Abstract

In a world where rapid changes are taking place in society, economy, and technology, it is necessary for future geography teachers to be oriented towards the latest trends and be ready to adapt to them through continuous professional development. Accordingly, the scientific article aimed to determine the essence and characteristics of the main methodological approaches to preparing future geography teachers in the context of their continuous professional development. The study employed various research methods, including theoretical analysis of psychological-pedagogical sources, description, synthesis, systematization, abstraction, comparison, and generalization of data. These methods helped to identify the main aspects of methodological approaches to preparing future geography teachers for continuous professional development. They are also used to create a teaching model that contributes to the continuous development of participants in the educational process. The research reveals methodological approaches to preparing future geography teachers for continuous professional development. The conceptual methodology and research objectives, features of methodological approaches to preparing future geography teachers in conditions of continuous professional development, are determined. The article reveals the essence of individualization in the preparation of future geography teachers for continuous professional development. The specifics of the main approaches (systemic, personal, synergistic, activity-based, axiological, and competency-based approaches) in preparing future geography teachers for continuous professional development are characterized. Emphasis is placed on the importance of developing readiness of future geography teachers for continuous professional development in professional training in accordance with each methodological approach. Attention is focused on the importance of transitioning from classical models of educational preparation of future geography teachers to systems that prepare professionals capable of working in new circumstances and ready for lifelong learning, upbringing, and continuous professional growth. The practical value of the research lies in highlighting important methodological approaches and innovative methodologies that can be used to adapt approaches to organizing the educational process for the specialty 014.07 Secondary Education (Geography) and other specialties for preparing future teachers in the face of modern challenges in education
