METHODOLOGICAL AND METHODICAL ASPECTS OF TRAINING OF STUDENTS IN THE MASTER’S PROGRAMS TO CONDUCT MANAGEMENT OF MENTORING IN AN EDUCATIONAL ORGANIZATION

Abstract

The article discusses issues of improving the training of future managers for organizing mentoring and its implementation in educational organizations. Mentoring in modern educational theory and practice is considered as a technology, the implementation of which is aimed at ensuring the effectiveness of specialists and the quality of processes in the organization. In order to train students for the master’s degree 44.04.01 Pedagogical education “Management of an educational organization” for mentoring management, two aspects of mentoring are analyzed: methodological and methodical. The approach proposed in the work is determined by the fact that in pedagogical theory and practice there is insufficient theoretical and methodological justification of mentoring, while the experience and practices of mentoring in various organizations of the economy and socio-cultural sphere are presented in the scientific literature sufficiently complete. Prerequisites for identifying the theory and methodology of mentoring are subjected to scientific study and analysis, in particular, similarities and differences between mentoring as a management technology and mentoring as a pedagogical technology are revealed. It is shown that the effectiveness of mentoring in the real conditions of an educational organization is achieved on the basis of its theoretical and methodological justification. The results of the study are used as the basis for the development of methodological support for the discipline “Mentoring Technologies” for the master’s program 44.04.01 Pedagogical education “Management of an educational organization”. The paper proposes an approach to structuring the methodology of mentoring by students themselves in the process of search cognitive activity.
