Abstract:
present paper addresses the issue of formation of foundations of pedagogical skills of future teachers. Due to the requirements of the concept of a New Ukrainian School, since a modern school needs a successful teacher who can solve professional problems in the quality of teaching, the use of interactive technologies in the educational process, and the establishment of its interaction between actors based on parity and cooperation. The article aims to determine the essence and components of teacher’s pedagogical skills and the peculiarities of their formation among the future teachers. The realization of the goal requires solving the following problems: 1) to reveal the essence of pedagogical skill and structure: 2) to offer various types of tasks to form the foundations of students’ pedagogical excellence. We used scientific methods of analysis, synthesis to clarify the essence and components of professional competence of future teachers, the definition of interactive methods and techniques for their effective formation in students; methods of generalization and systematization to formulate views on the interpretation of the essence of the concept of «pedagogical skills of a teacher». We defined the following teacher’s pedagogical skills as one of the most important and interconnected at each level of teacher training and self-improvement: readiness to perform professional pedagogical activity; integrating pedagogical creativity; professionally essential qualities; individual and activity components of pedagogical skills. We proposed tasks to form the individual (professionally important qualities) and activity (build a competent model, create a «value profile of an individual», readiness to fulfil the professional role as a teacher − innovator, coach, facilitator, tutor, mentor) components of future teacher’s pedagogical skills. We emphasize the importance of using pedagogical empowerment as future teachers’ ability to demonstrate pedagogical skills and confident implementation of professional activities.

Abstract:
Special education teachers are expected to fulfill diverse teaching and nonteaching tasks in comparison to their general education peers. However, their performance is evaluated with measures that were normed for use with general education teachers. These specialty teachers are also routinely evaluated by professionals who may lack formal special education training or experience. These conditions render special educators vulnerable for inaccurate performance evaluation. Explicit research is needed to clarify the professional skills that are most critical to special educators’ professional effectiveness and ensure continuity of focus on these skills in preservice teacher education and employment contexts. This qualitative study builds on an earlier empirical investigation that demonstrated consensus among three sets of professionals that the standards developed by Council for Exceptional Children’s (CEC) represented skills that are critical for special education teacher effectiveness. The current study describes which skill domains were identified as critical for special education teacher effectiveness across participant groups and those that reflected distinct groups’ perspectives. Implications for future research are presented relative to strategies to more clearly articulate special education teacher expertise and ways to strengthen continuity across preservice special education teacher education and in-service professional development contexts.

Abstract:
Teachers' Self-Assessment of Their Professional Skills According to the Teachers' Professional StandardThe expectations of teachers' role image have altered due to the quick changes in Estonian post-socialist society. Class teachers graduate from Tallinn University with a basic knowledge of teaching and readiness for continuous learning and self-development through daily work aimed at developing their professional competence. Teachers' 5th Professional Standard has been accepted to regulate teachers' work in Estonia. Participation in educational life fosters self-development and shapes professional and individual identity. Teachers' professional standard can guide teachers in assessing their own professional skills, including essential competence such as planning and guiding, creating the learning environment, motivating learning, co-operation, communication, and self-analysis. The research problem is: how do the teachers assess their professional skills? The data have been gathered using educational-ethnographic essay and a questionnaire clarifying the correspondence of teachers' professional skills to the standard of professional competence. The research is located within the qualitative paradigm. The highest value was attributed to the skill to consider the individual differences of each child and command of versatile teaching methods. The further development is needed in areas of sharing one's thoughts and experience with colleagues and parents' involvement in co-operation.

