Abstract

The article deals with the competence-based approach to teaching primary school children. Special attention is paid to teaching computer science. Due to the fact that the subject is relatively new, there is a need for development and implementation of the ways of competence-based approach realization in teaching computer science at primary school according to the programme “Steps to Computer Science”. The analysis of scientific research and publications makes it possible to determine that the technologies of activity and student-centered teaching can be of use for implementing competence-based approach. Teacher’s selection of effective training methods and educational activity forms is the most important factor in the successful implementation of the competence-based approach in education. A group of interactive methods corresponds to the requirements of student-centered teaching in the most accurate way, as long as the organization of interactive training includes simulations of life situations, the use of role-playing games, which contribute to the formation of key, general educational, and subject- informatics competencies. The prospects for further research involve development of the means of implementation of competence-based approach to teaching computer science to primary school students according to the content of the programme, its parts and topics.
