Abstract: The article deals with the essence and types of algorithmic skills aimed at effective independent work of future teachers of professional training in computer science and engineering. Their formation allows them to prepare specialists for work in the information society. The author adheres to the idea that algorithmic skills are a set of skills, integrated is of General educational, specialized and professional pedagogical skills of independent work of future teachers. From this follows the logic of the study. Groups of skills which are formed and realized in independent work by future teachers of professional training are defined. The possibility of representation of algorithmic skills as readiness to carry out effectively algorithmic activity is analyzed. In contrast to the conventional definition of algorithmic skills as a way of implementing algorithmic activities. Discusses related algorithmic notion of “algorithmic thinking”, “algorithmic abilities”, and “algorithmic culture” and “algorithmic competence”. It is concluded that they have a common core component-algorithmic skills, allowing us to consider them as analogical. It is assumed that the process of formation of algorithmic skills depends on a set of conditions: levels of algorithmic skills should be formed in accordance with the basic cognitive levels of independent work: reproductive, search, creative; the process of formation of algorithmic skills depends on the algorithmic complexity of the mastered knowledge and skills; convolution of algorithmic requirements for solving the problem; the intensity of pedagogical control. In this case, algorithmic activity of students will correspond to the General structure of independent work. This allows us to consider reflexive self-control as the main algorithmic ability of independent work. As a result, the essence of the concept under study was formulated and the following types of algorithmic skills were identified: organizational, cognitive-analytical, constructive-logical, reflexive-evaluative.
