QUALITY INDEX OF AN INDIVIDUAL LEARNING PATH (ILP)

Abstract

This paper is a continuation of the article devoted to tools for building an individual learning
path (ILP). The concept of the learning path of an individual (LPI) is introduced. LPI is a sequence of
learning activities that a student has undergone over a period of time. Recent studies related to ILP are
analyzed. It was found that the issues of quantitative analysis and comparison of different ILPs are given
insufficient attention.
It is proposed to measure the quality of LPI using the LPI quality index (ILPI). There are two main
applications of ILPI. The first is the choice of the best LPI for an individual, and the second is to monitor
the quality of the implementation of learning paths in a population or a particular group.
The basis for calculating the index is information about learning blocks. For them, the invested resources,
time and the received result are fixed. All them are located in the coordinate system of X - reasonability, Y
- satisfaction, Z - organizational format.
The proposed scheme for calculating the main index and visualization of intermediate data allows you to
quickly identify "red" and "green" areas of the learning path. The proposed method can be used to assess
the learning path options.
