ʺTheoretical aspects of professional competence development of mastersoligophrenoeducators in the system of professional trainingʺ

Abstract

The article actualizes the problem of developing the professional competence of masters of
oligophrenic educators in the system of professional training. Attention is focused on the increased attention
of the state to the issue of equal access to knowledge of children with special educational needs, which leads
to an increased role of specialists in the field of special education. As a result, there are changes in the
educational paradigm and improvements in regulatory and legal support. Based on the results of the analysis
of scientific and pedagogical literature, it was found that the problem of developing the professional
competence of master's students in the system of professional training is insufficiently developed. The works
of scientists highlight certain aspects of this problem: competence and its structure, the role of educational
components in the development of general competence, the process of forming professional competence, the
leading characteristics of professional competence, the features of professional competence, the development
of a special educator, the training of future special education specialists for inclusive education of children
with special educational needs. The article also substantiates the importance of general and professional
competence in the development of professional competence of master oligophrenic teachers. The author
emphasizes that mastering general competence and professional competence is the basis for the development
of professional competence, and therefore professional training in higher education should be aimed at their
development in master's students. The author concludes that the development of professional competence is based on the study of basic educational components, the mastery of which allows master's students to gain
knowledge of the basics of pedagogical science. The role of studying special methods is emphasized, which
occurs through the acquisition of special knowledge necessary for professional activity. The prospect of
further research is to clarify the essence and structure of the professional competence of master oligophrenic
educators in the system of professional training.
