Study of managerial competence of future education managers in the context of using electronic educational environment

The article considers the question of the features of the training future education managers, their manage skills, the structure of which provides knowledge and experience in using the electronic educational environment. This problem is important, especially now, in the context of the coronavirus pandemic, when educational institutions work mainly in a distance format. Now every manager of an educational institution must be competent not only in the field of information technology and have appropriate digital competence but also knowledgeable in the implementation of the electronic educational environment of the institution, in particular, to resolve certain management issues. During literature analysis, we found that there are many studies that describe the use of ICT in the process of forming the managerial competence of future education managers. But, there are few studies that describe the features of the work of the manager in the electronic learning environment (ELE) and solve the problem of their training in this context. To obtain objective information about the level of managerial competence in future heads of higher pedagogical education, we organized a survey that found that future education managers do not have a clear idea of ELE and do not understand its potential for management. During the study, we developed levels of managerial competence of future managers, to which we added skills related to the use of ELE. The training of students lasted from 2017 to 2020 according to the methodology that took into account the structure of managerial competence knowledge and skills of using ELE. We conducted an experimental study that determined the effectiveness of the methodology for the formation of managerial competence of future heads of educational institutions in the context of ELE. This study found that such training contributes to the formation of the future manager, develops his managerial skills, allows to solve the problem of developing managerial competence in future education managers using ELE, is an effective means of implementing educational programs at the university.

Critiquing Empire Through Desirability: A Review of 40 Years of Filipinx Americans in Education Research, 1980 to 2020

There is a paucity of research on the educational experiences of Filipinx Americans, the second-largest Asian American group in the United States. Studies that do exist often lump Filipinxs with other Asian Americans or present them devoid of critical contexts that shape their experience, namely, colonialism and racialization. Using a desire-based framework and empire as an analytic, we conducted a semi-systematic review of 74 journal articles to better understand how Filipinx Americans are presented in the research. Our analysis suggests that researchers often position Filipinx Americans relative to whiteness or utilize critical educational framings to interrogate the complex ways they are racialized. We offer implications for research focused on Filipinx Americans and minoritized groups. We conclude by discussing the utility of interdisciplinary research as well as the necessity for desirability and empire as a lens for future education research.

Educating for the future? Mapping the emerging lines of precision education governance

Managing the future has become one of the major focuses of global governance in education. In its current mode, education seems unable to answer the needs and interests of the market and future megatrends, such as globalisation and digitalisation. Calls for precision education to introduce the usage of digital platforms, artificial intelligence in education, and knowledge from the behavioural and life sciences are getting a foothold in widening powerful networks of strengthening global governance and EdTech business. By bringing together some of the emerging changes in education governance, in this article we argue for a new constitution of governance, precision education governance. Precision education governance combines three overlapping and strengthening lines of governance: (i) global governance of education, (ii) marketisation, privatisation and digitalisation, and (iii) behavioural and life sciences as the basis for managing the future education. In the article, we highlight the importance in bringing these so far separately studied lines together to understand how they shape the aims and outcomes of education, knowledge and understanding of human subjectivity more thoroughly than before.
