Electronic textbook forms (EFU) are becoming more and more popular in schools. They save the teacher's time in preparing for the lesson and make the classes much more varied and interesting for the student. Share useful tips on the use of EFU in the classroom and at home, in preparation.

1. Please select optimal model using EFU in the lesson or combine different models in accordance with the goals (expected results) and the available material and technical support of the educational process.
2. For work in the lesson, it is better to use similar software technical specifications devices. BYOD can lead to digital divide.
3. Make the use of EFU resources thoughtful, systematic, and accessible to students. Create a guide to e-learning resources. Use a variety of digital resources along with EFU depending on the educational objectives.
4. Rely on paragraph 10.18 of SanPiN when planning and conducting a lesson, determining the volume homework with EFU.
5. Use the EFU simulators to organize self-examination and reflection of students, not for control.
6. Make the most of the capabilities of the electronic devices you work with: give students the opportunity to create their own educational product.

How to make the application of EPH in educational process effective and useful, says Sergey Kutuzov, a methodologist for electronic forms of textbooks of the joint publishing group "DROFA - VENTANA".

- What is the electronic form of the textbook?

The exact requirements for this species educational literature fixed in order No. 870 of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation dated July 18, 2016. According to this document, this is an electronic publication that matches in structure, content and design printed form textbook and at the same time is equipped with multimedia elements, simulators, interactive links, expanding and supplementing the content of the textbook, depending on the specifics of a particular subject.

For example, in geography lessons, interactive maps are used, stories - animated videos of various events, in the study of art - 3D models of architectural monuments.

- What prevents the use of EFU at school?

Firstly, these are the fears of parents and teachers about the negative impact of the computer on the health of children, and secondly, the lack of necessary competencies among teachers, since the use of digital technologies requires a restructuring of the usual lesson model.

- Are schools adequately equipped to use EFU?

There are not many schools in the country with the maximum equipment - “1 student - 1 computer”. But this does not mean that in all other cases the use of ESP is excluded. I am often told: at our school we do not have tablets for each student, which means that we cannot use electronic textbooks. The answer is: you can, if you choose the right model.

The simplest and probably the most common option: the teacher's computer - a projector - an interactive whiteboard, which are available in almost every school and can be used by the teacher in frontal work along with the tasks of the simulator.

If the teacher does not have a computer, the students do not have tablets in the classroom, or the teacher thinks that an electronic textbook is not needed in class, that it will cost by traditional abroad, and in Russia. The essence of this model is that children learn at home new material at the basic level, at the level of recognition-reproduction, and at the lesson in the classroom one or another topic is analyzed in more detail. For example, in geography in the 5th grade, the topic "Plan of the area" is studied. At home, using the electronic form of the textbook, the student can learn to identify legend on the terrain plan, and in the classroom in the lesson under the guidance of a teacher to work out the application of the knowledge gained, including in the form of a workshop or in a game form.

In biology lessons, before starting to work with a microscope, the children at home get to know the device of this device with the help of an electronic textbook, determine its components. Then go directly to the implementation of the workshop and discussion of the experiments.

If the school has a computer lab or a mobile classroom, then in this case the teacher can organize the work of students either in pairs behind electronic devices, or using the "Change of working areas" model, when students are divided into groups, each of which is given specific tasks: for example, some work with a computer, others work with printed publications, and still others work directly with a teacher. Students' activities change every 5-10 minutes.

The optimal model for the use of digital technologies in education is “1 student - 1 computer”. Each student has a computer or tablet with which he can work in class at school or at home. In this case, the teacher has freedom of choice. different types activities, including with an emphasis on individual tasks.

So before choosing effective model the use of the electronic form of the textbook, the teacher needs to evaluate the available equipment, the conditions in which he works, and the goals that he sets. If a teacher wants to save time on preparing for classes, this can be a frontal work mode. If you want to diversify the lesson, make it more interesting - it can be the model "Change of working areas". If it seeks to provide children with greater independence - the model "Upside Down Class".

Today, almost every student has electronic devices. Why not use them for lesson work?

This model is called Bring Your Own Device (BYOD). On the one hand, it is democratic, but, on the other hand, it is inconvenient to use it in the classroom, since it will be difficult for the teacher to navigate in such a variety of devices. Some students have new and fast gadgets, while others have older or cheaper gadgets that do not have sufficient speed. The application of this model can lead to the emergence of digital inequality due to the difference technical parameters devices.

- The electronic textbook contains a lot of information: video, interactive and simulators. How to navigate this diversity for the teacher and the children?

