Digital literacy as the basis of the successful professional activity of a modern teacher

Abstract

The integration of digital tools into the educational process has become especially relevant in the modern world, especially for remote schools in mountainous areas. Such technologies contribute to the individualization of the educational process, considering the needs and abilities of each student, allowing not only to improve the learning of educational material, but also have a positive impact on the development of students’ communication skills. Therefore, future teachers should have not only pedagogical knowledge, but also technical skills to use various multimedia tools for teaching students. The article highlights the results of the analysis of scientific literature on the definition of the necessary technical skills that a teacher should master to work with multimedia. It has been concluded that the effective use of multimedia in the educational process of a mountain school involves preparing students for the following areas of teacher activity: planning lessons using multimedia, using multimedia technologies during the lesson and after school hours, organizing interactive activities for students, providing support for students in working with multimedia resources, monitoring the progress of students’ knowledge and skills using multimedia technologies.
