Abstract:
The article considers the use of innovative technologies in the formation of competence of primary
school students as a pressing pedagogical problem. The ability to evaluate, organize, and understand information
is currently the most important resource in the context of global mass communication. Global informatization
naturally affects the educational process, and the main task of the education system is to identify modern trends
in the development of society and the introduction of pedagogical technologies into the educational process that
form a positive experience and reflect modern social changes, bringing the educational process into an orderly,
controlled system. The purpose of the study is to find effective ways to demonstrate information activities, to
build a model that promotes the development of ICT competence in primary school students by means of
disciplines of the mathematical cycle. The possibilities and prospects for the introduction of various educational
technologies for the development of key competencies in primary school children are assessed. The direct
development of a schoolchild affects the development of the entire educational environment, which makes the
state more stable from the social side, with greater opportunities for entering the international arena and its
contribution to the overall development of education, in particular primary school. The article also describes the
main types of innovative technologies, their impact on the educational process and teaching practice, and touches
upon the problems and challenges that teachers face when introducing innovative methods into the educational
process.

Introduction:
Modern realities of the educational
process reflect social, economic and scientific changes
and impose new requirements on school education. In
the context of rapid technological development and
the transition of society to digital technologies, it is
especially important to develop students' skills at all
stages of education, starting from elementary grades.
In addition to transferring knowledge, it is important to
equip children with the skills to adapt to a rapidly
changing world and solve non-standard problems. One
of the effective ways to develop these skills is to use
innovative technologies in the educational process. [1]
Today, education is recognized throughout the world as
a key factor in ensuring sustainable development and is

defined in the concept of international education until
2030 as an urgent task of creating opportunities for
obtaining a quality education. This has expanded the
possibilities for using technologies in the education
system aimed at improving the level of methodological
training, developing creative thinking in the
professional activities of teachers, including primary
school teachers.
To be on a par with leading countries, special attention
is paid to the content of education, new versions of
textbooks are experimented with, modern methods
are used to improve the effectiveness of the
educational process. Modern technologies, such as
information and communication systems, electronic
teaching materials, educational platforms and
interactive whiteboards, create new opportunities for
learning and expand the horizons of the educational
process. In primary school, where children first become
familiar with the basics of educational activities,
innovative technologies can have a significant impact
on the development of children's cognitive and social
skills. However, the introduction of innovative
technologies in primary school is associated with
certain difficulties. [3] This is due to the need to change
traditional teaching methods, modernize educational
institutions, train teachers and provide access to
modern educational resources. Therefore, the use of
innovative technologies in the development of
secondary school students' abilities is not only a
pressing but also an important pedagogical problem
that requires comprehensive analysis and the
development of effective solutions. Modern education
aims to develop in students not only knowledge, but
also competencies that will allow them to successfully
adapt to a rapidly changing world. In this regard, special
attention is paid to the use of innovative technologies
that promote the development of critical thinking,
creativity, [5] collaboration skills and self-education.
Innovative technologies are of particular importance in
primary school, where the foundations of all future
skills and competencies are laid.
We need to teach today's youth new, modern lessons
based on global experience. It is necessary to form the
logical thinking of young people, improve their
intellectual literacy, provide knowledge that develops
their thinking, teach them to understand themselves,
behave in communication with others, read other
people's opinions, think freely and express them boldly.
To do this, it is necessary to study global experience,
organize lessons based on advanced pedagogical and
innovative technologies, use new interactive methods
to achieve high results.
"Mathematics cannot be quickly developed using
yesterday's teaching methods." Therefore, it is
necessary to create educational programs and retrain
teaching staff based on foreign methods that have
shown good results in practice. The methodology
should be such as to instill in children a love of
mathematics. To do this, students need to understand
that this subject is necessary for them in all areas of life.
"Young people should study not to pass exams, but to
become competent specialists," the head of our state
believes.
