PERSONAL POSITION AS FACTOR OF OVERCOMING INTELLECTUAL PASSIVITY OF PRIMARY SCHOOLCHILDREN

Abstract

The study is devoted to the problem of influence
of personal position on overcoming intellectual passivity
of primary schoolchildren. A number of studies give
characteristics of poorly performing pupils which are very
similar to manifestations of intellectual passivity, however,
the term intellectual passivity is not always used and the
focus is shifted to the causes of underachievement. In
this case the nature of intellectual passivity drops out of
the research and the problem of overcoming difficulties in
learning comes to the fore. An important condition for overcoming
the intellectual passivity is transforming schoolchildrens
internal position.
