PERSONALITY-ORIENTATION AS A MARKER OF INNOVATION IN THE EDUCATIONAL FIELD

The educational realities of the 21st century are changing significantly under the influence of information technologies, the use of Internet resources and virtual practices in the educational process, the introduction of new standards of knowledge transfer. As a result, a polyspace of communication appears, where a confident and comfortable person who has broken the shackles of the Modern worldview, has abandoned the narratives and limitations of the Modern. One can observe a specific anthropo-axiological turn in education, which is a sign of the increasing role of the subjective factor. This necessitates qualitative changes in the educational process, the widespread use of innovative technologies and the latest methodological approaches, the attraction of information technologies capable of providing training for highly qualified specialists, which will ensure the prosperity and well-being of the country. However, only the changes in the educational process are not enough, since there is a need to form a new image of educator, who is aware of the cognitive, axiological, praxeological needs of the generation born in the age of globalization, postmodernism and total consumption, and capable of perceiving significant amounts of information, but requires the skills for its analysis. That is why the search-and-problematic thinking style, the ability to analyze information and to highlight the main point of interest are of great importance. The main guideline of modern education is the intellectual development of a person capable of productive cognitive activity, constant self-improvement, and self- education. Therefore, methods of creative learning, acquisition, and production of knowledge, the ability to formulate and solve problems, and independently search for necessary information in finding the answer to the problems posed by the teacher or the students themselves become especially relevant and required.
