Facilitative Interaction as a Multi-Level Human Activity

Abstract

Тhe purpose of our research is to show facilitative interaction as a multi­level human activity, to show the significant constructive phenomena of facilita-tive interaction as a psychological status of the individual. methods of the research. The following theoretical methods of the research were used to solve the tasks formulated in the article: a categorical method, structural and functional methods, the methods of the analysis, systematization, modeling, generalization. Also, in our research we used empirical methods, such as statement experiment.the results of the research. It was shown, that the concept “facilitation” reflects a conscious and purposeful activity as a phenomenon characteristic, first of all, of a teacher. Thus, we singled out the attributes of facilitation: 1) cogni-tive activity; 2) the subject of the activity; 3) the functions of the subject; 4) the object of the activity; 5) the motives of the activity; 6) the purpose of the activity; 7) functions of the activity; 8) the ways of performing activities; 9) methods of activity implementation (and means relevant for the implementation of these activities); 11) the result of the activity.conclusions. We showed the characteristics of facilitative interaction. We proved, that the Activity was the basis, means and positive condition for the development of the Personality. The Activity is the expedient transformation of the surrounding reality of people. We call activity “a unit of life”, mediated by the process of mental reflection. Also, outside activity there are neither means of the activity, nor signs, nor objects of art; there are no people outside the activity.Therefore, the activity is a purposeful, multi­level human activity. “Pur-poseful” is because “the subject” appears as its goal. “Multi­level” is because it includes into its structure of actions, secondary motivation, determined by the purpose and the tasks of the activity. And this, in turn, ensures the actualization of the main goal­motive of the activity by the individual. And, finally, the opera-tion of the activity differs from the action in that it is not marked by a goal, but by the conditions of the activity in which this goal is explained. It is very necessary to distinguish the actions from the activities and from operations.
