The Value-Semantic Basis of Pedagogical Activity: a Comparative Analysis of the Position of Teachers and Pupils of Pedagogical Classes
The relevance of the research is justified by the tendency to implement the axiological approach in education in the context of the need to construct a single space for the training of pedagogical personnel, therefore the question of the value-semantic expectations from the teaching profession is important. The purpose of the work is to determine the teachers and pupil’s value-semantic foundations of pedagogical activity. Sample of the study: 61 pupils of teacher classes, 425 teachers. Methods: operationalization of existing standards (educational and professional) and conceptual content analysis, which made it possible to develop an author’s methodology of values, laid down by educational and professional standards and adapt the MUST-test (for diagnosing values for purposes). Results: pupils are focused mainly on themselves, and teachers are focused on creating conditions for their activities. The system-forming values of the first — the ability to implement an individual approach to the child and knowledge of developing technologies, and the second-knowledge of the characteristics and technologies for creating a safe and comfortable educational environment. Diagnosed the tendency for teachers to replace the actual values with the declared. Teachers and pupils have approximately equal values-relationships aimed at the educational environment and professional activity, but values whose goal is the child occupy lower places in the rating. In both groups all values are expressed approximately equally, but they put different personal meaning into them.
