Abstract

The article deals with the existing methodical systems of learning computer architecture by students of engineering and pedagogical specialty with the use of information and computer technologies and means of simulation modeling. The analysis of these methods revealed the advantages and disadvantages of each methodological system. The identified problem of perception and understanding of physical processes by applicants for higher education which are taking place in the electronic elements of microprocessor systems and their parallelism and transience determined the development of a model of the content of learning the architecture of microprocessors with use of simulation computer modeling. The authors of the article develop and study the system of skills in the architecture of microprocessor mechanisms and the system of knowledge of the course "Architecture of Microprocessors" according to the current State Standard of Higher Education of Ukraine. A detailed analysis of methodological systems of learning computer architecture by students of engineering and pedagogical specialty allowed developing a general model of the content of learning architecture of microprocessor mechanisms that corresponds to the goals set by State Standard of Higher Education. The presented general model of the content of learning architecture of microprocessor mechanisms consists of 6 modules: module 1 – History of computer mechanisms development; module 2 – Calculation systems; module 3 – Logical foundations of computers; module 4 – Computer structure; module 5 – Microprocessors; module 6 – Assembler programming language. These modules provide solutions to an independent group of problems and are integral units of information and logically complete parts of the real process of learning the architecture of microprocessors. Thus, to increase the activity of learning, it is advisable to select and use a variety of learning methods adequate to each educational topic. Key words: computer architecture, information and computer technologies, electronic elements of microprocessor systems, methodological systems, system of skills, system of knowledge, general model of the content of learning.
