Anotation: The peculiarities of gestalt-approuch, the usage of information technologies in the development of cognitive processes of senior preschool age children are considered in this article.

Key-words: gestalt-approuch; information; senior preschool age; cognitive process.

The educational system can’t exist outside the foundation of consciousness and the acquirement of the scientific knowledge system. There are certain requirements for the content and functioning of the educational system which are considered in many government documents such as: Educational Development Concept of the Republic of Kazakhstan till 2015 year; Messages of the President Nazarbaeyev N. to the people of Kazakhstan [1]. Basing the cognitive skills and the stable habit for studying, the preschool education should provide a high level of personality socialization and personal identity in life..

Analysis of scientific literature has shown that various aspects of the problem of cognitive development of children and enhance cognitive and creative activities of children examined in the works of several authors: Obukhova l. F., Nepomnyashaya N.I. Talyzina, N. F., Brunner, J., Sonstrem, E., Donaldson M. S. Papert, J. Piaget and others.; in studies of domestic psychologists: Sangilbaev O. S. Andreev, Bajžumanova I.V., Mambetalina, A.S., Nadirbekova A.S., Džumažanova G. et al. But at the same time the issues connected with the cognitive process development of preschool children together with the usage of gestault - approach and information technologies were not thoroughly examined in the investigations..

The analysis of the problem shows that, in order to improve and enhance its efficiency requires elaboration and introduction in educational process of children of pre-school age this model (Figure 1) and authoring program that meets modern requirements of education and upbringing of children of this age period.

Figure 1. Model: "Development of cognitive processes of preschool children using the gestalt approach and information technologies"

The author's program "journey to the land of self-knowledge was pilot tested in kindergartens and primary schools covering over 150 children of pre-school age, which enabled us to arrive at the necessary alignment of the gestalt approach and modern information technology, influencing the learning process.

Today, a new "living" space for the virtual world. In a computerized environment among children of pre-school age apparent non-linear dependence between the level of mental rigidity and properties, which in regular (non-computerized environment) do not appear or appear weak.

The basic principle of the use of information technology in the development of cognitive processes of children-activate the motivation to cognition. The most popular is: MicroSoft Office PowerPoint; set multimedia courses (lessons learned) with the animation and sound, recorded on CD; the use of software-based study, the consolidation of new material for verification and correction works; application of electronic encyclopaedias and books on CD-ROM for assignments, exercises, developing communication skills [2]. The proposed information educational technologies variations, based on the content, the goal of developing programs and accounting individually-age children.

Gestalt-approach is one of the leading trends in modern psychology and shares its basic principles. The gestalt approach is the awakening of the potentially existing in man natural processes that contribute to the personal growth, reaching maturity and integrity. One of the key provisions is as follows: "the whole is different from the sum of its parts" and appears as a result of their many interactions and emphasizes the importance of subjective perception.

Different aspects of the problem of children’s cognitive development and questions of cognitive and creative activity are analyzed by:

- increase awareness of reflection, existing obstacles (emotional and personal plan) towards addressing educational problems;

- development of self-control, self-education, self-education, during joint and independent work of children;

- creates the atmosphere of confidence, assistance and support;

- helps to reduce or completely eliminate the fear in children education;

- enhances the credibility of the instructor [3].

To the author's program was the development of the basic properties of thinking, attention, memory, perception and imagination of children of pre-school age. In the content of the curricula are three blocks that perform the tasks to achieve the objectives of the programme.

1 unit – entertainment (contact) – includes children, focused on the creation of good jobs and secure environment.

2 block-correction-correction-developing + to cognitive processes.

3 block – entertainment + developing + control.

Control phase allows you to see the effectiveness of the programme.

The following local psychologists worked over that problem:

1. the adoption of the child such as it is;

2. no rush, no slow down gameplay;

3. take into account the principle of gradual immersion and exit situation that traumatizes;

4. the beginning and end of classes should be standard to save the child's sense of integrity and completeness of classes;

5. the game does not comment on adults;

6. in any game child offers the possibility of improvisation.

All classes have a flexible structure, everything different content.

Thus, in the light of the foregoing, the following conclusions can be drawn: the application of gestalt approach helps to build the most effective contact with children; and information technologies in the area of pre-school education are individually-oriented education and training in the group. Integrated generates cognitive activity, processes, develops creative ability and skill-learning to Centre yourself "necessary for the future of learning information in innovative progress.

We believe that the proposed US model will contribute to considerable modernization of education children of pre-school age and would bring it into line with the needs of society.