Abstract:
International assessments have revealed that students in numerous nations lack scientific reasoning skills. Science teachers who support students’ scientific skill development through the use of authentic practices provide students with tools needed for success in future science courses. Teachers training focused on pedagogy that supports student scientific reasoning development is particularly important as some studies have also suggested that pre-service teachers have a tendency to display a lack of scientific reasoning skills. Additionally, few studies exist that assess teachers’ scientific reasoning skills, including the effectiveness of professional development to strengthen teacher scientific reasoning abilities over time. To help fill this gap, this study examines the effects of a Modeling Instruction in a biology workshop on teachers’ scientific reasoning skills. In addition to teacher interviews, focus groups, and writing samples, data from Lawson’s Classroom Test of Scientific Reasoning (LCTSR) were collected from teachers before and after the workshop. The results suggest that the three-week Modeling Instruction in the biology workshop contributed to gains in in-service teachers’ scientific reasoning, and thus provides evidence that the teachers in this study are more prepared to help develop similar skills with their own students as they engage in the Modeling Instruction curriculum.

Teacher professional diaries are teacher reflections on their own and their colleagues’ observed practice. They are effective tools of increasing teacher qualification. Few research studies worldwide, while no such research studies in Georgia have been conducted on the impact of the application of reflective diaries on teachers’ reflective, communicative, and professional skills. Therefore, the aim of the research was to find out whether teachers’ reflective, communicative, and professional skills developed as a result of the application of reflective diaries, and if so, to what degree they increased. Quantitative research (an experiment with participation of 62 teachers) was held, with an experimental group whose participants wrote reflective diaries for 9 weeks and a control group which did not undergo any special treatment. A 5-point Likert scale questionnaire was developed, and its reliability and validity were assessed. Pre-experimental and post-experimental self-assessment questionnaire was held, the results were assessed and compared through descriptive statistics and a T-test. The results revealed that there was a positive average relationship between the application of diaries and reflective thinking, communicative and professional skills. According to the study results, the application of teacher reflective diary can be recommended as an effective tool for the development of reflective thinking, communication, and professional qualification.

Abstract:
The article analysis the attitudes of mentors to the development of student-teacher’s instructional communication skills through teaching practice. The objective of the research was to reveal the opinion of the mentors about the development of student-teacher’s instructional communication. For that purpose observation was carried out in the natural environment. That helped to reveal the peculiarities of students’ instructional communication skills at teaching practice. Semi-structured interview methods were applied to interview the mentors. The data obtained via the Questionnaire for Mentors allowed to assess the student-teachers’ communication skills, and to identify the key factors for theirs’ professional improvement. The interview data analysis presents mentors’ opinion about the dynamics of the student - teachers’ instructional communication skills at teaching practice, the importance of consultations, student-teachers’ assessment of their instructional skills, needs and possibilities of the skill improvement. It became evident that mentors’ assessment differed according to their work experience. When speaking about students’ assessment, the mentors of considerable experience (more than 5 years of continuous pedagogical work experience) admitted, that they had known students well through observing, communicating, consulting them, when talking to their colleagues they could assess their achievements. While the inexperienced mentors communicated with the student-teachers in a more formal way, they were less prepared to supervise students, help them know themselves and improve their instructional skills. When considering improvement possibilities of teaching practice, all mentors claimed that student-teacher’s professional skills are being gained only by practicing. The mentors stressed that readiness for pedagogical professional practice is very much dependent on student’s ability to participate, to reflect, on willingness for self-knowledge as well as strong professional determination; results of individual practice and consultations with competent professionals.

<p>Teacher professional development plays an important role in a teacher’s growth and every year school districts spend a large portion of their budgets in professional development activities. However, as districts face increasing budget cuts, funds for professional development compete against other district priorities. As a result, partnerships between school districts and teacher training institutions can play an important role in supplying school districts with professional development activities to fit their teachers’ needs. This article describes a partnership between a school district and a local university to provide over 100 hours of professional development to 30 elementary school teachers. Results from the evaluation of the program indicate that the program had a significant impact on participating teachers’ perceptions of their science knowledge and pedagogical skills.<strong></strong></p>

There are a great number of teachers of Islamic religious education who hold a professional diploma and yet have not realized the tasks of competent professional teacher. The four indicators of competent and professional teacher, as these are elaborated in Statutes and Regulations, have not been integrated in teacher performance. This problem must be resolved. It requires a system that can control the implementation of the principles of professional teacher while at the same time does not ruin teacher’s profession and capability. This article offers professional-based assessment and evaluation of teacher performance as a medium for a regular control. This system will be able to measure teacher performance referring to their skills and to avoid deviation in the evaluation between what is taught and the subject being taught concerning teachers’ professional skills. With this professional-based evaluation system, the processes of evaluation and assessment become objective, accurate and accountable.

