| Abstract [eng] |
In the modern school, the use of virtual learning tools is closely linked to the development of students' cognitive competence. The educational process faces difficulties in the use and targeted application of virtual learning tools for the development of cognitive competence in primary school children. A survey was carried out to explore possible solutions, the results of which were presented at the ALTA'23 International Conference on Education. Also, the article Application of virtual tools in the development of general competences of primary school children was published in the publication of the mentioned conference. The scientific literature on virtual learning tools used in primary education and their potential for developing students' cognitive competence was analysed. The criteria for the effectiveness of the educational process were identified: pupils' progress during the planned period, differentiation and individualisation of education, pupils' motivation, and the use of available resources. The aim of this thesis is to improve the effectiveness of the use of virtual learning tools for the development of cognitive competence of primary school children in mathematics classrooms. The second section of the paper presents the methodology developed. An analysis of the suitability of virtual learning tools used in primary education is carried out. The third section of the thesis describes the designed system. It analyses the possibilities of using virtual learning tools: the needs of the learners, the choice of the most appropriate tool, the functional and non-functional requirements of the website. The website Pradinuko aruodas has been developed using the Google Sites tool. The project was developed on the website of the Žeimiai School-Multifunctional Centre, and a document proving this has been submitted (see Annex 6). A study has been carried out on the suitability of the developed methodology for the application of virtual learning tools and the system enabling its use to solve the problem. The findings show that the effectiveness of the use of virtual learning tools to develop competence in mathematics lessons for primary school children has been improved. |
