The paper reports research on computer science teachers’ readiness to develop computer didactic games and implement them into the educational process. Today’s teacher of computer science has to acquire and improve professional competencies in line with modern trends of high technological society. It is a process that we consider in the context of life-long education. The use of computer didactic games is one of the forms of innovative education, which increases the attractiveness of education, generates the development of learners’ endeavour and creativity. The authors emphasize that computer science teachers’ readiness to use computer didactic games becomes impossible without mastering the methodology of pedagogical endeavours and gaming technologies in education. By this, we mean a search for more efficient ways of achieving pedagogical goals, the ability to select computer didactic games and a search for ways of their successful realization in professional activities. Development of computer didactic games requires a computer science teacher to learn methodology and standards within this domain, and to obtain the basic knowledge of environment and skills to use in games development. Our survey revealed that the use of computer didactic games is sporadic and inadequately prioritized by the computer science teachers, who appeared to have very little knowledge in techniques aimed at their development and implementation into the educational process. The main reason is that prospective computer science teachers do not learn it sufficiently in higher educational establishments. This sphere remains underestimated by those who educate prospective computer science teachers, as well as by computer science teachers themselves. As a result, we observe a lack of knowledge in development, selection and implementation of computer didactic games. Theoretical analysis of the use of computer didactic games and their implementation into the educational process remains out of scholars’ attention, despite the issue becoming more and more attractive. The examination of computer science teachers’ readiness to develop computer didactic games and implement them into the educational process allows us to suggest ways for enhancing the level of teachers’ readiness for this training activity.

Common Content

In the article the authors substantiate the importance of establishing and using interdisciplinary connections in the training of future specialists in the field of statistics. This is due to factors such as the transition of the Ukrainian economy to the innovative way of development and the necessity of building state information infrastructure. The training of interdisciplinary specialists, who use statistics, computer science, and data science in their activities, becomes a public need. The authors argue that the modern system of higher education needs to develop innovative teaching approaches in preparing future specialists in the field of statistics, primarily natural-scientific interdisciplinary links. They promote increase of the practical, scientific and theoretical training of students, with their help the foundation for a comprehensive vision, approach and solving complex problems of real reality are laid. In the article special attention is paid to establishing links between computer science and mathematics in the training of future statisticians. The analysis of bachelor programs of various educational institutions has shown that the disciplines of the cycle of mathematical preparation are basic. Computer at various stages of these disciplines can perform functions of control, training, analysis, synthesis, etc. The future specialist should be trained in working with professional mathematical packages that may be needed for him in future professional activities. The authors also note the risk of methodically illiterate implementation of interpersonal links with the use of information technology, when the external ease of use of software tools leaves in the shadows the applied component of the course of higher mathematics. This can lead to a disturbance of dynamic balance and a decrease in the quality of education. The analysis of the problem of interdisciplinary connections shows that it is necessary to transit to updated statistics training programs, oriented to the needs of economic and social development of society. Thus, interdisciplinary links not only allow the establishment of peculiar “bridges” between educational disciplines, but also, on the basis of the common content of these disciplines, to build a holistic system of learning, which is an important condition for an integrated approach that allows to distinguish between the main elements of the content of education and interrelationships between educational subjects.

Introduction. Criteria and their indicators of levels of future computer science teachers’ readiness for professional activities are identified to determine the effectiveness of the model of future computer science teachers’ training.The purpose of the article is to substantiate the choice of criteria and indicators to characterize the levels of future computer science teachers’ readiness for profe-?sional activities. Methods. To achieve this goal, such methods as analysis and systematization of the results of scientific and pedagogical research on the future computer science teachers’ preparation of for professional activities; generalization of different approaches to the choice and substantiation of criteria and indicators of future computer science teachers’ readiness for professional activity were used. Results. To establish the level of computer science teachers’ readiness for professional activity, the following criteria have been developed. Theoretical criterion determines the formation of a system of knowledge (professional, psychological, pedagogical, methodological) about the essence of computer science teacher, where indicators are the depth and scope of students' knowledge. Technological criterion determines the presence of future computer science teachers ability to perform professional tasks necessary for productive activities in the specialty, an indicator is the level of performance of procedural actions by students. Personal criterion assumes the presence of the formation of personal qualities of the student for future pedagogical activities, where the indicators are the motivation of future professional activity and the ability to self-analysis. The corresponding indicators of computer science teachers’ readiness for professional activity characterized each of the criteria. Indicators of the theoretical criterion are "volume of knowledge" (set of facts, concepts, rules, judgments, conclusions, phenomena and processes mastered by future computer science teachers) and "depth of knowledge» (the correct ratio of the structure and elements of knowledge, understanding of the system of educational material, its most important ideas and patterns, characterizes the ability of students to use EER in cognitive and practical activities). The indicator of the technological criterion is "procedural actions" (the presence of future computer science teachers’ ability to perform professional tasks necessary for productive activities in the specialty. The indicator of the personal criterion is "motivation" (motivation to use EER) and introspection" (ability to reflect on professional activities). The originality and novelty of the work are in the development of the author's diagnostic apparatus to determine the levels of future computer science teachers’ readiness for professional activities. Conclusions. Criteria and indicators of computer science teachers’ professional readiness allow to cha-racterize the levels of readiness for professional activity. Depending on the degree of computer science teachers’ readiness, there are four levels: factual, operational, analytical-synthetic, and creative.