Abstract:
Teaching is lifelong learning. Turning on all the time, new and old teachers, beginners or professionals will still grapple with how to improve many aspects of teaching, each year demanded to show more improvement. Every idea considers continuing professional development throughout your career. This article examines the following questions: 1. How to start assessing a teacher's professional skills? 2. Do teachers need to understand the standards used by others to assess their professional skills? 3. What model is used to describe the teacher's journey from 'beginner' to 'expert'? 4. How do expert teachers assess themselves and how do they overcome and adapt to change? 5. How can teachers collaborate to make structured observations of their work, as required by the assessment requirements? The results of the discussion concluded: 1) The complexity of assessment that binds teachers and schools continues to increase because assessment is used for various purposes in different contexts; 2) Interstate New Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium (InTASC) was formed to create "compatible with institutions" standards that can be reviewed by professional organizations and state institutions as a basis for licensing beginner teachers. The InTASC standard (Miller, 1992) is written as 10 principles, which are then further explained in terms of teacher knowledge, disposition, and performance; 3) There are many different theories describing the journey of preparation for beginner teachers to become professionals, this requires time, effort, and support and finally changes follow the predictable stages of development; 4) Teachers with high levels of expertise can observe and adapt their own actions. To do this, they must be in harmony with the feelings and behavior of children and pay attention to what children do and say, rather than focusing primarily on themselves, otherwise they do not equate judgment with testing. they take into account test scores, but their judgments are transient and are based on a much broader bank of evidence, specifically that progress over absolute scores and children's knowledge and context; 5) Teachers rarely can be authentic and accurate participant observers because of the inherent differences in their roles, but student / teacher collaborators have a unique perspective on insiders and outsiders, colleagues and observers, class members involved and critical collaborators

Abstract:
The level of professional qualification of a music art teacher is especially evident at the stage of creative and performing activities, when the synthesis of pedagogical and creative-performing components of activity allows to achieve the artistic influence of musical art on the individual. Analysis of the activities of music teachers of different levels of skill reveal the unity of pedagogical and creative- performing aspects of skill, their equivalence and complementarity in achieving teacher interaction with students. It is extremely important to reveal the original features of the national musical art (performance, creativity), education in the context of all the real preconditions, trends, factors of their development. There is a growing interest in theoretical and methodological issues of pedagogy and performance in each of the professional music fields. Improving the instrumental and performing training of young professionals, their active involvement in the system of pedagogical activity is a complex dialectical process, which is manifested in various forms of performing skills. The most important component of a musician's professional development is perfect musical and performance training. Various aspects of this process (physiological, psychological and pedagogical, etc.) are studied in the works of Yu. Bay, V. Bilous, E. Yorkina, E. Gurenko, M. Davydov, V. Knyazev, V. Razhnikov, V. Samitov, G. Tsypin etc. Important didactic principles of music teacher's knowledge development are the young teacher's own creative, aesthetic and professional self-improvement, supplementing the personal information and methodological base, creating an individual mobile system of effective pedagogical knowledge and skills that meet specific tasks. Attending concerts of academic music, opera and musical-dramatic performances, etc. (together with students, colleagues, independently); instrumental music, group singing; acquaintance with new musical works of various forms, genres, styles; training and performance as a performer (performers) at local, regional and other conferences, festivals, concerts, performances, etc. actively contribute to the creative self-improvement of the music teacher.

