Abstract
The article determines that geographic education, especially at the current stage of society’s development, is impossible without theoretical foundations and practical skills in working with cartographic sources, their analysis, and an integrated approach in the fields of application. It has been proven that competence-oriented tasks (COTs) in cartography and topography provide high-quality training for students of the first (bachelor’s) and second (master’s) levels of higher education. An own definition of the COTs of the cartographic direction is proposed. The issue of cartographic teaching aids development has been highlighted, and their conditions have been analyzed within future geography teacher training. The peculiarities of problem-solving method in cartography and topography for students of higher education institutions are revealed. A diagram of the advantages of the COTs of cartographic orientation over traditional tasks has been created according to their application stages. They are the following: life orientation, a motive that leads to a resolution, independence in decision-making and high cognitive complexity. The positive features of training results with the elements of COTs have been specified.COTs of the cartographic direction have been developed, which can be used during the mastering of the disciplines «Cartography with the Fundamental of Topography», «Methodology of Teaching Geography», and «Methodology of Teaching Geography in a Senior Specialized School» by students of higher education in Poltava V. G. Korolenko National Pedagogical University (PNPU) and Azerbaijan State Pedagogical University (ASPU). Attention is focused on the importance of the topographic map in the wartime period
