| Summary: | The paper presents and analyses the results of the research dealing with the
pedagogical concept - as a type of pedagogical beliefs - related to the way
in which students, pre-service teachers, interpret the educational process
that they learn about during their studies and observe, analyse and create
during their practice. The aim of the conducted research was to determine the
intensity of the dimensions of students’ pedagogical concept with respect to
gender, the type of finished secondary school and the year of studies.
Research participants were 480 students of the Teacher Education Faculty of
the University of Belgrade. There were no significant differences in the
intensity of the dimensions of the pedagogical concept between students of
different genders or with respect to the type of finished secondary school.
The results have indicated that the intensity of the child-centred dimension
of the pedagogical concept is significantly different at the beginning and at
the end of studies, and that it declines, but the decline is not linear. It
has been shown that child-centred pedagogical beliefs are more intensive in
the students at the beginning of studies than in the students of the final
year of studies. The concluding part provides the suggestions related to the
way in which theoretical contents and the modalities of teaching methods at
teacher education faculties might actively support the processes of
construction and reconstruction of students’ pedagogical concept. [Projekat
