"SCIENTIFIC AND METHODOLOGICAL FOUNDATIONS AND MODERN TRENDS IN TEACHING INFORMATICS"

Abstrak

This article explores the modern methodological approaches to teaching informatics in secondary schools, focusing on innovative methods and their effectiveness in enhancing the learning process. The study analyzes interactive teaching methods, project-based learning, gamification, and the integration of digital tools into the educational process. Special attention is given to international practices, such as those in Finland and South Korea, to identify strategies for their adaptation to the national education system. Experimental research has demonstrated that these approaches improve students' motivation, critical thinking, and practical skills. Furthermore, the study highlights the importance of equipping teachers with the necessary qualifications and addressing infrastructural challenges to ensure the effective implementation of these methods. The results of this research provide a foundation for improving the quality of informatics education and aligning it with global educational standards.
