Teachers' Attitudes towards Students as Quality Factor in Educational Environment

2085

Abstract

The paper reviews the quality of educational environment from the perspective of its social psychological characteristics conditioned by teachers' pedagogical positions. The paper provides the outcomes of empirical studies of teachers' attitudes towards students and vice versa, and outlines a typology of teachers' pedagogical positions that was developed on the basis of J. Korczak's classification of 'educational environments'. Different pedagogical positions are analysed from the point of view of their social psychological effectiveness, that is, their ability to stimulate free, unrestricted activities of students as subjects of educational process.
