Introduction:
Building a state with a great future
largely depends on people with high thinking,
worldview, and mature specialists. Therefore, the
training of new-thinking, highly qualified specialists
with deep knowledge has become a requirement of the
times. Raising the future generation as well-rounded
individuals, providing education and upbringing places
great responsibility not only on parents but also on
school teachers [1]. Modernization of the local
education system creates the need to search for new
approaches to the organization of the educational
process. The level of development and preparedness of
students in the process of technology lessons should
not only correspond to the current state of social and
production relations, but also ensure their ability to
adapt in the process of renewal and transformation of
the social, economic, and production spheres of the
country, to find solutions in non-standard situations,
and to think independently and creatively.
Today's global civilized community is largely based on
information technology. Under the influence of the
informatization process, a new structure is being
formed - the information society. Information culture is
becoming an integral part of everyday life. In general
education schools, teaching and educating students in
the subject of technology requires teachers to
effectively use educational technologies and ICT in the
process of organizing and conducting lessons. The more
active the teacher's activity, the more creative,
interesting, and promising the organization of students'
behavior, the more effective the educational
technologies used will be, the easier and more realistic
the designed learning objectives will be, and the faster
the expected results will be achieved [3].
In modern education, the use of computers in teaching
the subjects of technology and design, service, has a
significant impact on the development of theoretical
and creative thinking in schoolchildren, as well as the
formation of a new type of thinking, called operational
thinking, aimed at choosing optimal solutions. The
Development Society has always been in demand not
only for the full assimilation of the system of
knowledge, skills, and abilities of schools and
universities, but also for young people with a broad
worldview, the ability to think outside the box, to
promote and implement creative ideas.
Creativity is a hierarchically structured unit of abilities
inherent in a person, which determines the level and
quality of thought processes aimed at adapting to
changing and specific conditions in sensorimotor,
visual, operational-activity, and logical-theoretical
forms.
The study of children's creative abilities and talents in
pedagogical sciences begins in early childhood and
continues in general education schools and higher
educational institutions. Thus, this area covers the

younger generation of all ages. The issue of creative
development of personality is complex and
multifaceted. This falls within the sphere of interests of
psychologists, teachers, and sociologists of different
countries. In any advanced state, people with high
creative potential and creative activity are in demand.
Independent of the principle of activity, our scientists
believe that the activity of students can have a
reproductive or creative character [5]. In the first case,
it is aimed at memorizing the studied material and
reproducing information, following the teacher's
encouraging instructions, and completing learning
tasks using examples and videos. If students are
creative, even if they are subjective, they develop a
desire to make some kind of discovery. Creative activity
is at the highest level, since the task itself can be set by
the student, and the methods of its solution are new,
unconventional, and original [2].
At the same time, creativity, on the one hand, serves as
a condition for the manifestation of creative activity,
and on the other hand, creative activity manifests itself
in the personal qualities of a person. The problem of
developing students' creative activity is one of the most
important issues in the system of technological science.
"Creative activity is a quality of a person that embodies
the
characteristics of
creative activity.
This
characterizes a high level of personality development.
This is a person's complex relationship with reality, a
set of their characteristics, where intellectual,
volitional, emotional, and physical processes act in
unity.
Creative activity is a person's striving
for new methods in solving tasks and overcoming
difficulties; the desire to introduce elements of
innovation into product design and task completion
methods.
"Creative activity is the student's ability to
independently define new tasks in the process of
practical work, ways to solve them, the ability to
actively apply knowledge and skills in a new situation.
Thus, creative activity is not a distinct characteristic, a
personality trait, but a whole complex of personal
qualities" [4]. In the subject "Technology," working
with various text and graphic editors, tables and
preparing presentations and performing work on
programming
systems,
database
management
systems, and statistical data processing gives good
results in increasing student creativity. ICT includes
educational and methodological materials (visual,
theoretical, practical, control) and computer programs
that control the educational process. Thus, software
products that help teach technology in school and are
used in mastering other subjects are of particular
interest. Software products for the educational process
are
electronic
versions
of
educational
and
methodological materials: computer presentations,
electronic textbooks, reference dictionaries, laboratory
practical training programs, educational programs, test
programs, the use of which leads to saving time for
both the teacher and the student.
In interactive programs on a computer, the possibility
of dialogue communication and the widespread use of
graphics (pictures, diagrams, drawings, maps,
photographs) has appeared. This made it possible to
transfer information at a new level and improve its
understanding.
Software products using graphics contribute to the
development of such important qualities as intuition,
figurative and spatial thinking. Increasing the
productivity of personal computers allows for wider
use of multimedia technologies and virtual reality
systems.
Multimedia technologies allow the use of text,
graphics, video, and animation in interactive mode,
thereby expanding the areas of computer application in
the educational process. Contactless data interaction
technology - virtual reality implements the illusion of
the user's immediate presence in real time in the
"screen world," which is stereoscopically represented
using a multimedia environment.
With the help of hypertext learning systems, the
student himself can use various schemes when working
with the material, adhering to graphical and textual
links. This creates conditions for implementing a
differentiated approach to education. The use of
various
information
technologies,
multimedia,
hypertext in electronic publications gives good didactic
advantages over traditional books:
- multimedia technology creates an educational
environment with a vivid visual presentation of
information;
Hypertext technology simplifies navigation thanks to
the use of hyperlinks and allows you to choose an
individual scheme for studying the material;
- ITT technology, based on the modeling of the
educational process, allows filling the textbook with
texts, tracking and directing the trajectory of studying
the material, and expressing feedback;
- a significant amount of data is combined on one
medium.
In recent years, distance
learning technology has been actively developing,
which allows solving the problems of vocational
training and advanced training of students with
disabilities who are far from school. Passive perception
of information by students can occur during the
teacher's explanation of a new topic, even if they use
visual aids and various didactic tools. The reader may

