Application of the discovery method in the study of mathematics in high school

Abstract

The article deals with the problem of applying the discovery method in the study of mathematics at the high school level from the perspective of the formation of specific mathematics competences. An example of classroom teaching-learning is presented in the framework of studying the notion of permutations in high school, using the discovery method and the impact it had on students. It is concluded that the discovery method effectively contributes both to the formation of school competences and to increasing the interest of high school students in studying mathematics.
