Abstract
Modern school education should provide the best conditions for realising students’ potential and reveal all the natural inclinations inherent in them. The use of technology for solving inventive problems in creative Computer Science lessons organises thinking and promotes students’ critical thinking development. Therefore, the child develops logical thinking, increases motivation to learn, and independence. This study aims to develop methodological aspects of using inventive problem-solving technology to develop students’ logical thinking in creative Computer Science lessons. The following approaches were used in the study: theoretical analysis and generalisation of scientific data on the subject matter; observation, questionnaires, testing, pedagogical experiment and methods of statistical processing of findings. In the process of research, the features of the formation of logical thinking of students in Computer Science lessons in primary school were analysed, the expediency of using techniques of technology for solving inventive problems as a means of developing logical thinking of primary school students in creative Computer Science lessons was substantiated. A system of tasks for the development of logical thinking in 8th-grade students was developed and implemented in the educational process, which allowed experimentally testing the pedagogical effectiveness of the level of formation of logical thinking and its development in 8th-grade students. The study of the level of formedness of logical thinking in 8th-grade students in such components as the level of development of the ability to analyse the conditions of the problem (the “logical problems” method) and the level of development of logical thinking (the “logical and quantitative relations” method) is carried out. The results of the pedagogical experiment confirmed the hypothesis that the development of logical thinking of 8th-grade students during creative Computer Science lessons is influenced by the technology of solving inventive problems
Highlights
The changes taking place in Ukraine and the rapid dynamic development of humanity determine the need for an individual to develop the ability to solve complex intellectual problems
This study aims to develop methodological aspects of using inventive problem-solving technology to develop students’ logical thinking in creative Computer Science lessons
The analysis of scientific and pedagogical literature on the topic showed the development of logical thinking of primary school students in Computer Science lessons contributes to the acquisition of skills to logically evaluate facts, use new experience, combining it with previously acquired ones, to solve non-standard creative problems
Summary
The changes taking place in Ukraine and the rapid dynamic development of humanity determine the need for an individual to develop the ability to solve complex intellectual problems. “today, developed logical thinking is considered as the most important condition for a student's academic performance, and as the basis for the development of his motivated activity, the ability to solve problems that arise in real life, and the ability to evaluate their activities” [1, p. The author assigns particular importance to the influence of logical thinking on the value formation of the individual, which, for its part, implies stability, imitation of certain behaviour and regulation of personality motivation [1, p. The development of logical thinking in students is becoming an increasingly urgent problem for modern society.
