The article considers a syllabus as a core component of the educational program and an essential tool for describing an academic course for both a teacher and a student. Nowadays, there is gradual automation of document flow in educational institutions, including educa-tional and methodological documentation. It is required to develop the university's information system and the algorithm itself for the formal and content-wise review to automate the syllabus validation and verification process. The syllabus review process at St. Petersburg State University, RANEPA, and HSE was considered in the study. Therefore, a universal algorithm applicable to information systems has been designed. Since March 2021, ITMO University has been widely using “Educational Program Maker” web service to manage educational program elements. The developed system utilizes educational analytics methods which are widely used in online education for student behavior patterns evaluation and education results improvement. The proposed algorithm is implemented for syllabi development and review. Introduction of the module for the syllabi creation in a standardized and unified format allows to describe the prerequisites and post requisites of academic courses and link various educational activities with learning outcomes, making it possible to reveal the course content. Introducing the verification modules made it possible to automate the process of syllabi approvement

The subsystem of recording current academic performance, which allows to quickly obtain detailed information about the current academic performance of students and make management decisions on adjusting the educational process in terms of Baikal State University. It describes in detail the requirements for functionality and quality, the choice of means of implementing the subsystem, presents an algorithm for calculating students' current academic performance indicators, substantiates the choice of a two-level architecture (client-server). A database has been developed that has a connection with other subsystems of the universitys information system. The user interface is implemented considering academic performance requirements. The subsystem is tested on the data received from lecturers teachers who read disciplines in the field of study «Applied Computer Science» (educational program specialization «Information systems and technologies in management»). The subsystem can be adapted for recording current academic performance in any educational institutions.

The training of a specialist at a university is determined by the quality of the educational process, during which it is necessary to take into account the situation on the labor market. Successful training largely depends on the students self-education, which is difficult and limited in the context of a pandemic. The conditions of todays realities dictate the methods and forms of the process of self-education of students. During the pandemic, students practice self-education on a remote basis. We consider this form as a complex functional system with its own logic of development and relatively independent stages of learning via the Internet. Changes in various fields of activity are observed daily, which increases the requirements for the quality of education of a competitive individual; the idea of online education using electronic information platforms that serve as a means of self-education of students at the university is analyzed. The process of organizing the educational process in disciplines and tasks from the position of digitalization, through the introduction of modern digital technologies in the process of education of academic courses at the time of the pandemic in the country and the world, becomes significant. The conceptual apparatus considered in the paper: information space, educational space, self-education, competence, competence approach. It clarifies the need to teach the discipline in combination to acquire professional experience; the idea of revealing and enriching the inner potential of each person, his development and self-education throughout his life is substantiated; a detailed analysis of psychological and pedagogical literature is given. The results of a comprehensive study conducted at Chelyabinsk State University confirm the dependence of communicative competence on the students self-education during the pandemic.

Online education is increasingly becoming common in higher education forsupporting traditional education as well as emerging as an opportunity fordelivering entire education online. In Online education, multimedia materials areused to support learning and the ability to adapt the course content to meet awider range of learner interests and abilities. This research investigates thesatisfaction and performance of the students in TLE and VLE and also findsdifferences in gender based students’ satisfaction and performance. Further, thepreferences of the students in selecting their Learning Environment are analysed.Data have been collected from four educational institutions with a sample of size200 duly taken for consideration. The findings portray that maximum students aresatisfied with their learning environment and performing well in their respectiveenvironment. However, most male students especially of TLE want to switch overfrom TLE to VLE due to certain reasons. Management or higher authorities in TEmay try a launch an optional parallel VE to attract more students and to give analternate option for their traditional student to perform better.

Abstract Background Despite the advantages of using active learning strategies in nursing education, researchers have rarely investigated how such pedagogic approaches can be used to assess students or how interactive examinations can be modified depending on circumstances of practice (e.g., in online education). Aims The aim was to compare three interactive examination designs, all based on active learning pedagogy, in terms of nursing students’ engagement and preparedness, their learning achievement, and instructional aspects. Methods A comparative research design was used including final-year undergraduate nursing students. All students were enrolled in a quality improvement course at a metropolitan university in Sweden. In this comparative study to evaluate three course layouts, participants (Cohort 1, n = 89; Cohort 2, n = 97; Cohort 3, n = 60) completed different examinations assessing the same course content and learning objectives, after which they evaluated the examinations on a questionnaire in numerical and free-text responses. Chi-squared tests were conducted to compare background variables between the cohorts and Kruskal–Wallis H tests to assess numerical differences in experiences between cohorts. Following the guidelines of the Good Reporting of a Mixed Methods Study (GRAMMS), a sequential mixed-methods analysis was performed on the quantitative findings, and the qualitative findings were used complementary to support the interpretation of the quantitative results. Results The 246 students who completed the questionnaire generally appreciated the interactive examination in active learning classrooms. Among significant differences in the results, Cohort 2 (e.g., conducted the examination on campus) scored highest for overall positive experience and engagement, whereas Cohort 3 (e.g., conducted the examination online) scored the lowest. Students in Cohort 3 generally commended the online examination’s chat function available for use during the examination. Conclusions Interactive examinations for nursing students succeed when they are campus-based, focus on student preparation, and provide the necessary time to be completed.
