PEDAGOGICAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL FOUNDATIONS OF PROBLEM-BASED EDUCATION

Abstract

The article considers methods for improving the process of forming geometric ideas in

primary school students based on problem-based education. The theoretical foundations of problem-based

education, the features of the perception of geometric concepts by younger students, and methods for

increasing their thinking activity are covered. In particular, special attention is paid to the creation of

problem situations, research-oriented tasks, didactic games, and methods of working in groups, which

serve to develop logical and spatial thinking. Examples of practical tasks aimed at making geometry

education more effective are presented
