Formation of methodological culture of students in physics in the process of creative cognitive activity

Abstract

The article focuses on the formation of creative and productive components of the methodological culture of students in the context of the implementation of the concept of the New Ukrainian school. The full formation of these components is not possible without involving students in creative cognitive activity. Creative cognitive activity is the subject of design and organization by the teacher. Theoretical and practical mechanisms of organization of creative educational and cognitive activity during the study of physics in the context of formation of methodological culture of students, assimilation of methodological knowledge and competencies are revealed. It is a question of modeling and the organization of creative cognitive activity on the basis of performance of physical experiments and educational supervision. The place and role of experimental tasks are analyzed, which involve students in performing simple physical experiments and educational observations. As practice shows, such tasks, especially during the study of the basic course of physics, can serve as an effective means of problem-based content of creative cognitive activity. In the process of their implementation, the transformation of reproductive activity into creative activity is realized on the basis of the manifestation of cognitive initiative and awareness of the by-product of reproductive activity. The mechanisms and means of management of cognitive activity on the basis of indirect influence are revealed, which promote mastering of the orienting basis of activity and formation of the basic components of methodological culture of pupils. Experimental tasks performed on the basis of successfully selected by the teacher guidelines are perceived by students not as reproductive but as creative.
