In the modern information society, saturated with diverse data and many points of view, the role of critical thinking in the intellectual development of primary school children is becoming more relevant and significant. Critical thinking is necessary in situations of choice and decision-making, understanding forecasts and interpreting information, evaluating different opinions and points of view. The purpose of the work is to consider the theoretical foundations of the development of critical thinking of primary school children in the process of robotics classes and the development of a scientifically based pedagogical model. Theoretical methods: study of philosophical, psychological, pedagogical and methodological literature on the problem under consideration, theoretical analysis, synthesis of existing research on this topic, modeling and forecasting. The methodological basis of the study included: synergetic, convergent and environmental approaches. In the course of the study, a pedagogical model for the development of critical thinking in the process of robotics classes was theoretically substantiated. The research material provides an opportunity to develop diagnostic tools and build measurement procedures.

The article examines the role of problem solving in the formation of critical thinking in high school students. The author analyzes the theoretical foundations of the problem-solving method, describes its impact on the development of students' analytical abilities, and offers practical recommendations for the implementation of this method in the educational process. Special attention is paid to specific methodological techniques and conditions for the effective application of the method.
