Researchers and teachers all across the world are
becoming more interested in the relatively new and
fast-emerging discipline of computer science.
Computer science is now considered a fundamental
science. The study's focus is on information, its
structure, and processing methods. In recent years, the
school subject "Informatics and IT" has progressed to
a new level of quality. Perceptions of computer
literacy, in particular, have shifted. When computer
science was first introduced in schools, it was thought
of as computer literacy, or the ability to program.
Everyone now understands that computer science is
not a programming course. Teaching high school
computer science is one of the toughest and most
intriguing jobs available today. A computer science
teacher has to keep a close eye on the development of
computer technology, the emergence of new
programs, and changes in techniques and methods of
working with them. The expert is constantly faced
with the following questions: “What and how to
teach? How do you teach a child to navigate the fast-
paced world of information technology? “To do this,
a teacher must constantly improve himself, meet
personal goals, and constantly strive to keep abreast
of what is happening in the world of information
technology and the pedagogical field.
Students' growth in modern information and
communication technologies is aided by studying
computer science in school. In the current pandemic,
practice demonstrates that pupils apply what they've
learned in computer science classes to prepare for
other subjects, such as distance communication with
teachers, for example, in the process of learning a
lesson, which, of course, is done straight from the
computer. As a result, unlike any other instructor, a
computer science teacher must keep pupils engaged
in their classes and the subject. Students' creative
growth is also influenced by informatics studies. The
computer not only keeps track of the students' work in
class, but also assists them in evaluating the benefits
and drawbacks of their knowledge, skills, and
abilities. Students should not only gain an academic
understanding of the subject in informatics classes,
but they should also gain technical knowledge of the
subject. The classification of tasks will require the

supervision of an expert depending on the
temperament of each student to ensure that the
assignments are engaging to the student. This exercise
encourages pupils to have an optimistic mindset.
They can develop more if they have an interest in
working with computers. Simply put, kids who have
mastered the usage of computers and possess the
requisite computer science knowledge and skills will
find it easier to study and master other topics in
school.
Before discussing the challenges and opportunities of
teaching computer science in secondary school, it is
necessary to address the primary issue, which is
children's comprehension of the relevance of
computer science as an academic topic and a clear
explanation of its field of application. The knowledge
of the Internet, electronic libraries and books, digital
audio-video-photo tools, mobile phones, tablets,
pocket computers and communicators, social
networks, blogs, the knowledge of the modern school
student. it is necessary to form an idea that the radical
difference between the modern school student of
about 10-20 years ago and the modern student, the
development of computer science as a science has
helped and is helping to achieve great things in the
field of science will be.
Based on the above, we can formulate the main
problems of computer science teaching:
1. School informatics is the youngest and probably
the most problematic of all school subjects (due to
the weakness of the material and technical base
and staffing).
2. The tasks solved in the study of computer science,
as well as other areas of knowledge - physics,
mathematics, astronomy, etc., therefore, the study
of computer science has a metasubject character.
3. High rates of ICT development lead to the need
for teachers to constantly use computer
periodicals, Internet resources.
4. Nowadays, children should not only be aware of
the existence of computers, but also have an
understanding of them, as well as work with them
and be able to use them. Informatics is concerned
with the methods, tools, and technology for
automating, producing, and processing objects
and processes. This science not only provides an
in-depth study of it, but also the practical
application of information, skills, and
competencies to help people modernize their
knowledge and reduce their learning load. The
fundamental knowledge and skills of working
with a personal computer as a study object
(devices, operating system, software, and
information retrieval methods) are formed. The
computer serves as both a learning tool and a tool
for completing assigned duties. Due to the
difference in the material and cultural level of
families, school students have different
opportunities to use a computer for homework, to
satisfy their interests, and this should also be
taken into account in the organization of the
learning process.
5. Computer time should be limited to 10 to 30
minutes (depending on the age of the students).
