Creative aspects in
pedagogy.
In the study of creativity and its impact on the
individual much attention
is paid by scientists
in their research to pedagogical creativity. In
modern conditions in the educational environment potential of the individual, skills, talent and quality are becoming increasingly important.
A new century is
the age of intellectual
creativity. A creative employee potential takes the first place - his professionalism, erudition, ability to work,
creative thinking. It is the key to the success of the educational process.
Currently, the level of creativity, creation,
distribution and consumption of knowledge is an important characteristic of a society. Educational
work is always creative
because of a number of
interrelated reasons. First,
student and teacher personalities are as unique
as teaching situations and circumstances, and
therefore each time we need new
approaches, new techniques and solutions to solve educational
problems. If we take formulaic, standard solutions we won’t get
the results we want, we’ll
go to a dead end, beyond
the term "educational work". Secondly, for teachers and especially
for the students a primary creative activity is more acceptable; reproductive work
(repetition, memorization, reproduction ) is also important
for the acquisition of knowledge and skills, but takes the second place, it is less
attractive and
effective. Personal development takes place primarily in
the creative hard work of the mind, emotions, will, of human hands. Third, the
work of teachers looks like both scientists’
and artists’ work
(actor, writer, musician, painter). So it
needs considerable research abilities and skills to a natural transformation to
another tone and dynamic behavior and actions. And it is always creativity and transformation of
a person, his culture, the acquisition of new, improved quality, and
this process inevitably leads to creative development of students.
Specificity of pedagogical creativity according
to M.M.Potashnyk
lies primarily in the fact
that the object and its result is the creation of the
individual, not the image, as in art, not a mechanism or a design,
as in the technique [4, c.7]. This was expressed by
a well - known
Russian pedagogue of late
XIX - early XX century V. Vakhterov "If education - the art, it is the highest of
all the arts, because it does not deal with marble, not a canvas and paints,
and with human beings and then school is the highest art studio ..." [1,
p.3].
Since the object of pedagogical creativity is a person,
as a rule, it is always co-authorship. Especially when it comes to the
educational process in high school, where in contrast to secondary school,
young people get education not by obligation, but on his own, conscious choice.
What is then
the educational process as a joint work (co-creation) of a teacher
and a student? A teacher being in
the classroom and his work with students –it does not mean that pedagogical process is taking
place. "This educational process
occurs when the situation of
educational interaction and educational situation of human transformation has been created. If
there is no real interaction
and real transformation , there is no teaching process "- said M.D.Nykandrov.
[3, p.21]. This is confirmed by research and experience of teachers. Thus,
creativity is a prerequisite of educational process and objective professional need
of teachers. Creativity is the main feature of training and education. It
should be added that not only the subject of pedagogical
creativity is specific - a person who grows and develops; but its main
"tool" - a person of the teacher-creator. Only in acting and teaching
profession this unique personality and "tool" match can be seen.
Teacher’s
arts integrates, synthesizes a scientific, technical and
artistic creativity. At different stages of pedagogical action the teacher
should discover the skills and abilities
of scientists to forecast, analysis, synthesis, to strict reasoning, the
ability of the writer's imaginative, juicy story, the custom capability of actor
to convey the mood and attitude to the student’s actions (intonation,
facial expressions, gesture) and thus never err, being himself. The teacher, like a
scientist has to master the methods of scientific research, be natural
experimenter. But this is only one side of this activity. In addition, the
teacher gives scientific facts, hypotheses, theories of a new
life, opening the mind and heart of his pupils, introducing the achievements of
science in the living flesh of their work.
Teacher’s
Arts is
manifested in solving communication problems. V.A.
Kan Kalyk, along with highlighting logical and pedagogical aspect of teacher’s
creativity and subjective emotional detail specifies the communication skills
that are particularly evident in solving situational problems. These skills include the ability to manage their mental
and emotional state, to act in a public setting (communication to assess the
situation, to draw the audience's attention or individual students using a
variety of techniques, etc.) and others. Another
specific feature of pedagogical creativity is that it has public aspect,
carried out in public. The teacher should manage his mental condition, keep the mechanisms of
self-control and self-regulation in constant readiness to cause creative rise both of students
and teachers. [2]. Creative personality is characterized
by the particular
combination of personal and professional qualities features that characterize creativity.
Professional originality of pedagogical work is that it
can not be complete algorithmic,
although there is some sustainability techniques and skills used. The use of
standardized methods in the ever-changing, non-standard and non-stationary
situations requires constant upgrades and correction. Moreover, it is at the
junction of existing technologies, new pedagogical methods and systems.
The fundamentals
of teachers’ creativity are formed and placed
in the process of training and further development of
his professional activity. The problem of formation of the creative person depends mostly
on the institution, on the organization of the educational process that contributes
to the creative potential of students. The creative potential
"trigger" mechanism of self-creative personality.
Psychological Science states that everyone has creative
potential, you need to learn to identify it, to develop and use it.
