The use of the DER allows you to create visual aids with a minimum amount of time and, as a
result, increase the clarity
and excitement of the lesson, visualize the lesson with the help of
multimedia elements, which, unlike posters, can be adjusted as needed. Equally important is the fact
that such visual aids are stored in electronic form and do not require much space in laboratory
rooms. In addition, the lesson can be held not only in a specially equipped classroom, but also in
any other room where you can deploy a screen and video projection
equipment with a computer
(laptop).
When using multimedia materials on CDs, we rely on the basic scientific and methodological
principles: communication, visibility, individualization. In addition, the interactive control tests and
simulators with a system of reactions to an incorrect answer included in the electronic teaching aids
(prompts, leading questions, hyperlinks to the reference part of the manuals, individual
recommendations) allow you to analyze the level of mastering various topics and school courses in
general.
The use of DER in pedagogical activity enables the teacher to:
• present the material more clearly, in less time, with greater understanding on the part of the
students;
• find basic and additional materials for lessons or an elective course;
• save time for speech practice;
• organize individual, group and
frontal work with the class, simplify the control of the
educational activities of students;
• to interest students, increase their motivation, involve them in the creative learning process,
increase the speed and reliability of assimilation of knowledge.
Electronic study guides help students:
• develop systems thinking, learn to analyze, compare and generalize facts;
• master the skills of working with large amounts of information, searching for information
and its competent use;
•
independently study, consolidate and repeat the passed material;
• acquire computer skills;
• thoroughly prepare for the exam.
Steps when working with discs in English lessons:
1. Introductory speech of the teacher on the topic of the disc.
2. Preliminary work with vocabulary.
3. Independent work with the disc.
4. Discussion of the covered material (speaking practice).
At the first stage, the teacher introduces the topic of the disc, its structure and content,
explains the sequence of work. At the second stage, tasks are performed aimed at practicing basic
words and expressions, for example,
key words are explained, synonyms and antonyms are
selected; a translation into English is given; work is carried out with adapted mini-texts (reading
them, translating them into their native language, answering questions, inserting missing words,
etc.); tasks on word formation are performed (the formation of various parts of speech,
complex
words, finding related words in a row of words, etc.) At the third stage, students work
independently with a disk. At the fourth stage, the material of the disc, its content, the main issues
raised in it are discussed, mini-disputes are arranged on the topics covered. Thus, working with
multimedia materials contributes to a deeper assimilation of the English language by students, since
CDs are authentic, relevant,
use all types of visualization, provide an opportunity for independent
work in a computer class, help the development of monologue and dialogical speech.
In conclusion, I would like to note that the full-fledged implementation of ELC and DER with
their integration into the educational process allows concisely supplementing and combining
traditional teaching methods with new ones using information technologies, applying an individual
approach, developing the linguistic abilities of students and objectively assessing the quality of
knowledge of each child.
