Upbringing of Student Teachers in Extracurricular Activities in the Context of Distance Learning

Abstract

Introduction of distance technologies is necessary in the professional training of students, despite various assessments of its effectiveness. The purpose of the study is to develop the students’ upbringing system in a distance format and experimentally prove its impact on the main directions of future teachers’ upbringing, in comparison with off-line extracurricular activities. 156 undergraduate students took part in the experiment. Experimental research is the author’s paradigm for the formation of youth upbringing in extracurricular activities, which includes six synergistically interrelated areas. The students’ upbringing system developed in the study was tested in two formats of implementation: in off-line format at the first stage of the study and in distance format at the second stage. The statistical data obtained confirm the effectiveness of extracurricular activities for the formation of the future teachers’ upbringing only in off-line format. The introduction of distance technologies in the implementation of upbringing extracurricular activities does not have a positive effect on students, but in some areas has an opposite negative effect. The practical significance of the study is determined by the introduction of a self-analysis and monitoring system into the educational process through the use of Facebook and VKontakte social networks.
