Modern Problems of Mathematics Teacher Training in Russia

The problem of qualitative changes in the training of a mathematics teacher of a secondary school in Russia is defined. In the course of the experimental psychological research we have found three crucial periods of professional development of students. Teachers should be treated at the formation of an integral system of professional-pedagogical activity: professional knowledge, founding stage, technological structure of professional activity and shaping a teacher’s personality. Conception of founding of school mathematical elements (knowledge, skills, abilities mathematical methods) presupposes development in the process of mathematical training of students. In the proposed didactic system of mathematical education of prospective mathematics teachers a fundamental role is played by a pedagogical technology of visual-model teaching of mathematics and activity of students.
