Abstract

The study explores an information technology model of forming individual trajectories, which is conducive to organizing and managing students’ independent work. The existing methods of teaching at the university level allow improvement of students’ performance with the help of principles of autonomous learning that are implemented during individual work. We have suggested the structure of the devised model and considered several methods that involve the proposed technology as well as the general principle of the information technology functioning. A distinctive feature of the information technology is that it incorporates a method of forming and a method of adjusting individual trajectories of students’ independent work. These methods are based on performance prediction and aided by the modified method of cluster analysis of the McKean k-means; they take into account individual performance and motivation of each student with the help of production models of guiding the student.

The suggested model of information technology is aimed at solving the problems of individualization in the higher education process and improving the academic performance of students.
