Information technologies in education: the formation of a content component

Abstract

The object of research: modern trends in the transformation of education. The transition to the paradigm of knowledge was largely ensured by their universal computerization. This led to an understanding of the need to develop new approaches in educational activities based on the use of modern information technologies. Investigated problem: taking into account the advantages of the content component in educational activities. The teaching technology is built on the foundation of certain content; therefore, it is relevant to consider the content component in the context of the openness of education. If the concept of openness in education is based on the developments of fundamental education, introducing new qualities into it that correspond to the actual needs of the individual, then its content component presupposes an emphasis, first of all, on economic problems and ways of solving them. Main scientific results: Existing databases contain mainly structured information, but a significant amount of them is unstructured. Joint analysis of data from various sources is possible only on condition that unstructured data will be structured, since only for the latter the mathematical apparatus of data processing is most developed. To train a professional who can competently work with data, able to combine mathematical logic with the ambiguity of interpretations and concepts in economics and, accordingly, methods of obtaining data based on the purpose of the study is the task of specialties in economics. Information technology and the creation of common platforms for open education are the instrument for solving this problem. The area of practical use of the research results: the problem in training specialists of this profile is the ability to assess the accuracy of the initial information and the accumulation of errors during its processing. An innovative technological product: the relationship of mathematics and statistics in the curriculum for training business analysts creates a platform, the use of which makes it possible to solve the issue of a balanced approach to the accumulation and processing of data, taking into account the desired results in a particular subject area. Scope of application of an innovative technological product: only a competent internal policy of universities on the use of information technologies in teaching provides sufficient technical support in the relationship “student – teacher” aimed at complementing classical education technologies.
