Halytska N. Research skills development of students during the lessons of natural and mathematical disciplines in general secondary education (late 50's - early 90's of the ХХ century).

The work carried out a retrospective analysis of the study of the problem of research skills of students in class during the teaching of natural and mathematical sciences in furthering the late 50's - early 90-ies of XX century educational theory and educational practice in school overall term of secondary education Ukraine. On this basis, the possibilities of creative use of constructive ideas of historical and pedagogical experience in the educational process of modern educational institutions are outlined. The object of research is natural and mathematical education in general secondary education institutions of Ukraine (late 50's - early 90's of the XX century). Subject of research is research skills in classes of natural and mathematical sciences in secondary education institutions of Ukraine (late 50's - early 90's. XX century). The aim of the research is to analyze the theoretical aspects and practical perspective experience in the development of research skills of students in the lessons of natural sciences and mathematics in general secondary education in the late 50's - early 90's of the XX century to extrapolate creative progressive ideas into modern educational environment. Scientific novelty and theoretical significance of the obtained results is that for the first time: a holistic process of research development skills of students in lessons of natural and mathematical disciplines in institutions general secondary education of Ukraine in the second half of the ХХ century; identified factors influencing the genesis of students' research skills in science lessons mathematical disciplines in general secondary education of the subject period: political and ideological; socio-economic; educational and legal; pedagogical and semantic. Тhe stages of development of research skills of students are singled out: І period (1958 - 1964) - content and ideological; II period (1965 - 1972) - educational and polytechnic; III period (1973 - 1993) - transformational research, has two subperiods: 1973 - 1983 and 1984 - 1993; a retrospective analysis of the content of students' research skills in lessons was carried out in the study period; the concept of "research activity" is specified, "skills", "research skills"; further development acquired the provisions and conclusions on the effectiveness of the use of forms and methods of development students' research skills; the possibilities of creative application are substantiated historical experience of working with young students in general institutions secondary education in Ukraine in the context of the Concept of Development of Natural and Mathematical Education (STEM-education).
