The goal of our research work is to study the effectiveness of innovative methods of teaching biology. It is difficult to keep the attention of modern students in one direction, because social networks, society, and the development of time are affecting it. Innovative teaching methods increase the student's activity, help in understanding biological terms, their content, memorizing them and increasing their ability to use them in practice. To test the effectiveness of the innovative method, we decided to compare it with the traditional method. We used the following types of innovative methods: technological integration, project-based learning, gamification, experience-based learning, differentiated learning, video and audio lessons, mobile applications. We trained Group B with these methods for 2 weeks, while Group A was taught only with traditional methods. In the traditional method, we lectured only on the topic, students explained what they understood and answered the question. When we taught Group B, we used a combination of innovative methods. For example, audio and video lessons, as well as gamification, were used to explain a lesson on “Ecological Pyramids.” And for tasks related to the topic, mobile applications and project-based learning were used. In the topic “Study of the consistency of ecosystems in your region with the illumination of statistical methods of analysis” the method of learning based on experience was used. |
