The need for reforms in the field of education arose with the realization that the educational activities of many institutions did not give the desired effect and after school, schoolchildren and students remain with exactly the same baggage of knowledge with which they came. In order to get acquainted with this problem closer, you need to get acquainted with the concept of educational activity, its components and implementation in the modern education system.
Educational activity is one of the most important and basic activities of each person, the result of which is the development of new skills. It consists of components such as a training task, a training action, a control action, and an evaluation action. In fact, these concepts are the algorithm by which the training itself takes place. Many educators have devoted years to researching the question of how best to present information to students so that it is absorbed by them as much as possible and can later be put into practice. The main trend that they brought was that it is easier to educate them among peers. At the same time, people of the same age group should not only be simultaneously indoors, but also interact with each other. It is their cooperation that will lead to the achievement of high results of the digestibility of information and its application in practice. For this reason, students' educational activities are often associated with seminars or trainings, where they can learn new skills and knowledge in the process of studying them together with their colleagues. At school, in the lower grades, you can visually see confirmation of this statement in lessons based on the principle of the game. It is interesting that the teacher should not actively intervene in the educational process, but only lead him, approving the correct finds of his students and adjusting their knowledge.
The traditional training system has proven to be not very effective. Because throughout all the years of study, teaching takes place in the same way. It is interesting that neither the age criterion of students, nor gender, nor social, nor their psychotypes are taken into account. In fact, teachers only in a more or less accessible form give information to students, which also has not changed for many years, despite the numerous metamorphoses in the world and society. In other words, there is no development of thinking. Memory develops, speech, but not thinking, not the ability to build logical connections between events and people, there is no thirst for knowledge.
The standard set of subjects that a student must learn over the years of study does not contribute to his personal growth. The development of talents in him, which later could become his profession. If the student has a pronounced interest in the humanities, but the ability to master technical disciplines is below average, then it is worthwhile to strengthen his strengths, and not forcefully impose on him the information that will remain on the threshold of the educational institution on the day of its graduation from there.
Some teachers believe that higher educational activity is an independent educational activity. The knowledge that the student received on his own will be more valuable and understandable for him. But this does not mean that it is possible to give him assignments and on this end his studies. On the contrary, the teacher should develop in the student a desire to independently search for answers to questions, learn more than he can give in a few academic hours. You can arouse interest in the subject by changing the standard reading of lectures and the delivery of homework, to non-standard lessons that would affect the interests of the student himself. They gave him the opportunity to feel part of the process, his full participant, whose opinion is no less important than the teacher.
