FORMATION OF TECHNOLOGICAL LITERACY IN STUDENTS BY MEANS OF 3D MODELING

Abstract

The article presents the problem of technological literacy formation among students of younger adolescents in modern education. There is justified an interest of society in a technologically competent specialist whose skills correspond to the skills of the future. The theoretical aspects of technological literacy in the context of technological competence and technological culture are considered. There are disclosed features of technological literacy formation among students of younger adolescents in the context of modern education. The relationship of technological literacy with IT-competency is reflected. The work presents possibilities of using 3D-modeling technology to formulate such components of technological literacy in younger adolescents: applying knowledge in various subject areas; the study of various technologies of virtual modeling; the formation of knowledge, skills in various fields of professional activity (architecture, construction, medicine, engineering and technical direction). Verification of the provisions presented in the work is planned in the framework of approbation of the authors’ programs: study of Technology subject and additional general development for thematic sections.
