NATURAL PERIODIC PROCESSES IN SCHOOL SCIENCE COURSES: THE METAMETODIC ASPECTS

This article presents the history of the study of various periodic processes, related to physics and chemistry. A significant contribution to the study of oscillatory processes have made by German scientists from the 19th century. Then, the initiative passed to the scientists of other countries. For a long time it was thought that the vibrational response - it's just only a figment of the imagination. The greatest scientists have denied the possibility of their existence. Unfortunately, this was due to an incorrect interpretation of the second law of thermodynamics. The situation changed dramatically after the work of А.Zhabotinsky and his colleagues. Now, the reaction of this type is called «BG-reaction». Oscillatory movements even as physics course is replaced by natural sciences, are there proper place. This article deals with the review of different types of oscillating processes on metametodic level. Modern computer technologies allow graphic images of oscillatory processes. However, students need to make sense of the image according to mathematical calculations and try to make the right conclusions. Use the metametodic approach is the way to success. We are of the view that the task of the school is not to teach one or the other branch of knowledge, but to teach the scientific method.
