The relationship between innovative and classical methods of professional orientation of teaching physics at a technical university

The introduction of two forms of conducting a laboratory workshop in physics for students for engineering and technology studies in the sphere of marine heat and power engineering, electrical equipment and automation means is considered to the process of studying at the Federal State Budget Educational Institution of Higher Education “Astrakhan State Technical University”. The possibility of developing students' working skills in natural conditions with industrial devices and an engineering approach taking into account the multifactorial conditions of the experiment as an independent work in the framework of the workshop of technical creativity Applied Physics organized at the Department of General Engineering Disciplines and Ground Transport is shown. The formation of the professional orientation of interdisciplinary connections of students of the specialty Thermal Power Engineering and Heat Engineering is illustrated by the example of the development of the laboratory work Determination of the specific heat capacity of metals. The advantages of virtual laboratory work and the possibility of their use on the educational portal of the “Astrakhan State Technical University”, built on the Moodle virtual learning environment, are examined. An example of creating a virtual laboratory work Studying the law of conservation of momentum is considered. It is theoretically proved that the introduction of these types of work into the educational process in physics contributes to the optimally effective formation of general professional competencies and the professional orientation of students' education. The importance of introducing these types of laboratory work into the educational process of physics at the university for the development of students' analytical abilities, creativity and innovation, which is a prerequisite for studying of modern engineers in demand in the labor market in a rapidly changing world, is shown.
