Diagnostics of the school digital educational environment orientation

Abstract

The digital educational environment has become an important part of the educational process, which has a strong influence on the forms and methods of teaching. The development of the pupil's personality is the main educational task. The orientation of the digital educational environment as a key component of the school educational process has a strong influence on the pupil’s attitude to the learning, the satisfaction with the acquired knowledge, the learning motivation, and on the future professional success. The purpose of the work is to diagnose the school digital educational environment orientation and to propose measures to strengthen its orientation towards the pupils’ personal qualities. The study involved 156 pupils and 56 teachers from two schools at the City of Ryazan. The author's questionnaire was used for diagnosing the school digital educational environment orientation. The questionnaire logic is presented in this article. The results obtained indicate that: 74 % of teachers and 72 % of pupils define the frontal form of work as the most frequently used in school; 83.3 % of teachers are confident that the proposed materials and assignments used in interaction in a digital educational environment correspond to the cognitive interests of pupils. 48.4 % of pupils believe that interaction with a teacher in an organised digital educational environment develops their cognitive interests. The results obtained make it possible to determine the necessary measures to modify the digital educational environment into a personality-oriented digital educational environment: creating conditions for self-presentation, establishing high-quality feedback in the process of performing productive type tasks, increasing the proportion of creative tasks.
