Development of personal and professional qualities of the future teacher under the conditions of update of the information culture of society

Modern society needs citizens who are creators of their own lives and contribute to innovation and development of society. The problem of developing the personal and professional qualities of the future teacher in the conditions of updating the information culture of society requires special attention, in particular, the search for ways to optimize the social formation of young professionals, the formation of their social maturity as a prerequisite for the individual's path to successful self-affirmation and interaction with the social environment.

One of the most relevant trends in the development of modern society is the informatization of social reality. The impact of information and communication technologies on society is wide and multifaceted, especially in the economy, culture and education. Today, information has become a leading factor in socio-economic, political-legal and spiritual-cultural development of modern society. Information and communication technologies increasingly influence various spheres of life, science, and education. It is also natural that with qualitatively new transformations in social life caused by the process of informatization, the question of the peculiarities of the integration of the individual into the social system has become topical.

Under the conditions of the introduction of informatization into all areas of human life and activity and under their direct influence, a complex of needs is formed in it, which corresponds to the development of the information society: in self-realization through the use of information and communication technologies in all aspects of one's existence; in self-development in the conditions of the formation of the information society; in constant updating and continuous improvement of professional capabilities. The realization of these needs is one of the fundamental conditions for the formation of social maturity of a person.

As a separate criterion of the social maturity of the future teacher, the ability for informational self-development is singled out. The content of the ability to informational self-development is revealed through the following indicators: the need for constant updating of knowledge; professional mobility and adaptability in the information society; responsibility when working with technical means; relation to information, objects and phenomena in the information environment; critical attitude to information consumption; self-assessment and reflection at the level of informational contacts.
