Abstract

Introduction. For Ukraine, solving energy-saving problems largely determines the way out of the economic crisis. Maximum savings will make it possible to reduce dependence on countries supplying fuel and energy resources and reduce the energy intensity of national goods. The construction industry is the most energy- intensive sector in the national economy and has a significant impact on the energy intensity of the gross national product and the competitiveness of domestic goods in global markets. Reducing energy costs for the operation of buildings and structures affects the energy status of the state and the environmental parameters of the environment. Purpose. The article aims to substantiate the feasibility of using the case method in the study of energy efficiency in the construction industry in the professional training of future workers. Methods. Analysis of scientific works, normative documents, educational and methodological literature; comparison, systematization and generalization of data; empirical – observation, modelling of educational situations, interviews, and surveys were used. Results. The analysis of regulatory documents and works of scientists on energy efficiency in the construction industry is carried out; the advantages of the case method implementation by teachers in the development of students' conscious attitude to environmental problems, responsibility for the consequences of professional activity, studying the directions of improving energy efficiency in the construction industry are highlighted; attention is focused on the need to introduce new and improve existing technologies in the production of energy-intensive building materials, products and structures, development and implementation of energy efficiency in the construction industry. Originality. Substantiating the effectiveness of the development and implementation by educators of explanatory, descriptive, educational, single, test, and mini-cases in the study of energy efficiency in the construction industry in the professional training of workers. Conclusions. The use of the case method in the study of energy efficiency in the construction industry in the process of professional training of future workers makes it possible to familiarize students with the situation in the country with energy efficiency, problems and their solutions in countries around the world, and ways to improve energy efficiency in the construction industry. The results of the case method implementation should be the development of students' conscious attitude to environmental problems, responsibility for the consequences of professional activities; formation of environmental culture and environmental thinking of construction workers, promotes students' motivation, individualization and intensification of the learning process and increase its effectiveness; development of student's personal qualities, skills of independent work with educational material.
