Abstract

The current task of teacher education is to form an integrated model aimed at modernizing the content of teacher education in the light of digital changes and social dynamics. The focus is on the problem of fragmented implementation of technologies, which limits the effectiveness of teacher training and complicates the adaptation of educational programs to new professional requirements. The methodology of our study is based on a combination of structural analysis, comparative approach and modeling of educational processes. The decomposition of functional elements of learning was applied, which made it possible to identify the relationships between technological, didactic and social components. The analytical part involved evaluating the effectiveness of various educational models using quantitative indicators. The results show that improving the quality of teacher training is associated with the transition to adaptive learning models, which consider individual educational trajectories and provide feedback based on analytical data.
