Kharchenko T. G. “Teacher Training Guide” as an Instrument of the Individualization of Teacher Training Programs in Modern France
Kharchenko T. G., Candidate of Pedagogical Sciences, Associate Professor, Luhansk Taras Shevchenko National University.
Abstract
One of the pathways of implementing the educational reform in France is the individualization of the modern teacher training. This approach is based on the premise that the conscious choice of profession is important for future nursery, primary, and secondary school teachers and that such choice is possible only if students are given exhaustive information about the organization of teacher training in France early in their specialized pedagogical education.
Every year each University Teacher Training Institute publishes The Teacher Training Guide, which is also available on the Institute’s website. This Guide is subject-specific and contains a detailed information about the infrastructure of the University Teacher Training Institute, typical career path and career development opportunities of a teacher in France, basic competencies students are expected to develop by the time of graduation, as well as the year-by-year content, forms, and methods of teacher training, with a distribution of theoretical and practical aspects of courses. It also features the results of competitive state recruitment exams that the Institute’s graduates have taken over the past years when seeking employment in French educational establishments. Another important part of the Guide is the list of publications, documents, and information materials that can be used in the process of the initial professional training.
Key words: pedagogical education/teacher training in France, University Teacher Training Institute, individualization, The Teacher Training Guide.
