Abstract

According to the latest changes, according to the Law on Preschool and School Education in Bulgaria, programming training at the high school level is implemented only as a profiled or elective school subject. This creates problems in building key digital competencies related to programming, according to the European Union’s DigComp strategic framework. Since information technology is studied at all levels of education and participates as a profile subject in many professions and profile classes as compulsory or elective modules, this discipline can be used to fill these gaps. The article examines an approach for applying block programming and robotics in elective modules in profiled IT training at the second-high school level. Solving specific practical tasks by programming the behaviour and activity of robotic devices increases the activity and motivation of students and allows them to build the key competencies necessary for their successful future professional realization as EU citizens.
