Target Professions Based Approach for Individual Learning Pathway Creation

Abstract

University education is becoming more student-centered and personalized in recent years, whereas connections between professional skills and learning outcomes are recognized vaguely. The article proposes an approach to create relations between skills that students acquire in a higher education process and those required in various careers. The approach makes it possible to trace consistency between course material, educational programs, and professions. Thus, the implementation of skills and interdisciplinary connections allows to build the most relevant individual learning tracks for a specific career and provides students with valuable recommendations. The proposed approach is implemented in ITMO University’s (Russia) web service “Educational Program Maker,” initially designed for education process management. The system ensures the development of educational program elements, provides a platform for describing relations between educational entities, and enables users to choose a curriculum for a specific profession.
