PROJECT METHOD AS A METHOD OF INCREASING MOTIVATION TO STUDY NON-PROFILE SUBJECTS AMONG UNIVERSITY STUDENTS

Abstract

The article discusses the application of the project method of teaching mathematics to university students. The need to apply this method is due to the low motivation of students to study non-core subjects. The article examines the role of the method of projects for increasing the cognitive interest in a non-core subject, the formation of a value-semantic attitude to the learning process, the development of research experience, and the stimulation of students’ subjectivity. The work presents examples of implemented educational projects in mathematics, describes the stages of organizing the project activities of students, and draws conclusions about the need to use this method as an effective means of increasing students’ motivation for independent and meaningful mastering of mathematics.