- The teacher needs to analyze what objects, tools, additional materials are in the electronic textbook, correlate them with his program, understand when which elements can be used, and create a guide to the electronic educational resources of the EFU for students, if they have electronic textbooks at their disposal. detailed information about electronic textbooks of the publishing group "DROFA - VENTANA" is posted on the website, they are available on the educational platform LECTA ().

In addition, there are many educational resources on the Internet that you can also use in the lesson. One electronic textbook cannot replace the whole variety of electronic and any other teaching aids, therefore it is necessary to give children the opportunity to choose the most suitable, most interesting resources. For example, there is a free service Atlas + (), which allows you to prepare, including for exams, using maps and atlases on history and geography. The teacher can recommend a list of sites for the children that they can use to learn about certain topics.

- Working with EFU at school is limited in time. How should a teacher take this into account in his activities?

These requirements are regulated by SanPiN 2.4.2.2821-10 in paragraph 10.18. It states that in grades 1-2, students can work with LCD screens continuously for 20 minutes, in grades 3-4 - 25 minutes, in grades 5-6 - 30 minutes, and in 7-11 - 35 minutes. Is it a lot or a little? In the same normative document(SanPiN) there is a point that says that every 10-15 minutes it is necessary to change the type of activity in the lesson. Therefore, every teacher using EFU should carefully study this document and take into account its requirements in the lesson.

The electronic form of the textbook has a simulator. Some teachers use it not only to test the student's knowledge, but also to assess it, immediately putting a mark in electronic journal... Is it correct?

I would not advise doing this. Still, the electronic form of the textbook and the simulators that it contains are, first of all, tools for self-control and self-examination of the student, and the ability to control one's activities in the process of achieving a result is one of the requirements of the Federal State Educational Standard. The EFU simulators allow the child to receive instant feedback and, if necessary, return to the training material for revision.

- Modern electronic devices have a lot of possibilities. How to apply them in the lesson?

Any electronic device can have a built-in calculator, compass, photo, video camera, dictaphone, additional applications for creating presentations, animations, videos. All this should be used in joint activities teachers and students to create a new educational product. Let the children not only watch a beautiful demonstration of the experience in an electronic form of the textbook, but also repeat this experience at home or in the classroom, record this experience on video, post it on YouTube, the school website or social network page. This will be the best proof that the students have not only mastered the theoretical material, but also creatively rethought it.

- How to ensure student activity through the use of EFU?

In itself, the use of certain electronic forms or teaching aids does not guarantee results. It is important to correctly combine various forms and teaching methods, on which the coefficient of material assimilation depends. Thus, according to a study carried out at the initiative of Samsung in October 2012, a student assimilates 5% of the information from a teacher's lecture, independent reading of the text provides 10% of assimilation, audiovisual methods and demonstrations of objects, models - 20% and 30%, respectively. But the real and most fruitful activity is the activity of the participants themselves: group discussions, practical lessons provide 40 to 60% effective learning. This must be borne in mind when organizing the educational process using any teaching aids - traditional or innovative.

Many teachers are skeptical about the electronic textbook, because they often perceive it as their competitor, which in the near future will replace them at the blackboard. Do you share these concerns?

In fact, this is not the case. The e-textbook is just a tool in the hands of the teacher that encourages children to feel, think and create.

The main thing about EFU: what you need to know about the electronic form of the textbook

Step by step, new elements are included in the educational process - interactive tests and simulators, new forms of information presentation, multimedia presentations. It's getting harder for the teacher to navigate modern lesson without using electronic educational resources, including the electronic form of the textbook.

EFU is an electronic publication, a kind of "satellite" of a printed textbook, designed to expand and supplement its content. EFU corresponds to a printed textbook in structure, content and artistic design, but contains additional material- various multimedia elements and interactive links.

Competent use of EFU is one of the key requirements for a modern teacher. Since 2016, each of the paper textbooks included in the federal list must be submitted in electronic form. This requirement is enshrined in the order of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation No. 870. But in order to use the EFU at full capacity, you need to understand well what kind of resource it is, what are its features and advantages over a paper textbook.

Most often, teachers do not enjoy all the advantages of the EFU, since, in their opinion, the electronic form of the textbook has equivalent alternatives - digital copies and interactive applications To teaching aids... Strictly speaking, this is not entirely true.

EFU is not a textbook attachment, since there is not necessarily a clear structure in the application and not all elements are tied to specific topics. To use the materials in the application, to select and assemble them, the teacher will have to spend a lot of time. In addition, even a very high-quality application can diversify the educational process, but in no way replace a textbook.

EFU is not a digital copy of a textbook... There is no convenient search, no multimedia and interactive elements.

