Determining the Level of Readiness of Teachers to Implementation of STEM-Education in Ukraine.

Research of existing models of professional development of future teachers of natural and mathematical disciplines and professional teacher has shown that the creation of an educational environment for STEM-oriented learning affects the formation and further improvement of the system of their values. In this paper, the concept of STEM-education in terms of interdiscipline is considered. An attempt was also made to identify the factors that influence the readiness of teachers to support STEM-education and implement it in educational institutions. This study is concerned with determining the level of formation of teachers' readiness for the implementation of STEM-education in Ukraine. Here we propose a methodology and a model for determining the level of readiness through surveys and analysis of results. On the basis of the obtained results, further prospects of the research are proposed and recommendations for involving young people in scientific activities, which may improve learning of Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics (STEM).
