%A Luniachek, Vadym %A Borysenko, Kateryna %A Varenko, Tetyana %D 2020 %T EDUCATIONAL TRAININGS FOR FUTURE GEOGRAPHY TEACHERS: UKRAINIAN PERSPECTIVE %K %X The distinctive feature of higher geography education in Ukraine is that specialists in geography are trained at two types of educational institutions: classical and purely pedagogical universities. Classical universities focus more on shaping geography competences during educational trainings while pedagogical ones aim to ensure mastery of the geography teaching methods. A classical university offers more thorough practical training due to the fact that they have their own training bases and stations. One of the challenges in cultivating geography-related competences during educational practical trainings is the need to upgrade the algorithm for conducting such trainings, increase their frequency and agreement with the theoretical component of the students' training. %U http://geosaberes.ufc.br/geosaberes/article/view/941 %J Geosaberes %0 Journal Article %R 10.26895/geosaberes.v11i0.941 %P 406-422%V 11 %@ 2178-0463 %8 2020-06-21
