Assessment Result

In this article an attempt to systematize the existing approaches to the assessment of quality of training students of technical universities in various countries is made; features of the assessment result of students' learning common for the whole system of higher education in Europe and the United States are identified; differences in the quality assessment result of training technical university students in foreign countries are also discussed. The relevance of the research is determined by the features of the organization and trends in the development of quality assessment of student training results, which is one of the most important aspects of managing the development of the higher education system. The choice of methods for its implementation directly affects all aspects of university activities in general, and largely determines the quality of educational services. The purpose of the article is to study and analyze existing approaches to assessing the quality of training results of technical university students abroad. It is established that the assessment of the quality of students' training results in Russia requires transformation of our mentality in determining the content of education. The presented results and conclusions of the study make it possible to formulate recommendations for assessing the quality of student training results in the system of professional education in Russia and promote the creation of a unified system for assessing the quality of higher education, which contributes to increasing the prestige of Russian higher education and its integration into the international scientific and educational space.

The current phase of the socio-economic development in Ukraine is marked by the transformation in the national higher education system in order to harmonize it with international standards. These standards are based on the basically new competence-oriented paradigm of the higher education, making emphasis on the quality of higher professional education. An important component of the education quality is the performance of a higher education establishment (HEE), which significance is growing given the increasing competition among HEEs and stricter requirements to the transparence and information openness of their operation. This raises the relevance of the problem related with selection of indicators for assessment of HEE performance. It is pointed out that methodical approaches to quality assessment of HEEs for official accreditation and ranking purposes, practiced in Ukraine now, include the indicators capable for only fragmented assessment of HEE results and focused on education processes. These approaches to performance assessment in HEEs cause a gap between the quality of HEE performance and the quality of education provided by them. It is found that variations between indicators of domestic and international rankings by which HEE performance is assessed occur because international rankings, in contrast to domestic ones, account only for HEE performance, including job placement of graduates or applications of R&D, whereas ways to achieve the performance are considered as a matter of HEE choice.   A theoretical and methodological approach to constructing a set of indicators of HEE performance is justified, which is based on the principle that a set of these indicators must provide as full as possible coverage of goals and operative tasks of HEEs, specified in the Law of Ukraine “Higher Education”. It is argued that the result of education process as a propriety operative task of HEE must be specific achievements of graduates, expected and measurable. A set of the indicators measuring results of education activities is proposed. A number of new indicators in addition to R&D spending are proposed for assessment of R&D in HEEs. Also, specific indicators are proposed for assessment of task completion: established international relations and performed international actions in the field of education; the increased education and cultural level of citizens.   It is concluded that assessment of HEE performance need to be made by multi-criteria set of components and be based on a system of estimates.

Accreditation is a solution for improving the quality of education in higher education institutions. Quality accreditation plays a dominant role that supports quality assurance management in the higher education system. The accreditation frameworks and external quality assurance are different between countries. The United States started quality accreditation very early, so it has a robust educational quality accreditation system, excellent support for the development of higher education institutions. Vietnam has only begun to conduct quality accreditation in recent years. At present, there are still some differences between Vietnam and the United States in quality management activities, but education quality accreditation of Vietnam is approximately similar the United States and carried out in three models: the model of central control of quality assurance of state; model of quality assurance combining between state control with the market competition; and model in which the state primarily leave responsibility for quality assurance to self-accrediting universities.

The paper studies the problem of assessing the quality of higher education in the Russian Federation. The problem is rooted in the ambiguous understanding of the concept of quality and the variability of the meaning of higher education, primarily, its arguable connection with obtaining a specific professional education. The methodology relies on the principles of modern economic theory and the results of social psychology and assessment theory, thereby demonstrating a cross-disciplinary character. Based on the provisions and approaches mentioned above, we find that the concept of quality has at least four possible interpretations, and the concept of higher education has three of them, while the current regulatory documents do not fully cover them. Proceeding from the fact that higher education services are credence goods for students, the research proves that students cannot act as the subject of quality assessment. The analysis performed in the paper demonstrates the plethora of options for assessing the quality of higher education, the number of which attains at least 396. The study formulates concrete proposals for modernization of the existing system of higher education quality assessment in Russia.

The Cost

The forced work of Russian universities remotely in the context of the pandemic (COVID-19) has generated a lot of discussion about the benefits of the new form of education. The first results were summed up and reports were presented, the materials of which showed that the main goal of online education — the prevention of the spread of infection, - has been achieved. Against this background, proposals and publications have appeared substantiating the effectiveness of the massive introduction of distance learning in Russia, including in higher education. However, the assessment of such training by the population and students in publications and in social networks was predominantly negative and showed that the number of emerging problems exceeds the possible benefits of the new educational technology. Based on the analysis of the materials of publications and personal experience of teaching online, the potential benefits and problems of distance learning in higher education in Russia are considered. It is proposed to consider the effects separately for the suppliers of new technology (government, universities) and consumers (students, teachers, society). It is substantiated that the massive introduction of online education allows not only to reduce the negative consequences of epidemics, but also to reduce budgetary funding for universities, optimize the age composition of teachers, and reduce the cost of maintaining educational buildings. However, there will be a leveling / averaging of the quality of education, and responsibility for the quality of training will shift from the state/universities to students. The critical shortcomings of online education are the low degree of readiness of the digital infrastructure, the lack of a mechanism for identifying and monitoring the work of students, information security problems, and the lack of trust in such training of the population. The massive use of online education creates a number of risks for the country, the most critical of which is the destruction of the higher education system and a drop in the effectiveness of personnel training. The consequences of this risk realization are not compensated by any possible budget savings.
