Development of Electronic Educational Resources for Studying Mathematics by Adobe Flash and HTML5 Systems at Elementary Schools

In the modern educational space, the focus on realities of the information society is an important issue relating to the provision of a high level of education informatization that implies teachers' mastering as the necessary competency and the ability to introduce electronic educational resources into educational and training practice. Adobe Flash as a platform for creating web applications and multimedia presentations enjoys the greatest popularity with users including teachers. However, because of the announcement that Adobe Flash is going to terminate its functioning in 2020, the issue of choosing a suitable analog to create web applications and presentations for teaching purposes has become particularly important. The present paper provided a comprehensive analysis of developing electronic educational resources by teachers using Adobe Flash and HTML5 for teaching mathematics at primary schools. In the present paper, we shared the experience of teaching future primary school teachers the technologies for creating multimedia and web applications, in particular with Adobe Flash and HTML5. The experience was based on teaching the special course “The Technique of Using Computer Techniques in Lessons at Primary Schools” that taught Adobe Flash in 2012-2015, and HTML5 in 2016-2017.
