Formation of the Educational Trajectory: Educational Motives and Choices in the Narratives of Students from Moscow Leading Universities by A. V. Noskova, D. V. Goloukhova, E. I. Kuzmina

“…Educational choices related to keeping or changing the educational trajectory are determined by the desire to avoid risks and having a high level of satisfaction with studies in the case of linear trajectories and the desire  to  gain  new  educational  experience,  obtaining  competencies  that  go  beyond  the  scope of the specialty being studied, as well as environmental factors of the university in the case of non-linear tracks.It is shown that a qualitative research strategy allows the researchers to look at reflected educational choices from the perspective of their semantic content, which is especially in demand due to the growing trend towards individualization of the educational process. It is concluded that empirical knowledge about the motives and methods of shaping the educational trajectories of the current generation of students is necessary for the development of an effective social and educational environment of a modern university, focused on a student-centered approach to learning.…”
