FORMATION OF BIOLOGY COMPETENCE OF FUTURE BACHELOR OF NATURAL SCIENCES: A SYSTEM OF CONSTRUCTIVE METHODOLOGICAL APPROACHES

Abstract

The concept of the New Ukrainian School puts forward new requirements for the professional training of a modern teacher, in particular regarding the quality and range of his competencies. After all, it is the ability to quickly respond to changes, to be ready for the introduction of innovative methods of teaching and education, which ultimately determines his personal and professional relevance to the reform of the New Ukrainian School, the full performance of the role of a decisive factor in the success of the implementation of the concept of paradigmatic changes in higher pedagogical education. In view of the above, it is time to determine the methodological guidelines that ensure the success of becoming a teacher of the New Ukrainian School in the conditions of a higher education institution - the main stage of the formation of a teacher, which Ukrainian society and the children's community are waiting for.
 The modern educational practice of constructive implementation of the ideas of integration of the content of school natural science education and its reorientation to the competence model has proven the perspective of just such an approach. In addition, fundamental natural science education is one of the main factors of personality development, and acquired natural and scientific competence is a mandatory component of an individual's general culture and a resource for the development of his creative potential. Thus, the biological component of modern science education is aimed not only at ensuring the integrity of fundamental knowledge, but first of all at the realization of a person's creative and active existence in the surrounding world. In addition, the biological component of natural science training directly affects the formation of a scientific style of thinking as a prerequisite for the socio-cultural self-determination of the subject of knowledge.
 In this context, it becomes obvious the need to increase the level of subject biology competence of future bachelors of natural sciences, because they must be ready to work in the conditions of the New Ukrainian School - a modern education platform.
 Therefore, qualitatively new methodological approaches to the formation of subject-specific competences, particularly in biology, are the core of the professional training of future bachelors of natural sciences. Shifting the emphasis of higher professional education to the development of a competent and competitive specialist is an important criterion for the quality training of a future teacher of natural sciences.
