PROSPECTS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PRESENT STAGE OF HIGHER SCHOOL
The purpose of the study was the situation around the future of higher education in Russia. It did not take shape yesterday, but recent events in the world have prompted a decision to reform the existing system. The authors decided to express their point of view on this problem, since they do not care in which education system to work. The authors examined the history of the development of Russian higher education: from the monarchical to the modern periods. We evaluated each of them. We have identified positive and negative trends in the higher education system. We compared the Bologna system with the specialty. With the development of new information technologies, the range of information services is expanding, conditions are being created for the formation of a single global information and educational space. The attractiveness of the distance form is determined by the following principles: flexibility; modularity; economic efficiency; automation of control; the use of specialized technologies and training tools (videoconferences; test shells; chats; attendance check blocks; automated rating systems, etc.). The positive experience of the last ten years is the use of electronic educational complexes within the disciplines being read. Conclusion, leave electronic complexes in the range of the teacher. At the same time, it is necessary to remember about the negative consequences for education of the use of distance technologies: the lack of contact between the student and the teacher; the lack of control over the quality of acquired knowledge; the security of information transmitted between students and teachers; the need for a strong technical base among the participants of the educational process and their level of preparedness when working with new systems and programs Zero testing of applicants showed the lack of formation of their logical thinking skills, fragmented knowledge and lack of consistency. Definitely, it is necessary to abandon the Unified State Exam system when recruiting applicants. There is an acute issue with some specialties: there is an overabundance of managers, accountants, lawyers. At the same time, there is a shortage, for example, of IT specialists, engineers. It is necessary to coordinate the list of specialties for the training of such specialists who will be in demand in 5-10 years. Over the past twenty years, the number of hours per teacher has increased from 720 to 900 hours, which, of course, has reduced the time (and desire) for science. It is necessary to revive the system of retraining of the teaching staff, ensuring the modification of knowledge and applied technologies in the learning process. It is necessary to raise the prestige of the teaching profession, its motivation. The specialty has confirmed its viability. It is only necessary to supplement it with technologies that have proven their effectiveness. The suggestions made will be reflected in the organization of further work as a higher school teacher.
