Abstract

The quality of training schoolchildren is the guarantee for successful implementation of educational mission in elementary school. The quality criteria include the development of creative abilities and skills of self-cognition, self-education, and self-fulfillment. Among the means of ensuring the subjective position of a primary school aged child, which create a favorable environment for the formation of readiness for self-development, the scientists distinguish design technologies that require active involvement and learner's immersion into the process of self-education. It is necessary to identify more clearly and specifically both external and internal factors that contribute to the formation of readiness in schoolchildren of elementary grades to implement project activities, to determine optimal pedagogical conditions of implementation thereof. The priority among these project activities belongs to the use of design technologies in educational process that contribute to the development of reflective skills, independent work skills, increase of creativity, activation of cognitive interest in the partnership subject-subject interaction of junior schoolchildren and teachers.
