THE PRACTICE OF USING VIRTUAL SIMULATORS TO MASTER THE ALGORITHMS OF PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITY OF FUTURE ECONOMISTS
The article presents and summarizes the practical experience of using virtual simulators as part of the digital educational environment of the university. The processes of digital transformation of education have actualized the issues of the boundaries of the use of such training and training environments in the educational process of the university from a pedagogical point of view. As part of the implementation of the educational program of higher education in a specific field of training, it is advisable to develop your own strategy, methodology and algorithms for the use of virtual simulators and simulators. In the article, based on the experience of using virtual financial models of an enterprise for mastering algorithms of professional activity by students of economic directions, the necessary functional parts of the training and training environment are identified, the stages of working with the simulator are summarized, possible scenarios of their use are proposed. The author sought to trace the process of planning the inclusion of the simulator at different stages of mastering the practical course. It is shown that during the simulation, students were able to perform elements of future professional activity in the "virtual" space and see the long-term systemic consequences of their actions and decisions. In general, the article summarizes the aspects of the preparation of methodological recommendations by a higher school teacher accompanying the use of simulators as part of the digital educational environment of the university.
