ABOUT DEVELOPMENT OF SKILLS OF ELEMENTARY CLASSES TEACHERS TO PEDAGOGICALLY SUPPORT THE RESEARCH (PROJECT) ACTIVITY OF STUDENTS
An analysis of the literature and the practice of forming a teacher’s own skills to organize and accompany research (project) activities indicates significant difficulties that he encounters in his daily activities. The insufficient level of scientific and theoretical knowledge, methodological and methodological training does not allow the teacher to successfully set and independently solve the problems of accompanying students in the educational process. Many teachers experience significant difficulties in organizing and supporting research activities: initiating and defining a research topic, formulating a scientific apparatus, preparing tools for collecting information and conducting an experiment. The article substantiates the conditions for the development of teacher’s skills to organize and carry out pedagogical support of research and project activities of primary school students. These conditions contribute to the formation of these skills of a primary school teacher, especially since the system of continuous teacher education provides significant opportunities for this. The described work carried out based on the ideas of cooperation pedagogy, stimulating productive interaction of community members, which contributes to the development of the qualities necessary for pedagogical support of students’ activities.
