PROJECT ACTIVITIES OF STUDENTS IN TECHNOLOGY CLASSSES

Abstract

The article considers educational design projecting as a stage-by-stage process, which is determined by a clear sequence and coherence of students' design and research actions. The authors of the article focus on the fact that the development of a design concept is a key element of the creative process, which is formed under the influence of individual psychological characteristics of the individual, in particular, the ability to perform various types of design activities characteristic of design projecting.

Particular attention is paid to the importance of students' design and research activities based on the use of imaginative thinking, productive imagination and graphic control inherent in design activities. The authors show that the use of research tasks in the course of educational design projecting contributes to the growth of students' cognitive independence and creates conditions for their self-development and self-realisation. This approach helps students gain the experience necessary for future professional activities and contributes to the development of their individuality.
