Abstract

Introduction. Teachers who use a set of pedagogical technologies presented in modern didactics in their practice tend to use them intuitively, without referring to well-founded checks of their effectiveness and safety. This fact highlights the relevance of the evidence-based approach in education, which is widely represented in foreign studies of educational practice and is just beginning to take shape in the scientific and educational space of our country. Methodology. The research is based on a reflective analysis of foreign and domestic publications characterizing the meaningful meanings of the formation, development and application of an evidence-based approach in the process of solving scientific and practical problems in various fields of knowledge, including in the educational field during the formation of professional competencies of chemistry teachers. Discussion. Evidence-based education is an approach to educational processes that uses methods based on reliable evidence obtained experimentally in scientific research. The evidence-based approach is currently widely used in the foreign educational field (J. Hattie et al.) and is beginning to be used in the system of training and advanced training of Russian teachers. At the same time, a kind of reference point for the implementation of the ideas of the evidence-based approach in educational processes is the Standard of Evidence-Based Practices in the Field of Childhood, developed as part of the implementation of the state program “The Decade of Childhood” (2018), which is focused on identifying social (including educational) practices with proven effectiveness. Conclusion. The unified federal system of scientific and methodological support for teachers and managers, which has been created and is being developed in Russia, is aimed at continuous improvement of the professional skills of teachers and managers. It is likely that one of the main drivers of the implementation of the ideas of evidence-based education in the field of chemistry is the professional pedagogical communities (the All-Russian Public Organization of Teachers and Lecturers of Chemistry and its regional branches, which are represented in almost all regions of the Russian Federation).
