The development of the transliteracy of future educational-psychologists

Abstract

In the article the development of transliteracy among future educators and psychologists and its impact on professional competence was explored. The term “transliteracy” in this research is characterized by the ability to effectively work with information using digital devices, understand its significance, assess reliability, and apply it in practice. The article presents an overview of the issue of transliteracy in both foreign and domestic scientific literature. The authors highlight the modern requirements for future educators and psychologists, the application of information and digital technologies, and the need to develop transliteracy to ensure students can access various information sources in the digital space. To assess the current state of transliteracy among university students, a special survey was conducted and analyzed. Innovative methods aimed at developing transliteracy in research work are shown to enhance cognitive, communicative, and critical thinking skills, fostering independent information search and evaluation. Based on their findings, the authors recommend innovative approaches such as project-based learning, presentation opportunities, digital portfolios, and game-based learning to enhance transliteracy among future educators and psychologists. The results of the study let the authors give recommendations for the development of transliteracy of future educational-psychologists.
