A MODEL OF USING INFORMATION AND DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES TO EVALUATE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF PEDAGOGICAL RESEARCH

Abstract

The paper clarifies the definitions of "information and digital technologies", "effectiveness of pedagogical research", and "evaluation of the effectiveness of pedagogical research using information and digital technologies". A model of using information and digital technologies to evaluate the effectiveness of pedagogical research has been developed, which contains four blocks: purpose, content, organizational and activity, and evaluation and result. The selected components are characterized. In particular, the purpose of the model is to develop the content and technologies for using information and digital technologies to evaluate the effectiveness of pedagogical research; the purpose group, and regulatory documents on which the developed model is based. The following digital tools and platforms are highlighted in the content block: scientometric databases, electronic scientific and educational libraries, altmetric tools, etc. In the organizational and activity block, the following topics are proposed as possible topics for seminars/webinars: evaluating the effectiveness of pedagogical research using statistical modules of scientific digital libraries, Google cloud services, international and domestic scientometric databases, scientific social networks, altmetric and bibliometric systems, and creating an e-portfolio. The evaluation and result block considers project-competition, scientific-publication, scientometric, altmetric, expert and representative scientific criteria and indicators for evaluating the effectiveness of pedagogical research of scholars, research and teaching staff, research institutions, and HEIs. The weight of each criterion can be adjusted by introducing coefficients of significance. The result of the developed model is the improvement of the competence of researchers and academic staff using information and digital technologies to evaluate the effectiveness of pedagogical research.
