Activation of Independent Work of Future Teachers by Means of Information and Communication Technologies

Abstract

The effectiveness of higher education depends on many conditions and means. Continuous and comprehensive acquisition of theoretical knowledge and practical skills is facilitated by the use of modern information and communication technologies during all years of study in a higher education institution. Due to the penetration of new information technologies in the field of education, it has become possible to qualitatively change the content, methods, tools and organizational forms of education. The article reveals ways to intensify the independent work of future teachers by means of information and communication technologies. After analyzing the data, it was found that students in the control and experimental groups have significant differences on such scales as: awareness, decision-making, planning and communication; there is also a positive trend on mnemonic, volitional and mental scales. According to the study, it is possible to say that future teachers of the experimental group are more knowledgeable and confident in choosing their profession, they more rationally and adequately assess the situation and more thoughtfully plan their future than students in the control group. Our study allows us to draw conclusions about the need for teachers in all disciplines to implement practice-oriented content, use active methods and technologies and abandon traditional teaching methods in the absence of practical significance of the content of educational material. It is necessary to use a rating assessment of students' work in the classroom; emotional form of presentation of the material; installation on the practical significance of the subject being studied; formation of professional competencies in students; creating situations of young people's awareness of the need for vocational education to succeed in life; to actualize persistence, independence, activity, initiative at performance of educational tasks.
