Formation of mathematical competencies through the use of modeling in interactive learning in mathematics lessons

Abstract

The Concept of the New Ukrainian School defines the importance of using the teaching methods. The article highlights the essence of interactive methods of teaching mathematics and argues the advantages of their use in the educational process of secondary educational institutions. A description of individual methods of interactive teaching is given, the importance of their use in the process of forming mathematical competencies is revealed.

Interactive teaching methods are an alternative to students' educational activities under modern conditions in our country. All interactive methods are aimed at actively involving students in the educational process, getting them interested in thinking independently, and consciously learning information. Unlike traditional methods, the main task of which in the educational process was the transfer of "ready-made" knowledge from the teacher to students, interactive methods are based on active interaction of participants of the educational process, while attention is paid to the interaction of students among themselves. This approach allows, by activating the educational process, to make it more interesting, and, therefore, less tiring for students. During the lessons there should be an atmosphere of goodwill, mutual support, mutual respect. Effective study of mathematics requires self-control in the use of time, in the organization of independent work, in the ability to correctly choose and use the Internet resources. Mathematics requires from the student willpower, initiative and endurance on the way to victory. The task of every teacher to teach students not to avoid, but to overcome difficulties, to cultivate perseverance and a desire for research for them. Interactive teaching methods in mathematics lessons will help in solving these issues.

The use of interactive technologies is one of the promising areas of the educational development in Ukraine.
