The study of educational innovations has become
increasingly important in education research as many countries around the world
have embarked on education reforms that aim to change both the goals and
practices in education.
Economic and social achievements of the state, mainly,
are defined by their system of knowledge and level of knowledge of citizens.
The XXI century is a century of world news and development of knowledge as it
provides full development of the state, and plays important role, both in a
qualitative life of citizens, and in the world market as a whole.
Higher education development is closely connected with
preparation of qualified specialists and development of innovative knowledge.
Presently, the main task of higher education
is preparation of specialists of
high level.
For increasing the level of knowledge in higher
educational institutions it is necessary to introduce pedagogical innovations
in process of training and to use all possible organizing, educational and
developing qualities. For this purpose it is necessary to add the education
system maintenance to new problems, which are corresponded to all new
requirements of qualitative knowledge and education.
We have noticed that all these qualities have special
values in use of innovations by preparation of the future experts.
Especially important question of pedagogics of the
higher school is the approach of the student to the future speciality,
preparation of a good expert, development of their creative ability and skills
of knowledge. To prepare such specialists it is necessary to improve formation
process, to form new pedagogical technologies, to introduce new forms and ways
of training. And also it is nessesary to strengthen the rate of educational
process, its activity and informatization.
We are interested in works of the Kazakhstan
scientists who investigate innovative problems:
·Informational development of technologies (D.D.Dzhusubalieva, Å.Î.Zhumataeva,
Æ.À. Karaev,
G.K.Nurgalieva, A.I.Tazhigulova, L.A.Shkutina, M.S.Malibekova and etc.);
·Development of pedagogical innovations (B.A. Abdikarimov, S.A.
Abdimanapov, E.Z.Battalhanov, S.N.Laktionova, Sh.T.Taubaeva and etc.);
·Innovative activity of the teacher (M.Zh.Zhadrina, S.Zh.Praliev, K.Ì.Nagimzhanova and etc.
The special contribution to pedagogics has been
brought as a result of scientific researches of the above-mentioned authors.
The pedagogical innovation positively effect on development of the pupil, its
thinking, ability to represent and express emotions in intellectual activity.
The innovative phenomena in educational branch have started to extend widely in
the late eighties.
Innovations in pedagogical process mean distribution
of new ideas or qualitative improvements in the organisations of process of
training, , methods, forms, the maintenance of education and socialisation. As
criteria of innovations are novelty, productivity, an optimality, and also the
possibility of their practical application.
Well on the way to becoming a society based on
information, we are hearing more and more about the renewal of education and
the challenges we face in transforming the goals and content of the
teaching/learning process. The term 'innovative' is often used when we speak
about new pedagogical methods and creative educators who represent a deviation
from traditional didactics. Attempts to initiate reform in the classroom must
now also incorporate the use of technological resources that have stimulated
the birth of the information society.
Importance of innovation in pedagogics is mentioned in
works of following scientists: M. S, Burgin, V.V. Gorshkov, S.D. Polyakov,
V.I.Zagvjazinsky, M.M.Potashnik, G.P.Schedrovitsky, N.R.Jusufbekova etc.
According to definition, N.G.Osuhova and
V.A.Rahmatshaeva [1], an innovation it is not only novelty, but also it should
be brought its actual concept. It means not only active and positive character
of changes, but also expresses their social necessity.
And M.S.Burgin [2] specifies five kinds of pedagogical
innovations: new, locally absolutely new, conditionally new, standard new and
subjectively new.
Angelovski makes his researches
according to French and Americas scientists' work. We support this author's
view. For example, the author investigated French scientist E.Bransuik in his
work and distinguished three types of innovation:
·Absolutely new activities which earlier were unknown in an education
system.
·Activities which expanded and updated at present and considered to be very
important ones.
·All innovation and experimentation starts small, in the hands of one or
two people who decide to try something new [3].
