MODERN APPROACHES TO TRAINING OF PEDAGOGICAL SPECIALISTS OF MUSICAL ARTS

Abstract

The content of approaches to the professional training of teachers of music arts is determined by a number of objective factors due to the realities of modern life. They pose challenges to standardized education systems, stimulating the study and implementation of foreign educational traditions and innovative practices in the domestic space that would adapt the system of national higher education to adequate functioning on a global scale. The purpose of the present investigation is to study modern domestic and global approaches to training of pedagogical specialists in music arts as part of the intensification of globalization processes. As a result, these approaches will stimulate the integration of educational space, and ensure increased dynamics of using information and media teaching tools. Methods of observation, description, complex analysis, functional method, method of comparison, method of system analysis, method of generalization and method of scientific abstraction have been used. The defining feature of modern approaches to training of pedagogical specialists in music arts is the tendency to globalization and integration of educational space. This will further determine the expanded involvement of distance learning methods, informatization of educational space, attitude to lifelong learning and, in general, a conscious and self-motivated attitude towards the process of acquiring knowledge and obtaining the necessary professional skills. Globalization processes of a music teacher in the education intensify the weight of art education and training of a pedagogical specialist of musical arts as a carrier and conductor of world cultural values. However, against this background, we should not forget about music as a source of national education of the younger generations. Therefore, a balance between national and globalization dominants is needed in the methodology of teaching music disciplines in the course of university training of music teachers.
