Didactic individual card as a mean of implementation of student-centered teaching robotics

The article is devoted to development of engineering education, the need for the development of scientific and technical creativity, the creation of specific research laboratories for modeling, robot designing, prototyping, etc. on current trends of economic growth of the country. The author describes the results of his dissertation research and gives certain results. The article examines new approaches to the organization of engineering education in further education based on learner-centered approach and on different age groups, using modern educational methods and learning tools as well as didactic cards of individual learning, which are aimed at achieving cer- tain educational outcomes. Didactic individual cards of teaching contain in their structure certain information: detailed instructions for the design from Lego, the instructions for programming robots in a particular environ- ment, Mindstorms Education Ev3, designing and researching laboratory work, where each stage is accompanied by passing and filling some diagnostic cards that show the level of learning, give the opportunity to see how the child feels in class, to see the encountered difficulties, motivation, teamwork, etc. The organization of lessons in this approach to teaching gives the opportunity to arrange individual design and research activity of pupils and involves the use of modern methods, forms and means of training, proper organization which will positively affect the comprehensive development of the student. The author developed and tested the diagnostic individual cards for teaching students in different age groups of techniques of designing and programming robots constructed from educational designers Mindstorms Education Ev3.
