Experience of Developing Reflexive Competence in a Future Teacher at a University
The theoretical and methodological foundations for the prospective teachers’ reflexive competence formation, modeling the development process and its implementation in the educational space of the university are examined in the article. The idea of the research is that the effective formation of the student's reflexive competence, considered in the mainstream of reflexive activity is based on subjective relationships, interaction in dialogue, diversity of positions and individualization. It is emphasized that these pedagogical conditions are implemented in non-linear and collective learning at the university, based on a conscious choice of forms, content, teaching aids and methods in the educational space of the university. Purpose of the research is to check the theoretical and conceptual foundations for the development of the prospective teachers’ reflexive competence in the framework of higher education. The research results show that the development of the reflexive competence of a prospective teacher in the educational space is a very long process and needs a special pedagogical organization. The author comes to the conclusion that the meaning of the process of developing of a prospective teacher’s reflexive competence can be considered self-movement in the professional and personal terms.
