The use of multimedia technologies in robotics lessons as the development of cognitive activity

Abstract

In the environment of educational robotics, the introduction of new pedagogical technologies is
relevant. Robotics is at the junction of promising fields of knowledge: mechanics, electronics, automation,
assembly, programming, circuit engineering and technical design. The purpose of the article is to
analyze the methodology of teaching the basics of robotics using multimedia technologies at each stage
of education and the use of multimedia software in the classroom. The authors of the article have developed
Digital educational resources for the study of robotics. These resources are an auxiliary tool for the
diversity of the lesson. With the help of this software product, robotics training becomes more accessible
and convenient. Multimedia allows you to combine verbal and visual-sensory information, which helps
to increase the motivation of students, create certain learning parameters and develop cognitive activity.
When organizing educational material, the teacher should focus on the activation of cognitive activity
of students. In the classroom, not all students turn on active cognitive activity. Active teaching methods
are used to purposefully influence this activity. The very name contains the essence of the active
method – it is not simple memorization, but the active intellectual activity of students.
The result of scientific and methodological research was the design and development, approbation
of the DER with the help of which it becomes possible to conduct lessons using multimedia technologies.
Key words: educational robotics, multimedia technologies, cognitive activity, digital educational
resources.
