PRINCIPLES OF A UNIVERSAL DESIGN IN A METHODICAL SYSTEM OF TEACHING COMPUTER SCIENCE STUDENTS IN INCLUSIVE GROUPS

. The article focuses on the problem of implementing the principles of universal design in the methodological system of teaching computer science for students in an inclusive education. It is proved that the embodiment of the principles of universal design in innovative techniques, information and communication technologies and training methods for the formation of general cultural and professional competencies of a future specialist requires experimental verification, which should be organized in accordance with the methodological requirements and conditions of research work. The pedagogical experiment was conducted from 2009–2019 in four stages: theoretical and analytical, experimental search, experimental and generalizing. At the theoretical and analytical stage of the pedagogical experiment, a theoretical analysis of the psychological and pedagogical scientific literature on the problem under study was carried out; methods of theoretical and experimental research, as well as criteria for the formation of professional competencies of students with special educational needs, have been developed. At the experimental-search stage, an analysis of the components of the methodological system of teaching computer science in the process of training students in inclusive classes and identifying the universal component was carried out; A ascertaining check of the pedagogical experiment is carried out. The goals, content, methods, means and forms of organization of the educational process, the methodology of their use in the learning process of student computer science are developed and investigated. At the experimental stage, the effectiveness of universal design in the methodological system of teaching computer science for students was confirmed and a formative test of the pedagogical experiment was carried out. At the generalizing stage of the pedagogical experiment, data were adjusted and systematized, general conclusions were drawn up and the expediency of introducing a methodological training system taking into account universal design in education.