think about something specific, personal, and perceive
the information or not receive it at all. Communication
with the computer activates the student's thinking,
conducts a dialogue, answers questions, and perceives
information. Moreover, the very implementation of
computer technologies increases motivation for
learning. Thus, the student is active when working with
the computer.
If,
for
example, in sewing, computer programs are used in the
lesson process, the student transitions to the form of
an active user. The student's setting of any important
life goals includes elements of creativity. From this
point of view, our scientists conditionally divide them
into three categories. The first are those who are
inclined to passively wait for important goals to be
invented and imposed on them by someone from
outside. The opposite side of this group is those who
preferred to find and choose important goals for
themselves. Between these poles, there is an
intermediate group, which has both the first and
second qualities, but mainly selects goals from a
standard list given from the outside. It is legitimate to
call students who are inclined to passively expect the
imposition of invented goals stimulating-reproductive,
and those who show creativity in setting goals creative.
More conscious and proactive people choose a
profession that corresponds to their inclinations and
talents. They benefit society by providing themselves
with physical and spiritual comfort. Gifted students
have a great potential of abilities that allow them to
easily adapt to the environment, take advantage of its
advantages, and organize a comfortable life for
themselves. Some of them limit themselves to this,
while others are not content with simply adapting to
the environment, but strive to improve this
environment, to make it better in accordance with their
needs and beliefs. These are active creators.
The creative activity of a schoolchild using ICT in the
subject of technology is an integral quality of the
individual, manifested in a value-based attitude
towards creativity, the ability to independently create
products of creative activity, develops in the activity of
independent search and problem-solving, and finds its
expression in the results of work.
Using ICT in the lesson process, the student combines
human innovation and qualities inherent in a creative
and active personality in their activities.
The main ones are:
1) stable interest in the use of ICT in creative activity;
2) information literacy, information culture;
3) flexibility, ingenuity of thinking;
4) non-standard thinking;
5) intellect;
6) resourcefulness;
7) desire to find the problem;
8) ease of generating ideas.
A student's deep knowledge of ICT and its active use
develops a number of personal qualities:
- algorithmic, constructive thinking, based on its
specific features
Computer communication;
- the ability to make optimal decisions in a difficult
situation;
- creative thinking due to a decrease in the share of
reproductive activity;
- communication skills projects based on joint
implementation;
- skills in working with product modeling and design
programs and ITS;
- information literacy and information culture, the
ability to process information;
- creative activity.
In the process of a technology lesson, the student's
ability to perceive and process information, develop
solutions to problems in non-standard situations, and
generate ideas is manifested. In the development of
creative activity of schoolchildren using ICT, firstly, the
student does not show interest in creative activity, is
passive, active only when following the teacher's
instructions, has low knowledge of working with
computers, and mainly acts in accordance with the
direction. In the second situation, the student shows
situational interest in creative activity, is active only
during work, solves simple creative problems on a
computer with the help of the teacher in situations that
interest him, in which the teacher, classmates, or he
himself can be an initiator, has average knowledge of
working with a computer. In the third situation, the
student shows constant activity in working with the
computer, solves both the tasks set by the teacher and
those created independently; is proactive, has the
ability to observe, spatial imagination, creative abilities,
possesses knowledge above average for activities using
ICT, and is able to independently reproduce them
completely. The student in the fourth situation has
technical thinking, high creative activity, high creative
abilities, a wide range of knowledge that can be
selectively updated and adapted to new conditions;
possesses computer literacy, can adapt acquired
knowledge and methods of activity to new conditions,
quickly understands the operating principles of
technical devices, can create subjectively and
objectively new creative products, has high knowledge

of working with ICT. The issue of creative development
of personality is complex and multifaceted. The use of
information technologies allows for maximum
individualization of the educational process, its
construction taking into account the specific
characteristics of a particular student, ensuring their
active, proactive activity in self-development.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, the development of students' creative
activity in the field of technology with the help of ICT
will be even more successful. In this case, technology
teachers should use various forms and methods that
contribute to the development of students' creative
activity when working with ICT in the classroom. As
such forms and methods, we distinguish: the use of the
project method, multimedia technologies, non-
traditional lessons using a computer, interactive
whiteboard, various game technologies, problem-
solving, the use of Internet resources, etc.
