Abstract

The study reveals that for the development of students’ mathematical competency it is important to provide effective conditions for the formation of mathematical modeling skills. It is considered that methodologically balanced use of information and communication technologies (ICT) in the process of teaching mathematical models is a key means in the formation of students’ mathematical modeling skills. In the article, the authors described the possibilities of using the electronic manual “Methodological Tool for Developing Students. Ability to Mathematical Modeling” and the mathematics teacher’s website in today’s conditions of forced distance learning. According to the results of the expert survey, it was elucidated that there was a request from the mathematics teachers for methodologically adapted and substantiated electronic manuals. For mathematics teachers, the most important aspects in such manuals were: methodologically successful selection of applied problems; modern, relevant content of tasks for students; methodological assistance to teachers in order to increase the effectiveness of teaching. The research on the effective use of ICT in the process of formation of students’ mathematical modeling skills was based on the same principles as the development of computer-oriented methodical learning systems were based: the principle of interest in learning, the principle of adaptability to the individual characteristics of students, the principle of the student’s search activity, the principle of self-evaluation and self-actualization, the principle of individualization of learning, and the principle of cooperation and mentoring. It is concluded that it is important to form skills of using ICT for creation and study of mathematical models to prospective teachers of mathematics.
