Modeling in solving application-oriented tasks as the basis for the formation of professional competence of future computer science and information technology teacher

Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of matters in solving applied tasks in computer science by using methods of mathematical and computer modeling. These methods allow to create an innovative approach to solving research tasks that are the basis for the development of key competencies of the future teacher of computer science. The article provides an example of building a model of “predator”-“prey”, which includes: a general description of the model, stating the problem, compilation of a mathematical model for dealing with the task, transferring a mathematical model into a computer one. Modeling in the field of dealing with applied tasks is actively used while teaching students at Lipetsk State Pedagogical University named after P.P. Semenov-Tyan-Shanskiy.
