The Structure and Content of Senior Pupils Research Position Formation: Case of Analytical Chemistry

Abstract

Research position expresses the leading features of personality’s development process, reflects the
universality of its relations with the surrounding world, initiates abilities to creative self-expression,
self-development, determines the efficiency of cognitive activity, contributes to the transfer of
knowledge, abilities, skills of research in any area of cognitive and practical activities. Therefore, this
article is aimed at the discovery of the structure and content of the educational process of formation of
senior pupils’ research position. The leading method in the study of this problem is a modeling
method, which allow present the structure and content of senior pupils’ research position formation as
the complete pedagogical process directed on formation in the unity and interconnection of all
components of pupils’ research position. The article presents the structure of pedagogical process of
senior pupils’ research position formation, consisting of diagnostic, project-targeted, content,
operational-activity, technological and result – assessing units. Structural components of this process
determine the goal-setting, comprehensive diagnostics, methods and forms of work, technological and
didactic support.
