Abstract

FIELD: teaching.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to methods for illustrative testing of preschool children in a game form. It is intended to increase the effectiveness of teaching and assessment of the perception of information material by young children. Effective result is achieved by the fact that training is conducted in an interactive environment, formed by a software and hardware complex containing a video camera, system of scoring and means of information display, through which the trained person is presented with visual-information images for recognition. Peculiarity is that the software and hardware complex containing two or more interactive boards installed along the perimeter of the playing area at a given distance from its center, form a predetermined number of mobile and / or stationary visual-information images. At the same time, each of the visual-information images is a correct or incorrect version of the answer to the corresponding question, which is set by the system to be scanned for the complex simultaneously with the projection of visual information on interactive whiteboards or an image that requires painting and / or adjustment is formed. Task of the trainee is after listening to and evaluating the question to perform moves on the playing field and touch the interactive whiteboard with a visual-information image, which he considers to be the right answer. In this case, a video camera installed above the playing field fixes the movements of the trainee and transmits the data about its location to the software and hardware complex for video analysis, automatic processing of statistical data and generating an audio or light signal – indicating the correctness of the student's response and / or changing the image on the interactive whiteboard and continuing the test. To provide the trainee with an additional physical load, the program of the complex is set, which moves through the given time intervals information-visual images with answers on different interactive boards, depending on the actions, direction and speed of the trainee's movement.

Description

The invention relates to methods for illustrative testing of preschool children in a playful way. It is intended to increase the effectiveness of training and assess the assimilation of informational material by young children. At the same time, it can be used in teaching other age groups, including persons with disabilities. In particular, the method can be used using multimedia tools that form the sound range and visual images in the lessons of a foreign language at an early stage of training.

Hypodynamia is one of the most acute problems in the modern world. In recent years, there has been a significant qualitative deterioration in the health of the population, especially for schoolchildren. Every second schoolchild has a combination of several chronic diseases [1].

Currently, children's institutions and schools are focused on the use of a variety of traditional forms and types of physical education activities to organize a healthy lifestyle for a child. At the same time, there is a need to master modern innovative technologies for maintaining health, maintaining health, preventing overwork and preventing diseases of children. According to experts, special attention should be paid to the technologies of comprehensive education for young children.

To increase the effectiveness of the pedagogical process when working with children of a younger age group, it is important to give learning an emotional and playful character. Games for children are fun, they develop activity and competitiveness. The more versatile games and game exercises used in childhood, the richer the child's motor experience becomes.

The problem of teacher receiving feedback in early learning is quite acute. Children of 5-6 years old have not yet developed reading and writing skills, which means that the tasks they offer cannot contain words, sentences, or text. From this it follows that one of the few ways to diagnose the level of skill formation in older preschoolers is the use of illustrations [2]. Obviously, an illustrative test may be the most effective control method used for older preschoolers.

All of the above briefly reveals the problems and determines the relevance of creating technologies for effective learning and assessing the knowledge of the child in a harmoniously developing environment.

The level of technology. Known interactive whiteboards, which are widely used in kindergartens, schools and other educational institutions [2]. The whiteboard is a large touch screen that works as part of a system that also includes a computer and a projector. Using a projector, the image of the computer desktop is projected onto the surface of the interactive whiteboard. In this case, the board acts as a screen. You can work with the image projected onto the board, make changes and markings. All changes are written to the appropriate files on the computer, can be saved and subsequently edited or copied to removable media. In this case, the electronic board acts as an input device. The board can be controlled both with the help of a special stylus and with the touch of a finger. It depends on what technologies were used in the manufacture of the board. The connection between the whiteboard and the computer is two-way, and the finger or pen (stylus, pen) of the interactive whiteboard works like a mouse.

However, the traditional modes of using the interactive whiteboard do not solve the problems of physical inactivity.

According to the patent [4], an interactive method of teaching young children is known, where children are tested in a game form on a site of a given size, onto which visual information images are projected using a hardware-software complex. At the same time, training is carried out with recognition of visual-informational images in an interactive environment formed by a hardware-software complex containing a lighting system, a video camera, a computer and a sound system. On the playing field, at a given distance from each other, a predetermined number of mobile and / or stationary visual-informational images located at the distances specified by the program of the complex from the student located on the playing field is formed. Moreover, each of the visual-informational images is the right or wrong answer to the corresponding question, which is asked to the learner by the sound system of the complex simultaneously with the projection of the visual-informational images on the playing field. The student’s task is to, after listening to and evaluating the question, move around the playing field to the area of the visual-informational image, which he considers to be the correct answer. At the same time, a video camera installed above the playing field captures the learner’s movements and transmits data on his location to the software and hardware complex for video analysis, automatic processing of statistical data and generation of an audio or light conditional signal — indicating the correct response of the learner and / or changing video content on the game field and continue the test. To present the student with additional physical load, a complex program is set up that generates mobile information-visual images that move away from the student within the playing field with a given maximum speed, depending on the actions, direction and speed of the learner.

However, the technical means used in this method are not yet mass produced and therefore they are expensive, often not available to the general consumer. However, it is difficult to form contrasting images over a large area in bright daylight.

The technical result to which the claimed invention is directed is to increase the efficiency of teaching methods, reduce the cost of creating an interactive controlled environment for testing a child in outdoor games.

The technical result is achieved by the fact that the training is carried out in an interactive environment formed by a software and hardware complex containing a video camera, a sound system and information display means, with the help of which a trained person is presented with visual information images for recognition. Moreover, it is new that a hardware-software complex containing two or more interactive whiteboards installed around the perimeter of the playing area at a given distance from its center forms a given number of mobile and / or stationary visual-information images.

