Дослідження як метод який збагачує досвід учнівської молоді

Abstract

The materials of the report are devoted to the problems of applying the research method in the educational process of the New Ukrainian School (NUS). The definition of what research is, its purpose, common and distinctive features as a method of teaching natural sciences (physics, chemistry, biology, geography) is given. The main method and form of research in the natural sciences is the observation of natural processes, the organization of experimental activities of schoolchildren, including the conduct of experiments, laboratory, practical and independent work by students. Special research methods include cartographic research, where students can use a map to study an object, measure, calculate, and graphically construct generalized research results. In the educational process of the National 11th edition International Scientific-Practical Conference ”Training by research for a prosperous society” 324 Academy of Sciences, monitoring and historical research methods are also used, where not only certain ecological systems are observed, but also the object in development is studied. The modeling method remains special but rarely used. As a rule, in educational practice, it is implemented in the creation of materialistic models, computer or cartographic models using GIS technologies. In general, the main goal of introducing research methods and forms into the educational process of NUS is to teach students to apply the acquired knowledge in practice. For teachers of natural sciences, the scheme "How to generalize the experience of your research work" is proposed, so that each teacher gains practical experience in the application of methods and forms of research in institutions of general secondary education.
