1. Introduction
The 21st century has long come into its own, but schools, secondary vocational schools, and universities prepare graduates who are not always able to fit into the rapidly changing world around them. With the clear leadership of electronic information, gadgets and ever more acute health problems, many graduates find it difficult to adapt to the rapidly changing socio-economic situation. Today, one can observe a violation of socialization, self-realization, self-education, the loss of the unifying function of culture, which performs a regulatory function in activity and behavior.
The cost of education becomes extremely high, since it is directly related to the changing state of health of the subjects of the educational process.
In connection with this situation, the task of fostering a culture of a healthy and safe lifestyle for all participants in the educational process, as well as improving the professional competence of teachers in the field of preserving and strengthening the health of students, is very urgent.
2. Methodological Framework
The methodological grounds for the implementation of the presented task in the education system are as follows:
- fundamental theoretical provisions on the nature and development of the human psyche, developed in the works of L. I. Bozhovich, L. S. Vygotsky, A. V. Zaporozhets, A. N. Leontiev, A. R. Luria, S. L. Rubinstein, D. B. Elkonina and others;
- the main provisions of the cultural-historical approach (L. S. Vygotsky, V. V. Davydov., V. V. Rubtsov, V. I. Slobodchikov, G. Tsukerman and others);
the phenomenon of individual human health (N. M. Amosov, I. I. Brekhman, E. N. Weiner, E. M. Kazin, etc.);
- priority in the implementation of the preservation, strengthening and development of the health of students (pupils) are: axiological (O. S. Anisimov, M. V. Boguslavsky, etc.); anthropological (B. G. Ananiev, V. Frankl, V. A. Slastenin, B. M. Bim-Bad and others); environmental (S. V. Alekseev, I. K. Shalaev, V. Ya. Yasvin, V. I. Slobodchikov, S. V. Tarasov and others);
- system-activity approach - allowing to consider the preservation, strengthening and development of the child's health in the educational organization as a system, process and result (V. P. Bespalko, N. V. Kuzmina; V. I. Slobodchikov, etc.);
- competence-based approach (A. P. Tryapitsyna, O. E. Lebedev, I. A. Zimnyaya, S. G. Vershlovsky, etc.);
- a personality-oriented approach (L. S. Vygotsky, E. V. Bondarevskaya and others).
3. Results
In general, the issues of studying health, fostering a culture of a healthy and safe lifestyle of participants in the educational process can be found in the works of G. L. Apanasenko, R. P. Baevsky, N. M. Amosov, V. A. Ananyev, M. M. Bezrukikh, V. P. Kaznacheeva, E. N. Vayner, I. V. Dubrovina, V. P. Bespalko, A. M. Prikhozhan, V. E. Tsibulnikova, E. A. Levanova, L. G. Tatarnikova and others.
The culture of a healthy and safe lifestyle is understood by most researchers as part of the general culture of human society, a program for organizing safe life, protecting and promoting health.
The culture of a healthy lifestyle contributes to the prevention of diseases, the formation of a value attitude towards one's own health and the health of others, self-organization of one's own activities, communication, behavior and the possibility of self-realization.
Considering the culture of a healthy and safe lifestyle in the context of maintaining, strengthening and developing the health of students, attention should be paid to the following:
- fostering a culture of a healthy and safe lifestyle - a system-forming type of teacher's activity, aimed at forming a value attitude to health in a certain type of educational environment;
- the culture of a healthy and safe lifestyle is characterized by inextricably interconnected main aspects - scientific, practical and organizational.
It should be noted that the professional activity of a teacher is health-consuming, and the teacher's lack of value attitudes towards his own health and the health of others determines the problem of developing a culture of a healthy and safe lifestyle for the teacher himself.
Therefore, in an educational institution, it is important to pay attention to the readiness of the teachers themselves to bring up a healthy and safe lifestyle among students. This readiness lies in understanding the essence of health, a healthy and safe lifestyle, in the presence of motivation for self-development.
In general, a teacher's health culture is understood as a system of knowledge and skills, a value-based attitude to health, emotional-volitional experience of a teacher, his readiness for practical health-saving activities aimed at the formation, preservation and strengthening of students' health (V. V.Sokorev, N. N. Malyarchuk, V. E. Tsibulnikova, E. A. Levanova).
In order to contribute to the upbringing of a culture of a healthy and safe lifestyle of participants in the educational process, the teacher must be proficient in subject areas that perform an integrative function - psychology, pedagogy, and developmental physiology in accordance with the goal of education - the diversified development of the personality of students, including the formation of culture healthy and safe lifestyle.
Acquisition, actualization of psychology, pedagogy, and developmental physiology -knowledge is possible through the system of continuous professional pedagogical education, which contributes to an increase in psychological and pedagogical competence with the active use of the information component.
The core is teaching and upbringing methods aimed at activating the reserve capabilities of a person: art therapy methods, immersion method, audio-visual method, sound and light therapy, psychoregulation, etc. The use of these methods is possible only in the system of subject-subject interaction of a student and a teacher who activates the reserve capabilities of a person, contributing to the search for mechanisms of competent pedagogical influence on the personal development of a student.
In general, the teacher carries out informational interaction with his students. And the key concept here is the information interaction of people who owns himself. An indicator of this quality is, among other things, speech, communication skills, conflictological competence, stress resistance.