Today's teacher must teach in such a way as to meet
the demands of the time and be one step ahead of the
youth. Our youth is so demanding that they quickly
master the world of computers, phones and the
Internet. Therefore, it is important to use new methods
and techniques for teaching this youth, introduce new
technologies into education, teach in a modern way,
thereby forming and developing their competencies.
METHODS
To study the problem of using innovative technologies
in forming the competence of primary school students
within the framework of pedagogical practice, the
following methods and materials were used:
1. Analysis of scientific and pedagogical literature
The study analyzed existing theoretical and practical
materials devoted to the issues of introducing
innovative technologies into the educational process,
as well as studying the influence of these technologies
on the formation of various competencies in primary
school students. The works of leading scientists and
teachers in the field of educational psychology,
educational technologies, as well as studies on
innovative teaching methods were used. The sources
included monographs, articles, studies in pedagogical
journals, as well as documents related to educational
policy
and
the
practical
implementation
of
technologies in the educational process.
2. Review of pedagogical experience
One of the research methods was a selection of
examples of the successful use of innovative
technologies in the educational practice of primary
schools. This analysis was based on real examples from
educational institutions that actively used information
and
communication
technologies,
electronic
educational resources and innovative methods (for
example, project-based learning, game-based learning,
etc.) in their teaching. We studied how the use of these
technologies affects the results of students' learning
activities, the development of their key competencies
and interaction in the educational environment.
3. Case study method
The study examined specific cases of introducing
innovative technologies into teaching primary school

students. This included studying individual lessons,
projects, and events that used innovative approaches,
such as the use of electronic textbooks, online
platforms,
virtual
laboratories,
interactive
whiteboards, and other technologies. The results of
these experiments were evaluated, and possible
difficulties and problems that teachers encountered
when introducing new methods were identified.
4. Questionnaires and interviews with teachers
To obtain more in-depth information about the
problems and prospects for introducing innovative
technologies
into
the
educational
process,
questionnaires and interviews were conducted with
primary school teachers. The questionnaire questions
covered topics such as: the level of training of teachers
in the use of technologies, the barriers that teachers
face when
introducing
innovations,
students'
perceptions of new teaching methods, and opinions on
the impact of technologies on the development of
students' competencies. Interviews with teachers
helped identify practical aspects of introducing
technologies, as well as recommendations for
improving the educational process.
5. Analysis of educational programs and advanced
training courses
An analysis of existing educational programs and
courses aimed at improving the qualifications of
primary school teachers in the use of information and
communication technologies was conducted. This
included both courses offered by educational
institutions and online education resources. The
effectiveness of these programs in preparing teachers
to implement innovative technologies in practice, as
well as the program's compliance with current
educational policy requirements, was assessed.
6. Assessing the impact of technologies on the
development of key competencies
To assess the impact of the use of innovative
technologies on the development of students'
competencies, observations were conducted of
students who used various digital tools as part of
educational projects and assignments. Progress in the
development of such competencies as critical thinking,
the ability to work in a group, creativity, and
information search and analysis skills was assessed.
Comparison of the results of students using traditional
teaching methods and those who were taught using
technologies allowed us to draw conclusions about the
impact of innovative approaches on the educational
process.
7. Use of statistical data
Statistical data processing methods were used to
identify patterns and trends. In particular, the results of
teachers' questionnaires and analysis of students'
learning outcomes before and after the introduction of
innovative technologies were processed. This allowed
us to obtain quantitative data reflecting the
effectiveness of using technologies in the educational
process.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
In my opinion, when using innovative technologies, a
teacher should pay attention to the following factors
that help to create a complete picture when selecting
certain tasks for primary school students in
mathematics lessons:
•
precise interaction of the principles of
coherence of the material;
•
the significance of the material being tested
from the point of view of mathematical and
natural science education;
•
compliance with the age and psychological
capabilities of children.
To assess the mathematical preparation of
schoolchildren, tasks of different types are prepared
such as: open, closed tests, with a choice of several
answers, with a short or full detailed answer, practical
tasks on logic and thinking. For a better assessment, it
is appropriate for a teacher to use a differential
approach, where there are four levels of academic
achievement: low, medium, high and highest. Time
frames that do not exceed what is permitted are also
important.
