SYSTEM OF INNOVATIVE EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES IN HIGHER EDUCATION: GOALS, OBJECTIVES, EXPERIENCE OF IMPLEMENTATION
The modern living conditions impose on the University graduates requirements, adequate to the realities of the innovative economy. Modern enterprise management requires not only high-tech, but also creative approach. In recent years, however the low level of intellectual and psychological training of managerial staff has become obvious. At the same time, there is increased competition at the labor market, where a young inexperienced specialist has to demonstrate such competitive advantages as high social adaptability, the ability to reveal the best personal qualities as well as willingness to participate in the strategic development of the company actively, and communication skills. The education system needs to take into account the model of modern University graduates, which involves the ability to analyze the situation at the labor market, to act in accordance with personal and societal benefits; the possession of the ethics of labor and civil relations, business skills, related to the profession; the existence of special knowledge, practical skills in economics, marketing, management, information systems and technologies business communications. Achieving this ideal is not possible using only traditional teaching methods. Competence-based approach, focused on the formation of general and specific competencies of students, requires increasing efficiency of educational process by enhancing the activity aspect of learning, emphasizing the methods and nature of the actions, strengthening the relationship with personal, particularly the motivational component. This approach maximally facilitates innovative (including interactive) educational technology. Thanks to them, the role of a teacher changes dramatically, which encourages to study new teaching experience, to reveal the attitude of the educators themselves to educational innovations, to learn their opinion on the prospects of interactive techniques and technologies. A survey among the professors in the Lipetsk branch of the RANEPA has presented an example of the use of innovative educational technologies at the University. The article considers the obtained results of the conducted research.
