TECHNOLOGICAL COMPETENCE OF HIGHER EDUCATION STUDENTS AS A PROBLEM OF PEDAGOGICAL SCIENCE AND PRACTICE

The article on the basis of competence and technological scientific approaches considers the understanding of technological competence of higher education students in the domestic pedagogical science and practice. Attention is focused on the idea of comparing pedagogical processes with production ones in the works of Ya.A. Comenius, A. Makarenko, famous Ukrainian (A. Aleksyuk, V. Bondar, I. Zyazyuna, V. Loza, I. Pidlasy, etc.) and foreign (B. Bloom, M. Woolman, M. Clark, P. Mitchell , R. Thomas and others). The main provisions of the competence scientific approach (O. Guzman, G. Selevko, O. Savchenko, V. Serikov, I. Khutorsky, etc.) are emphasized, which emphasize the technological component of professional competence of specialists of different qualifications. In the content of technological competence of higher education students there are two blocks (block of knowledge - methodological-theoretical, information-content, methodical, technological, creative; block of techniques - a set of different methods and techniques of human interaction with equipment, machines and other tools that determine the ability to design and design new technologies, the development of creative abilities of the specialist). A distinction is made between the concepts of "pedagogical technology" (contains operational and operational and procedural components of teacher or teacher competence) and "production technology" (is a system of creative and technological knowledge, abilities and stereotypes of instrumentalized activities to create or transform objects of reality into selected professional field). The experience of defining the concept of "technological competence of a specialist" in the main meanings is systematized: 1) communication technology, interaction technology, technology of organization of individual activity; 2) traditional learning technology, which means the use of methods, tools and forms; 3) the focus of the specialist on achieving the planned result (set and sequence of methods and processes for the implementation of the project product or work). In the context of this, the understanding of technological competence of higher education seekers as an integrated personality trait containing knowledge, technological skills, creative and technological abilities, technological reflection on the leading processes of professional activity and creativity is chosen.
