Theoretical and methodical aspects of the organization of students’ independent study activities together with the use of ICT and tools

Abstract

In the article the possibilities and classification of ICTs and tools that can be used in organizing students’ independent study activities of higher education institutions has been explored.It is determined the students’ independent study activities is individual, group, collective activity and is implemented within the process of education under the condition of no pedagogy’s direct involvement. It complies with the requirements of the curriculum and syllabus and is aimed at students’ acquisition of some social experiences in line with the learning objectives of vocational training.The analysis of the latest information and technological approaches to the organization of students’ independent study activities made it possible to determine the means of realization of the leading forms of organization for this activity (independent and research work, lectures, consultations and non-formal education), to characterize and classify the ICTs and tools that support presentation of teaching materials, electronic communication, mastering of learning material, monitoring of students’ learning and cognitive activity, such as ones that serve for the sake of development and support of automated training courses, systems of remote virtual education with elements of artificial intelligence, which implement the principle of adaptive management of learning and the organization of students’ independent study activities. The paper provides the insight into the essence of the conducted investigation on the assesses of the effectiveness of ICTs and tools in the process of organizing students’ independent study activities.

Enhancing out-of-class independent learning in a cloud-based information and communication learning environment: insights from students of a pedagogical university

“…On the basis of the analysis of psychological and pedagogical scientific works, it has been established that independent work of students is a multi-faceted concept and involves various aspects of its research: as a teaching method (Bondarevskii [10], Buriak [12], Kobyliatckii [27], Ruvinskii [56], etc. ); as a type of activity (Bortkevich [11], Kasianenko [25], Kozakov [32], Lavrentieva et al [34], Nilson [48], Nizamov [49], Okhrymovych, Shved and Hrebenyk [50], Semanov [57], Skakun [62], etc. ); as a form of organization of the educational process (Esipov [17], Graf, Iliasov and Liaudis [21], Liaudis [35], Molibog [44], etc.…”

Computer-oriented management of students' educational activity in informatics practicum

“…Lavrentieva et al [17] explored new methods for organizing students' independent study activities in conjunction with the use of ICT and tools. Velychko and Shulga [26] proposed computer-based tools to support students' independent experimental activities in the study of quantum physics, providing assistance in instrument setup, measurements, and results processing.…”