Abstract:
This article presents findings from an exploratory pilot project which aimed at fostering electronic and professional literacy skills of preservice language teachers through computer-mediated peer collaboration. The research context is a qualitative case study involving cooperation via the email and chat functions of FirstClass among preservice teachers at the Justus-Liebig Universität in Giessen and the Pädagogische Hochschule Heidelberg in Germany. The author investigates participants’ prior experiences with regard to computer skills, Internet proficiency, and technology-based language learning and teaching. Next, she discusses benefits and challenges for preservice teachers with respect to collaborating via computers (computer-mediated communication or CMC) with their transatlantic partners. In collecting and analyzing preservice teachers’ reflections, a Grounded Theory approach (Strauss & Corbin, 1998) was used. Instances of electronic and professional literacies were identified and triangulated with data from pre-course questionnaires, post-course self-assessments, logs, email and chat transcripts, and field notes. The author discusses benefits and challenges which preservice teachers encountered through the collaboration. Findings include preservice teachers’ differing levels of electronic literacy skills, tolerance for ambiguity, institutional constraints, peer feedback, and perception of the final product. Based on her findings, the author stresses the need to encourage preservice teachers’ meta-level reflections on the challenges of the collaboration and suggests conducting longitudinal follow-up studies in order to investigate if and how in-service teachers apply the knowledge they gained from their teacher education program to their own teaching.

Different approaches to the improvement of the skills of teachers are highlighted and models of professional development of teachers in the conditions of reform of postgraduate pedagogical education are offered. The research methods are presented, among them analysis, systematization and comparison of scientific positions to determine the theoretical approaches to solving the problem of professional development of teachers, modeling for creation of various trajectories of professional development of teachers; empirical: observation, conversation,interviewing. The criteria for constructing models of professional development of the teacher are defined and each of them is characterized by indicators and examples of introduction in postgraduate education. The basic approaches to realization of models of professional development are determined: competent, prolonged, differentiated, personally oriented, rational, mentoring and coaching and others. Models of professional development are diverse in terms of terms, forms of training (distance, full-time, blended learning), content, forms of teacher support, institution choice, choice of forms of training (webinar, pieces of training, seminars). Teachers work at different levels of professional development (professionalization, skills, creativity, innovation). Upgrading skills should consider the level of professional development of the teacher, encourage the involvement of innovative teachers as experts and tutors. Most models are integrated with each other. For example, a prolonged, competent model. In Ukraine, diversified, prolonged, personal-oriented and inter-sectoral models of the professional development of teachers.

Abstract:
This study describes the presence of professional skills found in poster session proposals in order to consider the use of poster sessions for developing the skills required by the 2012 Ecuadorian Standards for English teachers, specifically related to the fifth domain professionalism. Thirteen poster session proposals for a national English teacher conference were analyzed to identify professional skills using the International Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) Conference rubric to describe their academic quality, and Halleck and Connor’s Coding Scheme Checklist to describe the TESOL proposal genre characteristics. The results provided evidence of the skills related to the Ecuadorian national standards for English teachers as well as their academic strengths and weaknesses. The poster session can be an effective strategy to help teachers become more proactive and autonomous in growing professionally. This study can be useful for English teachers working to meet the national standards and institutions wanting to explore new strategies to develop and implement the English Teachers’ Standards.

Abstract:
This paper presents the findings of a study into the application process of the professional standards (PS) qualification in Estonia, which is a standard used to identify the level of professionalism of a teacher. The study collected the views of active teachers who have applied for the PS and those of the assessors to understand the shortcomings in the application and the expectations for the application process. The main challenges identified are that teachers lack respective skills to adequately comprehend qualification requirements (unambiguous interpretation of PS) and the lack of evidence-based performance indicators (difficult to prove) and weak self-analysis skills; hence, the teacher needs assistance. The research found that teachers need collaborative support, motivation and constructive feedback on their professional development (PD), both from colleagues and at school and national levels. Based on this research, it can be said that teachers who have gone through the application process have gained greater self-confidence, value themselves as teachers and continue their in-service training.

