Quality assessment of the cloud-oriented environment for flipped learning of the future IT specialists

The article discusses the essence of the qualimetry approach and defines its role in the procedures for assessing the quality of the cloud-oriented environment for flipped learning in the process of training future IT specialists in higher education institutions. It offers a basic factor-qualimetry model for assessing the quality of such an environment, which can serve as a tool for its current monitoring and periodic review in the implementation of the internal quality assurance system of the educational process. The proposed basic factor-qualimetry model is based on the relevant criteria and indicators that have a specific weight. When building a factor-qualimetry model to assess the quality of the cloud-oriented environment for flipped learning of future IT professionals, 3 criteria and 26 evaluation indicators were identified, which were analyzed using the method of expert assessment. An example of calculating the quality of the environment is given. The obtained results allow to form individual approaches to the assessment of the quality of cloud-oriented environments, which are designed and applied in higher education institutions.
