Abstract

The peculiarities of formation of cognitive interest of future specialists of the fire-rescue service are analyzed in the work; Indicators of the effectiveness of this process are highlighted: the focus of the educational process on the theory of personal content (meaningful settings, personal meanings, motives); attitude to training as the main factorprofessional formation of the future specialist of the fire and rescue service; knowledge of the specifics of the profession of specialist firefighter; holistic perception of the educational process; professional competence; persistence of cognitive interest and independence of actions of cadets for the purpose of expanding their professional outlook.
It is established that the nature of the attitude of future specialists of the fire and rescue service to lectures, practical and field lessons, to independent work depends largely on how specific ideas they have about the essence of cognitive interest, scientific knowledge and their role in professional development; features of creation of conditions for independent work, self-education and practice of cadets. Given this fact, we have tried to find out how cadets are aware of the importance of their professional choices; the relationship between the level of their cognitive interest and the success of their professional activity.
Emphasis is placed on the existence of a close link between the level of knowledge, skills of future firefighters and the formation of cognitive interest.
The results of the survey, conducted among cadets, showed that their attitude to lectures, practical and field work, to independent work leaves much to be desired. The cadets pay little attention to both education and self-education. At the same time, interest in field trips is high.
The necessity of development of organizational and pedagogical conditions of formation of cognitive interest of future specialists of fire-rescue service is proved.
