Abstract

The article examines the development of logical thinking of future specialists in the process of professional self-improvement. The development of logical thinking of the future specialist is an important pedagogical problem. One of the leading means of developing the logical thinking of a future specialist is the co-creation of a teacher and a student. Modern Ukrainian educational institutions need a specialist who performs his duties professionally and accumulates multifaceted qualities of a creative personality. A teacher who is called to carry out the educational process professionally requires not only a deep and comprehensive knowledge of the theoretical provisions of pedagogy, but also extensive practical training, flexibility of logical thinking, and the ability to creatively solve the tasks of educational activity, which ultimately determines the level of his professionalism.
