Interactive methods of social and pedagogical work and the efficiency of their use in the community service centers for families, children and youth activity
In the modern society, the children’s upbringing and development is considered to replace traditional “cumulative” education with “problem-defining” training, as under such conditions, pupils are engaged in real life problems, being able to independently analyse and solve life issues and not only get theoretical information from a teacher. From the point of social work as a science, such practice is a great prospect for the younger generation future life, as it forms the autonomy and adequate self-actualization of an individual in the society from the school years.
Acting on their own, applying their knowledge and skills in practice, pupils obtain some social experience, the motivation to plan their lives and an understanding of responsibility for personal well-being appear. In the process of an interactive learning, pupils and teacher are in the mode of conversation, dialogue with each other, and they are equal. Such an interaction implies the one participant dominance in the educational process over another, one point over another.
In the context of problem-based education, learning will be more successful if students formulate the tasks independently and, based on their own life experience, fulfil them. Interactive methods create comfortable conditions for learning, each participant is able to believe in his/her own strength, make own individual contribution to the common cause and develop own abilities. There is an opportunity to exchange knowledge, ideas, and activity ways. Due to the effectiveness of problem-solving education, the skills of cooperation and interaction, a sense of teamwork and self-confidence are formed
