Peculiarities in Construction of Future Teachers’ Professional Training Content in the System of Multilevel Pedagogical Education in Canada
AbstractThe article deals with the peculiarities of future teachers’ training content in the system of Canadian multilevel teacher education. Main features of the Canadian teachers’ training content are the standardization of multilevel pedagogical education content, Canada’s focus on multilevel teachers’ education in professional development of future teachers, establishing optimal scientific balance between disciplines of different cycles, theoretical and practical units (modules), interdisciplinary guidelines for Canadian teachers. Teaching methods oriented at obtaining professional training by future teachers in Canada, including selected methods of preparation for practical activities and methods of creative thinking, have been emphasized. Based on research and analysis of reference-encyclopedic sources it has been found out that changes in Canadian society in the late 19th-21st centuries led to new demands and duties of teachers set out in the standards of their professional evaluation. It has been determined that the development of the Canadian system of teacher education in terms of multilevelness is targeted at training future teachers competitive in the labour market.
