Abstract

The formation of information and communication environment requires the modernization of the system of education. Today it is extremely necessary not only to increase the level of education of people, but also the formation of a new type of intelligence, a way of thinking that determines people's attitudes to the rapidly changing economic, technological and social realities of the world.

The article lists a number of personal qualities inherent in creative people, namely: the desire to achieve the goal; high level of motivation; well-developed self-confidence, analytical and problem-solving enthusiasm, willingness to take risks and accept failure; the ability to connect various unrelated elements or objects, etc.

The necessity of overcoming the reproductive type of education and transition to such an educational system, which could fully ensure the cognitive activity and independence of students' thinking is substantiated.

The analysis of the problems of project-based learning is conducted; a number of differences between project-based and traditional means of learning is identified, namely: the loss of the leading role of the teacher in the educational process passing it to the student; violation of the main condition of traditional education, which is manifested by the presence of ready-to- assimilate, systematized knowledge, prepared for a student beforehand in order to be mastered; the subject (student) him/herself composes his/her project from a set of knowledge and concepts; the main element of the educational process is not knowledge, but information.

It is determined that the educational environment of the school on the basis of ICTs is a multidimensional individualized self-organized integrity, saturated with all necessary components, first of all information and communication, which enables the individual functioningin it to develop his/her abilities and ensure his/her self-realization and personal growth. ICT is also identified as one of the means of developing the creativity of a modern student.

It is proved that schools with educational environment focused on the creative development of students can use a variety of teaching aids and greatly improve students’ academic successfulness.
