Abstract

The article develops and substantiates the methodology for creating environmental educational products to form an ecological worldview in students. To achieve the goal, a number of tasks have been defined: 1. Develop and justify a structural and functional model for creating innovative environmental educational digital products. 2. Identify the stages of the methodology for creating digital products on environmental topics for students. To achieve the goal and the defined tasks, the following methods were used: comparative analysis, structural and logical, systemic, generalization and systematization of pedagogical experience. Results. A structural and functional model for creating innovative environmental educational digital products has been developed, which contains functional-target, theoretical and methodological, activity and performance components. The approaches (systemic, integration-subject, project-research, interactive-game, multimedia-communicative, digital-analytical) and principles (systematicity, scientific validity, activity and interactivity, competence, accessibility and differentiation, transformability) that are the scientific basis of the developed model are identified. The stages of creating ecological educational digital products are defined and characterized, namely: analytical-diagnostic, conceptual-design, technological-instrumental, content-didactic, interactive-design, approbation-implementation, evaluation-reflective. The cognitive, motivational and behavioral criteria for the formation of the ecological worldview of education seekers are identified, which are differentiated by high, medium and low levels. It was determined that the main result of the developed model is the creation and functioning of an ecological educational digital product, which is a technological tool and a high-quality environment for the formation of an ecological worldview in students. It was concluded that the implementation of ecological educational digital products created on the basis of the proposed methodology contributes to the formation of an environmentally conscious personality, capable of making informed decisions and acting in the interests of the environment and society.
