The impact of kaizen philosophy on the development of personal-professional environment of the future specialist - Статья

And despite the fact that the notion “educational audit” came in the system of categorical- terminological base of humanities rather recently, is has already several meanings. Thus, the educational audit is considered as: 1) the control of the quality of preparation of students and specialists in educational institutions and other organizations that realize the educational preparation; 2) attestation of educational institution for the quality of education. N. Efremova gives more detailed definition, considering the educational audit as the independent assess-ment of the results of educational activity by the special attestation services that have a certificate for the control- assessment procedures using standardized methods in compliance with the rules fixed in educational legislation or other regulatory documents [11]. According to the author, educational audit is directed on satisfaction of the needs of individuals or educational institutions for the reliable information about the level of educational achievements and the main requirement to such audit - the pure honesty, independence, correspondent profes-sional preparation and use of the modern control- assessment means and procedures. Ukraine started the use of methodical instruments for educational audit as to the effectiveness of the higher educational institutions activity such as the audit of administrative activity grounded on the standards and expe-rience of international higher audit institutions that can favor the permanent improvement. So, the one of charac-teristics of any system that determines the productivity of its functioning is the adequate system of support of the processes of collection, accumulation, permanent search, processing and transmission of information. It must guarantee for the heads of the higher educational institution of all levels the necessary minimum of information about the state and features of the continuous development of such processes and systems that they manage and are responsible for. At the same time information must be maximally comprehensive by the volume and content, objective, concrete and observed in its dynamics. Such monitoring of the education quality in the higher technical educational institution allows also the continuous survey of the state of education on the whole and of its separate components. According to the results of educational audit the higher technical educational institutions must guarantee to the society as a whole and to the industry in particular the available, “real” means for the support of educational process and realization of the offered programs of professional preparation. In such a way they guarantee the collection, accumulation, analysis and use of information that is important for the productive management of the teaching programs and other types of activity. Taking into account the main aim of activity in the higher technical school that is preparation of the future specialists of technical profile we face with the question, what are the properties of the higher technical edu-cational institution? Firstly, the novelty of approach to the professional preparation of the students - “predictability of the knowledge production”; alongside with the deepening of specialization, is realized the preparation of specialist on interdisciplinary specialties such as biotechnology, biophysics, electronics, engineering psychology, economic cybernetics, systems engineering, industrial ecology, ergonomics and so on, that has the correspondent impact on the features of educational environment of the higher technical educational institution, its dynamic qualitative characteristics and the culture of social dialog between the higher technical education and economy. Secondly, the continuousness, which important resource is the increase of the volume and branching of independent work and individual forms of learning that is the ground of the further personal, professional and ca-reer development. Thirdly, the shift of the activity accent from the educational aspect to the scientific and productive one allow solve the problem of preparing specialists who correspond to the modern requirements namely to the saving use of the educational process possibilities in the higher technical educational institution. Especially, the development of fundamental researches, rise of the specialization level of scientific-pedagogical staff, improvement of pedagogical and social infrastructure of the higher technical educational institution as the center of knowledge-based technologies, culture and education, science and production. So, it is expedient to leave the prevalent today orientation on the “operative arming” and transfer to the “operative generation”. Operatively armed during the process of education with the certain algorithms of the solving the concrete problems, the future specialist feels difficulties and complication at transferring this technology on the other classes, adjacent branches of knowled
