Training of future teachers to form a reading culture using basic software tools of information technologies

The success of a modern person largely depends on their ability to learn throughout their life. The ability to learn is formed from school in the form of universal learning activities, one of which is semantic reading. Semantic reading and reading literacy are at the core of a person's reading culture. The reader's culture is inextricably linked to the system of continuing education and represents a set of interrelated values and ways of self-educational activities aimed at working with information sources. The formation of a reading culture depends on the quality of professional training of future teachers. The aim of the research was to develop methods for forming a reader's culture using basic information technology tools and their development by students studying in the field of "Pedagogical education". The goal was achieved based on the analysis of literature and other sources, as well as by designing educational tasks aimed at forming the students ' reading culture. As a result of the research, the relationship between the concepts of "semantic reading", "reading literacy" and "reading culture" is determined. Methods for the formation of students ' reading culture using basic information technology tools are developed and methodological recommendations for their use in general education schools are given. In conclusion, it is concluded that the developed methodological techniques for working with information sources using basic software tools of information technologies will prepare future teachers for the formation of reader culture as a fundamental quality of personality for self-education throughout life.
