in the Russian educational system are long overdue serious problems.One of them - the isolation of high school programs from the real needs of the labor market.
"According to a survey portal Superjob, this year 65% of Russian graduates are going to enter a higher educational institution, and only 11% - in college or college. Meanwhile, the workings specialties are most in demand in the labor market - skilled and unskilled workersoccupy the 2nd and 4th place in the ranking of most popular positions, respectively. But lawyers and economists on the staff, on the contrary, too much; difficulties in finding jobs in representatives of these professions have been going on for years, the number of applicants usually exceeds the number of vacancies in the 3-7 times depending on the region.
However, quantitative gap - not the only or the most important issue. According to experts, the quality of modern education - both school and university - for a long time does not meet the needs of the economy.
- LevelEducation is now declining, and blame not only the universities - confirmed during the conference Finam.ru Deputy Dean of the Faculty of power engineering MSTU.Bauman Dmitry Onishchenko.- Sharply deteriorating level of knowledge of students in high school.To teach a student who is not able to differentiate specific sections of higher mathematics is hard enough, just hard to explain quantum mechanics to the person who does not know the basic fundamentals of classical mechanics.
to Onishchenko indirectly confirm the results of the unified state exam in mathematics.This year, a lower bound on points not able to overcome the almost 5% of Russian graduates, that is, every 20 minutes from potential entrants and has not mastered the basics of the curriculum.Although, you can not just blame the students.Obviously, the level of their training are equally dependent on the level of teaching and the quality of the educational program.
- Dissatisfaction with the students is very high.On reducing the level of teaching students say even basic technical universities - says co-founder of an educational portal for finance PFL University Fyodor Naumov.- Employers also complain about the huge gap between the knowledge they need and what they teach students.As a result, according to Naumov, the model of higher education in Russia is paradoxical.
- We have the best universities - a "magnet" for talent, but talent alone on this study that need to labor market!Is it worth it in this case, copy the Western model - a moot point.
According to the professor of the Moscow International Business School MIRBIS Alexander Sergeyev, the West we should learn at least that there is a higher education is aimed primarily at the development of the individual, and only then - the formation of professional knowledge and skills.
- The main strength of the Western system is that it creates a person - independence, responsibility and initiative - said Sergeyev.- Generates no special lessons, and by the organization of a learning process.Please note that the main form of reports of Russian students is abstract (rewriting), and in the west - an essay (of expression).
- Western student sitting in class 10 hours a week, and in the library - day and night - adds Vice-Rector of the University of Finance and methodical work of regional development Nelly Rosina.- And our student sitting in the audience for 40 hours and is waiting for him to tell and show.
In any case, blindly "trace" a foreign system of education can not, experts agree.Every nation has its own peculiarities and traditions, and if they are broken, you can ruin the best of what has been already attained.
