Educational environment as the foundation for metasubject competences forming by Nina A. Tymoshchuk

“…It is shown that such approach to education makes it possible to individualize the system of professional training of students, to create scientifically grounded educational and methodological computer support of the educational process. An individual who has all the opportunities to achieve the required level of qualifications independently will be able to replenish knowledge and implement his educational project without information support of specially trained people for this purpose; self-education acquires a continuous character; the breadth of basic education will allow you to switch quickly to related areas of professional activity.The metaproject content of educational standards should include not only the real objects of the reality being studied, including fundamental educational objects and general cultural knowledge, including fundamental problems, but also general (meta-subjective) skills, generalized methods of activity and key (meta-subject) educational competence. …”
