Abstract
The article substantiates the role of medical and biological disciplines in the preparation of future special educators to work with children with special educational needs in general and special education institutions and inclusive resource centers. During the study of medical and biological disciplines (an anatomy, a physiology and human pathology, the basis of genetics, a neuropathology, a psychopathology, the clinic of intellectual disorders), the future specialist receives not only the sum of professional and pedagogical knowledge, but also has the opportunity to master key competencies, without which the professional activity of a special teacher is simply impossible. First of all, these competencies should be aimed at forming the ability of future specialists for empathy and social reflection. It is noted that medical and biological knowledge and skills, in addition to the formation of professional competence in working with persons with SEN, will allow to master the basics of self-regulation in order to maintain self-control in situations with high emotional load and optimal exit from stressful situations, that is, will contribute to their own health care. The author notes that the knowledge of anatomical, physiological and mental characteristics of children with SEN enables students in the future in their professional activities to possess the following skills: to determine diagnostic and prognostic indicators of psychophysical development in the case of normotypical development and pathology; to evaluate and distinguish individual and personal characteristics of childrenʼs behavior; to identify and clarify the individual intellectual characteristics of children in order to determine an individual educational trajectory; to determine the corrective and developmental technologies for working with children with special needs; to organize their professional activities taking into account modern methods of diagnosis, correction and rehabilitation of children with SEN; to ensure the quality of their education using modern educational technologies.