Abstract:
Innovations in the general education system have significantly changed the content and form of the teacher’s professional activity: pedagogical design has become a dominant feature in its structure. In this regard, there was a contradiction between the need for special training of teachers for the implementation of project activities and the lack of sufficient organizational and methodological conditions for the implementation of such training on the job. The purpose of this article is to justify the possibility of improving the skills of pedagogical design in the conditions of the implementation of the teacher growth system at the municipal level. In the course of theoretical analysis, the author substantiates the role and place of design in the structure of professional pedagogical activity. Based on the theoretical results obtained, the idea of building a subject-oriented process of teacher training, integrated with their immediate professional activity, is put forward. The description of the pedagogical experiment on testing the municipal system of teacher growth and the selected pedagogical conditions for the development of design skills of teachers is given. The results of the experimental work confirmed the hypothesis that the effectiveness of the process of improving teachers’ design skills is achieved by integrating the process of advanced training in labor activity, using a set of special forms and training methods (cases, design sessions, business games, trainings, master classes, tutoring programs, etc.), use of the principles of subject-oriented learning.

Abstract:
The important pre-experimental stage of the research is the difference among the concepts of “professional training”, “professional competence”, “professional preparedness”, “professional (personal) maturity” and “professional skill” in the projection on characteristics of the student's personality, and also the identification of psychological, sociometric and personal data of pupils who will later correct the course of the educational experiment in reference groups. The purpose is to provide theoretical and methodological prove of the current state of pedagogical skills development of future physical education teachers in the process of professional training. The sociological survey, conducted among students and teachers of Mykhailo Kotsyubynskyi Vinnytsia State Pedagogical University for the key question “Which teacher have pedagogical skills?”, made it possible to distinguish several dominants that are expressed by such concepts: knowledge, skills, abilities, experience, extraordinary, approach, personality, development and own example. However, the results of the recording stage of the experiment showed a low level of pedagogical skills development of a future physical education teacher. A number of shortcomings were identified that complicates the pedagogical skills development of a future physical education teacher, including a slight connection between theory and practice; theoretical training of students isn’t interactive; traditional methods of study at HEI; a limited number of manuals and methodological recommendations for highlighting the importance of developing the pedagogical skills of a future physical education teacher and its impact on professional activities; a small number of tasks aimed at developing this personal characteristic. This causes the need to determine and substantiate the pedagogical conditions for the pedagogical skills development of a future physical education teacher, the development of a model.

In the modern globalizing world, the communicative culture of the teacher’s personality is becoming increasingly important, since communication is the main means of pedagogical activity. Without studying the essence and significance of the development of the communicative culture of teachers, the development of education is impossible. Responsible for the spiritual and of course the intellectual development of the young generation are pedagogical staff, i.e. at all levels of the country's vocational education system, the professional teaching staff of the education system should train high-class professionals of their generation. The communicative culture of the teacher includes the possession of communicative skills and communication skills that need to be formed in students - future teachers, using active and interactive teaching methods.

This article offers a review of 25 empirical studies to identify the areas and findings of professional development initiatives for in-service English teachers in Colombia. The reviewed studies suggest that language teacher professional development has focused on six major areas: language proficiency, research skills and reflective practice, teachers’ beliefs and identities, an integrated approach to teacher professional development, pedagogical skills and teaching approaches, and emerging technologies. Results suggest that there is a need to move from traditional master-apprentice, content-oriented, teacher-centered models of professional development towards initiatives that allow teachers to critically analyze their particular context and needs, and devise their own local alternatives so that they can become more active agents of their own process of change. Issues that constitute possible alternatives for future research in the professional development of English language teachers are discussed.

Abstract:
Teachers are the key in improving the quality of education. They are in a very strategic position for education reformation oriented in quality achievement. The role of teachers is even more strategic in schooling context. Teachers play a major role in the development of education, particularly formal education in schools. Teachers also determine the success of students, especially in learning process. Teachers play the main role in the learning process. The learning process is a process with a course of conduct between teachers and students who are in a reciprocal relationship that takes place in an educational situation in order to achieve certain goals. Any efforts made to improve the quality of education would be meaningless without professional teachers. Therefore, any efforts to reorganize and improve the quality of education must involve teacher empowerment. Professionalism characterized by autonomy, adequate expertise, teachers’ high commitment of their tasks and their passion to improve their skills continuously are the indicators of the teacher’s professionalism. Teacher professional development to improve the professionalism standard related to skills; includes mastery of teaching materials and learning methodologies as well as professional attitude regarding motivation and commitment of teachers in performing their duties, needs to be improved to create synergy towards quality of education.

