Description
Summary:The results of the theoretical and empirical study of the value-based reflection as one of the psychological mechanisms of development of social equity in pedagogical interaction are presented in the article. It has been specified that the mechanism of the value-based reflection triggers and precedes the processes in the teacher’s value-based self-consciousness achieving a fair distribution of rewards and penalties for the results of their activities. The value-based reflection occurs on the personal, professional, and social levels. It has been proved that personal reflection helps a teacher to understand himself as a carrier of certain values being the elements of the selfconsciousness; professional reflection is actualized through the analysis by a teacher of his professional qualities, abilities, and potential, a teacher reconsiders the informative parameters of professional self-consciousness; thanks to the social reflection a teacher is able to analyze and reconsider the quality of his attitude to students, following of moral standards during this process. The empirical study of the mechanism of the value-based reflection revealed that mainly experienced teachers with a pedagogical experience of 21 years tended to have it. It provides interaction with students based on the principles of social equity. It has been emphasized that, compared to the younger colleagues, teachers of this category and teachers with the experience of 6 to 20 years tend to have more conscious attitude to their relations with students, analyze adherence to humane principles and moral standards in pedagogical interaction and express the value-based attitude to students and value-based self-conception. It has been discovered that the mechanism of the value-based reflection, among the young teachers who work at school less than 5 years, does not exactly trigger the process of regulation of self-understanding, thus failing to create a ground for the dominating positive background for socially equal actions towards students.
