Introduction of Innovative Approaches to Natural Science and Practical-Professional Training of Future Physical Education Teachers

Abstract

This article analyzes and characterizes innovative approaches used in training of future physical education teachers. Modernization of education enhances the training and education of a specialist of high quality and competence, who is capable of creating knowledge and finding the ways of self-accomplishment in the conditions of continuous integration of Ukraine into the European educational space. Strengthening of young people health potential, providing a differentiated approach to different age groups of children, foreseeing their needs and motivation for physical development and self-improvement depend on a physical culture specialist.We have developed an integrated system of medical and biological education as well as revealed the ways to implement the principle efficient combination theoretical knowledge and practical implication. Professional and practical, humanitarian and socio-economic training occupies a prominent place in the modern training of future physical culture specialists. This issue defines the value of professional activity. Thus, we made an attempt to construct the content of integrated natural science subject and built a thorough logical and didactic structure which will assist to support knowledge advancement in accordance with the new achievements of the disciplines of the natural science cycle; it also strengthens the relationship between the fundamentals and professional education targets; ensures variability and alternativeness, humanization and democratization of the educational process; boost the improvement of natural science education and establish a sustainability of sports-specialized training. This study identifies the main directions, factors, indicators and criteria for intensifying student learning while using innovative and information and communication technologies.This study is based on current modern ideas of philosophical interpretation of human values in the context of vocational education, education of a healthy generation which actualizes the humanitarian significance of natural sciences and opens wide opportunities for interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary integration in training and achieving high sports results. We have proved the effectiveness of scientific and professional-pedagogical competence which is provided by creating an innovative educational environment. This environment is characterized by openness and autonomy, information availability and integration, flexibility and synchronization, multi-vector trajectory and creativity. Due to the use of innovative approaches in the training of future physical education teachers’ cognitive activity, creative thinking and professional curiosity, innovative technologies of physical education are mastered much better, and what is most important, the professional competencies of natural science teachers, teachers-innovators are developed. We have proved that the concept of training new types of physical culture specialists requires mastering the multi-cycle creative work activity when a teacher starts finding new principles and ideas to develop and implement new technologies based on maximum of variations of ways for processing knowledge and its practical implementation. We recommend that physical culture program should be taken into account in the aspect of its correlation with previous and subsequent disciplines while planning the educational process in secondary education. Furthermore, it is relevant to adjust the content of the discipline being studied in order to prevent educational material from coping and repeating. The integrative approach is the most predictable and necessary, we will see the solution of the problem of integration in a close combination of natural science with sports-specialized training. Natural science disciplines should include professionally target knowledge, be focused on teaching methods and education. This approach assimilates professionally target disciplines through the principle of joining theory with practice, thus boosting knowledge in professional and pedagogical activities.
