Methods of teaching needlework technology applied in
new conditions
Long
before the emergence of pedagogical theories, in the long practice of
education, labor upbringing of young Kazakhs had an important role. Traditions,
customs and rituals formed some special characteristics where labor skills and
hardworking were on the first place. Work is a necessity of life for most
people, so it was necessary to give the younger generation a positive attitude
to work, a certain amount of practical skills, diligence. This process was
carried out mainly in the family and it gave the basics of people's educational
thought. Folk pedagogy wisely considered labor and labor education, not only as
a necessary condition of preparation for practice, but also as a general
physical and spiritual development of young people. From that time saying,
proverbs, etc. came to us, where the topic of labor takes an important place.
The purpose of the scientific research: to study teaching
methods of the topic "Needlework". The
tasks of the scientific research:
1. To
consider the stages of the technological education;
2. To
disclose the nature and role of technological education of teachers in the
technological culture;
3. To
analyze the literature;
In the
formation of education and throughout the history of mankind, wonderful people
has always played an important role. Only talented, intelligent, understanding
the practical need for "the public interest" systematic training of
young people, the individuals laid the foundation of the present system of
labor training.
Technological
culture, as a type of universal culture, has an impact on all aspects of life
and society. It forms the technological outlook, which is based on a system of
technological view of nature, society and man. A part of a process is thinking
which is associated with a generalized reflection of the individual scientific
- technological environment and mental ability to reform activities. An
integral part of the technological culture is also technological aesthetics,
which is expressed in the design knowledge, skills and abilities to carry out
technological activity by the laws of beauty.
Technological
culture has an impact on the objectives and content of the younger generation.
In the general education system and technological preparation of students is
implemented where the formation of technological culture and its readiness for
reform activities are used together with scientific knowledge. The overall
objectives of technology education consist of the providing of students with
knowledge, the formation of technological skills, education of technologically
important personality traits.
Technological
knowledge is the result of the learning process in the technological world
and its adequately reflect in the human
mind in the form of concepts, ideas, opinions and conclusions. Students need to
know the basic technological concepts: technology, technological environment,
process, methods of transformative activities, etc. They need to be aware of
the advanced technologies in the material and intellectual production and the
basic forms of human life. Technological skill is exploration of ways of
transformative activities through the acquisition of scientific knowledge. It
includes the ability to plan their activities, prediction and evaluation of the
results and effectiveness of self-producing the necessary knowledge to perform
graphics, determine their availability.
Technologically
important feature is a term usually used to depict human’s property which is
necessary for successful mastery of transforming activity. These include
qualities such as professionalism, entrepreneurship, the need to constantly
improve their professional- technological knowledge and skills. Thus,
technology education is a process and a result of creativity, that is gained by
active learners of technological knowledge, skills and personal qualities which
form a technological culture, reflected in the willingness to reform activities
on a scientific basis.
The
essence of the meaning of the principle of the "Technology"
systematic is that students are aware of the knowledge acquired as elements of
a complete, integrated system. The implementation of the principles of teaching
in the content of the program: Under the principles of learning there should be
understood assumptions that underlie learning and determine all its aspects:
content, methods, forms of organization. There is a close relationship between
didactic principles- it’s a certain system. And now we’ll take a look at each
principle separately.
1)
Scientific, systematic, consistency in training. Rules that ensure regularity,
consistency and availability of training: to go from the concrete to the
abstract, from near to far, from the known to the unknown, from the simple to
the complex, from easy to difficult. The whole system of knowledge on the
subject "Technology", the order of the material on the grade level of
the developing psychological characteristics and abilities of students, reveal
the inner connection between the individual scientific concepts and general
laws. The transition from near to far in the training material of the subject
is when the teacher connects the new knowledge with the life experience of
students with the views that they see in the environment.
One of
the most important requirements for the systematic arrangement of the material
is the compliance of continuity relations. Scientific, systematic and
interrelated sequence, and it is crucial to improve the work improve the
quality of students' knowledge. We’ll take the theme "Counting the
seams" as an example. It reveals the concept of the set of loops, forms of
seams and elements of seams. This topic opens up new not yet learned the
concept, but at the same time there is basic knowledge.
2)
Consciousness and activeness of students. Consciousness refers to
teachers as the mastering scientific knowledge by students, training material,
its deep understanding and ability to use knowledge in practice in the new
conditions, the transformation of knowledge into belief in guidance. Conscious
learning necessarily involves active and independent learners.
During
the "Technology" study, the student improves his own independent
thought, he has the possibility of creativity, making things more efficient,
organizing his work, test it in his own points of views and knowledge. This
kind of activity and autonomy is a good way to learn the study. An example of
this is the theme of "Counting the seams." In this lesson, students
do practical work (embroidery and cross stitch), which provides good absorption
of new material.
3)
Visual learning. Visibility is a principle which is not based on
abstract concepts and words, but on a concrete manner, directly perceived by
the child. By the nature of the reflection of reality clarity there are the
following types of presentation:
• Natural clarity
(live plants, animals, minerals).
• pictorial clarity
(photographs, paintings, drawings).
• symbolic images
(maps, drawings, diagrams, graphs, charts, tables).
There
are also tools such clarity that combine all of them. First of all, it includes
an educational film. With the help of cameras we can penetrate the secrets of
the phenomena and processes. Cinema can show bright and exciting hidden deep
processes in inorganic nature, in living organisms. In school course
"Technology" visual instruction is laid at the core implementation of
didactic principles. During the implementation of this principle there is the
orientation of students to the full perception of the subject by using
different senses, the ability to display the object in its development and
change, the emergence of students’ maximum activeness and independence,
preventing overload teaching visual aids, it’s not an end in itself making
obviousness. Poster about safe methods of work demonstrates for the safe
handling of needles, scissors and other piercing objects.
5) The
solidity of knowledge. The principle solidity requires the students’
assignment for a long time which remains conscious, systematic knowledge and
skills.
Solidity of
knowledge in the "Technology" is in direct proportion to the
repetition, which is possibly performed on every lesson. Independence of
thought with repetition finds its expression in the creation of new methods of
proof solutions of cognitive tasks. In the practical application of knowledge
on this subject there are very favorable conditions for self-control. In each
lesson, the teacher should first consolidate the covered material covered,
which means to check the solidity of knowledge. This approach to the
verification of knowledge leads to a successful result and a good grade.
6)
An individual approach. Teachers should fully take into consideration special
characteristics of each student in order to make students get knowledge
consciously, so that they had a free will to really educate and so it would be
available,.
Individual
attention to students in the "Technology" allows the teacher, above
all, to make learning more accessible to each of them, the ability to apply
knowledge in practice, to think independently, and the ability to overcome
interference problems. Proper consideration of these features helps the teacher
to better organize individual work of students. In a lesson "Countable
seams" students can fully develop or discover their talents. It requires
imagination, sense of style, which in the future may affect the choice of a
profession.
Each of
the didactics principles in itself, which is isolated from the others, doesn’t
perform any value. Only in unity, individually in a certain system, they are
the principles of training. Didactic principles are the basis for the proper
solution of important problems in the theory and practice of teaching.
