TRAINING FUTURE PRESCHOOL TEACHERS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF CHILDREN’S SOCIAL APTITUDE: HIGHER EDUCATION PEDAGOGY PERSPECTIVE

Abstract

Education is faced with an insufficient level of teachers’ preparedness for work with gifted children which results in overlooking sensitive periods for the development of talents and creative skills formation. So, the topical issue of professional pedagogy is introducing university based special training of psychological and pedagogical specialists ready to work with gifted children. The future teacher of gifted children should possess appropriate competencies, which will ensure the timely identification of inclinations and, therefore, creation of favorable conditions for the development of gifted children’s potential. Particular attention should be paid to socially apt individuals, who are not often recognized as potentially gifted. University educational process should incorporate future preschool teacher training for the development of childrenʼs social aptitudes in the cultural and educational spheres. This can be achieved by means of synergetic integration of the general cultural, general pedagogical and specialized vocational and pedagogical training for providing instruction to socially apt children as well as professional-axiological and socio-cultural development. We consider the training of future preschool teachers for the development of children’s social aptitudes in the cultural and educational spheres to be a deliberate process, driven by the specifics of this type of aptitudes, which involves mastering humanistic professional values, a system of integrated philosophical, psychological and pedagogical knowledge about social aptitudes and their manifestations, a complex of skills, professional and socially predetermined qualities that form the relevant competencies. The system of work with students, which presupposes the development of children, is elaborated in several dimensions: conative, gnoseological, praxeological, acmeological, reflexive.
