Abstract:

The problem of collecting primary information for the information-analytical system was considered, and it was found that the main obstacle to effective monitoring of the educational activities of higher education institutions is the disparity and fragmentation of the source information, on the basis of which monitoring should be carried out. Various forms of information presentation are disclosed.

The sources of information are characterized (teachers, departments, deans, subdivisions (representative offices), educational institutions; regulatory governing bodies at the city level; regulatory governing bodies at the regional level; the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine). There are 3 main stages of information gathering, which are iterative in nature: the stage of formalization of requirements and requests of the source, the stage of technical data collection, and the stage of verification. It was revealed that the stage of formalization of the requirements and requests of the source involves determining the scope, nature and sources of primary data based on the available information, which includes: personal affairs of students who study in full-time and extramural forms and by the technology of open education; student performance, etc. It was established that the stage of technical data collection is directly responsible for the technical transfer of educational data from divisions, deaneries, etc. to the structures of primary databases, in particular, using telecommunication networks. It is proven that at the verification stage, the primary data is automatically checked for completeness, consistency, correctness, volume and other requirements identified at the formalization stage.

The methods of collecting primary information, which are known from sociology, statistics, psychology, etc. and their shortcomings, are considered: statistical reports, summaries and documents; survey; interview and expert survey. A unified information collection technology is proposed, which defines the stages of processing the original information presented in various formats, for its transformation into a single unified form, which ensures informativeness, consistency and lack of data redundancy. The sequence of information collection technology is defined.

For any method of registration, incoming information must be controlled to prevent its duplication or detection of erroneous data. The information collected in this way is primary data. Further, these data are subject to further formalization and verification.

In the structure of the monitoring system, as in any information system, the primary data collection subsystem and the monitoring output data submission subsystem are of particular importance. The primary data collection subsystem is a hardware and software unit that is responsible for obtaining initial educational data.

Keywords: analysis, indicators, quality, education, primary information, questionnaire, interview, expert survey.
