The role of teachers’ creativity in higher education: A systematic literature review and guidance for future research

The article presents a theoretical analysis of socio-psychological aspects of emotional response development in childhood. It considers Russian and foreign authors’ scientific approaches to understanding of the emotional response phenomenological nature, identification of socio-psychological factors and mechanisms determining its emergence, formation and development in the framework of cultural and historical tradition. It covers scientific concepts, theoretical approaches and doctrines that reveal the improvement of emotional response as a process of hierarchical differentiation in ontogenesis, mediation of emotional reactions by social and content areas, progressive development of regulation, control and management mechanisms initiated by maturation, cognitive and psychosocial development and socialization. The article also focuses on theoretical approaches to outlining of periodization patterns of emotional response formation in childhood, regarding the emotional response as a process that ascends from elementary forms of emotional reflection to higher socially determined, consciously regulated and controlled forms of emotional behavior. In the process of the child’s ontogenetic development, these processes turn from externally directed, materialized forms to the level of internal regulation of behavior. Based on the analysis of existing scientific approaches, the article reveals the deficiencies and identifies the prospects for the research in the field under consideration. It states the necessity of the development of universal complex classification and periodization schemes, reflecting ontogenetic features of progressive development, accumulation and complication of psychological new formations in a multicomponent structural and hierarchical organization of emotional response. The article determines theoretical and practical importance in the development of the conditions for psychological support for the child’s emotional response formation and development, implying the introduction of monitoring, forecasting and management technologies for the purposeful formation of the younger generation’s emotionally competent behavior

Social and Psychological Aspects of Emotional Response in Childhood

Nowadays, improvement of the education quality remains a burning issue in the world and, in particular, in Russia. Modern social, economic and cultural transformations have bred new values in education to appear; educational objectives, goals, content and results have been reviewed. Contemporary changes have generated a reasonable request of the society for training a comprehensively developed, cultured and competent person who is given the necessary set of social important competences for various culture-congruent activities; actively interact with society and efficiently adopt social roles. Current trends dictate to look for new approaches and methods in education that actively form personal and social skills and competencies to facilitate a better social adaptation and socialization of every person with understanding of their potential. In this regard, investigation of emotional competence of school students with intellectual disabilities is of special relevance; state and condition of the disorder in many ways define the capacity of sound socialization for this group of children. Goal of our research is to analyze theoretical background, studies and methodological concepts in world and Russian psychology on the problem of regulation of emotional response of school students with intellectual disabilities through shaping emotional competence in their behavior; to pinpoint problems and potential to scrutinize this topic. The scope of the research is the process of emotion regulation of school students with intellectual disabilities through shaping emotional competence, which encompasses abilities to monitor, control and manage their emotional response in social environment. The research found that most scientists although declare the need for special programs to study and correct the emotional responses of intellectually disabled students with a view to their best socialization in modern society, there are still deficits in both the science and the practice of special psychology related to the development and implementation of technologies for monitoring, predicting and managing emotional responses among this group of schoolchildren.

On the problem of relevance to develop emotionally competent behavior in children with intellectual disabilities

The importance of formation and development of creativity of primary school students is recognized by specialists in pedagogy and psychology. At the same time, one of the topical problems is the increase in the number of children with special educational needs. The purpose of the study is to regard the function of the aesthetic and imaginative perception of the world as a constituent of creative competence of primary school students in the context of a potential growth point for a child with specific learning disabilities. The subject of the study is the dynamics of indicators of creative competence (creative imagination, in particular) demonstrated by children as a result of mastering an integrated set of activities aimed to develop creative thinking in primary school students to be able to solve tasks, as well as to form creative competence, to improve self-expression and self-regulation through the use of tools of creative activities and to introduce children to works of culture and art in the conditions of inclusive education. At the stage of the ascertaining experiment, the creative imagination of children participating in the experiment was evaluated according to the methodologies of Dyachenko O. ("Drawing figures") and Kravtsova E. ("Where is its place?"). The general tendency, which is true for the results of the ascertaining experiment with the application of both methods, is the absence of children with a high level of imagination development in the group studied. Integrated lessons aimed to the formation and development of creative imagination in children with developmental delay were carried out for a year and a half, in inclusive groups. In the course of the complex work, the elements of art therapy, logopedic rhythm, psycho-gymnastics, fairy-tale therapy, dance movement therapy and music therapy were used, the means of theatricalization and dramatization were actively applied. According to the results of the ascertaining experiment, it is revealed that the subjects have the ability to overcome the stereotypes formed on the basis of the accumulated experience, which is one of the elements that determine the success of creative activity. As a result of the study, it was discovered that creative imagination regarded as a component of the creative competence of primary school students could be stimulated and improved with the help of a psychological-pedagogical influence during the application of the methodology of integrated lessons of the aesthetic course.
