THE ROLE OF SELF-ASSESSMENT MONITORING TOOLS OF TEACHERS’ DIGITAL COMPETENCE IN OVERCOMING CHALLENGES IN ORGANISING THE EDUCATIONAL PROCESS IN UKRAINE AND ABROAD
Full text (pdf)
Language: Ukrainian
Abstract. The article reveals the role of self-assessment tools for the digital competence of teachers in Ukraine and foreign countries. The online self-assessment tools used to check the level of digital competence in European countries and in Ukraine are described (EUROPASS, MyDigiSkills and Tsyfrogram). The domestic regulatory framework for monitoring the quality of education is presented, including the assessment of teachers’ professional competence in the context of achieving standards. The scientific works of Ukrainian and foreign scientists on the issues of assessing teachers’ digital competence, monitoring the quality of education in this context, and international recommendation documents are highlighted. The main guidelines for the standards and indicators of the level of digital competence of teachers in accordance with European approaches are presented. The main emphasis of monitoring such self-assessment is on the ability of teachers to support and use the digital educational environment of the school and organise educational, organisational and self-educational activities. The problems faced by teachers when organising distance learning in recent years and the need for professional development are highlighted. The experience of Ukrainian researchers during 2022-2024 regarding the survey of teachers aimed at their needs and identifying the level of digital competence is presented. The scientific novelty of the study lies in proposing a systematic approach to the self-assessment process of teachers’ digital competence, and its constant monitoring based on the specified domestic experience. It is proposed to develop mechanisms for applying a systematic approach to monitoring teachers’ needs and identifying the level of their digital competence, to carry out constant updating of professional development programmes, taking into account the work of teachers under the constraints and realities of wartime.
