Topics on self-education for kindergarten teachers according to the Federal State Educational Standard: increasing the level of skill

How to choose a topic for self-education?

There are only two main criteria:

• requirement to study the topic from the outside (formulated in regulatory documents, in particular, in the Federal State Educational Standard for Preschool Education);
• the work of the teacher himself (lack of experience and knowledge to resolve a particular pedagogical situation).

Thus, before choosing a topic, you need to familiarize yourself with the regulatory framework for preschool education and analyze your own experience.

According to the Federal State Educational Standard, a preschool child develops in the following areas:

• social and communicative;
• educational;
• speech;
• artistic and aesthetic;
• physical.

Self-study notebook with notes in the margins

Having determined the “basis” for yourself, as you read further these books, you write out for yourself: forms (forms of organizing the educational process: individual, pair, group, frontal), methods (methods of pedagogical activity). I advise you to read a textbook on pedagogy for pedagogical schools, author Smirnov (I don’t remember his name and patronymic right now), year of publication - after 2000, but no one has yet described the methods and techniques of pedagogical activity better than him. Just don’t take the classification of methods by Yu.K. Babansky. I have a great attitude towards him, but he died in 1985 (23 years ago!!!! :() and during this time his classification has simply become outdated. With Babansky’s classification you will not be able to model your professional informatization activities competently, in a modern way), means , conditions. You see, I have already sketched out a 5-point plan for you. At each point, you choose for yourself those that you understand, accept and are able to implement. I didn’t say the main thing at first: in order to take on the topic of informatization, you need to take INFORMATICS. Otherwise, you need to link to the following topic of self-education: “Elimination of computer illiteracy.” Don't be surprised - this is a very good topic!

Scheme for planning work on self-education. Another option

Planning of self-educational work (scheme) Individual self-education plan for _____year Teacher ____________________________________ Direction of the circle___________________________ Full name _____________________________________ Education (when and what educational institution did you graduate from) __________ When did you take courses _____________________ What literature does you study during the year ________ Where and when did you speak on the topic? ___________________ Self-educational work on the topic: 1. Topic CTDM. 2. Individual topic of self-education. 3. When work on the topic began. 4. When is it expected to finish working on the topic. 5. Goals and objectives of self-education on the topic. 6. Main issues planned for study. Stages of material development. 7. Literature on the topic, by year. 8. Whose experience is expected to be studied on this topic. 9. Creative cooperation on the topic of self-education. 10. Practical outputs (reports, abstracts). 11. Study of best practices (how many lessons and extracurricular activities attended). 12. When and where did he give a report on his own teaching experience? 13. Conclusions at the end of the work.

Having built a “theory” of the problem for yourself, begin to implement it on your favorite topic of ONE lesson. If you have several classes in parallel (a teacher’s dream!!!!), then in the first year of your self-education (and your mini-research) you will be able to test your FIRST achievements in ONE class, comparing the results obtained (children’s learning). Those. You will have one class as a control class (you work as usual), and the other as an experimental class. The most acceptable way to check the results: give the same measures (for example, tasks, examples). In this case, you need to pay attention: classes are always different in their abilities. Experiment in a weak class!!! (This is the rule of pedagogical science: achieve good results in a weak class!). Then reflect on the results obtained very honestly for yourself. Record everything (graphs, questionnaires, etc.). Of course, there will be a need to redo something, add something, etc. And again - record (what was changed, why, what was replaced). And throughout the next year, engage in “self-education”: read, read and read on your problem “Informatization”, including articles from pedagogical journals (fortunately, there are now a lot of electronic ones), articles from scientific and practical conferences (unfortunately, teachers they are not read at all, but they contain the most valuable new experience!!!).At this stage, it would be very great if you got acquainted with the work experience of your colleagues (in the educational institution, district, city, Russia) on this problem (how to do this, I think there is no need to explain). And keep thinking and thinking: what needs to be done for a perfectly informatized favorite lesson! In the second year, teach your favorite topic in a new way. And again - a cross-section of learning skills (if you use the same diagnostic tools: tasks, examples, then you will very easily see “growth over growth”!. That is, a comparison of work both in the old and in the new way: You teach children (“growth”), but innovation should (or maybe not) lead to the better (“growth”!) If this happens, “a medal on your chest and a monument during your lifetime!” So, your topic is self-education "works" positively! And then, the next year, you "expand" the area of ​​the experiment: take two lessons, a whole topic. And that's enough!!! Believe me, I've seen more than a dozen candidate dissertations "done" on one topic . I think you understand: the topic is in one class, for example, in the 5th. If there is a need, “expand in breadth,” but better “in depth.” Use other programs (we are talking about informatization), other tasks, introduce computer control knowledge and everything on your FAVORITE topic. And then: open classes (on this topic), seminars, master classes, etc. Of course, I have now very schematically given you not only the technology of self-education (maybe even to a lesser extent), but also recording its results. I think my recommendations will be useful.

How to work by topic

Work on each of the listed topics begins with an analysis of the literature (an approximate list of sources is given below). When reading books, the teacher identifies the main thoughts, ideas, and judgments of the authors. So, taking up the topic of using didactic games to develop safe life skills in children, the teacher:

• draws attention to the peculiarities of organizing didactic games in different age groups;
• content of work on life safety in preschool educational institutions.

Then the teacher thinks through or also takes from books potentially dangerous situations that need to be avoided, and based on the knowledge gained, compiles a card index of games. He develops games himself or takes them from sources. Systematized materials are tested in practice.

Relevance of the chosen topic:

Teaching children to draw using non-traditional techniques is interesting and exciting! Drawing with non-traditional techniques liberates children and allows them not to be afraid of doing something wrong. Drawing with unusual materials and original techniques

allows children to experience unforgettable positive emotions.

Emotions are both a process and a result of practical activity—artistic creativity. Drawing using non-traditional image techniques does not tire preschoolers; they remain highly active and efficient throughout the entire time allotted for completing the task. Non-traditional techniques allow for an individual approach to children, taking into account their desires and interests. Non-traditional drawing techniques are the most important matter of aesthetic education; these are ways to create a new, original work of art in which everything is in harmony: color, line, and plot.

An unconventional approach to creating images gives impetus to the development of children's intellect, encourages the child's creative activity, and teaches him to think outside the box. New ideas arise related to combinations of different materials, the child begins to experiment and create.

Non-traditional drawing techniques are a real flame of creativity, it is an impetus for the development of imagination, the manifestation of independence, initiative, and expression of individuality

The path to creativity has many roads for them, known and still unknown. Creativity for children is a reflection of mental work. Feelings, mind, eyes and hands are the instruments of the soul. The creative process is truly a miracle. “In creativity there is no right way, there is no wrong way, there is only your own way.”
