Information technologies of engineering actor intellectual “I” development

Abstract

The goal of the research was the development and experimental testing of an interactive automated program that performs the functions of an individual trainer for the development of the intellectual “I” of engineering actor. The methodological basis of the study was the system approach. The survey was conducted in five stages. At the first stage, we conducted a systematic historical analysis of the professional anchorage of an industrial engineer. At the second stage of the survey, an expert evaluation of the professionally important qualities of the engineer and a factor analysis of the data were carried out. At the third stage of the survey, we assessed and correlated the level of formation of the most significant professionally important qualities of concrete engineers with the level of efficiency of their professional activities. At the fourth stage of the research, the development of an interactive automated program for the development of the intellectual “I” of the engineering actor activity was carried out. At the fifth stage of the survey formative experiment aimed at testing of the developed information system and processing of the experimental results using the Student’s t-criterion method was realized. Reliability, authenticity and validity of the survey results is ensured by using complex methods, adequate to the subject matter and purpose of the study, representative sample volumes and the positive results of the pilot study, measurement validity, mutual verification of the empirical data using mathematical methods in the analysis of the data, using modern and high-performance computer technology analysis of empirical material, statistical significance of the experimental data. Developed automated interactive program for the engineering actor intellectual “I” development can be used in the process of professional selection and training of engineers on-the-job, students at universities or at home
