THE INFLUENCE OF THE LEVEL OF DIGITAL TRAINING OF TEACHERS ON THE FORMATION OF INFORMATION AND DIGITAL COMPETENCE OF EDUCATION STUDENTS

Abstract

The article highlights the issue of the influence of the level of digital training of teachers on the formation of information and digital competence of students. It is shown that the successful existence of a person in the digital age can be ensured in the case of a high level of information and digital competence. The genesis of research by scientists on the formation of information and digital competence of students is presented. It is noted that information and digital competence can be considered as a set of acquired knowledge, skills and abilities, or as a result of obtaining and processing information using digital resources. The main components of information and digital competence are defined. The problems that prevent the effective use of digital technologies in the educational process (lack of a developed methodology for introducing digital technologies into the pedagogical process; low technical capabilities of educational institutions; unwillingness of teachers to improve their own digital competence) are emphasised. The article analyses a survey conducted on the basis of the municipal institution "Kharkiv Lyceum № 12 of the Kharkiv City Council", which allowed to assess the level of teachers' readiness to use digital educational resources in the learning process and the level of knowledge and skills of teachers in the field of digital technologies. Measures to improve the level of digital training of teachers are presented, which made it possible to form the readiness of teachers to use digital technologies in the educational process. The influence of the level of digital training of teachers on the formation of information and digital competence of students is proved and examples of the use of digital applications in the classroom that contribute to the formation of this competence in students are given.
