Intellectual culture of preschool educator in the context of innovative transformations

Abstract

The article reflects the theoretical and methodological foundations of the formation of the intellectual culture of a preschool educator in the context of the transformational processes of modern education. It is emphasised that intellectual culture is an important factor in the development of innovative thinking, professional self-development, and creative activity of a teacher. Contradictions between the requirements for innovative activity of educators and insufficient preparation for its implementation in modern conditions are revealed. It is noted that the formation of intellectual culture requires the intellectualisation of professional training and the development of analytical, prognostic and reflective thinking.
