EXPANSION AND DEEPENING OF MATHEMATICAL KNOWLEDGE OF UNDERGRADUATES IN SOLVING AND CONSTRUCTING NUMERICAL SEQUENCE PROBLEMS

Abstract

The article deals with a problem of replenishing the content of students’ training in pedagogical vocational education with specific mathematical knowledge necessary for the intellectual development of students and the formation of thinking qualities, for the application of the knowledge acquired in practical activities and continuing education. The authors pay special attention in the article to the content component and the methodology of achieving the goal directly aimed at expanding and deepening the mathematical knowledge of undergraduates of primary education related to solving problems “on numerical sequences”, voluminously presented in all relevant educational programs of primary school. As a research task, the authors of the article attempted to evaluate the ability of students to solve and design problems on the topic “Numerical sequences”. The article summarizes the practical experience of the introduction of pedagogical conditions for the study of this topic and summarizes its results.
