Production literacy future technology teachers

Abstract

The problem of professional self-determination of students after graduating from a general secondary education institution in Ukraine is characterized. The essence of the inefficiency of the polytechnic approach and the generally accepted content of technical and technological literacy of future technology teachers regarding professional self-determination is revealed. The concept of "workplace" is proposed as the smallest element of schoolchildren's production literacy. It is proposed to form production literacy on the basis of educational material on the organization of the production process in the factory shop and the use of a predominantly figurative component of technical thinking.
