Abstract

Urgency of the research. The term "science education" has been used in pedagogical literature for more than 120 years. In the field of Ukrainian pedagogical practice, the term is not widespread and has not have common and coordinate interpretation, nevertheless elements of science education are actively used through the organization of pupils’ research activities, and through the law "On Education". One of the most important practices of using the concept is the system of the Junior Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, which has many years of experience in this field, and for which in 2017 it received the status of UNESCO Center 2 with the strategic goal of developing science education in Eastern Europe and other countries. Target setting. Since the term "science education" is still new in Ukrainian pedagogy, we consider it necessary to generalize the existing approaches to the interpretation of this concept, and determine some commonly used terms of this pedagogical concept. Actual scientific researches and issues analysis. In the article we have been described the most cited foreign works concerning the science education terms – William F. Mccomas, Susan Carey, Rodger W. Bybee. As well as existing publications in Ukrainian publications, in particular by Yuri Hotsuliak and Maxim Halchenko, Stanislav Dovgyi, Denis Svyrydenko, Victoria Nebrat and Svitlana Babiichuk, as well as Natalia Polikhun, Irina Slipukhina, Igor Chernetskyi and Lilia Hrynevych.
