THE REAL STATE OF PREPARATION OF FUTURE TEACHERS-PHILOLOGISTS FOR RESEARCH WORK

Abstract

The article reveals the main results of the study of the readiness of future teachers of philology to carry out research activities. The study of the state of the problem in the scientific literature shows that researchers pay the most attention to the content and specifics of research activities in general. The works of many scientists reflect the formation of the creative personality of the teacher, the development of creative potential and creative individuality of the teacher and methods of its formation, creative style and creative activity of students in the process of their preparation. The generalization of scientific work on the problem of preparing future teachers of philology for research allowed to reveal its essence, which, in our opinion, is a creative search for future teachers of philology of optimal ways to solve research problems, resulting in novelty, originality and social significance. The study of the state of organization of the educational process on the formation of research skills of future teachers of philology of higher educational institutions confirmed the relevance and feasibility of the chosen research problem. The results of the observational experiment allowed to draw a conclusion about the insufficient level of readiness of future teachers of philology to carry out research activities: they are poorly versed in its essence, superficially oriented in the methods and techniques of scientific research; insufficiently convinced of the need to involve all students in scientific work. We have identified significant reasons for shortcomings in the organization and preparation of future teachers of philology for research: weak practical orientation of research work of students, insufficient information base, inefficient implementation of research results, weak mutual interest and responsibility for student results and teaching scientific research. Our analysis showed that scientists and researchers have not developed the problem of preparing future teachers of philology for research work, as well as did not clarify the theoretical foundations, pedagogical conditions and methods of such training.
