Description of the research topic:
In higher education computer science and mathematics edu-cation, and certain engineering courses, require formal pro-gramming education and efficiency analysis of algorithms based on mathematical methods. The use of programming theorems is a compositional technique used in many CS courses. The use of playful elements to supplement the clas-sical formal teaching method, which is more accessible to the present generation, while at the same time transferring formal knowledge. Evaluation of the effectiveness of the proposed methods. Development and improvement of algorithmic thinking. Changes in the self-assessment of students entering higher education after the start of their studies.