Abstract:
Science teacher knowledge and skills have been thoroughly discussed by researchers; however, less is known about how teachers themselves conceptualise their professional qualities. We asked first and final-year pre-service science teachers and in-service physics teachers to describe the knowledge and skills needed to be a good science/physics teacher. Data was collected through a one-item questionnaire, followed by interviews. Using thematic coding with inductively defined codes as well as codes derived from theoretical perspectives on teacher knowledge and skills (notably the Refined Consensus Model of PCK), we found that all respondent groups emphasised science content knowledge as important. In-service teachers also often described external factors such as working conditions. First-year pre-service teachers put more emphasis on pedagogical skills and personality traits, whereas final-year pre-service teachers expressed a more integrated view of science teacher knowledge and skills. Further, we discuss the need for teacher education to focus on integrating science content knowledge and pedagogical knowledge through articulating aspects of PCK, and on giving pre- and in-service teachers arenas for professional development and for research-based discussions of teaching and learning.

Abstract:
Professional development is an integral aspect of a teacher’s professional life. Effective professional development activities enable teachers, among others, to update and enhance their pedagogical knowledge and skills, and allow teachers to be creative and critical in their teaching approach. But the question is, to what extent the professional development activities and programmes satisfy the teachers’ needs? This nationwide study aims to determine and identify the level of the Malaysian English language teachers’ level of satisfaction of their professional development – whether English language teachers are satisfied with the professional development experiences and opportunities that are provided by the Ministry of Education and the respective State Education Departments. Schools were randomly chosen and the questionnaires were mailed to the headmasters and principals of the schools to be distributed to all English teachers. A total of 2586 (1038 secondary teachers and 1548 primary teachers) questionnaires were received from teachers all over Malaysia. This paper will highlight and discuss the main findings, and provide some critical implications and suggestions in terms of teacher education and planning and implementation of future professional development activities.

Abstract For a teacher to be professionally successful, they should possess relevant competencies. A history and legal studies teacher’s competency as an integrated entity has not been the subject of scientific researches yet. The paper aims to analyze legal documents as well as scientific literature, generalize and systematize the approaches to understanding the essence and structure of teacher’s professional competency. It is considered as a set of specific competencies; a component of teacher’s competency; one of its two main competencies. These approaches do not contribute to understanding teacher’s competency as a holistic integrated formation; competencies, which are singled out along with teacher’s professional competency and should be considered as its organic components. The structure of teacher’s competency based on the positions of functional approach is described as a set of components, namely, knowledge of psychology and pedagogy, abilities, skills, emotions, internal motivation, attitudes, moral and ethical values, experience; gnostic, constructive, organizational, communicative, analytical, creative, predictive, projective, informational, pedagogical skills, etc. The teacher’s competency is denoted by different terms. Its essence is fully revealed by the term “professional and pedagogical competency”, which allows describing teacher’s competency as a holistic personal entity belonging to a particular professional teacher, comprehensively characterizing it and serves as a means of achieving pedagogical goals and solving pedagogical tasks, a criterion for a professional teacher’s development. Despite certain differences in understanding the essence and the vision of teacher’s competency structure, almost all researchers of this problem agree on the fact that the factors of developing a highly competent teacher are high-quality pedagogical education, professional training and lifelong professional development. Rather perspective are further studies on specification of the volume and the content of knowledge, skills and abilities, the values of history and legal studies teachers as components of their competency, as well as experimental confirmation of relevant theoretical positions.

