Audiovisual learning technologies

The modern world is radically different from that,which to all of us was known still some ten years ago. Until quite recently it seemed absolutely incredible that now surrounds us at every step. So also new audiovisual technologies of teaching in secondary and higher schools.

The system of education in its essence has always beensomewhat conservative. Strangely enough, it is the old experienced teachers who often resist the introduction of new technologies into the educational process. Guided by their experience, the conservative minded old-school teachers achieve such results that young supporters of new methods did not even dream.

So, the new technologies are in themselves evencount do not mean anything? Indeed, in the first place in the pedagogical process - yet the talent of the teacher and his rich experience. But audiovisual learning technologies can not be discounted, as well as other new trends in the educational process.

Now it's even hard to imagine what elsemore recently, the assistant teachers were only a map and various thematic posters on subjects, proudly called "visual aids." And if the teacher did such manuals in his spare time from lessons and checking notebooks, and even with his students at extracurricular activities, the experience of such a teacher was generalized and studied by his followers.

Such a means of visualagitation, as a cinema projector of the type "Shkolnik" or "Ukraine", through which students in the specially darkened classes were shown popular science films on geography or educational films in physics, showing the conduct of various experiments that reveal certain patterns. Thus, the projection or the demonstration of transparencies can already be defined as the first audiovisual teaching aids, albeit with some stretch. A standard player with black large vinyl records can also be attributed to the first audiovisual media.

What is really new can giveaudiovisual technologies for teaching the modern educational process? The fact is that modern media technologies, unlike old habitual tape recorders and record players, allow the student and teacher practically to move to a completely new communicative level, that is, to transfer or assimilate new knowledge already at the media level - while understanding and, therefore, learning new material much easier and faster.

Indeed, it is one thing to listen andto note the lecture of the teacher, and quite another - to participate in the creation of the same lecture in real time along with other students influencing the course of events on the interactive whiteboard. In addition, modern interactive audiovisual teaching methods will no longer allow a student to simply sleep off at a lecture after a stormy night, because they require the student to participate directly and actively in the educational process. In addition, experience shows that such classes are very interesting for students and they willingly attend them - the percentage of non-attendance is extremely low.

Now you can talk about that newdirection in education, which is called distance learning. What is it and in what cases is it used? It's no secret that people with disabilities are limited not only by the ability to move around in space. They are also limited in terms of obtaining a decent education. The same can be said about those people who live in rural areas and do not have the opportunity for any reason to leave for study in the major cities of the country.

Here the technologydistance learning, allowing you to engage with the teacher remotely, using such a powerful means of communication as Skype. In this case, too, modern audiovisual learning technologies and other interactive methods are used.

But still getting a real decenteducation in our country will become possible only when students and schoolchildren cease to be "trained" and will again become students, that is, active participants in the educational process.
