Abstract
The article presents a theoretical analysis of psychological and pedagogical literature regarding the concept «mathematical culture», different approaches to the definition of the mathematical culture and mathematical culture of teachers of mathematics are examined. The definition of the notion "culture" has been considered and interpreted as a complicated social phenomenon which is determined, first of all, by as the totality of material and spiritual values created by human society in the process of its historical development; secondly, as a characteristic of a quality status, activities and behaviour, regulatory requirements for the implementation of activities and behaviour; thirdly, as the property and the quality of a person as a subject of an activity; fourthly, as the characteristic of the level of development of personality, and the way to achieve this level. «Abilities» are understood as the properties or qualities that ensure successful implementation of any activities; the quality of the processes aimed at the formation of personal culture, which is inherent to every human being, is considered the core of abilities. Mathematical culture determines the width of the dissemination of mathematical methods in various areas of public life, reflects a active mathematical knowledge and abilities (skills) of different social groups and society as a whole and, figuratively speaking, serves as a measure of society's intellectual potential. Structural components of the mathematical culture are also considered. Mathematical culture of students of pedagogical universities is a complex system that arises as an integrative result of the interaction of cultures reflecting different aspects of person’s mathematical development: the formation of mathematical knowledge and development on their basis of corresponding skills, the degree of the development of mathematical knowledge and skills through self-education, mastering of mathematical speech and speech culture. It is noted that the formation of mathematical culture is a purposefully organized process, which is carried out during the whole period of study, the process of mastering a system of mathematical knowledge and skills; gaining of experience in mathematical, cognitive, communicative, creative, emotional, educational activities needed for successful training and education of students in accordance with their goals and tasks as well as independent mastering of new mathematical and professional knowledge and skills.