Moreover, each of the visual-informational images is the right or wrong answer to the corresponding question, which is asked by the learner of the sound system of the complex at the same time as the projection of the visual-informational systems on interactive whiteboards or an image is formed that requires additional painting and / or adjustment.

The student’s task is to listen to and evaluate the question to move around the playing field and touch the interactive whiteboard with a visual-informational image, which he considers to be the correct answer.

At the same time, a video camera installed above the playing field captures the learner’s movements and transmits data on his location to the software and hardware complex for video analysis, automatic processing of statistical data and generation of an audio or light conditional signal — indicating the correct response of the learner and / or changing the image on the interactive whiteboard and continuing the test.

To present the student with additional physical load, a complex program is set that moves information and visual images with answers on different interactive whiteboards at predetermined time intervals, depending on the actions, direction and speed of the learner.

This is the totality of essential features that provides a technical result in all cases to which the requested amount of legal protection applies.

The analysis of the prior art by the applicant, including a search by patent and scientific and technical sources of information, allowed to establish that the applicant did not find an analogue characterized by features identical to all the essential features of the claimed invention. Therefore, the claimed invention meets the condition of "novelty."

To verify the conformity of the claimed invention, the conditions of "inventive step", the applicant conducted an additional search for known solutions to identify signs that match the distinctive features of the claimed method. The search results showed that the claimed invention does not follow explicitly from the prior art and has a significant inventive step. Therefore, the claimed method meets the condition of "inventive step".

The technical nature of the solution is confirmed by the presence of a technical result obtained in the implementation of this invention. The proposed method for the first time indicates the path and the complex of technical, software tools by which the task can be solved.

The proposed method is as follows. On the playground there is a software and hardware complex that includes technical means that allow you to control the movements of the test person and form a predetermined number of interactive boards around the playing field on which visual information images are displayed. To the test subject who is on the playground, through the speakerphone system or through individual headphones included in the hardware and software complex, the question is voiced according to the selected program from the program library. Then they project one visual-informational image onto each interactive whiteboard at the same time - an illustration of the question: symbols, drawings, diagrams or photographs. One of the illustrations is the correct answer to the question.

The subject’s task is, after listening to and evaluating the question, to carry out his movement along the playground to the interactive whiteboard with an information-visual image, which, in his opinion, is the correct answer. The physical load on the test subject is regulated programmatically by the magnitude of the path to the image, the speed of switching images on different boards.

The video monitoring system records all actions and movements of the test subject and transmits data on his whereabouts to the hardware and software system for video analysis, automatic data processing and generating an audio or light conditional signal - indicating the correct response of the learner and / or changing the video content on the boards, stopping or continuing the game test.

The testing process is stopped by a special sound or light signal, or by turning off the images on the boards. The hardware-software complex forms a database based on the results of tests carried out at different times. These data are the basis for the analysis of the subject's knowledge and the adjustment of his training.

An example of the implementation of this method. In the kindergarten, in the lesson of studying the color palette, the teacher invites to the center of the playground, along the perimeter of which there are three interactive whiteboards, one of the children, and launches the corresponding program of the hardware-software complex.

The hardware-software complex projects three colored spots in the form of a flower onto the boards: yellow, green, red and at the same time sounds from the complex’s dynamics: “Let's shade the red flower”. After the child begins to move toward the red flower, the complex, exercising control over the actions of the child, evaluates its accuracy of movements, switches the red flower to another board, forcing the child to change the direction of movement. Upon presentation of a sufficient game load, the child is given the opportunity to touch the board and shade, paint the outline of the red flower in red.

At an English lesson, the question voiced was: “Where is a cat? (Where is the cat?) ”And simultaneously projecting images of several animals, including the cat, you can also find out if the child understands the meaning of this speech pattern and the lexical unit.

The teacher evaluates the quality of assimilation and understanding of the information material in question by the number of correct answers. As children learn new material, the game becomes more complex and mutated.

It should be noted that in the implementation of the proposed method, well-known technical means can be used, well-known or original software and tools for visualizing objects can be used for the operation of the hardware-software complex. The modern level of technology allows creating light emitters with a wide variety of combinations of light symbols, letters, numbers and other visual information images. This allows you to implement multivariate modes of the proposed testing method.

The present invention is not limited to the embodiments above. Those skilled in the art will understand what various modifications, combinations, partial combinations and substitutions can be made with part or all of the components within the technical scope and equivalents of the present invention.

The set of techniques and the order of practical actions in this invention ensures the achievement of the claimed technical result - increasing the efficiency of testing a child and evaluating the assimilation of information material by him due to the capabilities of information technology, a metered increase in the motor activity of the child and a favorable emotional background. The invention allows to create conditions that have a pedagogical and methodological advantage in comparison with known methods of training. In this method, the intellectual load on the child when testing his knowledge is combined with semantic movement and dosed physical activity.

The inventive method of testing allows you to give the pedagogical process an emotional and playful character in which children are liberated, not shy and take the initiative, and this allows them to quickly and efficiently reveal their potential and level of preparedness. The proposed method helps to maintain the physical fitness of the child and is an effective means of preventing physical inactivity. The method can be effectively used when conducting physical breaks during classical lessons in kindergartens, schools and other specialized institutions, as well as in the home environment. This method expands the arsenal of teaching aids and makes it possible to organize, on a qualitatively new level, an illustrated testing of preschool child knowledge. Comparing the results of indicators of different tests, you can effectively assess the dynamics of the development of the child.

Thus, the claimed interactive method of illustrative testing of knowledge of preschoolers allows you to create technically artificially controlled external environment in which it is possible to effectively test children with conditions and data that were previously unavailable.
