Development of artistic and imaginative thinking of the future choreography teacher in the process of professional training

Abstract

ABSTRACT The relevance of the subject matter is conditioned by the fact that an important task of professional training of future specialists in the field of choreography is the development of artistic and imaginative thinking. The purpose of the study is to consider the structural components of artistic and imaginative thinking and analyse the features of the development of artistic and imaginative thinking of future choreography teachers in the process of professional training. The basis of the methodological approach in this research work is a qualitative combination of theoretical research methods, in particular analysis, synthesis, interpretation, generalisation and abstraction used to determine theoretical approaches to explaining the concept of artistic and imaginative thinking and its structural components. The results that were obtained in the framework of this study are the substantiation of various approaches to the definition of the concept of artistic and imaginative thinking, the structural components of imaginative thinking, identification of features of its development during the professional training of future choreography teachers, and the development of a special methodology aimed at the development of artistic and imaginative thinking.
