The role of logical thinking in the modern education system, its significance in the formation of professional competencies, and the factors of developing the intellectual potential of future educators are scientifically highlighted. Additionally, the possibilities of problem-based learning technology, interactive methods, digital pedagogy, a reflexive approach, and research activities in developing logical thinking are examined. The article analyzes effective mechanisms for developing analytical and critical thinking in students based on the experience of Cambridge University in the UK. The research results demonstrate that developing logical thinking in the professional training of future educators is one of the important factors in increasing educational efficiency.
