PODUFALOVA K. The formation of a responsible attitude to pedagogical activity among the students of the pedagogical college

The analysis of domestic and foreign pedagogical, psychological, sociological and scientific sources proved that the problem of forming a responsible attitude to pedagogical activity is one of the most urgent and prioritized in the system of higher pedagogical education of Ukraine. In the dissertation research, it is argued that one of the most important aspects of the formation of a responsible attitude of a student towards the pedagogical activity is its active character, which is manifested in the ability to mobilize willpower when choosing a responsible strategy of behavior with the awareness of the consequences of one’s own actions. By a responsible attitude to pedagogical activity, we understand an important personal and professional quality of a teacher, which is formed in the course of interaction with all the participants of the educational process and is manifested in the readiness to predict the results of their activities, implemented in compliance with the principles of professional ethics, based on the freedom of free choice and the awareness of their social and professional commitments.
