Abstract
The article is devoted to the problems of teaching technical disciplines in training of labour education and technologies teachers, in particular, the disclosure of their integrity as an educational system and the identification of links between components. At the initial stage, the technical training of such specialists actually duplicated traditional engineering training. Subsequently, integrated teaching subjects appeared. At the same time, the attention of scientists and faculty was in fact focused on the definition of the volume of technical disciplines and on various options of rearrangement of their content.The use of general scientific methods (analysis, comparison, synthesis) and the system approach, the main components of the study of technical disciplines in the training of labour education and technologies teachers, namely graphic, mathematical, material science, technical, technological and functional areas, are highlighted.The mathematical component creates the theoretical basis and provides the possibility to conduct various calculations. The graphic component is intended to shape the intending teachers’ spatial imagination, ability to read and execute drawings. An important thing in this context is knowledge of the structure, manufacturing methods and physical and mechanical properties of materials.The design component reflects the ability to determine the optimum shape and location of parts, the ability to master the design features of typical mechanisms, connections and gears, and the ability to calculate their basic parameters. Knowledge of the basic technologies of parts manufacturing involves the ability to determine technological bases, to calculate cutting modes, to choose equipment and tools. The functional component means solving various optimization issues.In general, it is shown that the decisive factor in the study of technical disciplines is not the re-grouping of individual courses into a variety of integrated blocks, but a complex reflection of the content of all selected components.
