CRITERIA AND INDICATORS OF METHODOLOGICAL COMPETENCE OF THE FUTURE TEACHER OF MATHEMATICS IN THE PROCESS OF DEVELOPMENT OF LOGICAL THINKING OF STUDENTS

Abstract

In the article we reveal the influence of methodical training of the future teacher of mathematics on the development of logical thinking of future teachers. We substantiate that the effectiveness of the development of logical thinking of students in mathematics lessons depends on the quality of methodological training of mathematics teachers in the free economic zone. Our experience in training future teachers of mathematics, allowed us to identify the criteria of methodological competence of mathematics teachers in the development of logical thinking of students: motivational, cognitive and activity; to characterize indicators of methodical competence of the teacher of mathematics in the course of development of logical thinking of pupils. We characterize the motivational criterion as the need of future mathematics teachers to master the methodological knowledge, skills and abilities for the development of logical thinking of students. The motivational criterion is revealed by the following indicators: professional orientation on the development of students' logical thinking; motivation for self-improvement in methodical activity. The cognitive criterion reflects the knowledge of future mathematics teachers of the logical component of students' mathematical competence. Indicators of the cognitive criterion of methodological competence of a mathematics teacher in the process of development of logical thinking of students are: completeness of theoretical knowledge of the logical component of mathematical competence of students; familiarity with the methods of developing students' logical thinking in mathematics lessons. The activity criterion shows the ability of future mathematics teachers to develop students 'logical thinking and involves mastery of methods for developing students' logical thinking. Indicators of the activity criterion of methodical competence of a mathematics teacher in the process of developing students' logical thinking are: the ability to use theoretical knowledge in practice; ability to develop the logical component of students' mathematical competence; the ability to generate new ideas aimed at improving the development of logical thinking of students. Selected criteria and indicators of methodological competence of mathematics teachers in the development of logical thinking of students reveal the importance of the ability to form a logical component of mathematical competence of students and determine the content of methodical activities of teachers in the development of logical thinking of students.
