Development of engineering university educator’s creativity within the framework of the discipline “innovations in engineering pedagogy”

The research is intended to deal with the requirements that society and dynamically changing reality impose on engineering educator. The new generation of educators must ensure development and implementation of new pedagogical technologies based on rapidly developing information and telecommunication technologies, taking into account modern scientific and industrial technologies. To cope with these requirements engineering educator must be creative. Within the framework of ERASMUS + project “EngineeriNg educaTors pEdagogical tRaining” (“ENTER”), Kazan National Research Technological University in cooperation with thirteen universities from Europe, Kazakhstan and Russia, develop a Multi-Level Modular Curricula “Innovative Pedagogy for Engineering HEIs’ Educators” (iPET) for the continuing professional training of “educator of the future”. One of iPET’s disciplines “Innovations in Engineering Pedagogy” is designed to promote creativity of engineering educator and the process and the requirements to its content designing are shown in this article.
