Роль методу моделювання в розробці системи формування критичного мислення майбутніх учителів початкової школи

Abstract

The concept of simulation and model are thoroughly considered in the article. On the basis of analysis of scientific literature it is identified that simulation is the technique of intermediated study of phenomena and objects and it is directly connected with the definition "pedagogical simulation". It is marked that simulation is based on the concept of "model". Determination of this concept is thoroughly exposed in dictionaries (definition and philosophical) and also in scientific researches (К. Bataroiev, S. Honcharenko, О. Dakhin, І. Kulchytskyi, P. Sikorskyi, D. Stechenko, H. Shandryhos, V. Shtoff). It is made the conclusion that the analysis of concept determinations of "model" brings us to such generalizations: model is an artificially made pattern for something; model has a characteristic of the system; because of the analysis of the system determination of information becomes possible about its elements and acquiring of new knowledge about the investigated object. It is presented the classification by the method of model implementation (after А. Viedienov). The traditional components of the model of professional preparation of future teachers are exposed. Attention is accented on the point that simulation as a method plays a key role in development of the system of critical thinking forming in the process of professional preparation of future teachers of primary school.
