Abstract:

Cloud technologies opened up an access to a variety of powerful multifunctional visualization software for various purposes, the use of which allows solving the problems of intensification and humanization of the educational process, its adaptation to the needs and cognitive features of the younger generation, improving the quality and effectiveness of training and many others. However, the introduction of this tool into a broad educational practice needs the support of teachers in mastering the space of new opportunities.  The aim of the article is to develop such a classification of online visualization tools for educational information, which would serve as a reliable guide in choosing an effective tool for solving a particular pedagogical task.  The presented classification covers more than 200 modern online tools for creating visual materials. The tools are selected according to their effectiveness, functional ability and efficiency of use in pedagogical activity. Six categories of these instruments are identified according to the nature of the pedagogical tasks for which they are applied: tools for creating visual support for the presentation of educational material;  tools for the compression, systematization and structuring of educational material; tools for creating didactic games;  tools for modeling;  tools for creating a joint activity area for students and teachers; tools for the implementation of operational feedback.  Within the specified categories, the tools are grouped according to the types of the final product, a didactic tool developed using visualization technologies. In general, we are talking about 34 types of such funds. A brief general description of the functionality of each of the tool groups and a list of services for creating the corresponding didactic means are given Author Biographies Lyudmyla Bilousova, G. S.
