Creativity formation in education as a means of motivation developing for future professional activity

The article presents the results of pedagogical studies of creative educational activity exertion and the level of professional motivation (commitment to professional activity) of the first-, second- and third-year students of the Academy. The results are compared in three directions: changes in the exertion of creative educational activity; changes in professional motivation (commitment to professional activity) and comparison of features of creative educational activity exertion and features of professional motivation (commitment to professional activity). The study was based on the hypothesis, that student’s creative educational activity can be not only a means of developing his professional motivation (commitment to professional activity), but also one of its criteria. The comparative analysis of the obtained results should help to adjust the educational process in such a way that the interaction between student’s creative educational activity and the development of his professional motivation (commitment to professional activity) is positive and contributes to the professional becoming in the field of physical education.
