PRESS CONFERENCE LECTURES AS A MEANS OF DEVELOPING MOTIVATION FOR STUDYING NON-CORE DISCIPLINES AMONG UNIVERSITY STUDENTS

Abstract

The purpose of the study is to substantiate that a lecture-press conference as a method of contextual teaching (according to A.A. Verbitsky) has significant potential for shaping the motivation of university students to study non-core academic disciplines. In the article, using the example of the implementation of a lecture at a press conference in mathematics for students of biological training, the possibilities and features of conducting this type of lecture classes in the motivational aspect are revealed. Scientific novelty lies in the development and clarification of scientific ideas about modern methods used in the process to create motivation for studying non-core disciplines among university students. As a result, the work proposes an option for delivering a lecture at a press conference using the case method on the topic “An antiderivative function and an indefinite integral,” and presents a brief description of the introductory, main and final stages of the lecture, reflecting the stages of the process of forming motivation for studying non-core disciplines among university students. It is shown that press conference lectures are an important direction in introducing a contextual approach to teaching students non-core disciplines in order to form learning motivation.
