Abstract

The author analyses the content of the development of selfeducational competence of students of agricultural educational institutions with the help of interactive computer technologies. High speed of science development quickly renders any knowledge acquired by students in high school obsolete and reveals the urgent need for the development of self-educational competence. In conditions of widespread computerisation and active use of the latest modern technical developments in everyday life, the use of interactive computer technology appears to be the most effective and promising line of self-educational competence development among university students. Four components of self-educational competence are identified: knowledge; motivation; activity; communication. In accordance with these components, criteria, indicators, and tools were developed to determine the self-educational competence development of university students through interactive computer technology. The pedagogical experiment took place from 2017-2019 based on Chernyatyn College of Vinnytsia National Agrarian University. The survey covered 87 students of four faculties, 26 people were in the control group and 61 people in the experimental group. To standardise the initial results of diagnostic tests and questionnaires, percentiles were used. After calculating percentiles for each component of self-educational competence, a table of standardisation was composed. Four levels of component development of self-educational competence were identified: low, below average, above average, and high. The purpose of the formative phase of the experiment was the model testing of self-educational competence development in university students through interactive computer technology. The analysis of indicators of transition of students to a high level of development of self-educational competence demonstrated that the process of development of self-educational competence of students of experimental group passes more effectively than at students of control group. The reason was the experimental work performance to implement structural and functional models for self-educational competence development of university students through interactive computer technology
