Today, teaching staff have the opportunity to improve their teaching skills not only at face-to-face professional development courses. Distance training courses and specialized services and resources provide this opportunity. The organization and practical implementation of training and professional development of teachers can be implemented with the means of cloud-oriented systems of open science. The use of tools of cloud-oriented systems of open science will contribute to a higher degree of scientificity in the teaching of natural and mathematical subjects, which is a significant advantage for teachers of scientific lyceums. The current state of pedagogical research by Ukrainian scientists regarding the use and implementation of cloud-based educational systems is analyzed. The peculiarities of the training of teachers in the countries of Western Europe are considered. The main directions of pedagogical training of teachers in Western European countries are summarized, in particular: a combination of special, general education, psychological-pedagogical and practical training in the aspect of using cloud-oriented systems in science teacher education.
The conducted research is aimed at the development of cloud-oriented informatization systems of educational institutions in the conditions of education reform, methodological, scientific-methodical, and organizational support for the use of computer technologies. An analysis of the state of development of the research problem of the use of cloud-oriented methodical systems in the process of improving the qualifications of teachers of natural and mathematical subjects for work in a scientific lyceum was carried out. The conceptual apparatus is highlighted, and the content of the main concepts related to the use of cloud-oriented methodical systems in the process of teacher training is clarified. As a result of the study of psychological and pedagogical literature, the degree of development of the problem in the domestic and foreign educational space was revealed. It has been established that with the emergence of new types of specialized education institutions, additional demands are placed on teachers to work in these institutions, which leads to the need to develop and introduce into the educational process methodical teaching systems based on the use of the latest cloud-oriented platforms, means and services for supporting scientific research in an open educational and scientific space. The combination of open science and cloud technologies opens up new perspectives for their use in the education and professional development of teachers.
The general method of researching the problem of developing the theoretical and methodological foundations of the design of cloud-oriented methodical systems for improving the qualifications of teachers of natural and mathematical subjects for work in a scientific lyceum is presented, which is the key to the training of ICT competent professionals, highly qualified pedagogical staff for modern education. The tasks of the pedagogical experiment and the basis of research and experimental work are specified. A detailed description of each stage of the experiment is given.
The paper considers the design models of a cloud-oriented system and analyzes the Ukrainian and foreign experiences of modelling cloud-oriented systems. The structure of cloud-oriented system design models was studied, and the key blocks were considered. Depending on the set goal of the model, its structure is formed. The basis for further design will be the main types of activities: implementation of methods, preparation of manuscripts of articles and theses of reports, participation in mass scientific and practical events, professional development, and scientific and information activities. The main activities of a scientist and a teacher are compared. Certain types of activities that are common to both a scientist and a teacher are defined. A detailed description of each type of activity was made, which, possibly, will be the specifics of teacher training for work in a scientific lyceum in the future.