EFU is not a substitute for a paper textbook, but its obligatory addition, with which it is much more convenient to study according to the chosen teaching and learning method and teach children in full accordance with the requirements of the Federal State Educational Standard.

This publication, together with workbooks, a notebook for laboratory work and methodological guide for teachers is included in the educational and methodological kit in physics for the 7th grade of general education organizations. The textbook presents the section "Mechanical phenomena" (kinematics, dynamics, statics, hydro- and aerostatics), as well as the introductory topic of the course of the basic school " Physical methods study of nature ". The kit is part of the "Algorithm for Success" system. Electronic form of the textbook (EFU) Physics. Grade 7 is included in the educational-methodical set (TMC) on the subject of Physics Grade 7 Khizhnyakova L. S. Sinyavina A. A. Physics. Grade 7 meets the requirements of the Federal State Educational Standard. EFU is recommended by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation.

The main advantages of the EFU over the traditional textbook:

A modern approach to presenting information... The material in EFU is presented widely and clearly: an abundance of illustrations, audio, video, slide shows make it easy to achieve all the goals and objectives of training.

Interactive submission forms... The student has the opportunity to take tests, complete assignments and receive instant feedback. Mastering knowledge and consolidating the results with the help of interactive elements takes place in a fun way - with minimal time expenditure on the part of the teacher.

Convenient navigation... The interactive table of contents enables fast and technologically advanced searches across all content - just like in e-book... In the text of the textbook, you can search for the desired fragment by keywords. It is possible to quickly move from one section of the textbook to another.

Compactness... All material of all EFU is placed on one electronic medium: minimum space in the student's portfolio and maximum useful information that is always with you.

Free handling of information... Working with EFU, the teacher can supplement the materials for the lessons with their own developments, multimedia objects, and the student can independently select and study information from a reliable, verified source.

What does the use of EFU give the teacher?

Work comfort... EFU allows you to quickly and easily organize preparation for the lesson, save time and select all the necessary content.

Training according to the Federal State Educational Standard. The use of EFU makes it possible to easily form a modern information and educational environment, which is one of the basic requirements of the Federal State Educational Standard.

Well-established control system... With the help of EFU, it is much easier to get feedback after studying each topic.

The ability to combine different shapes learning. With EFU, the teacher can easily establish the process of distance and blended learning.

The textbook complies with the Federal State Educational Standard of Secondary (Complete) General Education, is recommended by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation and is included in the Federal List of Textbooks. The textbook implements the following goals of teaching the Russian language at the basic level: introducing students through the study of the language to the values ​​of national and world culture; deepening and generalization of knowledge about the language as a multifunctional developing system; improving the ability to analyze linguistic facts, creatively process information; development of oral and written speech from the point of view of the effective achievement of the set communication tasks. Electronic form of the textbook (EFU) Russian language. Grade 11 is included in the educational and methodological kit (TMC) on the subject Russian language grade 11 Pakhnova T. M. Russian language. Grade 11 meets the requirements of the Federal State Educational Standard. EFU is recommended by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation.

Another important nuance: the work of students and teachers with EFU is strictly regulated. After purchasing the electronic form of the textbook, all students are issued a license valid for 500 days from the date of uploading to electronic device... To activate licenses, students only need to go to any web browser and open the tutorial.

EFU technical support is usually handled by the company from which you purchased the EFU. For example, lecta provides its customers with a free technical support- both by phone (a call from any region of Russia is free) and by e-mail... Another convenience: you can work with EFU both online and offline, that is, both with an Internet connection and without it.

Technical requirements for the use of EFU on the LECTA educational platform:

Operating system - Windows (not older than Windows 7), Android (not older than 4.1), iOS (not older than iOS 8);

Screen resolution 1024 × 768 or more;

Processor at least 1 GHz;

RAM from 1GB;

Also, to download the tutorials, you will need about 16 GB of free disk space.

In general, EFU should not be taken as another optional addition to the educational publication. It is a separate digital product in which the textbook material is presented in a variety of interactive forms... It gives the student the opportunity to quickly find the information they need, complete interesting, unusual tasks and get an objective assessment of their work. The teacher, in turn, EFU allows you to quickly and easily prepare for lessons, select tasks for each student and monitor his personal progress.