When teaching primary school students, it is important
to correctly select and use methods, means and forms
of pedagogical technologies in order to expand the
horizons of students, their creative abilities. A number
of innovative technologies are used in organizing
educational activities.
Modern innovative technologies in education cover a
wide range of approaches and methods, [2] including
information and communication technologies (ICT),
project activities, educational games, elements of
distance learning and many others. The influence of
these technologies on the development of competence
of primary school students is manifested through the
following key aspects:
1. Development of critical thinking. Modern
technologies, such as electronic educational materials,
interactive whiteboards, problem solving applications,
contribute to the development of students' skills in
analyzing, comparing, synthesizing and evaluating
information.
2. Communication and social skills. The introduction of

collaborative technology, for example, within the
framework of group projects, contributes to the
development of communication skills, teamwork and
self-organization.
3. Creative development. Interactive platforms and
educational games stimulate children's creative
activity, allowing them to develop creative thinking and
the ability to solve non-standard problems.
4. Ability to work with information. The use of digital
technologies allows primary school children to learn to
work with large amounts of information, effectively
search, analyze and apply it to solve various problems.
5. Personalization of learning. The use of individualized
educational technologies allows creating more flexible
learning conditions, which contributes to the successful
implementation of the educational needs of each child.
However, the introduction of innovative technologies
into the primary school educational process faces a
number of problems. [3]) The most significant of them
are:
• The need for additional training of
teachers. Most
primary school teachers do not have sufficient
experience and skills in working with new technologies,
which requires special advanced training courses.
• Lack of resources. For the effective implementation
of innovations, appropriate technical means are
needed, such as computers, tablets, projectors, as well
as access to Internet resources.
• Resistance to change. Not all teachers are ready to
accept new approaches and methods, preferring
traditional forms of teaching. This can slow down the
introduction of innovative technologies into the
educational process.
In line with the technology of developmental learning,
numerous educational programs and methodological
recommendations for the formation of mathematical
competencies in primary school students have been
developed. The authors of these programs understand
and interpret the development of the student in the
process of teaching mathematics in different ways. The
development of thinking of primary school students is
one of the main tasks of primary school. As noted by a
number of scientists (M.I. Bekoeva [5], A.A. Kurilova,
B.Sh. Sekinaeva, L.V. Snegireva, O.A. Kholomina),
younger schoolchildren are distinguished by increased
sensitivity to events happening to them; this age is
most favorable for the formation of cognitive processes
and mental abilities. It is clear that even with the best
textbooks and methodological literature, the problem
of developing students' mathematical thinking cannot
be solved only by improving the educational process
(M.A. Guseva [6], I.K. Kondaurova [6]), since teaching
mathematics to students with different levels of
mathematical abilities requires a variety of approaches
from the teacher to organizing their educational and
cognitive activities, allowing for more effective use of
modern educational technologies.
CONCLUSION
A mathematics lesson in primary school in its content
serves as a comprehensive development tool for the
thought, worldview, speech of students, the
personality of the child, and occupies an important
place among other academic subjects. In the process of
mathematics classes, the mathematical literacy of
students is improved. The ability of students to
correctly, consciously and promptly understand the
essence of the task and solve them correctly grows. The
development of creative thinking during mathematics
lessons,
the
development
of
methodological
foundations for the practical application of specific
forms and methods of using innovative approaches to
organizing mathematics lessons in elementary grades,
as well as the preparation of methodological
recommendations: all this serves as a good foundation
for building a comprehensively developed student.
The use of innovative technologies in the formation of
the competence of primary school students is an
important pedagogical problem that requires an
integrated approach. The introduction of new
technologies contributes to the development of key
competencies in children, but the effective use of these
technologies requires appropriate training of teachers,
provision of educational institutions with the necessary
resources and overcoming resistance from some
participants in the educational process. In the future, it
is important to continue research in the field of
integration of innovative technologies in primary
education, which will help optimize the process of
forming competencies and improve the quality of the
educational process.
