Dibrivna E. Forming professionally-mathematical competence of future agrarians in the process of learning of general engineering disciplines

The thesis is devoted to the actual topic of forming professionally-mathematical competence of future agrarians in the process of learning technical disciplines. The concept «professionally-mathematical competence of future agrarians» is defined and the structure of professionally-mathematical competence is supplied. The research scientific approaches are analyzed in relation to the problem of forming professionally-mathematical competence and the semantic aspects of their forming are determined. The study determines scientific principles (didactic and specific) and pedagogical conditions of forming professionally-mathematical competence of future agrarians. On the basis of theoretical and methodical principles the algorithm and methods of forming professionally-mathematical competence of future agrarians in the process of learning technical disciplines is developed. Research proves effectiveness of the methods of forming professionally-mathematical competence by involving students in educational professional activity and creating by them independent educational products in the process of this activity. Criteria, indexes and levels of formed professionally-mathematical competence of future agrarians are supplied. The optimal combination of different educational forms, methods and teaching techniques is defined with the purpose of effective forming professionally-mathematical competence of future agrarians in the process of professional training. The algorithm of forming professionally-mathematical competence of future agrarians in the process of professional training is tested in the process of experimental training.