The textbook continues the author's line on the course "Social Studies" for grades 5-9. His material is devoted to issues related to social norms, legal status and children's rights, as well as law enforcement functions. The tutorial contains illustrations, diagrams, tables. The methodological apparatus for each paragraph includes a variety of multi-level questions and tasks for collective and independent work, topics for project activities, statements of scientists, writers and extracts from documents for reading, analysis and discussion, vocabulary lesson. The textbook also includes five workshops to consolidate the material covered. The textbook is written in accordance with the Federal State Educational Standard of Basic General Education, included in the Federal List. Electronic form of the textbook (EFU) Social studies. Grade 7 is included in the educational and methodological kit (TMC) on the subject of Social Science Grade 7 Nikitin AF Nikitina TI Social Science. Grade 7 meets the requirements of the Federal State Educational Standard. EFU is recommended by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation.

, Lesson using an electronic textbook , Competition "Electronic textbook in the classroom" , Video tutorial

Russian language. Grade 1 (T.M. Andrianova, V.A. Ilyukhina. Russian language. 2015, pp. 4-5), a fragment of the lesson using an electronic textbook.

Place and role of the lesson in the studied topic "Speech oral and written". 1 lesson in this section.

Lesson type:“Discovery of new knowledge”.

The purpose of the lesson: create conditions for the formation of initial ideas about oral and written speech, about language as a means of communication. Using an electronic form

Lesson Objectives:

• on a practical level, distinguish between the cases of the use of oral and written speech;
• to acquaint students with methods of preserving and transmitting oral and written speech;
• learn about the origin of words from electronic etymological dictionary;
• spend independent work self-test (mini-testing of concepts: oral and written speech by electronic textbook).

Note ... The video focuses on the use of EFU in the educational process. The fragment does not represent the types of written work in the lesson, however, this work was carried out within the framework of a holistic lesson. Within the framework of the system-activity approach during the electronic mini-testing, work was organized in pairs and groups. The guys distributed roles within the group, exercised self-control and mutual control in groups, and directed each other. In the lesson fragment, this form of work is shortened.

Preparing for this lesson, asked myself next questions: How to effectively use this teaching tool in the lesson and what is it for?

The place of using the EFU in the lesson.

I think that at the stage of setting the problem and confirming the topic of the lesson, it is appropriate to use the EFU.

At the stage of consolidation and control during mini-testing.

What is the optimal amount of time to work with it? At what level?

We must not forget that in accordance with the SanPiN norms and the introduction of new requirements from 01.01.16, changed on November 24, 2015 (Resolution of the Chief State Sanitary Doctor of the Russian Federation of November 24, 2015 No. 81), it is necessary to strictly alternate during the lesson different kinds educational activities, and the continuous duration of the work of students directly with the interactive whiteboard in the lessons in grades 1-4 should not exceed 5 minutes ... The total duration of using the interactive whiteboard in the classroom 1-2 is not more than 25 minutes. Therefore, the work with EFU in the lesson was carried out in fragments.

I understand that this should not only be a decoration of the lesson, but really facilitate my work, reduce the time of explaining new material, speeding up the process of perception, comprehension and consolidation. And in the first class motivate b and serve it dosed.

Having studied the subject content of the electronic textbook, I was convinced that it is useful to display some tasks on the big screen and conduct a collective discussion of the solution. With the advent of the class interactive whiteboard work in the lesson acquired a different aspect. Students with not fake interest strive to go to the blackboard to try their hand and show their knowledge. A number of tasks are problematic, some cause difficulties, and the role of the board is played by a large screen, the dialogue is built first at the board. When completing assignments, children can make mistakes, so corrective work on the big screen is simply necessary in elementary school.

Thanks to the introduction of EFU, the teacher has the opportunity to economically spend time preparing for the lesson, in particular, on its design: illustrative material. The aesthetic aspect of this lesson design is also important. But, of course, we must not forget that such a frontal model of work with the use of an ESP, only as a presentation, is a one-sided approach.

In the 2015-2016 academic year, I use electronic forms of textbooks in practice. The children of my class are provided with printed educational materials and, according to the wishes of their parents, have an EFU. Because there is no mobile class, we still use laptops.

At the start of implementation of the project, I conducted a survey among parents students. At the parents' meeting, we discussed the use of modern information technologies in educational activities.

Problems.

However, today there are problems, there are technical issues: there is no mobile class, today we use CD-disks for subjects, because there were certain difficulties with logging into the system, not all tablets load disks, loaded laptops. There are certain requirements.

The device must have a screen of at least 10 inches (otherwise it shows indistinctly or too shallow)

Although there are problems, it is no longer possible not to use this modern advantage for the benefit of the education of our children. The advantages of EFU are undeniable: modernity, versatility, convenience, methodological design and technically competent interactive developments, etc.

