Features of the organization and conduct of competitions from computer graphics in Ukraine and abroad

Abstract

Among all forms of extracurricular work, competitions should be singled out, since they are a kind of development, formation, and evaluation of not only knowledge but also creativity students. Participation in these events allows you to assess the level of knowledge of the participants and motivate them to study the subject more deeply, identify the most capable and gifted children, and contribute to the formation and development of the educational needs of the individual. The main goals and tasks of educational competitions are the identification and development of schoolchildren's creative abilities and interest in scientific activity, the promotion of scientific knowledge, socialization, as well as the integration of general and higher education. Participation in these events contributes to broadening the horizons and intellectual growth of students helping the professional self-determination of high school students. The work highlights the peculiarities of the organization and holding of competitions in computer graphics among young people. This article are describing traditional (classical) forms (electives, special courses, elective courses, subject circles) and innovative forms (project activities, competitions, "round tables", "problem laboratories", student scientific societies, ecological camps, field classes, scientific and scientific-practical conferences, etc.). It is shown that participation in competitions allows for assessing the level of knowledge of the participants and motivates them to study the subject more deeply, identify the most capable and gifted children, and contribute to the formation and development of the educational needs of the individual. It was found that from the 5th grade, students are already ready to participate in various computer graphics competitions: to create simple drawings in a graphics editor, and in senior grades to create complex objects not only of raster or vector graphics but also of 3D-graphic. It has been confirmed that a large number of computer graphics competitions are held today, among which we note: Dnipropetrovsk Regional Competition of Computer Graphics and Animation, Mykolaiv Regional Competition of Computer Graphics, Competition of Computer Graphics "Space Ukraine", International Competition of computer graphics and web design "CreDiCo".
