- Research of theoretical problems of development of critical thinking of schoolchildren in the framework of extracurricular education.
- Development of individual learning trajectories taking into account the level of training and interests of each student.
- Using artificial intelligence for automatic generation of personalized recommendations, analysis of academic performance and selection of appropriate educational resources.
- Creating tools for the development of critical thinking in schoolchildren appropriate to the level of knowledge and age characteristics of each child.
- To develop an educational platform with the help of artificial intelligence technologies using gamification methods and to implement a set of digital tools focused on the development of critical thinking of schoolchildren
A comprehensive educational platform called Meta_Ozat will be developed. Meta_Ozat aims to integrate artificial intelligence and gamification to promote the personalized development of critical thinking in schoolchildren in extracurricular education. The platform will include various digital tools designed to develop critical thinking, creativity, and independent problem solving.
- at least 2 (two) articles in journals from the first three quartiles of the impact factor in the Web of Science database or having a CiteScore percentile of at least 50 in the Scopus database.
Other results:
- Creation of electronic intellectual service oriented to increase the level of extracurricular education of schoolchildren through gamification.
- Creation of an extensive database including literature, encyclopedias and scientific works for additional reading.
- Creating a search engine to select literature suitable for extracurricular reading.
- Implementing artificial intelligence algorithms to recommend materials for extra reading based on user questionnaires.
- Developing AI algorithms to generate personalized questions and assignments based on the texts read.
- Providing tools aimed at developing students' critical thinking skills.
