Before widespread introduction of gadgets and interactive whiteboards in schools, it is necessary to conduct long-term research, limiting the scale of the experiment, said the deputy head of the Department of Clinical Physiology and Non-Drug Methods of Therapy FPK MR MI RUDN, Federal State Budgetary Scientific Institution “National Research Institute of Public Health. ON THE. Semashko "Lilia Ivanova on June 14 at the round table" Compliance of the innovative educational platform MES (Moscow Electronic School) with the norms of sanitary legislation SanPiN. Domestic research base for using the latest electronic devices in the learning process."
Speaking about electronic teaching aids, a healthcare specialist drew attention to the fact that in a catastrophic situation with the health of students, untested technologies are massively introduced into schools.
According to Ivanova, before the large-scale introduction of gadgets into the learning process, it is necessary to conduct long-term research for a period of at least 10 years, as well as develop norms for their application, with the involvement of psychologists, psychophysiologists, clinicians and healthcare organizers. The expert pointed out that Russia cannot adopt the "best" foreign practices, since in a number of Western countries, where children use information technologies from a very early age, the public and the expert community are already sounding the alarm.
Ivanova drew attention to the fact that the physiology of junior schoolchildren has not yet settled down and for some of them it is enough to work with the gadget for 15 minutes to lose the opportunity to hold attention until the end of the lesson. The expert is convinced that only high school students can use gadgets with greater benefit.
The specialist also urged to think about the goal of early and massive introduction of e-learning tools. The expert is convinced that if in 10 years the state needs to have a thinking, creative generation able to create, create, invent, then when using information technologies from kindergarten this becomes impossible, since early acquaintance with electronic means kills all these positive qualities. According to Ivanova, it is necessary to intensively introduce information technologies, if in 10 years the state wants to have something trained and in something degrading people who will not have developed basic physiological skills.
Note, according to the MES developers, “smart” interactive desks, interactive whiteboards, tablets and other modern multimedia gadgets are designed to give modern schoolchildren a new quality of education, but a number of experts say that this environment is hostile to children's health, and the leveling of the role of teachers and automation pedagogical tasks will have devastating consequences for the younger generation.
