Abstract

The paper is devoted to the problem of content designing teacher competency-based education for its sustainable development. The research takes into account the tendency of knowledge-based education giving way to competency-based education which is more beneficial for the growing economies. The research is based on the following approaches: competency-based, communicative, axiological, task (problem)-based. The paper gives the review on the issues related to the problems of definition, structure, development and assessment of foreign language teacher competences. A pedagogical activity-based model for the content development of a prospective foreign language teacher training curriculum has been developed. It is a threeconstituent model including: input requirements on the side of ideal goals and results; pedagogical activity as a combination of profession oriented activities related to the performance of the tasks and solution of the problems in the context of current pedagogical values; output requirements on the side of practical needs. Three ways of the course content integration are suggested: horizontal integration of various courses by the same activity, vertical integration of several pedagogical activities in the same course, and entire integration of all courses through profession-oriented task and problem solving activities as the predominant teaching and learning method. The paper concludes that the application of the proposed model will assist to train students who are ready to enter the teaching field as confident beginning professionals capable of participating in the sustainable development of a particular region.
