Abstract

Relevance. The research's relevance is due to the need to explore optimal ways to improve the education of pupils in mathematics for the formation of mathematical literacy, by independently solving text-based tasks in mathematics regardless of the orientation of their interests and the chosen specialty.

Purpose. The purpose of the article is the characterization of methodical conditions conducive to teaching pupils to solve mathematical tasks on their own.

Methodology. The methodology of the research consisted of the use of a set of theoretical methods (general scientific, specific-scientific), which allowed processing of the scientific literature, distributing the information array, studying and clarifying terms and concepts, and structuring the collected information. And empirical methods – interviews and sociological surveys with teachers and experts in the field under study. The participants in this study were 70 primary school mathematics teachers in 2-5 grades.

Results. The article analyzes the process of the collaboration between teacher and students during solving textual problems in various ways, which allows students to form not only knowledge and skills on the relevant issue, and also to develop such elements of mathematical literacy as logical thinking and form a literate mathematical language.

Conclusions. The study's applied value is that the main points, factual materials, and conclusions can be used in the school system by teachers, methodologists, and research educators to develop recommendations for improving the teaching of schoolchildren's autonomy in solving text-based problems in mathematics.

Keywords: methodology of teaching; text-based problems; individual work; mathematical education; and methods of solving text-based problems
