The phenomenon of artistic and pedagogical mentality in terms of the professional activity of a fine art teacher
Abstract
In the study, an attempt was made to represent the conceptual meaning and specifics of the artistic and pedagogical mentality of a modern art teacher. The aim of the study was to highlight the structural organization of the phenomenon of artistic and pedagogical mentality of an art teacher. The article highlights the terminological contours of the categories “mindset” and “mentality” in modern scientific discourse. It was revealed that the psychological and pedagogical content of mentality consists in a special way of thinking, the orientation of thoughts that are born in the subconscious, but gradually absorb what is common, what consists of natural data and socially conditioned elements and is reflected in the perception of professional reality. It is maintained that the professional mentality of a teacher is an integrative characteristic of a personality that reflects the system-specific features of the mental makeup and worldview of people in the teaching profession. The structure of artistic and pedagogical mentality of art teachers includes: artistic and figurative thinking, artistic and creative reflexivity, pedagogical creativity, multi-artistic orientation, professional and pedagogical intentionality, scientific-research culture. The functional-role and conceptual significance of the phenomenon “artistic pedagogical mentality” in terms of the specifics of the professional activity of a modern art teacher is determined. The author determines pedagogical conditions for the formation of the artistic and pedagogical mentality of future fine art teachers: the formation of a positive value attitude of future art teachers at the worldview level and an active motivational focus on the formation of the artistic and pedagogical mentality; introduction of pedagogical situations of quasi-professional activity, which require activation of the mechanisms of artistic and pedagogical mentality into the process of professional and pedagogical training of future art teachers; actualization of personal and professional reflection as a basis for artistic and creative self-development of future art teachers.
