Detailed description
Introduction
The project method is not fundamentally new in world pedagogy. It arose back in the 20s of the twentieth century in the USA. It was also called the method of problems and was associated with the ideas of the humanistic trend in philosophy and education, developed by the American philosopher and teacher J. Dewey, as well as his student W.-H. Kilpatrick. J. Dewey proposed building learning on an active basis, through the expedient activity of the student, in accordance with his personal interest in this particular knowledge. It was extremely important to show children their personal interest in the acquired knowledge, which can and should be useful to them in life. It is important here that the problem is taken from real life, is familiar and meaningful to the child. The teacher can suggest new sources of information, or can simply direct the students’ thoughts in the right direction. But as a result, they must independently and jointly solve the problem.
In the modern understanding, project activity is a way to achieve a didactic goal through a detailed development of a problem, which should result in a very real practical result, formalized in one way or another.
The goals of project activities are as follows: education of people capable of being independent in thinking and acting; development of communication and research skills, the ability to work with information, formulate problems and find ways to solve them; development of critical thinking among students.
Basic requirements for using the project method:
1. The presence of a problem (task) that is significant in research and creative terms, requiring integrated knowledge.
2. Practical, theoretical significance of the expected results.
3. Independent (individual, group) activities of students.
4. Structuring the content of the project.
5. Use of research methods.
These requirements must permeate all stages of project activities:
1) presentation of the project topic;
2) formulating the theme of the project;
3) work planning;
4) implementation of the project;
5) presentation of the project;
6) project evaluation.

Getting ready to choose a profession, presentation for a social studies lesson (6th grade)
Slide 2
Only when a profession is to one’s liking, when a person has an interest in the work he does, when he is in love with his work, only then can he draw joy from his work.” N.K. Krupskaya
Slide 3
This is a type of human labor activity that requires a certain level of knowledge, special skills, human training and at the same time serves as a source of income.
Slide 4
There are more than 50 thousand professions in the world. How to find yours among them? How many of them do we more or less imagine? What to focus on? To the question: “What do you want to become after school?” — high school students cannot always answer. Meanwhile, the problem of choosing a profession is very serious. Especially today, when our society has entered into market relations. A person is increasingly required to have high professionalism and a willingness to quickly adapt to new phenomena in social and economic life. The intensity of work increases sharply, requiring increased endurance.
Slide 5
Man is nature. Man is technology. Man-man. Man is a sign system. Man is an artistic image.
Slide 6
This type unites professions whose representatives deal with objects, phenomena and processes of living and inanimate nature (veterinarian, agronomist, hydrologist, sheep farmer, machine operator, tractor driver). They are characterized by a common subject of labor - animals and plants, soil and air - nature.
Slide 7
These could be pilots, drivers, sailors, electricians, mechanics, etc., using technical devices.
Slide 8
Here, for a specialist, the subject of work is another person, and a characteristic feature of the activity is the need to influence other people. This type of profession includes teacher, doctor, journalist and salesperson.
Slide 9
People who choose this type of professional activity must be able to operate with abstract concepts and have a broad outlook. These are accountants, scientists, computer operators, people working in laboratories and research centers.
Slide 10
People of this type are distinguished by the presence of vivid imaginative thinking, artistic imagination, and talent.
Slide 11
Position of older family members There are elders who are directly responsible for how your life turns out. This concern also extends to the question of your future profession. Position of comrades, girlfriends Friendships at your age are already very strong and can greatly influence the choice of profession. We can only give general advice: the correct decision will be one that suits your interests and coincides with the interests of the society in which you live. Position of teachers, school educators Observing the behavior, academic and extracurricular activities of students, an experienced teacher knows a lot about you that is hidden from unprofessional eyes and even from you. Personal professional plans In this case, a plan refers to your ideas about the stages of mastering a profession.
Slide 12
Abilities The uniqueness of one’s abilities must be judged not only by academic success, but also by achievements in a wide variety of activities. Level of aspirations for public recognition When planning your career path, it is very important to take care of the realism of your aspirations. Awareness It is important to ensure that the information you acquire about a particular profession does not turn out to be distorted, incomplete, or one-sided. Tendencies Tendencies are manifested in favorite activities, on which most of the free time is spent. These are interests supported by certain abilities.
Slide 13
It is necessary to learn not only about the bright side of the profession, but also about the shadow. A doctor is not only a snow-white coat, leaving the operating room to meet grateful relatives. The worn-out shoes of a therapist from dozens of daily calls are also medical care. When you choose a profession, you choose a lifestyle. The fate of an actor, athlete, builder is inseparable from travel. One person cannot stand monotony. The other does not tolerate fuss and constant change. All this must be taken into account. Make it a rule: dream big, but be happy with little for now. “Moscow was not built right away.” It is pointless to immediately apply for the position of plant director. Everyone knows that qualified directors of factories and department stores were precisely those who went through the entire career ladder from the bottom up, from the machine to the counter.
Slide 14
needs in the labor market Abilities Knowledge Health Dreams Interests Tendencies Desires I want I can I need The formula for success when choosing a profession. If you can combine “I want, I can, I need,” then your professional choice will be successful. In other words, you need to choose a profession that will be interesting, match your abilities and be in demand in the labor market.)
