Abstract: Studying programming takes an important place in subject training of the future IT-specialist. In the course of study of programming, the students get the idea about the technology of software creation. However, studying programming has a strongly pronounced developing and world outlook value. Learning modern languages and programming technologies contributes to the formation of a particular style of thinking, namely the operational, algorithmic and object-oriented one. Training in programming affects the formation of the scientific world outlook of the future IT-specialist. Students should form a conception about the possibility of a dual view of the surrounding reality – in terms of processes (structured programming) and in terms of objects (object-oriented programming). The article suggests methodological recommendations for training students for the best realization of the worldview function of the course of programming. It is recommended to start training with object-oriented programming languages, to begin solving any teaching task with construction of an object model of its subject area, to analyze the history of programming languages, to consider the methodology of object-oriented programming (basic ideas and principles), and to use both visual and non-visual SDKs. So, structural programming and object-oriented programming are the two tools of modeling the world in general and the subject area of the problem, which is being solved, in particular.