THE USE OF ELECTRONIC FORMS OF TEXTBOOKS (EFU) IN THE EDUCATIONAL PROCESS OF A RURAL SCHOOL

Deputy Director for Water Resources Management, MOU

"Average comprehensive school with. Bagaevka of the Saratov district of the Saratov region named after the Hero Soviet Union N. V. Kotlova "

The key to effective educational activities in information society is the teacher's professional competencies that allow you to continuously master innovative educational and technologies, as well as contribute to the formation of students' abilities to manage their actions. The teacher is always the first to react to the transformations taking place in the field of education, showing a creative approach in the context of a continuously expanding list of educational technologies, the use of which in the educational process undoubtedly requires the formation of new professional competencies.

In the 2015-2016 academic year, our school takes part in the approbation of electronic forms of the textbook of technology (Sinitsa N.V., Simonenko V.D. "Technology of housekeeping" grade 7 - M .: Ventana-Graf, 2015). This is a serious job that requires the teacher to understand the realities. modern education and the ability to properly structure their pedagogical activities. In the course of approbation, the teacher needs to draw conclusions and recommendations for improving the EFU in the “diary of approbation”. It is necessary to record observations, accumulate remarks, comments and suggestions for each paragraph, chapter, section, make an analysis of its advantages and disadvantages.

To work with EFU, it is enough to have the skills of an ordinary user of a desktop or mobile computer(installation of programs, work with the main daily used applications, work on the Internet).

The Azbuka system allows the school to choose the most convenient options for using electronic educational content. There are several options for using it:

Each of the options has its own pros and cons. But our school has a computer class, a multimedia projector, and some of the children have and can bring their mobile devices to the lesson. Therefore, in our conditions, we can fully use the version of the demo mode and partially the options "computer class" and "BYOD Model".

In the demo mode, it is convenient for the teacher to work, and more difficult for the children. Someone reads, writes, completes tasks faster and does not have the opportunity to go to another page. Not all children can bring tablets to class. And the parents themselves are still distrustful, and some are passive, towards EFU. Tablets and laptops can fail for many reasons (dropped, out of charge, etc.), which is an additional problem for the teacher. It is also worth noting that long-term work with tablet screens does not affect the vision of children in the best way.

There was a problem in getting access to the EFU. Registration of students in the system is laborious. When transferring EFU to students, only 5 out of 17 received a license and access to the textbook, although all were registered, enrolled in the group.

But it is quite simple to use the EFU according to the technology; special skills are not required here. The paragraph materials match exactly the printed textbook. Less time is spent preparing for the lesson, coming up with new interesting techniques for presenting the material. EFU provides a wide field of opportunities to quickly and effortlessly bring variety, clarity to the lesson, and increase interest in the subject. I would like to note the presence of additional features that are not available in printed edition: information files; Fast passage from one chapter to another, from lesson to lesson, the ability to leave bookmarks, adjust the font size, increase all pictures and diagrams. For better assimilation by students of the textbook material, each section contains multimedia practical and control and measuring tasks in which the student can arbitrarily manipulate the presented pieces of information to achieve the correct result (compare them by connecting them with lines; arrange in the correct order, etc.). In them, after receiving information about the error, it is possible to repeat the task with a repeated check of the achieved result. Such works arouse great interest among students, make it possible to exercise self-control. At the end of the textbook there are also small final test tasks, which is also very convenient.

There is still very little informational material in the EFU technology - there are several interactive illustrative materials (a collection of coins, embroidery, culinary dishes, etc.) and only two video fragments on the topic "Embroidery". And in order to increase the visibility of the educational material, the development of the cognitive interest of students, especially rural schools, video and audio materials, interactive illustrative materials, additional material from history, the section “This is interesting” should be in almost every lesson. We hope that soon all this will be included in the EFU technology.

The teacher does not use the printed textbook during the whole lesson. Likewise, the use of EFU does not imply continuous work with it: students can refer to the electronic textbook at certain stages of the lesson to solve learning objectives set by the teacher, without violating the requirements of SanPin.

We conducted a survey of students participating in approbation and their parents on the introduction of EFU in the educational process. According to the survey results, 93% of students have constant access to at least one device (computer, laptop, netbook, tablet, reader), 80% have constant access to the Internet, most want to use EFU in the educational process, but only 40% believe that to study will become more interesting.

Parents are more wary of EFU. In their opinion, only 20% have a positive attitude to the use of EFU in the educational process, 40% - negatively and 40% have not decided yet. 20% of parents are ready to purchase optional equipment, which children can take with them to lessons, but 33% of children already have it.

It can be noted that, in general, both students and parents and teachers have a positive attitude towards the introduction of electronic forms of textbooks into the educational process. For the next academic year, we plan to provide EFU in literature, physics, biology, geography up to 40% of students.
