Abstract:
The prepared text will be an attempt to present the functioning of the teacher at an extremely rapid time of modern change. Complex cognitive processes play an important role in it, i.e.: imagination, thinking and language. Each teacher has imagination, thinking that enables the implementation of an idea, combined with the selection of the content of the subject of teaching, the implementation of tasks provided for in the curriculum, in order to perform them in the form of products. The analyzed cognitive processes support teachers' professionalism and help to design educational challenges, building a system of motivation, knowledge and skills of educational partners. The value of the teacher's activity will be shown through practical solutions to the projects of academic teaching tasks in the subject. In this way, the teacher's routine duties will be enhanced by creativity, which can become a source of further educational inspiration.
