Visualizers as an Effective Tool For Teaching Algorithms

Abstract

The article discusses issues related to the use of visualization methods in teaching. The place and role of visualization of educational information in solving a number of pedagogical tasks, such as ensuring the intensification of learning, enhancing educational and cognitive activities, the formation and development of thinking, visual perception, figurative representation of knowledge and educational actions, knowledge transfer and pattern recognition, are stated. As an example, the structure and capabilities of the emulator of sorting algorithms developed in the Delphi 7 programming environment are considered.
