Abstract:
The article deals with the organization, process and results of the experimental verification of the integrated approach to the modernization of information and digital training of future primary school teachers, which was theoretically grounded in the research. The experiment, which took place in some
pedagogical colleges, involved the main forms of the educational process (classes, independent work,
practical training, and tests), and included the study of the author’s elective course "Modern Information
and Digital Technologies in the Educational Process of Primary School".
Appropriate methodological support has been developed for the formative stage of the pedagogical
experiment. It consists of an electronic textbook "Modern Information and Digital Technologies in the
Educational Process of Primary School", lesson plans, tasks for independent work and undergraduate
pedagogical practice, test tasks of various types for current and final control, algorithms for practical
wo
rk, and project topics. The educational process was based on electronic teaching aids such as slide
libraries, video clips, interactive exercises and illustrations, electronic textbooks, including the author’s
teaching aids to the module "Google services in the work of primary school teachers".
The two-year formative stage of the pedagogical experiment, which was attended by control and experimental groups of future bachelors of secondary education, confirmed the positive impact of the integrated approach on modernization of information and digital training of future primary school teachers
and proved its effectiveness. During the period of its implementation, the levels of formation of cognitive, operational and value components of students’ ID competence in the experimental group were
significantly higher compared to the levels in the control group. Students in the experimental group
were better prepared to conduct online training of primary school children in the conditions of quarantine restrictions caused by respiratory disease COVID-19. The statistical evaluation of the results
of formation of students’ ID competence in the conditions of realization of the integrated approach to
modernization of ID training at the bachelor’s level of higher education carried out by criterion 2 proved
its efficiency.
