Model of development of professional and social-psychological competences of a teacher in the field of patriotic education

the article is devoted to the definition of a set of competencies of teachers necessary for solving strategically important and priority tasks of the modern education system – educating the younger generation in the spirit of patriotism by introducing them to the historical and cultural heritage of the country. To achieve this goal, the authors of the article conducted a content analysis of regulatory documents and scientific and practical literature on the topic of the study. Thus, in addition to substantiating the idea that the teacher is a key figure in the process of patriotic education in students, a number of competencies were established that act as predictors of his successful pedagogical activity in this direction. At the same time, despite the fact that the teacher's competencies were differentiated into two relatively independent groups (professional and socio-psychological), the authors substantiated the importance of their interrelation and complementarity in the practice of patriotic education. These findings indicated the importance of developing professional and socio-psychological competencies in teachers for the successful solution of patriotic education problems through. As a result of searching for ways to solve this problem, the authors of the study developed a model for the development of professional and socio-psychological competencies of a teacher in the field of patriotic education. The model consists of six complementary stages, while the success of the implementation of each subsequent stage of the simultaneous development of professional and socio-psychological competencies of a teacher is determined by the success of the implementation of the previous one. This model can be successfully used to prepare teaching staff for patriotic education in the system of secondary and higher professional pedagogical education, as well as in additional professional education for teachers.
