Abstract

Educational technologies are traditionally used in the education system for the purpose of transmitting information and teaching. In the learning process, students acquire information and interact with instructional technology. Interaction is often limited because a key is pressed and it is necessary to provide further information or answer questions posed by the program. The computer is programmed in such a way that it responds to the students' responses. This type of technology was developed by the designers who created the training machines. This kind of technology is used by teachers as "impenetrable teacher". It does not require teacher or student control over the learning process. It is important to know that students should use technologies not as programmed by teachers, but as tools for organizing knowledge. At the same time, students should use technologies as a tool which help them in learning process. Cognitive tools and learning environments combine databases, large-format spreadsheets, semantic networks, expert systems, and multimedia-hypermedia tools. But this is not all. Rather than using computer technologies to establish student interaction with the computer (which is programmed by a specialist or teacher), it is better to leave student-computer interaction to the student's discretion. This allows students to express their ideas independently. At this time, students play the role of inventors. Thus, they use the computer as a tool of understanding to analyze the world, to obtain information, to interpret their personal knowledge, and to present this knowledge to other people. Educational information is often designed to partially relieve the student of the burden of heavy thinking. In this case, the information becomes a guide for the student and directs him to the learning process. Such systems have a certain "intelligence" that is used to make decisions about the form and volume of training material.
