THE IMPACT OF THE USE OF BLENDED LEARNING TECHNOLOGY IN SCHOOL MATHEMATICS EDUCATION ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF TEACHING

The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of the use of blended learning technology in school mathematics education on the effectiveness of teaching from the point of view of teachers. This study used the case study method, which is one of the most qualitative studies. The study used a semi-structured form of preliminary interview and questionnaire. 126 math teachers working in various secondary schools of Kazakhstan took part in the survey conducted during the study, and 25 teachers of Shymkent city took part in the interview. During an interview conducted as a result of the study, most math teachers stated that pupils have a low interest in math lessons. As a result of the survey, math teachers were identified who had no idea about blended learning at all. The teachers who participated in the study noted the variety of educational materials that allow pupils to manage themselves and encourage them to self-study, as well as access to various teaching methods, as an advantage of using blended learning technology in teaching mathematics. And as a disadvantage, they noted the insufficient software of the blended learning environment, the vulnerability of the software and hardware of online learning, as well as the inability of teachers to use technology effectively. In addition, the majority of math teachers noted that the use of blended learning technology has a positive effect on the effectiveness of learning. Based on the results of the study, it is concluded that the use of blended learning technology in mathematical education is effective for increasing the interest of pupils, the effectiveness of learning and allows improving the quality of education. It was also revealed the need for teachers to take special advanced training courses that teach methods of applying the technology of blended learning in mathematical education
