Journal Title: International Journal of Research in E-learning - Year 2015, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
This paper discusses the key competencies in the 21st century in the context of a transition to a new humanistic paradigm of education as well as the results of the PISA 2012 study “Creative Problem Solving.” Contradictions between traditional skills and 21st century competencies of a school graduate are analyzed. The article also discusses contradictions between social needs of a person with a highly developed intellectual, spiritual and moral potential, and an insufficient development of theoretical and methodological bases of the student’s key com- petence development, as well as between the traditional methods of computer science teaching and the necessity to solve problems during the educational process supported by the use of ICT. The results of the application of ICT teaching methods based on the principles of humane pedagogy are presented, and their effectiveness is confirmed.