“For such experimentation to occur
in the first place there has to be autonomy for teachers to control how they
run things — there cannot be interference from a bureaucracy. Centralising
control of the education system is thus obviously not a good idea. But for this
experimentation to take off, if its hypothesis proves to be correct, it needs
to be able to spread to other schools and other teachers." –said scientist
Sh.T. Taubayeva [4].
M.M. Potashnik [5] distinguishes two
types of innovation: the first is introduction of pedagogical methods and
analyze of method; the second is introduction of innovation and interests.
A.O.Muhametzhanova [6] made scheme for pedagogical
innovations (scheme1):
1 example: ·Introduction for pedagogical innovation. ·Discussion of pedagogical innovations at village schools. ·The analysis of ways of the decision of a pedagogical innovation. ·Organization of pedagogical innovations. ·Prediction of solutions. 6. Test (probably can

2 example: ·Introduction for pedagogical innovation (first information) ·To be interested in pedagogical innovations. Looking for new
bibliography, new modes and new ideas. ·Estimation and resolution of pedagogical innovations at village
schools. ·Test (probably can not to be accepted) |
Scheme 1 –Ways of development in
pedagogical innovations at village schools. As a result of author's work we
came to conclusion that such changings at present lead to innovations. Although
studies that showcase innovative uses of new technologies are essential, more
attention should be given as to how teachers' conceptualizations of teaching
and broader contextual factors underpin the particular shape such courses or
programs may take. Merely focusing on the results of innovation perpetuates the
myth of computers as tools capable in and of themselves of effecting change. In
order to more fully appreciate the complexity of innovation in school contexts,
greater attention needs to be paid to the sociopolitical dimensions of change
and agency, in particular, to the way in which individuals at the local level
may utilize the possibilities and constraints of their milieu to effect change.
Across the world, information
technology is dramatically altering the way students; faculty and staff learn
and work. Internet-ready phones, handheld computers, digital cameras are
revolutionizing the university life. As the demand for technology continues to
rise, colleges and universities are moving all sorts of student services, from
laundry monitoring to snack delivery online.
From the above, we can make out that
the Information and communication technology has made many innovations in the
field of teaching and also made a drastic change from the old paradigm of
teaching and learning. In the new paradigm of learning, the role of student is
more important than teachers. The concepts of paperless and penless classroom
are emerging as an alternative to the old teaching learning method. Nowadays
there is democratization of knowledge an the role of the teacher is changing to
that of facilitator. We need to have interactive teaching and this changing
role of education is inevitable with the introduction of multimedia technology
and the spawning of a technologically-savvy generation of youths. The analysis
reveals some of the suggestions that the teaching community can practice in the
classrooms. Ultimately the teaching people are satisfied when he could reach
the students community with his ideas and views. So, teaching depends upon
successful mode of communication and Innovation though we mean the changes that
we propose to be included in our medium of communication or even inclusion of
some other elements in communicating information.
The researchers recommend that the
teaching would be highly effective if the teacher start to use the recent multimedia
technologies like usage of computers extensively or some modifications in the
conventional mode of teaching. The use of computers may be very well practiced
in the environment where the use of such technology is highly possible, but
there must be some sort of innovation which can also be practiced in an
environment where such use of technology is on its way to growth.
The researchers believe that the core objective of
teaching is passing on the information or knowledge to the minds of the
students. Any method using computers or modifying the existing conventional
chalk-talk method are innovative if they ultimately serve the attainment of
core objective of teaching.
At the end following conclusions can be outlined. The
application of interactive methods of education in higher schools can be viewed
as an aspect of pedagogical innovation in the professional training of
pedagogical staff. There is a directed relation between innovation of
professional training of future teachers and the quality of their pedagogical
and managing activity in pedagogical practice. The illustrated interactive
methods andeducational techniques are appropriate to be applied in higher
education. Therefore they need to be conformed to the determined educational
content and the age of the students so that they can make the best use of them.
