Development of cognitive independence of future teachers through the use of digital educational resources

Abstract

This article is devoted to the study of the effectiveness of using digital educational resources for the development of cognitive independence of future teachers. The research involved students who actively used digital resources to study academic subjects, and the results were analyzed. The main objective of the study was to determine the extent to which the use of digital educational resources in the learning process contributes to the development of students’ cognitive independence.

The analysis of the research results showed that the use of digital educational resources indeed contributes to the development of students’ cognitive independence. Moreover, it was noted that digital educational resources have several advantages that make them particularly useful for learning. In particular, they are accessible to most students, which makes them convenient to use anytime and anywhere. In addition, they are characterized by interactivity and the possibility of individual customization of learning according to the student’s level of knowledge and specific needs.

We conducted a study based on certain methods for assessing the level of independence ("Methodology for determining the strength of cognitive need" by V.S.Yurkevich, "Methodology for determining cognitive activity" by L. A. Chervyakova, Yu.V. Boyko) and comparing the results between a group of students using digital educational resources and a control group that studies without using them. A survey was conducted to identify students' attitudes towards digital educational resources and their own assessment of the level of independence in educational activities.

The article also discusses the possibilities of using digital educational resources in the learning process and provides recommendations for their application. The use of digital educational resources makes it possible to improve the quality of learning and the development of cognitive independence of future teachers. Thus, this study emphasizes the importance of integrating digital educational resources into education and offers specific recommendations for their effective implementation.

Based on the results of the experimental work, it should be noted that when preparing a future teacher at a university in order to form and develop cognitive independence, it is necessary that the student has the opportunity to be involved in innovative activities for the development of new digital technologies.
