Primary level students professional expectation

Professional development of a man in a social content is like a process that lasts all his life. There are tasks that are solved in a primary level. That is why pupils of this level are considered to be as a lower professional orientation purposive group. Pupils of this educational level project themselves in a distance perspective and they have professional expectations. A professional expectation is a very important parameter of a social maturity. This is a part of social expectation of a person, a hopeful expectancy of self-realization in a distant perspective. People hope to perform actions that help to reach a goal (a desired occupation). The content of professional expectation depends on mentality, experience and politeness. They are inspired by a social environment, which surrounds a pupil, their parents’ and close people’s profession, mass and media, and especially TV that pays a special attention to politicians, businesspersons, stars of art and sport. The facts of the empirical research confirm basic differences of professional expectation between children of a village and a city, between boys and girls. However, there were no differences between children of a full and partial family. Mostly primary pupils are going to be teachers, doctors, police officers, singers, builders, shop assistants, drivers, hairdressers, basketball players, mechanics, football players, managers and farmers. The facts of the research revealed that professional expectations of primary pupils depend on inward actions. There are the main actions: a natural power of a child, early abilities that belong to a particular preserve, the strength of a character. There are social communities, a social level of a society in professional expectations. Expectations testify that pupils try to find a better life and they seek to improve the results of their studies. A person, who has an expectation, believes to perform actions successfully in order to seek their goal. This expectation can be called a motive. It is very important to correct professional expectations in a teaching process, as there is the gap between pupils’ interests and realization opportunities. There are relations of interchangeability that depend on pupils’ social sense content. Pedagogical correction is successful when the basic content of a social disposition is not destroyed immediately. Such dispositions awake pupils’ interests and activate the general upbringing of abilities because of supplementary motivational stimulus that inspire pupils to seek for a better result of their studies.Švietimo akademijaVytauto Didžiojo universiteta
