Gender Competence as the Most Important Component of the Teacher's Professionalism

In the modern education the attention is paid to the teacher's development and self- development of the identity, the teacher, who can be flexibly guided in the difficult social circumstances, and is professional work in the conditions of the reformed educational organization. In this regard is defined the model of development of the teacher's professional competence. The teacher has to understand the social role and functions in modern society; to aspire to the high level in development of professionalism when mastering psychology and pedagogical knowledge; to own personal qualities: insistence, pedagogical advantage, competence, professional responsibility. When forming the teacher's professional pedagogical competence it is necessary to pay attention to gender aspect. The gender perspective is one of those subjects which are interesting to modern society. Gender distinctions should be considered in educational process both in relation to trainees, and in relation to teachers. Men and woman train differently and there are essential gender distinctions in their behavioral and communicative aspects, in the solutions of many pedagogical problems and in styles of the teachers' professional activity. Our article is devoted to the analysis of this problem, which is urged not only to designate this problem, but also to develop specific conditions on its decision. DOI: 10.5901/mjss.2015.v6n3s7p9
