RELATIONSHIP OF CREATIVITY IN THE ACTIVITIES
OF A TEACHER WITH THE EFFICIENCY OF LEARNING ACTIVITIES OF STUDENTS

The importance of creativity in education is now widely recognized as an essential skill of the 21st century. This article examines the relationship of teachers ‘creativity with the style of pedagogical communication and the effectiveness of students’ learning activities. The study involved 28 teachers (including 6 men and 22 women aged 32-60 years) and 78 students, whose classes were taught by these teachers. Research methods: method of determining personal creativity E. E. Tunic; method for determining social creativity (level of creative potential) E. E. Tunic; test questionnaire “Style of pedagogical activity” А. М. Markova and A. Ya. Nikonova, analysis of documents documenting the success of their educational activities, elements of pedagogical monitoring. It was revealed that the parameters that determine the creative characteristics of the personality of teachers and their individual teaching styles are in a significant relationship. The expressiveness of the emotional-improvisational and emotional-methodological styles of teaching contributes to the manifestation of the teacher’s creative abilities, and the orientation towards the reasoning-methodological style, on the contrary, prevents the realization of these qualities. Students in whom the majority of teachers demonstrate a creative approach in pedagogical activity show higher educational results and involvement in the educational process.
