THE ASSESSMENT OF COMPLEXITY OF THE THIRD GRADE CHESS TEXTBOOK

Abstract

The research included the process of expert evaluation of teachers with high pedagogical qualities and knowledge of Chess. The complex topics, unnecessary repetitions of the material, disproportionate, non-gradual development of taught materials of the current textbook were revealed.
It is important to emphasize that in several researches, carried out in previous years, the authors were also interested in the issues related to the content of textbooks and the compilation standards. Within the framework of one of these studies, the authors analyzed the textbooks and teacher's manuals of the subjects of Native Language, Mathematics and Chess, highlighting the qualities and abilities, which are formed with the help of the contents of the mentioned subjects, as well as the proportion in which they are formed (the impact factor of each subject) (Sargsyan, et al., 2021).
Considering all this, the Chess 3textbook was re-edited, the topics were simplified, the volume and the number of the lessons were reduced, and new topics were introduced.
