The paper focuses on the main directions of integration in modern education. The basis for the examples and conclusions were fundamental studies in the field of Philosophy, Pedagogy and Mathematics. Integration as a general methodological concept in the context of the paper is more concerned with the integration of knowledge in the content of the school course of Mathematics in order to recognize and operate on them in various academic disciplines and the surrounding life. As examples of integration the author gives various concepts from different branches of mathematics (straight line, proportion, symmetry), methods of solving equations and inequalities (functional-graphic, coordinate-vector along with traditional methods), methods of proving identities and inequalities (geometric methods in Algebra and algebraic methods in Geometry). The study of mathematical content in the classroom at school should be a systematic and multifaceted process for the teacher to establish and disclose the links between different concepts, their properties, as well as methods of applying knowledge in a variety of situations. In mathematical courses and the course of Mathematics teaching methods the author offers to pay special attention to prospective teachers ability development to consider mathematical objects from different sides, thereby establishing links between different sections of Mathematics. Various special courses (or elective courses) on relevant subjects are also an important part of prospective teachers professional training, which can be purposefully used to expand inter-subject relations. In addition, the subject of term and final papers can also be made up taking into account different interpretations of mathematical concepts and methods. The author also pays great attention to the organization of such work with students. Only free knowledge enables the teacher to form students solid educational results at the level of knowledge and educational activities for the purpose of their further use in professional activities and in everyday life.

Due to the introduction and implementation of the requirements of the third-generation Federal State Educational Standards, the importance of students' involvement in research activities during their studies has increased. Currently, special importance in the higher education system is given to the issues related to the organization of such work with students. Having mastered the principal educational program, graduates should be ready to carry out professional activities in the field of applied research, as well as to solve various research tasks. To do this, the graduates must have a certain set of competencies, formed in various ways and methods in the course of professional training. One of the best ways to form competencies both in the field of future profession and research activities is professionally-oriented tasks. As a rule, such tasks are offered to students starting from the first year. Gradually, the level of complexity of the tasks increases, and to solve such tasks, senior-year students need knowledge across multiple disciplines. The article presents a list of academic disciplines, whose study using various forms can train and develop various competencies, including research ones. Universities regularly involve students in research work. However, at present, an appropriate pedagogically sound system of continuous involvement of students in this work is required.

The importance of teachers' understanding of basic arithmetical and mathematical concepts has been studied by numerous research workers [2, 3, 4, 6].* The understanding teachers have of basic mathematical concepts is closely associated with the ability to present these concepts to children [10]. Considerable research has been done to show the amount of understanding of basic mathematical concepts possessed by prospective elementary school teachers. Most of these studies indicate pronounced inadequacies in teacher understanding, while a few [2, 3, 8] show that some aspects of arithmetic and mathematics are understood quite well. Few studies deal with methods and procedures for overcoming teachers' lack of understanding of these basic concepts.

Background. The professional activity of a teacher requires a wide range of skills and personal qualities including flexibility, creativity, getting adjusted to learning conditions, the ability to select an appropriate teaching methodology and assessment technique as well as compile syllabuses, educational materials, textbooks, etc. All these skills and qualities are components of pedagogical competence which is the key to professional training of prospective teachers of classical languages. Developing the above-mentioned competence requires specific training so that it fully reflects real conditions of teaching activity. Therefore, to develop pedagogical competence, the author suggests making use of project methodology with the focus on simulating real professional activities of a teacher. Purpose. The article aims at defining the concept of pedagogical competence of a classical languages teacher. It describes the competence structure, considers the project methodology in terms of its implementation in teacher training as well as develops criteria to assess the acquisition level of the competence under discussion. Results. Based on the analysis of a number of researches, pedagogical competence of a classical languages teacher is defined as a system of knowledge and skills, abilities and readiness of a prospective teacher to design and organize the process of teaching classical languages. Additionally, the competence involves assessment skills, the ability to design educational materials and motivate students to learn classical languages, be flexible and creative while addressing a variety of standard and non-standard situations in the classroom. With these concepts in mind, the author insists on project methodology underlying the process of building pedagogical competence. In particular, 7 short-term creative projects were developed to be carried out in pairs or groups. They include: Designing a syllabus (competence-based approach); Building lexical competence in classical languages; Developing grammatical competence in classical languages; Shaping linguistic and sociocultural competence in classical languages; Building competence in reading; Designing a final test; Planning a class in classical languages. The level of competence acquisition is assessed relying on the following criteria: the quality of the selected teaching materials, compliance of the materials with the curriculum requirements, arrangement of exercises and tasks, the quality of exercises, and the correlation of the language material with professional needs of the students. Discussion. In further research, we think it necessary to experimentally verify the effectiveness of the de­veloped projects for building pedagogical competence of prospective teachers as well as to model the teaching process based on experimental data.

Aim. The purpose of the study is to establish theoretical prerequisites, identify, describe and interpret the basic psychological patterns of the dynamics of figurative creativity of future teachers of the humanities both during his/ her training in the educational environment of modern pedagogical universities and at certain stages of the didactic process. Material and methods. As the methods and tools of empirical research, the author uses the procedure of analysis of the degree of statistical validity of the differences of average values of the selected empirical indicators (t-Student's criterion), the test of figurative creativity by E.P. Torrens (modified by O.E.Tunik), a survey method, an interview method, and an expert evaluation method. The respondents were first, third, and fifth-year students specialized in «Ukrainian language and literature», «English (German) language and literature», «Ukrainian country studying» with a total of 156 people aged 18 to 30 years. The empirical basis of the study was the Faculty of Philology of the State Higher Educational Institution «Donbas State Pedagogical University». Results. It is obvious that throughout the process of growing up and gaining experience in educational and professional activities, the main specific characteristics of the creative figurative act for the representatives of the natural profile of professional training are the speed of emergence and development of creative ideas, the degree of deviation from existing prototypes, the desire to avoid a possible return to them or their modification and efforts to complete and properly design their creative product. At the same time, at the background of the previously mentioned characteristics, the dynamics of the indicator of the abstractness of the name of figurative creativity gradually recedes into the background. It means that in the process of micro-age formation of figurative creativity of the humanitarian profile subject of educational and professional activity the subject’s deep essence, not its nominal side, the outer cover, which consists in the peculiarities of verbalization of this creative process, the peculiarities of self-presentation and the presentation of the final creative product are formed. Conclusions. If we summarize the dynamics of figurative creativity of a humanitarian profile student in general, then we can depict: 1) impressive are the positive changes in this area at the end of the study, on the verge of study and professional activity, which in fact can cause such a rapid and bright dynamics; 2) particular interest is in the dynamics of creativity of humanitarian profile students at the level of such nuclear characteristics of figurative creativity as the dynamics of the creative idea, the degree of its difference from stereotypes and resistance to their emergence and motivated ability to finalize the creative product. In the future, we see promising research on the dynamics of figurative creativity of students of natural, cultural, and artistic profile and a comparative study of the dynamics of figurative creativity on the indicator of the profile of professional training in higher pedagogical education.
