The Importance of Designing the Educational Process for Improving the Pedagogical Culture of Future Teachers

Large-scale reforms in education, globalization and the development of modern pedagogical approaches are radically changing the requirements for the content and quality of teacher training. The priority given to personality-oriented, competence-based and innovative approaches demands that future teachers improve not only their professional knowledge and skills but also their pedagogical culture, which is understood here as an essential professional quality integrating a teacher’s professional skills, pedagogical thinking, moral qualities, communication culture, creativity and ability to organize the educational process effectively. The aim of the study is to identify the theoretical and pedagogical foundations of designing the educational process in order to improve the pedagogical culture of future teachers, to refine its content as well as its organizational and methodological mechanisms and pedagogical potential, and to determine effective pedagogical conditions. The study analyzed the pedagogical potential of educational-process design together with its content and methodological foundations; the methodology rests on personality-oriented, competence-based, systemic-activity and integrative (CC approaches, which make it possible to study the pedagogical culture of future BY) license teachers as a holistic pedagogical phenomenon, to identify its structural components and to substantiate the mechanisms of its development. The results show that improving the pedagogical culture of future teachers is one of the key tasks of modern teacher education and that scientific-pedagogical design of the educational process is of particular importance in organizing this work effectively, since pedagogical culture emerges from the harmony of professional knowledge, pedagogical thinking, moral and ethical views, communication culture, a creative approach and a responsible attitude toward professional work, so that a holistic pedagogical system aimed at forming these qualities is needed in teacher training. The theoretical analysis shows that purposeful and systematic design of the educational process allows professional knowledge, pedagogical thinking, moral and ethical views, communication culture and creative activity to develop in harmony.
