Subjective Representation Study of University Teachers About the Significance of Changes in Higher Education

“…Thus, investigating how pass rates and score distributions have changed during this time is vital. Additionally, variations in subjective attitudes can provide valuable insights into how different educational institutions are interpreting these impacts (Gutsu et al, 2020). While existing literature has explored overall challenges in mathematics education wrought by the pandemic (Castro et al, 2020;Doz, 2021;Saadati et al, 2021), analyses differentiated by urban and rural schools remain scarce (Higher School of Economics [HSE], 2020).…”

This mixed methods study investigates the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on outcomes and perceptions related to the high-stakes unified state exam (USE) mathematics assessment in Russia. Quantitative descriptive analyses of USE scores from 2018-2021 revealed statistically significant distributional differences over time, with progressive increases in higher performance tiers. However, while a positive trend was discernible, strength of association tests indicated it was marginally moderate across years. Stratified pass rate analyses illuminated between-group variances, with specialized schools strongly rebounding after initial 2020 declines observed universally. To gain stakeholder insights, surveys were administered to students and teachers from urban versus rural regions. Attitudes regarding the mandatory USE removal diverged between groups; optimism permeated small rural schools despite hardships, while skepticism was pronounced among urban teachers citing accountability concerns. Stress perceptions revealed dissonances signaling wellbeing impacts. Overall, while achievement markers show positive trajectories, attitudinal variations based on school-types underline social dimensions shaping high-stakes test experiences. Results implicate targeted support policies and context-sensitive analytical approaches for optimal crisis mitigation. Granular investigations of less-understood equity gaps, expanding methodologies and detailed demographic profiling would enrich these findings. By quantifying exam trends alongside experiential nuances, the study develops a contextualized understanding of mathematical assessment transformations, informing localized continuity planning for uncertain futures.

В условиях изменения векторов развития на интеграционные, глобализационные, информатизационные основной целью системы последипломного образования является удовлетворение индивидуальных потребностей специалиста в личном профессиональном росте, повышение его конкурентоспособности в соответствии с общественными потребностями, а также обеспечение заинтересованности государства в квалифицированных кадрах высокого уровня профессионализма и культуры, способности компетентно и ответственно выполнять профессиональные функции, способствовать успешному социально-экономическому прогрессу общества. Основной задачей непрерывного образования является углубление компетентностей специалистов в соответствии с достижениями современной науки и требованиями рынка труда. Совершенствование профессиональной компетентности педагога заключается в том, что профессиональные знания должны формироваться одновременно на всех уровнях – методологическом, теоретическом, технологическом, практическом, личностном. Это требует профессионального мышления, способности подбирать, анализировать, синтезировать полученные знания в достижении педагогической цели, целостно представлять технологию их применения. In the conditions of changing development vectors to integration, globalization, informatization, the main goal of the postgraduate education system is to meet the individual needs of a specialist in personal professional growth, increase his competitiveness in accordance with public needs, as well as ensuring the state's interest in qualified personnel of a high level of professionalism and culture, the ability to competently and responsibly perform professional functions, contribute to successful social- economic progress of society. The main task of continuing education is to deepen the competencies of specialists in accordance with the achievements of modern science and the requirements of the labor market. The improvement of a teacher's professional competence lies in the fact that professional knowledge should be formed simultaneously at all levels – methodological, theoretical, technological, practical, personal. This requires professional thinking, the ability to select, analyze, synthesize the acquired knowledge in achieving the pedagogical goal, to holistically represent the technology of their application.
