PEDAGOGICAL TOOLS FOR DEVELOPING TEAMWORK SKILLS IN HIGHER EDUCATION STUDENTS

Abstract

The article substantiates the importance of developing teamwork skills in students as a prerequisite for effective collaboration in the professional sphere. An analysis of pedagogical tools aimed at developing and refining these skills is provided, namely, project-based activities, business games, training sessions, and case studies. The technological characteristics of each of these methods are presented. An assessment of the feasibility of applying these technologies to student training at a university is provided (with reference to cadets at a military academy). A qualitative assessment of the experimental data obtained is presented for a group of indicators: communication effectiveness; role and responsibility distribution; conflict reduction; and successful project development. Recommendations are offered for adapting the presented pedagogical tools (methods, forms, technologies) to the educational process. Promising areas of research on this issue have been identified.
