THE ROLE OF NEW PEDAGOGICAL TECHNOLOGIES IN TEACHING THE “THE WORLD AROUND US” SUBJECT IN PRIMARY GRADES

Аннотация

Technology is a combination of theGreek words techno (art, craft, science) and logos (concept, teaching). With the help of technologies, intellectual information is translated into the language of practical solutions. Technology is both a method of activity and human participation in that activity. Modern technologies in education are considered a means of implementing the new educational paradigm. Trends in the development of educational technologies are directly related to the humanization of education, which helps individuals understand and become aware of themselves. The term "educational technologies" offers more potential than "teaching technologies" as it also encompasses the educational aspect related to shaping and developing students’ personal qualities. Keywords: technology, pedagogy, communication, methodology, didactics, cognitive activity, multimedia. In general, technology is the structured integration of the "how" and "in what way" into a well- thought-out system aimed at achieving aparticular type ofproduct orits component. Pedagogical technologies represent a complex system of perfect methods and techniques combined with forms and ways of organizing the learning process. In this system, each component influences theothers, creating specific conditions for studentdevelopment. The relevance of modern information and communication technologies (ICT) has increased with the integration of computers connected to local and global networks into the educational process. In primary education, the use of ICT enhances students’ cognitive and intellectual activity. According to the UNESCO definition, ICT is a set of interrelated scientific, technological, and engineering disciplines that study effective ways of organizing the labor of people engaged in processing and storing information. It includes computer technologies, methods of organizing human and machine interaction, and their practical applications across social, economic, and cultural issues. ICT is not limited to the use of computers in the educational process—it refers broadly to any process related to information processing. We understand ICT as a set of tools and methods for collecting, processing, and transmitting data to obtain new, high-quality information about an object, process, orphenomenon (information product). In recent years, computers and ICT based on them have undergone significant changes. Advancements in basic computing components have improved not only their use in education page209 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ISSN:2692-5206,ImpactFactor:12,23 AmericanAcademicpublishers,volume05,issue06,2025 Journal: https://www.academicpublishers.org/journals/index.php/ijai but also their reliability, accuracy, speed, and the expansion of their functions beyond mere calculations. They nowhandlecomplex, logical, heuristic, and even creative tasks. Numerous examples confirm the effectiveness of using computers at all stages of the pedagogical process:  During thepresentation ofeducational material tostudents;  In theinteractivelearning process with computers;  At thestage of revising and reinforcing acquired knowledge (skills and competencies);  During intermediate and final assessments and self-monitoring;  During correction of both the learning process and its outcomes byadjusting theamount, classification, and systematizationof educational material. All these features, having didactic and methodological significance, are undeniable. Rationally developed computer-based learning programs not only reflect the specific characteristics of educational content but also consider the psychological and pedagogical principles of knowledge acquisition by specific student groups. They allow the personalization and differentiationof learning processes, encouraging students' cognitive activity and independence. Thus, the emergence of the term "information and communication technologies" is closely linked with the advent of computers and their broad introduction into education. ICT includes: programmed learning, intelligent learning systems, expert systems, hypertext and multimedia, microworlds, simulation-based learning, and presentations. These specific methods are used depending on educational goals and contexts—sometimes to better understand student needs, othertimes toanalyze subject knowledge, orto consider psychological factors. ICT not only transforms forms and methods of instruction but also significantly alters and enriches educational paradigms. “New media literacy” includes navigating information flows in multimediaenvironments and developing theability tocreate hypermedia objects. Amodern student must learn toread and writein relation to theglobal information space. When using ICT in the classroom, the teacher must strive to develop all aspects of the child’s personality—cognitive, moral, creative, communicative, and aesthetic. To effectively realize thesepotentials, bothteachers and students need pedagogical compet
