Abstract

The analysis of four curricula of teachers training of natural sciences in higher education institutions is presented in the paper. The question of curricula developing for pre-service teachers of natural sciences and introducing integrated courses in biology, physics and chemistry studying and conducting a new specialization in the educational branch “Secondary Education” should be studied. We analyzed the characteristics and the current state of curricula implementation into the educational process. The analysis of the normative framework regulated the teacher’s activity is also made. In the framework of the components of teacher’s professional activity there is considered terms of qualification characteristics. The considered professional standards and qualification characteristics made it possible to conclude the curricula correspond to the normative documents and modern requirements for the professional teacher’s activity. The analysis of four curricula by sections is carried out. It made possible to compare the list of their components and the logical sequence of courses and to determine their common and distinctive features. The existence of the integrative component of each curriculum and its conformity to the formation of the professional competences of future teachers was established. The use of problem-oriented learning technology can form the subject competence, formulated in accordance with the basic subjects: physics, chemistry, biology, natural science. Subject competence in science is an integrative part of the course. They are based on the formation of the integrity of representations of nature, the use of science and information on the basis of operation of the basic general laws of nature. The classification of integrated courses is made on the basis of the nature of the relationships between disciplines and the integration degree. The existence of integrative components in the list of the educational-professional/scientific program and their conformity with the classification of the integration of courses is established. We also defined the disciplines of influence on the formation of integrative competences of pre-service teachers of integrated courses of natural sciences.
