I am L.S. Zhampeisova, a 4th-year student of the educational program 6B01201 – “Preschool education and upbringing”, I am undergoing industrial (pedagogical) practice from 30.01.2023 to 07.04.2023 on the basis of the KGKP “Nursery-garden “Altyn Saka” of the city of Karaganda.
As part of the practice, on February 24, 2023, she took part in a workshop for teachers of preschool organizations “STEM technology as the development of intellectual abilities and involvement in scientific and technical creativity of preschoolers through the LEGO planetasy educational module”, organized on the basis of the KGKP “Nursery-garden “Tilek” of the city of Karaganda. Teachers of preschool organizations of the city of Karaganda took part: KGKP “Nursery-garden “Tilek”, “Nursery-garden “Aigolek”, “Nursery-garden “Altyn saka”.
During the seminar, I was able not only to raise awareness in the direction of lego construction and robotics, but also to get acquainted with the experience of teachers in introducing robotics into the educational process. The organizers of the seminar held contests with teachers, where they had the opportunity to play the role of a child and understand that not everything is as simple as it seems at first glance.
Such works as: “Journey to legoland”, “Fantasize with lego”, “logo rhythmics”, “Journey to a fairy tale with lego” were presented, and as a result, a reflection was carried out in the form of a quick test “LEGO quiz”.
It was interesting for me to take part in the discussion of the problem of the development of constructive activity, technical creativity of preschoolers through the use of STEM technology and robotics, since the topic of the seminar is related to my thesis and I will use the knowledge gained when writing my graduation paper.
Each of those present expressed their own opinion about what they saw and made suggestions to the participants and organizers of the seminar. Teachers noted the relevance of the declared topic of the seminar, a clear, accessible, structured, interesting presentation of the material by the speakers, dynamism, mobility of the organization.
I express my gratitude to the organizers and participants of the seminar for the opportunity to get acquainted with the experience of introducing lego technologies and robotics into the educational process. It was very interesting, informative, creative!
