Abstract
This article explores the significance of developing media competence in the professional training of future primary school teachers. It emphasizes that teachers today are not only knowledge providers but also facilitators of independent, critical, and cultural thinking. The study concludes that media competence, when integrated with person-oriented education, enhances the competitiveness of teachers, enriches the educational process, and equips future educators with critical 21st-century skills.
