Implementation of an individualized approach to learning in labor (technology) lessons in the 5th grade

This article presents the results of a pilot study on implementing an individualized approach in fifth-grade labor (technology) lessons. We also examine the impact of considering students' individual characteristics, specifically their dominant perceptual modality, on the development of their learning motivation and cognitive independence when organizing the learning process using individualized tasks. The theoretical findings were tested in practice: individualized tasks were developed for three categories of students, defined by their dominant perceptual modality (auditory, visual, and kinesthetic learners). Statistical data is presented on the effectiveness of this approach in developing learning motivation, cognitive activity, and academic achievement in the subject "Labor (technology)." Conclusions are drawn and recommendations for teachers and parents on considering students' individual characteristics are presented.
