Designing an individual educational trajectory for future primary school teachers

Abstract

Global changes in the system of higher and postgraduate education offer new approaches to the organization of the educational process that meet the requirements of science and culture in the society and post-industrial trends in general. Therefore, universities attach great importance to creating the necessary conditions for students for the choice of self-education, independence and self-determination in the educational process. The creation of such conditions is possible with the implementation of individual trajectories of vocational education. The high professionalism of future primary school teachers depends not only on the level of professional training, but also on how well students are trained to meet their professional and personal needs and interests, taking into account their individual characteristics. The analysis of scientific and pedagogical literature, the results of practice indicate insufficient organizational, legal and information support for the development and implementation of individual educational trajectories of students. Students experience certain difficulties in choosing and implementing educational trajectories. The individual educational trajectory of students is defined as a way to realize their intellectual and personal potential; as a means of free choice and satisfaction of educational interests and needs; as an opportunity to achieve a high level of development. The study revealed the leading trends in the pedagogical design of individual educational trajectories of future primary school teachers (individualization; increased subjectivity, nonlinearity, mobility, polyfurationism), which is directly related to the effectiveness of building an individual educational trajectory of students of higher and postgraduate education. As stated in the Order No. 561 of the Minister of Education and Science of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated November 12, 2021: “In order to increase the transparency and efficiency of the education management system since 2020, the national educational database (hereinafter referred to as the NED) monitors the trajectory of the student's educational process from preschool education to the moment of employment “work will continue on an individual educational trajectory, providing for the creation of an accessible and student-centered environment for students”. The quality of this monitoring directly depends on the effectiveness of construction an individual educational trajectory of students of higher and postgraduate education. The leading tendencies of pedagogical design of individual educational trajectories of future primary school teachers are revealed: individualization; increased subjectivity, nonlinearity, mobility, polyfurationality
