文摘This paper explores distinctive features of Bachelor of Education(B.Ed.)training at several well known Ukrainian and Chinese universities.Comparative analysis was performed taking into consideration important criteria in the educational process of the degree programs(legislative,social,organizational,technological).The Chinese experience is of particular interest to Ukrainian educators because of China’s ancient history and educational traditions.Radical changes took place in the education systems of both countries in the period of transition to a market-based economy in the 1990s and to knowledge-based societies.The contribution of the educational system to fast economic development of China has brought the county to second place among the largest economies in the world.The authors found similarities in the documentation on the organization of educational processes at the universities,the shared purpose of the training,the use of traditional forms of education,and the emphasis on the practical part of the training.At the same time,different features were found in the content of theoretical training,the organization of practical training,the approaches to innovation,the social benefits provided to teachers,the prestige of the teaching profession,principles of moral education,as well as financial and technical support.The authors considered a number of progressive ideas in China’s B.Ed.training,the implementation of which,at national and institutional levels in Ukraine,might contribute considerably to the modernization of pedagogical education.
