Digitalization-Based Pedagogical Problems in Teaching Mechanics in Uzbekistan and Ways to Overcome Them
Keywords:
Teaching mechanics, digital pedagogy, improvement of the educational process, virtual laboratories, pedagogical problems, quality of education, education system of UzbekistanAbstract
This article analyzes the current state of teaching mechanics within the education system of Uzbekistan and identifies the main pedagogical problems arising in this process. The study examines the compliance of existing curricula in mechanics with modern educational requirements, the level of professional and digital pedagogical preparedness of faculty members, as well as the state of material and technical support of educational institutions.
Furthermore, methodological and organizational issues that arise during the usage of digital educational technologies, such as virtual laboratories and interactive learning tools, are examined. The analysis made it possible to form scientifically grounded and practically proven proposals for raising the efficiency of the educational process in mechanics in the conditions of digitalization, which are accompanied by methodological recommendations for the implementation of these proposals in educational practice.
