The article is devoted to the consideration of students' independent work in terms of the efficiency of its organization and implementation. The concept of “independent work”, traditional for pedagogy, requires qualitatively new understanding of the contemporary challenges in crisis conditions. In modern society, there has already been a contradiction between a demand for specialists focused on self-education and poorly studied problems of organizing independent work in the theory of pedagogy on the basis of advanced technical means, information and pedagogical technologies. The purpose of this article is to highlight basic pedagogical conditions for the effectiveness of students' independent work. The theoretical research methods were used for the study of this problem, as well as a method of observation, conversations with participants in the educational process and an analysis of the author’s teaching practice. Independent work was contemplated by the author in the system of broad ideas as an imperative in the formation of creative independence of future specialists and in a close correlation with independence as a personal quality. The authors focus on such aspects of independent work as a wide field of its implementation at all levels and stages of learning, the need to vary it depending on the complexity of tasks and forms of their solution. The authors of the article persist in their point of view that the main direction of students' independent work is the formation of creative independence, which allows preparing specialists with a highly organized individual style of self-education. Provisions and observations presented in the article improve the theoretical ideas about independent work as a form of educational and cognitive activity, contribute to increasing the effectiveness of the practical introduction of this process into education system in the context of modern professional requirements.
