Интенсификация образовательного процесса с использованием метода фокусированного группового интервью

Abstract

Researched is the experience of intensification of education based on the application of the method of focused group interview within the system of higher departmental education in Russia. This method is proposed to adapt and apply as a kind of practical training. The article proves that the use of this method activates the educational process due to group dynamics, that is, the use of new types of social interactions that are traditionally not accepted to use in departmental universities. The characteristic of the trainees is given and the main educational effects of the method application are described, such as: relevance and novelty of knowledge, its practical value, persuasiveness, memorability, increased interest in the course of the lesson. The method was applied in conducting trainings courses (heads of subdivisions on interaction with civil society institutions and media of the bodies of internal Affairs of Russia) at the Higher academic courses of Academy of management of MVD of Russia. The proposed method allowed us to switch to two specific practices (strategies) for organizing this pedagogical interaction, including taking into account the regional specifics of students. Thanks to the intensification of group dynamics in the course of classes, students have the opportunity to get a lot of “fresh”, relevant examples of interaction with the media; to avoid previously unpredictable negative consequences of various types and forms of interaction in their future practice.
