Domestic scientific schools in the field of chemistry teaching theory and methods: the personal aspect

Abstract

The article characterizes domestic scientific schools in the field of theory and teaching methods of chemistry, and based on the analysis of their scientific output, the main directions of research in this field in independent Ukraine are determined.

The purpose of the article is to characterize domestic scientific schools in the field of theory and methods of teaching chemistry in the personal aspect, analysis and generalization of the subject of their scientific research.

An analysis of the activities of scientific schools of famous Ukrainian method scientists in the field of theory and methods of teaching chemistry was carried out: N. M. Burynska, L. P. Velichko, N. N. Chaychenko, O. G. Yaroshenko.

Based on the analysis and generalization of the topics of dissertation works of the considered scientific schools, the main directions of scientific research in the domestic theory and methodology of teaching chemistry are highlighted, namely: methodological principles of forming chemical concepts and knowledge in students of general secondary education institutions; improvement of organizational forms, methods and means of teaching chemistry in institutions of general secondary education; theoretical and methodical principles of implementation of pre-professional training and specialized training in chemistry in institutions of general secondary education; methodical principles of studying chemistry as a general educational discipline in institutions of professional pre-higher education and formation of a system of chemical knowledge among students; theoretical and methodical principles of teaching chemistry in institutions of higher education; formation of the content of school chemical education and development of the methodology of teaching chemistry as a pedagogical science; professional-pedagogical and methodical training of future chemistry teachers; implementation of the environmental component in the process of teaching chemistry; theoretical and methodological principles of monitoring the results of chemistry education.

It was determined that domestic scientific schools for the theory and methods of teaching chemistry are not only an important factor in the preservation and development of traditions in the field of chemical education, but also a scientific center for generating new didactically grounded ideas to ensure innovations in chemistry education.
