METHODS, TECHNIQUES, FORMS, AND MEANS OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF COGNITIVE INTEREST IN HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS IN MATHEMATICS LESSONS

Abstract

The authors investigate the problem of the development of students' cognitive interest by identifying methods, techniques, forms, and means of developing the cognitive interest of high school students in mathematics lessons. It is substantiated that the problem of the development of students' cognitive interest in learning mathematics remains relevant. It is shown that in the real teaching process, a mathematics teacher working at the standard level must constantly update the students' cognitive interests since curricula tend to become more complicated and provide for the formation of more complex and perfect skills. It has been proven that an important condition for the formation of students' interest in the content of education and in the educational activity itself is the opportunity to show intellectual initiative and independence in education. It has been confirmed that: the more diverse the methods and forms of education, the easier it is to interest students; educational material should also be sufficiently varied. According to the results of the scientific research, recommendations for the development of the cognitive interest of high school students in mathematics lessons are highlighted: only by stimulating the cognitive activity of the students themselves and increasing their efforts in mastering knowledge at all stages of education, it is possible to ensure the development of cognitive interest in mathematics; in education, it is necessary to actively work on the development of all schoolchildren, both strong in terms of success and weak; the given methods, methods, forms and means of developing the cognitive interest of high school students in mathematics lessons need practical mastering by every future mathematics teacher.
