DYNAMICS OF FORMING FUTURE SOCIAL WORKERS’ TOLERANCE IN THE PROCESS OF HIGHER PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION

Abstract

The paper discusses the problem of formation and development of future social workers’ tolerance in the process of higher professional education. The author presents the factors that hinder the development of tolerance. The research revealed the leading role of education in the formation of tolerance and proved the necessity of developing tolerance in future social workers. Empirically the differences in the formation of tolerance as personality traits of students majoring in “Social Work” and students from non-humanitarian faculties (e.g. the Faculty of Physics) were revealed. The author identified the lack of positive linear dynamics of formation of tolerance as personality traits of future social workers in the learning process at the University. The paper describes the specifics of internalizing tolerance of future social workers in the process of higher education.
