Application interactive methods and technologies of teaching chemistry

Abstract

Currently, chemistry education solves problems related to the definition of new values in order to improve the quality of education, personal development of the pupils, and problems of the teaching strategies that will stimulate the interest and commitment of the students for the natural sciences. The emphasis is on interactive teaching, using the subject matter in practice with ICT. Therefore, our goal is to create and verify an interactive chemistry course for lower secondary schools based on the characteristics of interactive, ICT-connected education and more interesting presentation of the subject matter. The first stage of our work consisted of an analysis of previous studies to establish the theoretical foundations on which to the base the use of ICT. Next, we have presented some of the developed methodological options, which illustrate the ability to use interactive methods. In the second stage, according to the different interactive chemistry programs and analysis of curriculum of the chemistry subject in the Czech Republic and Kazakhstan, we developed interactive teaching materials for chemistry lessons with interesting embedded content for lower secondary schools. In the next stage, all prepared materials will be verified and eventually adapted into the final form for use in chemistry teaching.
