A strategic paradigm for researching the development process of teachers' professional creative activity in the context of information diversity

the article addresses the urgent issue of developing teachers' professional creative activity in the context of the modern information society. The author substantiates the inadequacy of the traditional knowledge-oriented paradigm and the need to shift towards new models of teacher education. A proprietary concept of a strategic paradigm is proposed as the methodological foundation for the research, defined as a comprehensive system of value-semantic, theoretical, and technological frameworks aimed at studying and designing the process of forming an innovative teacher. The essence and multicomponent structure of professional creative activity are revealed, including motivational-value, cognitive, activity-technological, and reflective components. Based on the integration of systemic, activity-based, axiological, and synergetic approaches, a structural-functional model for the development of creative activity is developed, consisting of target, content-procedural, diagnostic-corrective, and result-evaluative blocks. Special attention is given to the role of information diversity as a key factor that is both a challenge and a resource for creative development. The article provides a detailed description of the set of organizational and pedagogical conditions necessary for the effective implementation of the model: creating a creative educational environment, integrating formal, non-formal, and informal education, implementing a stimulating motivation system, and fostering a team-based organizational culture. A set of modern pedagogical technologies that contribute to the development of creative potential is presented and characterized, including technologies for developing creative thinking (brainstorming, synectics, TRIZ), technologies for organizing project activities (project method, case study), and technologies for reflection (portfolio, supervision). The article presents a holistic concept that holds both theoretical and practical significance for modernizing the system of teacher training and professional development.
