive psychological learning environment, but also are unsafe for the psychological health of students, and consequently do not contribute to the formation of a successful student’s motivation for professional self-development. Methods of verbal actualization of the teacher’s communicative intentions in the situation of pedagogical control are considered in the social-pragmatic aspect. The verbal behavior of a teacher exercising his pedagogical control is subjected to a deeper interpretation by an addressee due to the action of the stressful evaluation factor. The results of some research in the field of psychology concerning prevention and pedagogical correction of motivation problems, internal control and learned helplessness condition are used in this study. The main speech tactics of pedagogical control in higher education institutions are presented. It is concluded that the implementation of particular speech tactics may either exert negative influence upon the student's mental health, his self-evaluation and psychoemotional state or also contribute to the development of creativity and motivation to become a top-ranked specialist of the new generation. The practical relevance of the research is that it can be used in the professional activities of university teaching staff and contribute to more effective management of pedagogical communication processes with the aim of creating favourable psychological environment.
