The webinar was attended by second-year students of the specialty "Secondary Education (History and Civics)" Oleksandr Miroshnychenko and Liliia Tumash. During the subsequent discussion in the history of Ukraine classes, they shared the approaches they had learned, demonstrated how the knowledge they had gained could be applied in their own scientific research, and outlined the possibilities of using them when teaching relevant topics in the school history course. Such an exchange of views allowed not only to consolidate the material, but also to rethink it through the prism of future professional activity.
Continued participation in the webinar series testifies to the systematic work of the students on the formation of professional competencies and the ability to combine academic knowledge with pedagogical skills. Such events create a favorable environment for the professional growth and development of a modern history teacher.