6. In most cases, the amount of computer equipment
available is insufficient, necessitating the
coordination of small groups' efforts (2-4 students
per computer)
7. In general, all of the students in the class enjoy
computer science classes, which is due to the fact
that the computer is the driving force behind
learning the subject. However, as computers
become more integrated into many aspects of
human life, this enthusiasm is waning.
8. One of the most significant issues in primary
school education is the abrupt shift in leadership
activities from this game to education. The
formation of educational activities frequently fails
to meet the child's play needs, causing him great
pain. At this point, a smooth transition from play-
based activities to education must be organized,
mostly through the use of playful didactic
computer technology. A computer science
instructor must first and foremost learn to teach
by playing.
In particular, the above problems are related to the
teaching of computer science in primary school,
because the study of computer science is an integral
part of modern general education, the formation of a
new integrated worldview and information worldview
in the younger generation, modern computer
information processing as a tool. There are different
opinions about the age at which to start teaching
children how to use a computer. Modern research by
doctors, psychologists, and teachers shows that
working with a computer while meeting hygiene and
ergonomic requirements does not adversely affect the
health of elementary school students. If you give
children space to implement their ideas quickly and
concisely without overloading them, they will more
actively develop their ability to orient themselves on
the plane, train attention and memory, and develop
imagination and creativity. In order to continuously
study the primary school course, it is necessary to
emphasize the relevance of the study of logically
complex topics at the level of timely introduction in

the propaedeutic course "Informatics and ICT" from
1st grade. The main purpose of studying the subject
of "Computer Science and ICT" in primary school is
to form in students the basics of ICT - competence,
many components of which are included in the
universal educational movement. This sets the core
values for the content of this course. The following
competencies are most valuable for the results of
meta-subject teaching, as well as for achieving a high
level of continuing education (including teaching the
subject of "Computer Science and ICT" at the
intermediate and advanced levels), which is reflected
in the course content:
1. Fundamentals of logical and algorithmic
competence, specifically the ability to master the
fundamentals of logical and algorithmic thinking,
to act in accordance with the algorithm, and to
create the simplest algorithms.
2. Funding the fundamentals of information literacy,
including methods and techniques for searching,
retrieving, and presenting information in a variety
of formats, such as text, tables, diagrams, chains,
and aggregates.
3. Learning the fundamentals of ICT abilities,
particularly how to solve information problems
using computers (and other ICT instruments).
4. The fundamentals of effective communication.
Within this subject, the aspects of communication
competence related to the reception and
transmission of information are most actively
formed. This includes aspects of linguistic
competence related to mastering the system of
information concepts and using language to
receive and transmit information.
5. Informatics classes form a systematic
understanding of the world, develop an
understanding of various natural and social
phenomena, integrated information
communication of system thinking, the level of
which is mainly determined by the ability to
quickly process information and make decisions
based on it. 'requires additional capabilities from
anesthetists. - use of more and more new methods
and training manuals [4, s.178].
The curriculum of a computer science school course
must, to some extent, reflect the present state of the
field as well as societal needs. Computer technology,
first and foremost, the rapid development of personal
computers and their software, as well as the
introduction of children to the complex world of
modern computer science, necessitates the training
and retraining of specialists capable of teaching
children the science of information using new
information technologies, as well as the training and
retraining of specialists capable of teaching children
the science of information using new information
technologies.
Solving these issues and unfinished tasks will be
unachievable without bettering teaching methods
based on computer science teaching concepts of
continuity and consistency. Informatics is
increasingly influencing the subsequent development
processes of society. It becomes a dominant factor
determining the overall potential of a society and its
development prospects. Informatization of society is
the most important component of modern civilization,
which is characterized by high levels of information
and communication technologies and advanced
information structures. Informatics is essentially
transforming from technology to a fundamental
science of information and information processes in
nature and society.
The overall educational and practical significance of
the computer science course at school is growing
steadily and rapidly. The course has great
humanitarian potential. It is already playing an
important role in preparing the younger generation for
effective activities in the information society.
