Abstract

The aim of the article is to study the rehabilitation effect of typhlo devices on the formation of the cognitive sphere of the personality of a school student with visual impairments with the help of psychological and pedagogical experiment. Materials and methods. The research was conducted as a psychological and pedagogical experiment. The following information technologies were used with the help of typhlo devices: “RUBY”; “SAPPHIRE”; “PEARL”; “TOPAZ”; “ONIX”; “SARA CE”; “PIEX TALK”; “TOUCH MEMO”; “FOCUS 40 BLUE”. Results. Significant differences in the use of typhlo devices with information technology were identified in the experimental and control groups (t=2.0-6.1; р<.01; р<.05): “RUBY”; “SAPPHIRE”; “PEARL”; “TOPAZ”; “SARA CE”; “PIEX TALK”; “FOCUS 40 BLUE”. The absence of significant differences was identified (t=1.5-1.6; р>.05): “ONIX”; “TOUCH MEMO”. It has been proved that implementing the recommended information technology increases interest in lessons, promotes cognitive activity, and enhances the school student’s creative potential. Conclusions. It was generalized that using typhlo devices during the work of school students with visual impairments allowed them to personalize their learning as much as possible, making the learning process creative and investigational.
