FORMING THE AESTHETIC TASTE OF PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS IN THE PROCESS OF TEACHING RASTER GRAPHICS BY MEANS OF A TELECOMMUNICATIONS PROJECT

The article states the relevance of the formation of aesthetic taste among primary school students in the process of teaching raster computer graphics. Authors based on the analysis of psychological, pedagogical and methodological literature indicate that computer science has a great potential in forming the aesthetic taste which unfortunately often remains unclaimed. Thus the study of the most popular topic of the computer science course-computer graphics-within which one can successfully engage in aesthetic education is often reduced only to studying the functionality of graphic editors and teaching the basics of image processing. Following the above the authors formulate a contradiction, a problem, a subject, an object and a hypothesis of the article. The telecommunications project "Graphic Aesthete" was chosen as a means of achieving the goal. Authors describe its goal, scenario and examples of the implementation of the main stages in detail. In the article the working definitions of the key concepts are given: "aesthetics", "aesthetic taste", "telecommunications project". Authors describe the tasks that contribute to the development of aesthetic taste on such topics as "Color Correction", "Photo Collage", "Templates for photos", "Bokeh Effect". Students evaluate the results of their work guided by the manifestations of aesthetic taste which according to the authors of the article can be: determining the quality of photo; compliance with the norms of color correction, perspective, composition; a reasonable choice of the filters, effects, templates; evaluating the processed image from the point of view of harmony and unity. As a confirmation of the practical value of the study authors present the results of the pedagogical experiment during which an increase in the formation of indicators of aesthetic taste of students is shown. The materials of the article can be used in teaching computer graphics both in primary and high school as well as in higher and additional education.
