Abstract
The leading trend in the 21st century is an innovative approach in science, education, and culture, manifested in various spheres of human activity – especially those related to the creative transformation and improvement of the world. Thus, the study of the development and functioning of heuristic thinking of designers, associated with innovative ideas and concepts of material culture, is becoming increasingly relevant. The emergence of such professions as creative state moderator or mental fitness coach has been predicted. The purpose of the study is to identify pedagogical technologies aimed at the formation of innovative thinking necessary for a designer's project activity. Designers should be trained based on innovative projects, brainstorming methods, problem-based tasks, and cases, ensuring that students master the system of values, meanings, and models of innovative creative activity. Only then will design projects launch the process of deliberate change that introduces qualitative changes into the environment. Innovative project thinking is a universal competence of designers, necessary for successful professional activities in the modern world in its various forms and types. Therefore, its formation is one of the most important pedagogical problems of today. A new aspect of the study is the methodological recommendations on the training of designers in innovative thinking, which includes three stages of this process: creating an object, assessing the degree of novelty, and mastering in real life. As practice has shown, students form innovative thinking in the classroom if they comprehend innovative projects from the concept to the specific implementation and assessment of the result.
Highlights
The implementation of various design projects is caused by the need for the simultaneous renewal, conservation, and increase of scientific and artistic achievements of culture, as well as the modelling of future environments, since design is “a specific sphere of activity associated with the development of object and spatial environments and aimed at providing results with high aesthetic qualities, optimization and harmonization of their interaction with a person, society, and natural environment” [1]
The project design of new material and spiritual values, objects and technologies of aesthetic transformation of the environment determines the specifics of this field of creativity [8]
Innovative project design can be presented as a stage-by-stage transition from the analysis of a problem task and search for the solution to concept development and implementation of innovation in real life [9]
Summary
The implementation of various design projects is caused by the need for the simultaneous renewal, conservation, and increase of scientific and artistic achievements of culture, as well as the modelling of future environments, since design is “a specific sphere of activity associated with the development of object and spatial environments and aimed at providing results with high aesthetic qualities, optimization and harmonization of their interaction with a person, society, and natural environment” [1]. Creative development and innovation in any sphere of human activity require an innovative approach on the part of scientists or artists, as well as an innovative paradigm, determining the development of science and art and supported at the state level [2]. Innovation “is a feature of modern thinking and suggests manifestation of creativity in a creative act” [3]
