Methodological foundations of the continuity of teaching the physics course in the "school-university" system

Abstract

Relevance. The relevance of this study lies in the fact that ensuring the continuity of education plays an important role in the modernisation of the education system in the Republic of Kazakhstan and requires a detailed study of the updated content of physics lessons in the "school-university" structure. Purpose. The primary aim is to analyze the methodological foundations for ensuring continuity in physics education within the "school-university" system in Kazakhstan. This involves examining the educational standards and practices at both school and university levels to identify and implement effective methods for seamless educational progression. Methodology. The methodological basis of this study was formed by psychological, philosophical and pedagogical concepts of cognition of the educational process, and methodological foundations of physics and definitions of didactics, achievements and directions of theory and teaching methods of the modern physics course. Results. The study reveals a need for methodological adjustments in teaching physics to ensure a coherent educational trajectory from school to university. Key findings include the significance of developing educational programs that foster scientific thinking, adapt to students' physiological development, and incorporate modern technological advancements. The analysis also underscores the importance of interdisciplinary integration and the cultivation of critical thinking and problem-solving skills among students. Conclusions. The materials of this article can be used by teachers of universities of the Republic of Kazakhstan to prepare materials for teaching physics. The presented material may also be of interest to students in the direction of "Natural science disciplines" during preparation for seminars and practical classes that are preparing to teach physics as a science in the future.
