DEVELOPMENT OF EDUCATIONAL APPLICATIONS FOR COMPLEX SYNTACTIC ANALYSIS OF SIMPLE AND COMPOUND SENTENCE

Abstract

Paper deals with an actual development of the educational applications that aims mainly to the connection of educational activities at the universities through usage of modern technologies, iPad touchscreen tablets in particular. iPad tablets present innovative technological element and effective educational tool of direct and indirect education, allowing students to use a virtual environment that provides information in digital and multimedia form. Furthermore, tablets offer a possibility of real interaction through various animations, videos, references and other interactive elements, so they directly strengthen active knowledge acquisition and development of skills and abilities. Authors of the paper present development of a compact selection of specialized educational applications focused on the partial syntactic areas - simple sentence and hierarchical sentence structure diagram, compound and complex sentence, exercise for compound sentence analysis and its graphic description, valence syntax and exercise for grammatical sentence structure, semantic statement construction and exercise for semantic and complex sentence structure. Development activities react to the fact that partial syntax areas offer possibilities to its transition to the form of specialized educational applications focused on theoretical and practical subject matter. Nature of syntax and its core, which is based in the mastering of the complicated structure of simple and compound sentence and its graphic description, implicates possibilities for education that is based on the graphic, interaction and communication educational environment. Moreover, paper deals with the possibilities of implementation of modern technologies and innovative software in a form of applications to the direct education within the seminars. Paper also concerns its possible usage within the framework of elementary, secondary and special education. Authors? main objective is to warn of the new possibilities of virtual study environment that presents effective educational tool for exercise of complex syntactic simple and compound sentence analysis.
