SKILLS, ABILITIES, BELIEFS: HIGHEST LEVELS COMPETENCES AND OUTLOOK OF THE INDIVIDUAL

Abstract

The multi-disciplinarily of STEM-integration innovations of the modern system of natural science education focuses on effective and high-quality formation of the future specialist through the prism of the formation of one’s own author’s credo as an essential indicator of his competence and worldview. Since the end of the 1990s, the problem of improving the quality of education of specialists in the field of natural sciences has become quite relevant in the educational policy of many European countries. Experience [3–13; 15; 17–22] confirms: the reform of science education on the basis of competency-based and worldview approaches can be fully resolved only under the condition of a comprehensive understanding of this problem, which involves updating state standards (learning content and educational environment), curricula, textbooks, manuals, tools, practical training etc. The formation of an individual’s natural and scientific competence takes place in the process of his mastering a set of sciences that study nature and its laws. STEM-integration of education prompts modern multi-disciplinarily to the need to optimize the process of solving the problem of managing the competence-viewpoint formation of a future specialist of any profile. The publication proves that the development of the New Ukrainian School focuses on the implementation of technologies of binary goal orientations (a specific academic discipline + its teaching method) as a means of forming a holistic natural and scientific credo of an individual: ensuring the readiness of a teenager, a young person, a specialist of any profile to study throughout all life and mastering the experience of mankind regarding the creation and use of high technologies in all possible scientific and industrial spheres of safe innovative human activity.
