Using E-Environment at Mathematics Lessons in Grade of the New Ukrainian School

Abstract

Due to the reforms that are being carried out in Ukrainian system of education the content, techniques, means and forms of teaching pupils are being updated, which directs the national system of education towards open and flexible competency-based education. In the context of the world trend in development of education, the New Ukrainian School is aimed at educational process that develops pupils’ ability to act using their experience in problem situations as opposed to just accumulating knowledge defined by the standards. One of the most significant subjects, which is learnt by pupils in grade 1, is mathematics, since mathematics is a fundamental science that combines abstract and general knowledge, it is used in all fields of knowledge, and it is a unique means of developing intellectual potential of a personality and their logical thinking. Therefore, it is important to create the proper pedagogical conditions for learning mathematics, which will increase primary school children’s interest to learning and provide development of their abilities during the educational process. One of the main innovations in the field of education is interactive teaching technologies combined with ICT. Due to the challenges posed to humanity by the Covid-19 epidemic, it is now necessary to introduce distance learning, which is possible through the creation of an e-environment in primary school. It is a powerful tool for conducting math lessons and improving the quality of education of primary school pupils. The notions of mathematics lesson in grade 1 in the NUS, distance learning, interactive technologies, e-envi ronment, virtual interactive board are analyzed in the article. Domestic and foreign experience in using information communication technologies and the Internet for teaching in a primary school has been examined. The peculiarities of using e-environment at mathematics lessons in a primary school are considered, informative resources of e-environment are defined, and the technique of using them is described, as they enable to efficiently conduct a distance mathematics lesson in grade 1 in the NUS. The author of the article demonstrates a practical use of the platform for primary school pupils Вчи.юа (Vchy.ua), the tasks of which corresponds to the Typical educational curriculum by O. Savchenko; the features of distance lesson planning based on e-environment are described.
