Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Given the current requirements for teaching internship, the issue of improving bachelor's preparation for math teachers may be considered relevant. Thus, the purpose of this research is to analyze the process of preparing bachelors majoring in math teaching within the system of higher education in the Republic of Kazakhstan. The existence of various programs and special courses on math teaching points to a high significance of specialist training for the current education system in Kazakhstan. Various advanced courses on math teaching were mainly aimed at improving the students’ results in final assessment in mathematics, as well as at developing their skills through teaching internships. A comparison we were made between modern teaching internship and the relevant experience in the 20th century. The students of Karaganda E.A. Buketov State University were offered to answer the questionnaire – the science and math test. Their answers were used as a basis for our analysis and conclusions. The share of students who have successfully completed educational programs in science and mathematics was 80%. The materials of this article can serve as a basis for further researches on the elaboration of industrial and teaching internship programs for various fields of bachelor’s preparation.
