IMPROVING THE METHODOLOGY OF PREPARING STUDENTS FOR SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH THROUGH TEACHING GENERAL PROFESSIONAL SUBJECTS

Abstract

This article explores the theoretical and practical foundations for improving the methodology of preparing students for scientific research through the teaching of general professional subjects. The study emphasizes the integration of research-based learning into the educational process to develop students’ analytical, critical, and innovative thinking. The necessity of creating a methodological model that connects academic learning with research-oriented education is justified. Through the use of theoretical analysis, pedagogical observation, and practical experimentation, the paper demonstrates that introducing research components into general professional subjects enhances students’ motivation, increases their academic performance, and strengthens their ability to conduct independent inquiry. The results confirm that this approach contributes to forming a new generation of specialists who can apply scientific reasoning and innovation in professional practice.
