ПСИХОЛОГО-ПЕДАГОГІЧНА ХАРАКТЕРИСТИКА ОСОБИСТОСТІ ПЕДАГОГА ТА ЙОГО ДІЯЛЬНОСТІ В СУЧАСНИХ УМОВАХ

History of Education allows us to understand that the pedagogical professional activities are based on two principles: philosophical and reflective and "accompanying", "supportive". The main method of philosophical knowledge acts is reflection that is based on ability of advanced thinking to produce knowledge "by itself." The reflective activities, is the main aspect of any educational process, organic inclusion in the processes of self-development, self-training, self-education, bears man creation potential. The reflection opens the way for education to overcome existential contradiction between methodological basis for the most difficult educational problems of today and those "everyday" ways of solving them, ruling in mass pedagogical practice. Equally important in the process of personal and professional self-development of teacher, in our opinion, is the human development and contemplation in which priorities are spirituality, high values, above all conscience, honesty, dignity and morality. This reflects the true essence of human existence and life. We consider it necessary to note that for the spiritual and moral renewal of the future of teachers and teacher-practitioner (and society) requires qualitatively different ethics of human behavior, human relations, built on common human values.
