Summary
Установки современной молодежи на инновационную деятельность: по материалам социологических исследований. Автор работы проводит социологическое исследование, целью которого является изучение установок и вовлеченности молодых людей Ивановской области в инновационную деятельность. Проведенное исследование показало, что лишь половина молодежи региона хотела бы принять участие в инновационной деятельности. При этом за последние три года в той или иной форме инновационной деятельности принимали участие около 44 % молодых людей. Что инновационные практики в наибольшей степени характерны для старшеклассников и студенческой молодежи. Результаты проведенного автором социологического исследования свидетельствуют о разной степени готовности молодежи к инновационной деятельности. Учащаяся молодежь в большей степени, чем молодые люди старшего возраста, заинтересована в инновационных практиках, что обусловлено ее вовлеченностью в данные процессы посредством применения новых образовательных технологий.
