Viktoriya Gontarenko, director of the municipal institution "Center for Professional Development of Pedagogical Workers" of the Kostiantyniv City Council, on behalf of the creative group of teachers of foreign languages (Marina Khoruzhevska, Kostiantynivskyi institution of general secondary education I-III degrees No. 3; Maryny Lamash, Kostyantynivskyi institution of general secondary education I- ІІІ degrees No. 6; Anna Nikytska, Kostyantynivskyi institution of general secondary education No. 13; Olga Vasilitseva, Novodmitrivsky Lyceum of the Kostyantynivska city council), who joined the process of discussing the content of the educational program, expressed considerations regarding the expediency of using the term "specialist with a high level of digital competence" in the content of the program in accordance with the Conceptual and Reference Framework of Digital Competence of Pedagogical and Scientific Pedagogical Workers https://osvita.diia.gov.ua/uploads/0/2629-frame_pedagogical.pdf (year 2021)).
Viktoriya Gontarenko noted that among the mandatory components of the curriculum of the educational program, it is advisable to include the discipline "Pedagogy of inclusive education", which is currently included in the list of disciplines of free choice of higher education applicants, instead she advised to remove the discipline from the list of mandatory components of the curriculum of the educational program "Programming languages and the possibilities of their application in teaching activities", since the program provides students with the mastery of digital resources necessary for the digitization of the educational process, and the specified discipline, according to fellow teachers of general secondary education institutions, is mostly aimed at students of IT specialties.
Serhiy Hryshko, a teacher of the higher category of English at the Bakhmut educational complex "General education school of I-III degrees No. 11 - multidisciplinary lyceum" of the Bakhmut city council of the Donetsk region, advised for the future to think about reducing the number of hours allocated to teaching foreign literature and philosophy, due to which it seems possible to increase the amount of hours for students to study English-language disciplines.
Stakeholders emphasized that the expressed considerations should be perceived as proposals, and the content of the educational program fully provides for high-quality professional training of a modern teacher of English language and foreign literature of a modern school with a high level of digital competence, who will certainly be in demand and competitive in the labor market.
All considerations and proposals of stakeholders will be taken into account in the systematic process of modernization of the educational program.
We sincerely thank our colleagues for their cooperation!
