OPPORTUNITIES OF IT-TECHNOLOGIES FOR THE EDUCATIONAL PROCESS IN PRIMARY SCHOOLS

XXI century - the era of the information society. The need for new knowledge, information literacy, ability to independently acquire knowledge has contributed to a new kind of education - innovation, in which the information technologies have to play a backbone and integral role.

Elementary School – is the foundation on which the quality of further education of the child depends, and this imposes a special responsibility on the elementary school teacher. For a long time the primary school was a "school of skills" in the educational system i.e. considered as the level of education, where the student should master basic skills such as reading, writing, arithmetic for further education. Today, the primary school is viewed from a different perspective. Today it has to become a child's first experience in the educational system - a place to apply own educational experience. At this stage it is important to develop the activity, independence, preserve cognitive activity and to create conditions for the harmonious joining of the child to the educational world, maintain their health and emotional well being. These qualities of students are developing with the introduction of new information technologies in the educational process [1].

The concept of "New Information Technologies" in elementary school should not be understood as "basics of computer science" adapted for elementary school but as the complex transformation of "habitat" of a student.

The eminent philosopher of the XX century Bertrand Russell said: "If you do not think about your future, you don’t have it ...". Our future – is our children. It turns out that the children in order to adopt the knowledge firmly and avoid the peak fatigue from lessons in our intensive information age, have to be fully ready for the perception of knowledge. Formation of the younger generation is going on in the rapidly changing world. Along with the newly evolving culture of new social relations, information culture is becoming an important part of today's education of a human, which is based on modern innovation processes. The new requirements of modern life are becoming more obvious, it is the ability to use the educational information, find it, perceive and analyze.

One great teacher K. Ushinskiy said: "Children's Nature clearly requires clarity. Teach a child some five unknown to him words, and he will suffer over them for a long time, but associate twenty such words with the pictures - and the child will learn them on the fly ... ". Today, information technologies actively burst into our lives, covering new areas.

Computer in the process of teaching younger students should play a role of enriching and transforming element of the developing subject environment. Because in this age there is intense brain development of the child, and the foundation of his future intellectual development is laid [2].

The computer generates the skills of an efficient memorization of material.

Students easily remember difficult material with help of charts and tables, that concisely and clearly show it.

In order to make students actively involved in the learning process, rather than being just passive spectators, it is possible to use a method of projects in the work.

Proper use of the capabilities of modern information technology in primary schools promotes:

- enhance the cognitive activity, improve the qualitative performance of schoolchildren;

- the achievement of learning objectives with the help of modern electronic educational materials designed for use in the classroom in an elementary school;

- develop skills of self-education and self-control among younger schoolchildren, increase the comfort level of education;

- Reducing the didactic difficulties of students;

- increase in the activity and initiative of the junior schoolchildren in the classroom, development of information thinking, the formation of information and communication competence;

- acquisition of computer skills of primary school students in compliance with safety regulations.

The role of the teacher in the classroom using ICT changes, a teacher is now not only a source of knowledge, but also the manager of the learning process, the main tasks of the teacher are: management of student cognitive activity.

Lessons with the use of information technology are interesting not only for children, but for teacher as well. They provide an opportunity for self-development of both teacher and student.

In elementary school, there is a change of the leading activity of a child from game to study. Education in the game – isn’t this something all the children dream about? At these classes the fear of doing mistakes disappears, the anxiety and unwarranted worries reduce, thereby creating the necessary conditions for intellectual and successful flow of the educational process.

With the help of multimedia lessons the general education task of forming ICT skills of junior students is solved [3]. Effective use of information implies not only knowledge, but also an understanding of what you know. That is what should be learned.

The interactive whiteboard helps to intensify the learning process, make the frontal forms of education more effective. Interactive whiteboard - a valuable tool for teaching the class.

It is - a visual resource that can help teachers make lessons lively and attractive to students.

Interactive whiteboard allows to present information to the students using a wide range of visualization tools (maps, tables, charts, diagrams, photographs, etc.), to model abstract ideas and concepts, without touching the computer, change the model, to move an object to a different position on the screen, or to establish new communication between objects.

There is no need to wait for student to write the task on the board, thus wasting a few minutes of the lesson - the teacher can display previously prepared materials, and the lesson will be used only for problem solving. During the lesson, students are becoming focused on work, more active and interested, information becomes more accessible and understandable for them, which improves the atmosphere of understanding in the classroom.

The work with the interactive whiteboard in primary school is a continuation of the game, accompanied by audio-visuals. The use of different magnetic pens, laser pointers, "magic" wands develops not only logic, creativity, motor skills and coordination of the child, but also allows him to go back and see what went wrong, analyze own work. A teacher can make a simple and quick amendments to existing methodological material directly in class during the explanation of the material, adapting it for a specific audience and for a specific tasks assigned in class.

Thanks to modern technology and the optimal methods of teaching, a teacher can give each child the opportunity to "travel" around the world of knowledge, just as he travels through game scenes of any entertaining game, giving new powerful impetus to the development of independent cognitive activity.
