| Περιγραφή: | Context and relevance. The theoretical basis of the study is a competence-oriented educational paradigm and a personalized approach, ensuring the transition from the formal compliance of educational programs with the requirements of educational standards to their practical orientation towards the real cognitive needs of students. Objective. The aim is to propose a universal algorithm for designing an educational program based on the analysis of students' educational needs, in order to further refine its structure and provide opportunities for creating individualized educational trajectories. Hypothesis. If the process of designing an educational program is based on a systematic analysis of students' educational needs, then this approach will provide a universal mechanism for its continuous updating, facilitating the implementation of personalized professional university training. Methods and materials. The study utilized a questionnaire to quantitatively assess the significance of the professional competencies developed by the educational program for students. The criterion for comparative analysis was the arithmetic mean weighted scores of professional competencies, taking into account the varying weights of their indicators. Based on the quantitative assessments obtained, professional competencies were ranked, and a competency profile was constructed reflecting the educational priorities of the program's target audience. Through expert discussions with faculty, a correspondence was established between professional competencies and educational modules by constructing adjacency matrices. A graph method was used to visualize the program structure, showing the relationships between competencies and modules. Results. Using the example of the Master's degree program "Tutoring and Mentoring in Education," we demonstrate a systematic approach to its design. This approach allowed us to create personalized educational trajectories relevant to the needs of the target audience by identifying the cognitive needs of master's students, constructing a sought-after profile of professional competencies, matching them with educational modules, and visualizing the structure of the professional block of the program. Conclusions. By conducting a systematic study of students' educational needs and, based on the structure of the resulting competency profile, it is possible to update educational programs based on the proposed universal algorithm for their design. |
