1. Informatization of education. Legislative framework.
Informatization of education is the process of providing the field of education with the methodology and practice of development and optimal use of modern information and communication technologies, focused on the implementation of psychological and pedagogical goals of education and upbringing.
The current state of informatization of education is characterized by the wide use of modern computers, new information and communication technologies, social networks and services.
2. The task of informatization of education.
The most important tasks of informatization of education are:
- Implementation of active learning methods, increasing the creative and intellectual component.
- Integration of various types of educational activities.
- Adaptation of learning technologies to the individual characteristics of students.
- The development of new learning technologies that contribute to the activation of the cognitive activity of all students, increase motivation based on the means and methods of information and communication technologies for their use in professional activities.
- Ensuring continuity and continuity in education.
- Development of educational materials for distance learning.
- Improvement of software and methodological support.
- Implementation of information technologies in the process of special professional activity of specialists of various profiles.
Among the main ways of using information technologies in education, the following can be distinguished:
Creation of information environments of educational institutions;
Creation of pedagogical software tools;
Application of information and communication technologies during projective and research training;
Use of multimedia learning tools;
Development of distance courses;
Using the Internet for the purpose of searching for information, developing software and methodological support for educational institutions, professional and psychological counseling; Creation of websites of educational institutions;
Carrying out career guidance work in educational institutions;
Development and use of control software products;
Creation of electronic libraries, media libraries, etc.
3. The main ways of using information technologies in education.
Among the main ways of using information technologies in education, the following can be distinguished: Creation of information environments of educational institutions; Creation of pedagogical software or sacramento web design tools; Application of information and communication technologies during projective and research training; Use of multimedia learning tools; Development of distance courses; The use of information technologies in the management of an educational institution; Using the Internet for the purpose of searching for information, developing software and methodological support for educational institutions, professional and psychological counseling; Creation of websites of educational institutions; Carrying out career guidance work in educational institutions; Development and use of control software products; Creation of electronic libraries, media libraries, etc.
4. Concept of information technologies.
Information technology is a set of methods and software and technical means united in a technological chain, which ensures the collection, processing, storage, distribution and display of information, with the aim of reducing the complexity of the processes of using the information resource, as well as increasing their reliability and efficiency.
5. Properties of information technologies.
Information technologies have the following properties:
the subject of processing is data;
the purpose of the process is to obtain information;
means of implementing the information process – software, software-hardware, computing complexes;
data processing processes include separate operations according to the problem area; the selection of management actions for processes is performed by decision-makers;
the criteria for optimizing the process are reliability, reliability, integrity, and timeliness of information.
6. Classification of information technologies.
It is known that information technologies have taken a significant place in all sectors of society. And according to the field of application, they can be classified differently. Let’s consider the classification of information technologies that are used in the learning process.
According to information processing technology – subject, supporting and functional information technologies.
Information technologies in distance learning – local and network information technologies.
According to the degree of use of computers in information technologies, non-computer (paper: textbooks, educational and teaching manuals; optical: dia projectors, overhead projectors, film projectors; electronic: televisions, laser disc players) and computer technologies are distinguished.
7. Concept of modern information technologies.
The term “information technology” is often used as a synonym for the term “computer technology”, but computer technology is only one of the components of information technology. In the scientific literature, this term is explained as follows – a set of means, methods and techniques for collecting, storing, processing, presenting and transmitting messages, which expands people’s knowledge and develops their capabilities for managing technical and social processes.
8. Means of modern information technologies. Hardware.
Means of modern information technologies are hardware and software tools and devices that function on the basis of computer technology, as well as modern means and systems of information exchange that provide operations for collecting, accumulating, saving, processing, and transmitting information. Their classification can be presented in the form of a scheme.
Hardware:
Electronic computing machines.
Local and global networks.
Input (output) devices.
Devices for saving large volumes of information.
Other peripheral equipment.
9. Means of modern information technologies. Software tools.
Means of modern information technologies are hardware and software tools and devices that function on the basis of computer technology, as well as modern means and systems of information exchange that provide operations for collecting, accumulating, saving, processing, and transmitting information. Their classification can be presented in the form of a scheme.
Software:
Software.
Information systems
Multimedia and hypermedia systems
Artificial intelligence systems
Software means of intercomputer communication.
10. Methods of modern information technologies.
In the scientific literature, SIT is explained as follows – a set of means, methods and techniques for collecting, storing, processing, presenting and transmitting messages, which expands people’s knowledge and develops their capabilities for managing technical and social processes.
11. Concept and purpose of modern information technologies of education.
Modern information technologies of learning are the methodology and technology of the educational process using the latest electronic learning tools, primarily electronic computing machines (computers).
12. Pedagogical tasks of modern information technologies of education.
Pedagogical tasks of SIT training:
Development of experimental and research skills;
Formation of students’ information culture.
