Preparation of future teachers of mathematics for implementation in a school of academic line " entrepreneurship and financial literacy"

Abstract

У статті розглянуто актуальну для системи освіти й усього суспільства проблему підготовки майбутніх учителів до роботи в сучасній школі, до використання компетентнісного підходу у процесі навчання математики. Висвітлюються особливості впровадження в систему освіти Концепції нової української школи, зокрема, реалізації в загальноосвітніх навчальних закладах змістової лінії «підприємливість і фінансова грамотність». Розглянуто шляхи підготовки майбутніх учителів математики до формування в учнів основ фінансової компетентності в процесі навчання окремих дисциплін. Наведено окремі приклади задач, що спрямовані на реалізацію в процесі навчання математики змістової лінії «підприємливість і фінансова грамотність», які доцільно розв’язувати у вищій та середній школі.

The article considers the problem of the preparation of future teachers for work in a modern school, relevant to the education system and the whole society, to the use of a competent approach in the process of teaching mathematics. The peculiarities of introducing the concept of a new Ukrainian school into the system of education are highlighted, in particular, the implementation of four cross-cutting lines of key competencies: «Environmental Security and Sustainable Development», «Civic Responsibility», «Health and Safety», «Entrepreneurship and Financial literacy», which are aimed at forming pupils ability to apply knowledge and skills in real life situations. The cross-cutting line «Entrepreneurship and Financial literacy» is aimed at developing leadership initiatives, the ability to successfully operate in a rapidly changing technology environment, and providing students with a better understanding of the practical aspects of financial issues (savings, investing, borrowing, insurance, lending, etc.). The ways of preparation of future teachers of mathematics for formation of the bases of financial competence in students during the process of studying of: – «Elementary Mathematics». – «Theory of Probability and Mathematics statistic». – «Higher Mathematics». – «Informatics». – «Methods of teaching mathematics». – «History of mathematics» are considered. Certain examples in the course «History of Mathematics» students get acquainted with the entrepreneurship of the famous Greek mathematician Thales of Miletus, the history of the emergence and use of the concept of "percentage", with historical tasks of financial content. The cours of «Elementary mathematics» is a real opportunity to show the connection between mathematics and human activity, and to consider more complex tasks that students will encounter in future pedagogical activities. In the context of research subject such course as «Theory of Probability and Mathematic statistic» has a considerable potential for the formation «entrepreneurial and financail literary». The last is due to fact that researching economic phenomena is impossible without mathematical modeling, Regression correlation ahalyses, variance models, and other methods which are based on Theory of Probability. In the course of «Methods of teaching mathematics», students (future mathematics teachers) consider the purpose, content, forms, methods and means of teaching mathematics at school. Since the content and purpose are specified in the normative documents, the question of the need for the implementation of the cross-cutting line «Entrepreneurship and financial literacy» is considered during the 3rd year (general methodology), during the 4th year (the methodology of teaching mathematics in the basic school) and during the 5th year (the methodology of teaching mathematics in senior specialist school). The current work of teachers and students is currently relevant. It is possible to formulate projects related to financial issues, namely «Currency Exchange», «Energy Conservation and Savings»,«Charity in Ukraine», «My Family Taxes», etc.
