Methods
of development of electronic edition
Abstract: The article
deals with the concepts of electronic edition, reveals the main features and functions
of the electronic edition, examines the main provisions for the development of
electronic edition. The relevance of this study is that the rapid process of
computerization of education on the basis of modern computer systems entering
the country's educational institutions opens the way for electronic edition in
education.
Key words: electronic edition, concept,
educational process, modern computer systems, education, hypertext.
The introduction of information technology in education depends not on the
number of computers, but on the quality of teaching aids and methodological
support for their use. An integral part of informatization in educational
activities is an electronic edition.
The electronic edition is an educational electronic publication containing a systematic
exposition of the academic discipline, its sections, parts, corresponding to
the curriculum, supporting the main links of the didactic cycle of the learning
process, which is an important component of the individualized active educational
environment and officially approved as this type of edition.
The electronic edition is a new form of textbook that has more
possibilities for organizing the educational process and can be used as not
only a source of information, but also a tool for performing practical,
laboratory work, writing assignments, monitoring various processes, etc. When
working with an electronic edition, the teacher can offer assignments that were given when working with an
ordinary paper textbook.
It is
necessary to understand that on the one hand, the electronic edition is an
element of the pedagogical system of the university and, accordingly, is
associated with its other integral elements, as: teacher, student, educational
process and the main means of educational and methodological support of the
electronic educational process aimed at forming general, general professional
and professional competences. On the other hand, being an aggregate of certain
functioning elements, the electronic edition is a quality management system for
learning.
Application
of the electronic edition:
1. For
independent work of students:
- facilitates
the understanding of the material being studied at the expense of other methods
of presentation, individual approach, impact on auditory and emotional memory
other than in the printed textbook;
- Admits the
adaptation in accordance with the needs of students, the level of their
training, intellectual abilities and ambitions;
- free from
cumbersome calculations and transformations, allowing you to focus on the
subject matter, consider more examples and solve more problems;
- provides
opportunities for self-testing at all stages of work;
- performs
the role of mentor, presenting an unlimited number of explanations,
repetitions, tips and stuff.
- to conduct
employment in the form of independent work for computers, leaving behind the
role of a manager and consultant;
- Using a
computer to quickly and effectively monitor the knowledge of students;
- use
computer support to solve more tasks, free up time for analyzing the solutions
received and their graphic interpretation.
3. Allows you
to take lectures and practical lessons, material at your own discretion,
possibly smaller in volume, but most significant in content, leaving for the
independent work with the electronic edition what is left outside the
classroom.
4. Allows you
to optimize the ratio of the number and content of examples and tasks
considered in the audience and asked at home.
5. Allows
individualization of work with students, especially in the part related to
homework and control activities.
The interface
of the electronic edition should combine the integrity of perception and the
logic of action. How to achieve such a combination? First of all, everything in
it must be accessible and understandable. The main component of the textbook is
information, and nothing should distract from it, including interface elements.
The interface is just a way of organizing information, a system for managing
it.
Basic requirements
for electronic edition.
Since the
electronic edition is perceived from the screen, it has its own peculiarities.
1. The text
of the textbook is located in the frame on the screen. Instead of frames, you
can use pop-up windows, where you place pictures, lists of definitions,
pointers, comments.
2. To better
understand, assimilate and memorize the material, it is necessary to use the
technical capabilities: animation, sound, color, illustrations. Inclusion of
special fragments will help to model complex physical and technical processes.
3. Chapters
should be shorter than book ones, they must be broken down into discrete
fragments that contain one narrow question. As a rule, such a fragment consists
of two or three paragraphs.
4. It is
necessary that in one of the frames there is always a table of contents of the
book, which allows, without flipping through the pages, to quickly jump to the
desired section or fragment and also to quickly return back.
5. It is
necessary to select keywords, terms, names, so that by clicking on them with
the mouse button, you can call hyperlinks with explanations of the meanings of
these words or a comment on the computer screen.
6. Use
headers or footers on each electronic page so that the learner does not lose
orientation in the textbook.
When creating
an electronic edition, it is necessary to take into account the whole set of
receptions, methods, and production methods for producing graphic and
audiovisual information, taking into account the reproduction of electronic
edition from a local media, a local network or educational Web sites of the
World Wide Web.
Electronic editions should:
- focus on modern forms of education, while
ensuring compatibility with traditional teaching materials, in full accordance
with the documents regulating the content of education;
- take into account age-related psychological and
pedagogical characteristics of students;
- to maximize the benefits of audiovisual
presentation of learning materials: observable and hidden, real and imaginary elements,
objects, phenomena, processes;
- use the possibilities of computer modeling in
the domain, as well as modeling of the real environment and the natural
behavior of the trainee in it.
The development of
technology has provided a new, unique opportunity to conduct classes - distance
learning. Thanks to distance education, the student can choose the time and
place for training, it is possible to get education for those who can not
traditionally be trained for various reasons. Distance learning allows the use
of various modern information technologies, including electronic textbooks,
which can combine both information material in the form of text, drawings,
graphics, video, etc., and practical material with dynamic verification: tests,
tests etc. All this can best be done in the form of a web site, the layout of
which will be done using the modern HTML5 hypertext markup language and
cascading style sheets of the third generation CSS3.
Hypertext Markup
Language HTML5 is not a continuer of the hypertext markup language, but a new
open platform designed to create web applications that use audio, video,
graphics, animation, and more. Those who switched to HTML5 already saw one of
the advantages of the code is the simplicity of creating, the use of clean code.
The fifth update is better than previous versions of the HTML language in that
tables and div blocks were deleted
forever. Now elements such as footer,
aside, as well as nav, article, header are used. The most
global change, felt even by users far from programming, was the playback of
flash animations, video, and online listening to music without additional
drivers in the browser window itself. The transfer of data to the server has
also been improved and optimized for ease of entry. Now in HTML5, all errors
will promptly notify the user, which makes it easier to work with the site. To
expand the boundaries was also possible in web design: so rich a choice of
design of games, own sites, which proves the effectiveness of the 5 version. As
mentioned above, without additional software, you can implement a beautiful
animation or original game on your site with the help of the innovation canvas.
Advantages of HTML5:
- It does not require
the installation and regular updating of additional browser plug-ins for the use
of electronic textbooks.
- There is no need to
purchase expensive commercial software products for creating or editing
multimedia textbooks.
- Higher productivity,
economical consumption of computing resources.
- Multiplatform
(compatibility with all common operating systems and mobile devices);
- Ability to use 3D
graphics and hardware acceleration.
All the above
advantages of HTML5 allow you to create the layout of an electronic
edition with maximum convenience
and fill it with completely different material: text, pictures, animations,
video, various testing materials. With the proper use of all these tools, you
can create educational material that is many times greater than ordinary books
and with which it will be very interesting to work. And most importantly, it
can be opened on any device, just by going into the browser.
Based on
the foregoing, it can be seen that electronic edition developed with HTML5 are convenient for a number
of reasons. To which it is possible to carry the following:
- creating
once such a layout, you can make a lot of printed literature in a convenient
electronic form;
- flexible
language HTML5 allows you to output absolutely any information in the browser,
which will make the textbook interactive;
- in order
to open it you only need a computer or other device with access to the
Internet, which means that it can be used almost everywhere.
