PEDAGOGICAL CONDITIONS AND METHODICAL PECULIARITIES OF IMPLEMENTATION OF THE SPECIAL COURSE CONTENTS FOR ENGINEERING AND TECHNICAL ORIENTATION IN THE PROFESSIONAL TRAINING PROCESS

Abstract

The conceptual idea of profile training of engineering and technical technologies has been formulated, on the basis of which the content of the textbook for the special course “Design and construction of engineering objects” has been designed. “Professional training of students on the basics of design and construction of products should be carried out in the content of the main types of specialists’ technical creativity (design, construction, rationalization, invention), differentiated to the level of students.” The peculiarities of profile education of technologies in high school according to its content have been determined, the corresponding tasks have been formulated. A new methodology has been developed for the profile technology training for engineering and technical orientation, the content effective implementation of the specified special course. Its components are: a conceptual idea, a new content, the educational environment is close to the production, innovative organizational forms and interactive teaching methods. The content and essence of components, importance and features of application of innovative organizational forms and interactive methods have been determined in the process of profile technology training for engineering and technical orientation. The article emphasizes the importance of learning the environment for profile training in technology engineering. The basis of profile technology training in high school in the content of the special course “Design and construction of engineering objects” should be a holistic project and close to the students’ productive educational activities according to the structure of modern scientific high-tech production: technical design and construction, design of technological processes, technical equipment of production, manufacturing technology, presentation of the manufactured product. Experimental studies have been carried out, qualitative and quantitative analysis of experimental results has been performed. On the basis of the obtained results, conclusions have been made about the effectiveness of the content of the special course “Design and construction of engineering objects”, new methodology and its components for the thorough mastery by students the basics of designing and constructing of engineering objects, forming of design and technological competence.
