Methods of didactic design in e-learning sphere based on mind maps

Abstract

This article explains the mind maps usage according to e-didactics, solving different problems of e-didactics. Main advantages and disadvantages of mind maps according to advantages and disadvantages of computer tools of education, typical structure of the training program’s step, and also methods of construction and analysis of a mind map for didactic projection are given. The article also discusses how to control the process of learning outcomes’ writing using technologies of mind maps with evaluation of disciplines connected with associations of constructed mind map and evaluation of strength of interdisciplinary connections, how to describe the descriptions of competencies in accordance with educational standards, detail competencies and elementary learning outcomes, find different categories of competencies and evaluate their relationship. Algorithm for constructing and analyzing a mind map for the didactic design is presented. The article provides statistical data confirming the effectiveness of using the proposed method for constructing and analyzing mind maps during different stages of didactic design.
