Application of Mind-Maps to Visualize the Learning Process of Reference-Search Systems
Abstract
The article considers one of the general competencies of GEF, which is responsible for the formation of information literacy of the students of secondary vocational education (SVE), future specialists. The problem of information search is always relevant because the ability to find the necessary information in a short time that will help in solving a specific task facing a specialist is the most important competence that allows you to shorten the time, which is the only non-refillable resource. The second aspect is the fact that such information should be as complete and relevant as possible to the currently solved task.
The purpose of the study is to identify the features and prospective directions of using Mindmaps in teaching students to work with reference retrieval system in secondary vocational schools.
In the course of the study, an online survey of 160 students of the State Budgetary Professional Educational Institution the Moscow College of Social Workers Training was conducted to identify their level of proficiency in information search. The results of the survey showed that students do not have knowledge in deep search among scientific materials, professional databases and documents that are widely represented on the world’s Wide Web, as well as students do not use e-library.
It is shown that for the professional development and employment of future graduates of the system of secondary vocational education, there is a need to increase the effectiveness of training in working with reference retrieval systems by using Mind-maps. These maps provide an increase in the efficiency of the process of memorizing difficult to perceive material within the discipline by structuring and systematizing information in a special visual form.
The analysis of its software (a fragment of the Mind-maps) was carried out, and it was revealed that the X-Mind program has a number of advantages. Recommendations for the Mind-maps drafting are given, and the stages of the training session where they can be applied are displayed. The Mind-map of "Reference legal systems" was developed and was used in the study of the topic "Information technologies for the use of the computer-assisted legal research".
