Abstract
The article addresses a relevant scientific problem—the design and development of textbooks for the New Ukrainian School. The creation of a textbook by individual authors or author teams is preceded by the identification and substantiation of appropriate guidelines for content selection and structural organization, aimed at achieving the learning outcomes defined by the State Educational Standards. The paper substantiates and presents a system of markers for modern chemistry textbooks for basic secondary education within the framework of the New Ukrainian School reform. These markers are interpreted as functionally oriented benchmarks for selecting and presenting educational content, aligned with the goals of the natural science educational domain of the State Standard of Basic Secondary Education (2020), namely the development of key competencies, cross-cutting skills, and responsible interaction with the natural environment. The substantiation of innovative markers for chemistry textbooks in the New Ukrainian School is carried out at three levels: normative, didactic, and personal. The set of markers identified in the study includes theoretical, research-oriented, visual, methodological, digital, communicative, and assessment markers. The article provides a concise description of each marker, with particular attention to such innovative aspects as content contextualization, variability of learning scenarios, dialogic structuring of textbook components, and multidimensional learning motivation. Each marker is illustrated with examples from chemistry textbooks for grades 7–9 authored by O. Yaroshenko and T. Korshevniuk (2024–2026), which enhances the validity and practical applicability of the theoretical provisions.
