Computer graphics as an aspect of the formation of information competence

 

Informatization in modern society has led to a change in the existing content of school computer science course based on the introduction of its new information technology, in connection with this was changed an approach to the preparation of competitive specialists. At present there is a problem of developing methods of teaching computer graphics in computer science with modern social demands and removes the contradictions between the high level of development of efficient processing of graphic, textual, numerical information and the level of methodical preparation of future competitive specialists.

It is necessary to use conceptually new approaches to the use of new technologies in art and design education, new methods and techniques, approaches and forms of education which would meet the requirements of our time.

Currently, there is a need in the introduction section of informatics, such as computer graphics.

Computer graphics is a synthetic object, connecting knowledge, technology and aesthetics of drawing, painting with computer technologies.

At present no computer graphics can not do any print edition, no advertisement or video clip. The root cause of this popularity is the extremely large image processing capabilities available in electronic form. All that other arts professionals create for years, often a computer designer creates a few hours.

To do this a person must have only artistic taste and knowledge as a basic artistic and in the field of applied graphics programs, all the rest of the graphics program will do itself.

The development of computer graphics involves the formation of information skills, as well as many-sided training in new information technologies.

In the design and construction of the course teaching techniques of computer graphics require the most effective way of training and learning activities of students with the development of their skills and accumulated experiences of the computer training.

The combination of traditional and new media in teaching computer graphics must eliminate stereotyped classes, make them more interesting and provide a higher level of assimilation of the material.

Naturally, there are many unresolved in the learning process: the scientific and methodical, psychological, pedagogical and other problems.

Preparation of a modern competitive specialist implies the knowledge of possession methodology, based on modern examples of understanding reality, which involves the use of modern information technologies and the ability to work with information and communication technologies, local and global computer networks, with modern software, graphics raster, vector and three-dimensional graphics, multimedia.

Another aspect of the formation of the information competence in the study of computer graphics is the production of newsletters, brochures, fliers, their own low-circulation newspapers and books, active participation in competitions, contests of various levels, in the work of scientific societies and so on.

This can help computer science dealing with methods for creating and editing images using information and communication technologies.

In connection with the introduction of the course "Computer graphics", it is necessary to enter the achievement of which will be formed of competence.

        Formation of information culture, meet the requirements of information society;

        Working out understanding of the purpose and the foundations of computer graphics;

        Development of special terminology;

        Familiarity   with   some   of the   features   raster   graphics   editor   Adobe Photoshop;

        Cooperation in teams in different age groups;

        Development of artistic taste and imagination, the creative activity of students.

With successful implementation and use of the course "Computer Graphics" can provide the following information competence:

        Scope of computer graphics;

        Features, advantages and disadvantages of raster graphics;

        Features, advantages and disadvantages of vector graphics;

        Methods of describing colours in computer graphics, colour models;

        How to get colours on the monitor and printer;

        Ways to store images in files of raster and vector formats;

        Image data compression techniques;

        Bases of computer typesetting.
