Problem statement. The theory of inverse problems is being developed by the efforts of specialists from around the world. These are such authors as A.B. Bakushinsky, R. Burridge, Y.M. Berezansky, D.G. Berriman, A.L. Buchheim, V.V. Vasin, I.M. Gelfand, V.B. Glasko, N.B. Ilyinsky, S.G. Crane, M. Levitan, M.M. Lavrentiev, A.I. Prilepko, V.G. Romanov, A.A. Samarsky, L.N. Sretensky, V.P. Tanana, A.N. Tikhonov, L.D. Fadeev, L.A. Khalfin, A.M. Cherepashchuk, V.A. Yurko, A.G. Yagola, R. Arkangeli, Y.M. Chen, H. Cordes, A.J. Douglas, H. Engle, D.W. Fox, T. Galli, G. Gerglotz, K.V. Grouch, M. Grasselli, M. Hanke, F. Joksn, M.H. Protter, O.N. Strand, E. Wichert, N. Wiener and other specialists (see, for example, [1-10]). A teacher who conducts training sessions with students on inverse problems strives to achieve didactic learning goals. This is the formation of students’ scientific knowledge on modern methods of studying inverse problems, including both analytical and approximate methods; this is the development of students’ skills in choosing and using modern computer technologies to study inverse problems; this is the development of students’ creative mathematical abilities in solving inverse problems. Methodology. During the training sessions, the teacher strives to ensure that students gain in-depth knowledge of modern achievements of inverse problems, master not only the conceptual apparatus and methods of solving inverse problems, but also acquire in-depth knowledge in the field of applied mathematics and computational mathematics, which would allow students to effectively explore atypical applied problems (see, for example, [11-24]). In practical classes, students are invited to independently investigate model inverse problems, which involves the use of modern approaches and mathematical methods to prove the existence of solutions, their uniqueness and their stability. Students are informed that numerical methods are an effective method for studying inverse problems in cases where it is not possible to find their exact solution. It should be emphasized that the teacher in the classroom introduces students to approximate methods of studying inverse problems. It is appropriate to emphasize that such specialists in inverse problems as A.S. Alekseev, A.S. Barashkov, B.M. Budak, A.L. Bukhheim, P.N. Vabishevich, A.V. Goncharsky, V.I. Dmitriev, S.I. Kabanikhin, M.M. Lavrentiev, G.I. Marchuk, V.G. Romanov, A.N. Tikhonov, A.M. Cherepashchuk, V.G. Yakhno and other specialists develop approximate methods for solving inverse problems. Currently widely used various computer technologies allow not only to find accurate and approximate solutions to equations of mathematical physics, but also, if users wish, to display these solutions on the computer monitor screen in the form of tables, diagrams, graphs of curves and surfaces. By applying the most effective computer technologies to solve mathematical physics equations, students realize the role of computer technology in scientific research. In practical classes on inverse problems, students are taught to apply not only analytical methods, but also methods of computational mathematics. Students master such important concepts of computational mathematics as finite differences, difference scheme, grid function, approximation of partial derivatives of a function, convergence of an approximate solution of a mathematical equation. In practical classes on inverse problems, special attention is paid to computer modeling. Today, computer modeling technologies are widely used in scientific research by scientists from around the world. With the development of modern information technologies that allow mobile research of various mathematical models, computer modeling has become one of the most effective tools for understanding the surrounding reality. Currently, textbooks for students on computer modeling have been published and are available for study, the authors of which are V.D. Boev, L.A. Bulavin, T.N. Varfolomeeva, V.V. Vasiliev, L.A. Vorobeychikov, N.V. Vygornitsky, I.Yu. Efimova, N.I. Lebovka, R.V. Mayer, G.V. Ovechkin, P.V. Ovechkin, Yu.N. Pavlovsky, A.M. Rybnikova, S.V. Porshnev, L.A. Simak, G.K. Sosnovikov, R.P. Sypchenko, Yu.Yu. Tarasevich and other specialists (see, for example, [25-29]). By drawing students’ attention to computer modeling, it is possible to form new scientific knowledge in the field of mathematical modeling and computational experiment, which they had not previously studied and could only study by attending classes in special mathematical disciplines. Results and discussion. Computer technologies allow us to implement visualization of the obtained solutions of inverse problems. In computer technologies, there are convenient tools with which you can perform various mathematical calculations, perform appropriate analysis, test hypotheses and other possibilities. The use of multimedia and computer technologies by the teacher in lectures on inverse problems allows implementing a visual demonstration method of teaching. It is possible for students to demonstrate in detail and mobile all the stages of the exact or approximate solution of inverse problems, to state, if necessary, the theorems of the existence, uniqueness and stability of the solution of inverse problems, the results of the numerical solution. In laboratory classes, students learn to use computer technologies to find solutions to inverse problems, independently carrying out research activities. It is obvious that the effectiveness of students mastering scientific knowledge in the field of computer modeling is ensured, in particular, by the fact that: - a teacher who conducts classes on inverse problems has experience in the use of computer technology in the study of mathematical models based on equations of mathematical physics; - lectures, seminars and laboratory classes on inverse problems are conducted, including with the involvement of computer technology; - students whose term papers or theses are devoted to inverse problems are involved in independent scientific work on the use of computer technology to solve inverse problems. This, in turn, will allow students to form new scientific knowledge in the field of computer modeling, to master the extensive possibilities of computer modeling in the study of applied mathematical problems, which include inverse problems for differential equations. We note such possibilities of computer modeling as: - visualization of the obtained solutions of mathematical models of inverse problems for differential equations in a convenient form for studying (graphs, tables, diagrams, objects in motion, etc.); - the possibility of multiple studies of mathematical models of inverse problems with various additional information about the solution of a direct problem of the corresponding mathematical model; - conducting applied research without risk to the environment and human health, allowing further development of health-saving and environmental technologies for the implementation of applied research; - realization of the scientific and cognitive potential of mathematical models of inverse problems for differential equations; - the study of processes and phenomena in places inaccessible to humans (the bottom of the World Ocean, the deep layers of the Earth, space objects, etc.); - the possibility of studying processes and phenomena taking place in the past and future time. Students in the training sessions on inverse problems for differential equations master the main stages of computer modeling. Let’s note these stages. 1. Logical and applied analysis of the research problem. 2. Formulation of the mathematical formulation of the inverse problem. 3. Logical and applied analysis of cause-and-effect relationships of the object under study. 5. Selection or development of an approximate method by which the solution of the inverse problem will be found. 6. Implementation of this approximate method on a computer. 7. Analysis of new scientific information about the object, which is contained in the obtained approximate solution of the inverse problem. 8. Mathematical analysis of the conducted computational experiment based on computer modeling. Conclusion. Currently, the potential of computer modeling allows us to conduct applied scientific research and identify new scientific knowledge. It is obvious that specialists with scientific knowledge and experience in using computer modeling in conducting applied research in various subject areas are in demand. Therefore, students with deep knowledge of inverse problems and computer modeling will undoubtedly be in demand in research organizations after graduation.
