Abstract
The organization of circle work and the formation of pupils’ mathematical competence as a means of increasing learning efficiency are urgent problems of mathematical education in Ukraine. The article characterizes pupil circle as one of the most important forms of extracurricular work, it defines the tasks of mathematical circle. They are strengthening, enrichment and deepening of knowledge acquired in the process of learning, their application in practice, expansion of the general eyesight, formation of a scientific outlook, development of self-education skills, physical and aesthetic education, development of pupils’ individual creative abilities and inclination, organization of leisure, etc. It is given the characteristic of the functions of exact disciplines circle in particular educational, developing, heuristic, prognostic, aesthetic, practical, informative, corrective ones. The content of the circle work at school is analyzed; it is pointed to the pedagogical toolkit used in circles. Pupils are introduced to some facts of the history of mathematics, interesting solutions to known problems and to the unresolved problems of mathematics to expand their outlook. Causing interest in the subject mathematical circles further the outlook expansion, development of pupils’ creative abilities, skills of independent work and thus improving the quality of mathematical preparation of pupils. Circle work in mathematics is closely connected with the general educational process of teaching mathematics, complex process of influence on schoolchildren’s consciousness and behavior, deepening and expanding their knowledge and skills, the content of the mathematics and the entire activity of the teacher in conjunction with the various activities of pupils. The concept of mathematical competence is revealed. The pupil’s competence in mathematics is primarily a sign of the high quality of his educational skills, the ability to establish connections between the acquired mathematical knowledge and the real situation, theability to find a method of problem solution and successfully use his skills, formed during the study of mathematics as a discipline. Teaching of mathematics should be aimed at providing pupils with the development of such procedures as generalization, comparison, concretization, abstraction, analysis and synthesis. Such tasks and the beauty of their solutions cultivate a good taste, a mathematical culture. Summarizing the material of our article, we conclude that in the process of engaging pupils to mathematical circles at educational establishments their intellectual abilities and creative activity are developed and realized during their search and research activities; the character traits and creative intelligence are improved; creative consciousness is formed that manifests itself in self-knowledge, self-evaluation, self-organization, the desire for self-realization and self-improvement. The continuous growth of personal potential also continues to the matter, it is the desire to acquire new knowledge and certain skills in a systematic way, to use them creatively, to explore, to experiment, etc.
