A MODEL FOR DEVELOPING ENTREPRENEURIAL ACTIVITY AMONG FUTURE TEACHERS IN THE CONTEXT OF UNIVERSITY EDUCATION

The purpose of the article is to consider the developed model for the development of entrepreneurial activity of future teachers in university education, aimed at integrating entrepreneurial competencies into the professional training process. The relevance of the research is determined by the need for students of pedagogical specialties to develop skills that meet the requirements of an innovative educational environment and global changes in their professional activities. The research used a modeling method, which made it possible to systematize approaches and identify the key components of the model. The target component defines the purpose and objectives aimed at developing students' motivation and professional competencies necessary for the successful implementation of educational projects. The content component includes cognitive, motivational-value, and activity blocks, which ensure the comprehensive development of knowledge, motivation, and practical skills. The procedural component is based on  the application of modern  pedagogical approaches,  such  as competence-based,  learner-centred,  and project-based approaches, and also includes principles, teaching methods, pedagogical conditions, forms of organization, and means that contribute to the effective cultivation of entrepreneurial capacity among students. The assessment and outcome component is aimed at monitoring and assessing the level of formation of entrepreneurial competencies. A schematic representation illustrates the structure and interrelation of model components. This model ensures the consistency and effectiveness of the process of fostering entrepreneurship in future teachers within university education. It was preliminarily tested in a small pilot group of pedagogy students, confirming its applicability and relevance.  Its implementation contributes to the formation of future teachers'  readiness for entrepreneurial activity, the development of leadership skills, creativity, and the ability to adapt to dynamic changes in the educational environment.
