FORMATION OF STUDENTS' INTELLECTUAL ABILITIES USING THE DESIGN METHOD

Аннотация

This article is devoted to the problems of using the design method in the formation of students' intellectual abilities, and it discusses the application of this method based on programming languages. In the process of learning programming languages, great importance is attached to the development of students' logical thinking skills, problem solving, and creative approach. Keywords:intellectual abilities, design method, logical thinking. Learning programming languages plays a crucial role not only in understanding computer technologies but also in shaping students' intellectual abilities. With the development of information technologies in our time, there's a growing need to foster students' skills in logical thinking, problem-solving, and creative approaches. Therefore, it is appropriate to use the design method to develop intellectual abilities during the programming language learning process. This aims to increase students' knowledge levels and teach them how to successfully apply modern technologies. The design method is a teaching approach used for the systematic and consistent formation of students' intellectual abilities. This method aims to teach students not only to acquire information but also to apply their learned knowledge in practice. In the study of programming languages, project-based approaches are widely used to develop skills such as creating a system, solving problems, and developing algorithms. This method fosters creative thinking, a thorough approach toproblems, and the abilities oflogical analysis and synthesis in students. The capabilities ofthe project method are presented below: The problem of forming intellectual abilities and skills for students is linked to the contemporary pace of knowledge renewal and the necessity to adapt to systematic activities when working with https://ijmri.de/index.php/jmsi volume 4,issue5,2025 163 modern information technologies. This demands the importance of developing students' independent learning methods andtheirability to apply them in practice. It's advisable to select topics for laboratory, practical, seminar, and independent study sessions that facilitate the development of intellectual abilities through the core subjects of programming languages. Many pedagogical scholars have conducted research and expressed their views on the practical application of the design method. For instance, according to I. B. Barisheva, when working on projects, students learn the theoretical aspects of programming, methods for developing projects, ways to implement them, and gain experience in describing the work performed and theresultsobtained. [1] L.I.Dyatlova offers the following thoughts on this method: "...applying the project method in extracurricular activities increases interest in conducting research and practical work, and leads to the formation of skills for public defense of one's projects. All of this, in turn, helps to improvethequality ofeducation andincrease interest inthechosen specialization." [2] Programming is a means of implementing ideas and solving problems. Learning it helps students develop logical and algorithmic thinking, and cultivate skills like applying theoretical knowledge inpractice, which willbe beneficial in various aspects oftheir lives. Thestages of creating aproject, inour opinion,consist ofthe following:  Choosingaproject topic  Consideringthe project's structure (design) based onits goals and objectives  Gathering thenecessary information base  Selecting thesoftware  Implementing theproject  Analyzing theresults and makingnecessary adjustments The practical application of project-based methods in forming students' intellectual abilities involves several stages. In the first stage, students become acquainted with the fundamentals of programming and mathematical models. Then, through practical exercises, they are taught to solve various problems, which reinforces the core concepts used in programming. Finally, students are assigned to develop a program based on a project, which encourages them to work independently and apply theirknowledge inpractice. To confirm the above points, we will partially outline the stages of creating a "Matrix Calculator": 1. We'll present one version of the form window for matrix multiplication, intending to create it in C# (here, the student can use elements of their choice, including: TextBox, Label, DFataGridView, Button, etc.). 2. We'll provide a variation of the form window for matrix multiplication, assuming it will be created in C#. (Here, the student is free to use elements they prefer, such as: TextBox, Label, DataGridView, Button, and soon). https://ijmri.de/index.php/jmsi volume 4,issue5,2025 164 3. Gathering necessary information (we'll list someofthem): Theoretical information To multiply matrices, the number of columns in the first matrix must be equal to the number of rows in the second matrix. The resulting matrix will have the number of rows from the first matrix and the n
