FEATURES OF TEACHING THE THEORY OF LIMITS IN SCHOOL MATHEMATICS

Abstract

The modern requirement of society is to prepare a conscious, educated, competitive, striving for development and able to express their thoughts freely, which is a great task for a teacher. That is, in accordance with the requirements of modern society, we need to become teachers who not only educate young people, developing their interest in self-learning and development, but also focus on learning and education.

In general, most schoolchildren currently have no significant understanding of the basic concepts of mathematical analysis, which is studied only as a separate chapter in a mathematics course, as well as methods for effectively solving problems in this area.

In the first half of the 19th century, the outstanding mathematician M.V. Ostrogradsky was the first to raise the issue of introducing elements of mathematical analysis and some concepts of this subject into the school curriculum. In his work, the author criticizes the approach in which the true meaning of mathematical analysis is not fully explained to students, and the form of teaching the connection of the subject with practice leaves much to be desired.
