Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to describe the current method of managing the educational and cognitive activities of the future teachers in the process of general pedagogic training through the development and implementation of an original educational animation design technology. The attainment of this goal is presented in the paper in the logic of an innovative cycle, which reveals the genesis of its creation from an idea to practical approval. The authors used the following research methods: theoretical analysis, comparative analysis, ascertaining experiment, modeling, prototyping, pedagogical experiment, survey, observation, descriptive statistics. The authors describe the experience of implementing the educational animation designing technology in the process of general pedagogical training of future teachers (using the example of the Physics and Informatics program at the Belarusian State Pedagogical University named after Maxim Tank). At the end of the course, the students created original animated videos on physics as part of practical work in their pedagogy course. The potential of the developed technology as a means of managing the educational and cognitive activities of future teachers was implemented through the dominant diagnostic variable, i. e. the quality of the formed competencies in the Pedagogical systems and technologies course. As a result of the pedagogical experiment, it was confirmed that this technology allowed managing the educational and cognitive activities of modern students, helping to deal with mosaic thinking which is a specific feature of modern youth and that it was an effective technology for the general pedagogical preparation of a future teacher.
Highlights
Achievements of scientific and technological progress determined the dominance of multimedia resources among the means of information transfer
One of the distinguishing features of the educational activities of modern students is "observation instead of reflection" [1,2,3]. Taking into account this feature of information processing by modern students [4], including future teachers, we developed an educational animation design technology that allows for effective management of educational and cognitive activities of future teachers and included it in the process of their professional training, following modern requirements [3]
An ascertaining study, which included a survey of 203 future teachers, students of the Belarusian State Pedagogical University named after Maxim Tank, revealed a positive attitude to the use of educational animation design technology and readiness to master it in the educational process [5]
Summary
Achievements of scientific and technological progress determined the dominance of multimedia resources among the means of information transfer. It is important to note the fundamental difference between the cognitive processing of various types of resources: while reading texts implies a clear, ordered perception in a linear structure, the processing of rich audio-visual information resembles a wave. One of the distinguishing features of the educational activities of modern students is "observation instead of reflection" [1,2,3] Taking into account this feature of information processing by modern students [4], including future teachers, we developed an educational animation design technology that allows for effective management of educational and cognitive activities of future teachers and included it in the process of their professional training, following modern requirements [3]
