Criteria and levels of formation of the logical competence to design mobile computer applications

Abstract

Problem and goal. The article deals with the problem of formation of logical competence in the design of mobile applications for future teachers of informatics. From the position of the competence approach in the structure of logical competence in the design of mobile applications are allocated motivational, cognitive, activity, communicative, reflexive components. Special attention is paid to the criteria and levels of formation of logical competence of future teachers of informatics in the design of mobile applications. Methodology. To diagnose the degree of formation of logical competence in the design of mobile applications are three levels: reproductive, productive and creative. Results. Five criteria aimed at determining the degree of understanding and application of the logical-algebraic apparatus in the development of mobile applications, generating new knowledge based on the experience and the possibility of applying the experience in the professional field are formulated. The article provides an example of determining the degree of formation of logical competence for the design of mobile applications. Conclusion. Reproductive and productive levels demonstrate the ability of students to design mobile applications based on a ready-made template or instructions. Creative level is the highest level of formation of logical competence of the student, indicating the ability to create mobile applications at a professional level on the basis of experience.
