Sažetak
This paper discusses the transformation of a traditional educator in behaviorist educational paradigm, which was characteristic to a socialist period in the Republic of Croatia, into a modern one, who is an advocate of a constructivist educational concept, characteristic to the period of democratic life. The paper addresses key differences and similarities between traditional and modern educators in order to better understand expectations and criteria for successful performance in the contemporary educational activity. Implicit pedagogy is also discussed as an educator’s subjective educational theory. The justification of its understanding as a key construct of the educational concept is pointed out. The paper also emphasizes the importance of reflective practice as a component of educator’s professional development, and problematizes implementation of action research as an instrument for development of educator’ s activity.
