New approach to developing learning and teaching support materials for students of library information sphere

Abstract

Review of the monograph by Inna Nikolaevna Doronina (I. N. Doronina. Functional modelling of library information education systems: a scientific publication / I. N. Doronina. - Moscow: Pashkov dom, 2016. - 190 p.). The reviewer emphasizes the well-substantiated choice of the methods. Inna Doronina demonstrates how to implement the integrated complex of learning and teaching materials and to translate it into the competences and knowledge complying with the Federal State Education Standard of higher professional education. For the first time, the technology of building learning and teaching complex is applied to the humanities sphere. The technology is based on the principles of large-scale systems design, for instance, in telephone communications, manufacturing, and management. Based on the example of the competence-oriented learning cluster (“ Information system design” ) implementation, I. Doronina demonstrates that the quality of library professional training increases due to the technology. The reviewer characterizes the monograph sections and comments on its depth, and implementation possibility and viability. He also emphasizes that, to apply the functional modelling methods, the designers will have to master some fundamental knowledge, in particular, in higher mathematics and systems theory.
