Influence of Individualised Teaching Methods on Improving the Professional Flexibility of Future Primary School Teachers
Abstract
The study aims to determine the effectiveness of individualised teaching methods for developing future primary school teachers' professional flexibility. The authors have developed individualised learning mechanisms that provide for the development of language competence, as well as mathematical, interdisciplinary and innovative competence. It has been determined that the most significant impact on the development of professional flexibility, in the opinion of teachers and students, was made by language and interdisciplinary competence, which contributed to the clarity of their thoughts. The study results showed the achievement of a high level of information assimilation by future teachers after training (0.74). It was found that individualised learning mechanisms contributed to the formation of developmental individualisation (23%) and creative thinking (22%) in the first place. The work's practical significance is finding effective mechanisms for forming professional flexibility for future primary school teachers.
