Abstract

The article deals with the problem of formation of the forecasting competence of a modern teacher. The purpose of the article is to justify the value of educational and methodological literature as a means of forming the forecasting competence of a modern teacher. The results of the analysis of scientific literature on the research problem have made it possible to clarify the definition of the concept and to disclose the structure of the teacher`s forecasting competence, namely: value-motivational (values, motives, goals that prompt for forecasting activity, is its value-motivational core), cognitive (knowledge about theory and practice of prognostic activity in the system of general secondary education), operational activity component (skills and abilities, practical experience of forecasting activity in the system of general secondary education). The elements of these components should be reflected in the structure of educational and methodical publications, which will become the means of forming the forecasting competence of a modern teacher. The study made it possible to determine the peculiarities of the use of educational and methodical literature in the process of formation of the teacher's forecasting competence in the conditions of obtaining a formal (rational distribution of educational materials, through which this competence will be formed, according to different academic disciplines, years of study, that is, different textbooks and manuals, the possibility of development a special course on educational-pedagogical forecasting (hence the corresponding textbook or manual): the leading role of educational literature; the need to create an appropriate literature for teachers), non-formal (appropriate combination of a textbook on the theory and practice of forecasting activity in the system of general secondary education with educational materials on educationalpedagogical forecasting in textbooks and manuals) or informal education (the need to develop a self-learning manual on the theory and practice of forecasting activity) Prospects for further research on this problem are related to the development of educational technology of formation of the forecasting competence of teachers; designing, publishing and distributing textbooks and manuals necessary for its realization.
