prognostic activity

Development of students' cognitive abilities in the conditions of the university meta-educational space

The article analyzes the role of imagination as a cognitive ability in preparing students to carry out prognostic activities in the conditions of the meta-educational space of a pedagogical university. The goal is to substantiate a new vision of such a psychological property of the human psyche as imagination in the educational process while preparing students for prognostic activities. The methodological basis of this approach in our study is Kant's idea of three components of human knowledge: feelings, imagination and thinking.
