Anotation
The article actualizes STEM-education its advantages and application perspectives. It emphasizes its importance for increasing motivation, developing critical thinking, developing research skills, developing creativity, improving communication skills, establishing interdisciplinary links, combining science and art to solve complex problems. STEM-education in chemistry methodology is analyzed, where special attention is paid to the design of innovative teaching within the framework of modern school educational process. The authors attribute the effectiveness of STEM and STEAM approaches in teaching chemistry to the actual realization of synergy between different fields of knowledge in the educational process. The article analyzes the existing problems and vector development of STEM and STEAM education in the field of chemistry methodology for the training of qualified specialists, future teachers of chemistry. The use of project work, interdisciplinarity and research approach in practical classes with students of 1-4 courses of pedagogical education (Chemistry profile) is described in detail. The article analyzes the effectiveness of STEAM-technologies application, including demonstration experiment, self-analysis of lessons, creative assignments (outline-newspaper) and research activities by students. The article emphasizes the importance of combining theoretical knowledge and practical skills, as well as the role of personal experience in the formation of professional competencies of future pedagogues.