Abstract:
Microteaching is one of the most recent innovations in teacher training program which is used as a professional developmental tool in pre-service or in-service teacher training programs. Microteaching helps teachers to better understand the processes of teaching and learning and provides the opportunity to learn teaching skills, to study their own teaching, and to study the teaching of others. Microteaching is an organized, scaled-down teacher training program where a trainee teacher plans a short lesson, teaches it to a reduced group of students (Three to ten) in a 5 to 20 minute lesson, and then reflects on their teaching afterwards. The lesson is video recorded for either individual or peer review. The trainee teacher’s micro-lesson is reviewed, discussed, analyzed, and evaluated to give a feedback. Based on this feedback, the trainee teacher re-teaches the micro-lesson, incorporating those points raised during the discussion and analysis. The main objective of this article is to address and emphasize that microteaching has the potential to improve the teachers’ pedagogic skills, competencies, self-confidence, beliefs, and attitudes with minimum available facilities and to provide students with valuable teaching experiences and make them aware of the benefits and relationships between theory and practice.

Abstract:
Under the context of growing demand for teachers’ professional training, the issues of the formation and improvement of their pedagogical mastery become of current interest. A teacher who wants to develop his/her pedagogical skills shall constantly learn to apply pedagogical methods in his/her work. After all, the professional competence of a teacher directly depends on the possession of professional technique. The purpose of this work is to clarify the concept of “pedagogical technique” and determine its place and role in improvement of teacher’s professional mastery. In this regard, methods of analysis, synthesis, comparison, generalization, and clarification were used. The narrative of the importance of clarifying the definition of the term is presented for defense and the version proposed is as follows: “Pedagogical technique is an important component within the structure of pedagogical skills, their forms, practical manifestation, through which a high level of pedagogical professionalism can be formed and developed”. The knowledge of structure of pedagogical methods and formation of appropriate behavioral skills increase the teacher’s professionalism. Therefore, in teacher’s activities, pedagogical technique steps forward as a system of social and pedagogical support of the educational process, which performs a number of functions in teaching and educational work.

Abstract:
Digital illiteracy is one of the great challenges of education. In our information society, an adequate level of digital proficiency is an important requirement and teachers’ skills, personality, competence and professional experience are important factors in determining the efficiency of the teaching-learning process. This research has two goals. First, we tried to find out what characteristics a “good” and a “bad” teacher would have based on the trainee teachers’ own experience as secondary school students. We also wanted to know what they think about the social roles of teachers; about the importance of native language in education; what expectations they have regarding the computer skills and competences of secondary school teachers; and what experience they have regarding the use of ICT equipment in the education process. The answers to the open questions about teachers were grouped into four categories: professional expectations, preparedness, teaching skills, personality traits and behaviour. We developed four statistically relevant factors to determine the level of teachers’ computer skills and we used a set of questions containing 10 items to examine the experience of trainee teachers regarding the use of ICT in education. Our study reveals the situation of Hungarian vocational training from Romania, which is a key factor for high-quality teacher training.

Abstract:
A great deal of research is done on teacher training and teacher education worldwide, but a few studies appeared on teacher’s professional discerning and particularly on teachers’ critical thinking skills. Critical thinking, with regard to EFL teachers, has not been taken into consideration early on. This study explores the relationship between EFL teacher’s professional discerning and their critical thinking in Pakistani context. A quantitative paradigm has been adopted to find out if there is any relationship between EFL teachers’ professional discerning and their critical thinking. The participants consisted of 93 EFL teachers teaching English at the university level in Pakistan. The researcher utilized a professional discerning (identity) research tool taken from Sheybani and Miri (2019) and a derived Critical Thinking Inventory (DCT) designed by the researcher to collect data. To analyze the relationship between EFL teachers’s professional discerning and their critical thinking ability, the data were analyzed by R (statistical program). The results of correlation analysis unfolded that the sub-constructs of professional discerning questionnaire tools are predicted by critical thinking. A highly positive and statistically significant correlation was observed in the analysis. The study highlights the significance and important role of critical thinking in shaping EFL teachers’ professional discerning, particularly in their teaching context. The study proves the inventive conduct of EFL teachers in the present era of knowledge and learning. The study will positively contribute to language teaching and learning, and it would open up new vistas for EFL teachers, syllabus designers, and academia.
