THE USING OF DIGITAL TOOLS IN THE PROJECT ACTIVITIES OF STUDENTS OF PEDAGOGICAL SPECIALTIES OF HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS by Liudmyla Nezhyva, Svitlana Palamar, Nataliia Semenii

“…The main criteria for selecting digital tools were: simple interface (so students can master its functionality faster); compliance to the State Standard for Primary Education; didactic value; accessibility (the age of pupils and the ability to comprehend tasks developed with the help of the proposed digital tools were taken into account); technical and methodological support (present on all proposed digital resources, which facilitates understanding of their interface); very important criterion is the wide functionality on a free basis; the ability to adapt in various modern conditions during offline and online learning.  …”
