A new model of the formation of social and labor activity of students: model evaluations

Relevance. In modern society, where knowledge and intellectual development are key strategic resources for economic growth, the status of education has greatly increased. Forming key competencies in students, including social and labor functions, is a top priority for the global education system. Purpose. The problem of forming the key competencies of the future teacher in general and socio-labor in particular is a relatively new scientific problem. Therefore, the purpose of our research is to develop a model for the formation of social and labor functions of the future teacher and evaluate its effectiveness. Methodology. To solve the tasks and verify the initial assumptions, we used a set of complementary research methods: theoretical analysis of philosophical, psychological, and pedagogical literature; sociological methods (questionnaires, conversations); study and generalization of pedagogical experience; observation; experimental methods (stating and forming experimental variants); mathematical and statistical methods. Results. As a result, the study specified the scientific understanding of the content of the concept �socio-labor function and competence� and identified the functions of their components and the principles of implementation of the model of formation of social and labor competencies of the future teacher; grounded indicators of socio-labor competencies identified and experimentally tested pedagogical conditions providing the formation of social-labor competencies of the future teacher. Conclusions. The implementation of the model of the formation of social and labor activity in line with modernization strategies creates a supportive, competence-oriented educational environment that integrates general and supplementary education. A strong correlation exists between social and labor relations and social skills, as well as between the motivational, cognitive, and activity components of the competencies developed through experimental training. The practical significance of the research lies in its focus on improving the activities of universities in the formation of social and labor competencies of future teachers.
