Abstract

Due to rapidly changing modern world technologies, the employers, when hiring the university graduates, enquire not merely into the level of their professional knowledge, but also a predisposition toward learning, potential successfulness, capabilities and actual abilities. Currently, due to digitization in education, the problem of learning success of university students is of particular relevance, since successfulness is a value category reflecting a person’s idea of the purpose of life. The article discusses the influence of some general personality abilities on the learning success of a university student pursuing a degree in Pedagogical Education with profile of Mathematics and Computer Science. In the course of the research, the most demanded abilities for future teachers of mathematics and computer science were chosen. Such abilities include: analytical abilities, spatial perception, visual thinking, ability to count, verbal abilities. The authors in their research analyzed the dependence of the influence of all combinations of abilities on the student's academic success. Empirical evidence suggests that not all of the abilities chosen for research unambiguously determine the student’s academic success. As a result of the study, models of dependence of learning success on types of combinations of various abilities were developed and the correlation of combinations of levels of development of abilities and learning success of students of higher educational institutions majoring in Pedagogics was evaluated.
