Summary/Abstract: The article addresses the problem of preparing future teachers for the use of ICT in primary school lessons. The authors characterize the functionality of information and communication technologies, focus on modern computer aids that can be used in the education and upbringing of younger students and highlight some aspects of preparing future teachers to use ICT in primary school education. It is established that ICT in primary school lessons is today a powerful didactic tool that involves children in active work, develops their cognitive interest, promotes better learning and enhances learning effectiveness. Learning needs to be polysensory and varied in order to meet students' information needs. In this context, information training of future elementary school teachers, which activates their cognitive and creative potential, generates the knowledge and skills needed for future professional activity, is of great importance. In fact, it is about improving the effectiveness of teacher education through the introduction of information and communication technologies, since they change the way scientific information is presented, provide individualization of learning, creating new forms of interaction between teacher and student in the process of solving various cognitive problems. Accordingly, the potential of educational disciplines and pedagogical practices at the Mukachevo State University is aimed at training competitive specialists ready to quickly process a large amount of educational information and original solutions to professional tasks by mastering modern ICT tools.
