“Термодинамика и статистическая физика”). Обоснованы концептуальные
основы формирования и развития научного мировоззрения будущих учителей
физики как одной из приоритетных задач курса теоретической физики.
The thesis for the first time offers the theoretical and methodological principles
of teaching Theoretical Physics of future teachers of physics based on individually
oriented, activity and competency approaches. This combination will achieve the unity
of basic and professional training of future specialists. The content of the modern
concept of teaching Theoretical Physics at pedagogical universities includes the
following statements:
the course of studies is an integral methodical system that includes goals,
objectives, content and technologies, united by a common methodology of
construction and implementation in conformity with the principle of integration of
fundamental orientation and professional training of future Physics teachers;
the methodical system of Theoretical Physics’ teaching is an invariant part of
fundamental training of future Physics teachers. It involves the forming of the
professional competence, which affects it’s all other components (social and personal,
general scientific, specialized and professional etc.);
the necessary conditions of forming of the professional competence of students
are: a) fundamentality of general scientific training; b) providing creative activity and
self-realization of students on the basis of the developing training methodology,
competence and individually oriented approaches, the optimal combination of
traditional and innovative learning technologies; c) implementation of the continuity
principle and relationship of the courses of General and Theoretical Physics in the
system of training of Physics teachers; d) introduction of module-rating system of the
educational process, systematic and continuous monitoring of the quality of students’
educational achievements;
the structure of the course of studies should be a systematic unity of content-
related and procedural components. The first one contains the main subject (invariant)
and auxiliary (variable) knowledge. The invariant part includes the material that
combines the empirical basis and core of fundamental physical theories, the variant
one - the consequences of theories, application and professionally oriented knowledge.
The process component contains methods, means and kinds of teaching students, as
well as organizational forms of teaching, which are in congruence with goals, content
and nature of their future professional activities;
the basis of Theoretical Physics teaching should be the formation of the person
of a future Physics teacher, the formation of a cultured and educated person with a
broad scientific outlook and appropriate style of thinking, who lives and works in the
world of modern technology. This means that the educational process should be based
on the transferring from information and illustrative charts, which are oriented to
transferring from passive getting of knowledge to search and creative educational
process, learner-oriented, aimed also at the training of professionally significant
personal qualities, the development of cognitive activity, intellectual and creative
40
abilities and the formation of students’ attitudes toward the knowledge and the process
of getting them as a great value.
The author for the first time under the conditions of a credit-transfer educational
organization of teaching at pedagogical university suggested the methodical system of
training the course of studies focusing on the formation of an integrated system of
fundamental knowledge and professional competence of future Physics teachers. This
methodical system is based on the relationship of scientifically based components
(target, content procedure, diagnostic and outcome components) and provides keeping
to conceptual approaches and organizational and pedagogical conditions that ensure
effective implementation of it. The target component is a basic, backbone element of
the methodological system. It defines the functions of all other components and
provides the students' awareness of the general purpose and the main tasks of learning
the discipline at pedagogical university, which depend on the requirements of the
society and the state standard of higher education.
The basis of the methodical system is a content-related and procedural
component which contains proper train training material and effective didactic
appliances according to the core curriculum and composed by O.Shkola module
program. The methodical system also includes the means of systematic and continuous
diagnostics of students’ progress, criteria and showings of the levels of their
fundamental knowledge of Theoretical Physics.
The author also for the first time has developed a module program of the course of
studies “Theoretical Physics” for pedagogical universities. Having based on the
structuring knowledge elements, O.Shkola identified and elaborated the content of
scientific and theoretical, practical and activity components of professional competence
of students for each thematic module in the form of "students know / understand" (the
meaning of physical concepts and values, phenomenon, effects, methods, experiments,
laws and consistent patterns, principles, postulates, theorems, equations, and physical
constants); "Students can" ( explain, represent and analyze, simulate, detect and remove,
solve, draw philosophy-natured conclusions).Generalizations presented in this manner
allow to distinguish the basic material as fundamental, which has the most important
professional and pedagogical value and the support material, and then present them as a
system which ensures the validity of knowledge on the long term, develops abilities and
helps to master new information quickly.
The author developed and implemented the educational and methodical complex
of the course of studies of “Theoretical Physics” (illustrated by an example of the
course “Thermodynamics and Statistical Physics”) of future Physics teachers. The
author experimentally demonstrated pedagogical appropriateness and effectiveness of
the methodical system of forming and developing scientific outlook of future
specialists.
