5. Finding the prospect of using the main opportunities among workers in the educational sector.

6. Ensuring the proper level of payment for all participants in the certification.

MCEC certification 2017–2018, monitoring and diagnostics of which provides an opportunity for employees of educational institutions to improve the quality of education, will 100% contribute to their successful development.

Webinars and courses

At the moment, we can already say that in the near future, a webinar will be held on the basis of the ICAC especially for teachers, the main task of which is to study and further use independent diagnostics to identify students' knowledge. The marked event will run from January to May 2018. To learn more about the announced opportunity, you should use the online webinar service, with which you can study useful and important information without leaving your home.

1. Detailed consideration, as well as the study of all the actions necessary for registration on the diagnostics of the 3rd stage.

2. For students in grades 4-7, such a diagnosis is considered mandatory.

3. The senior link, or rather, the 10th grade, will take part in the survey only in accordance with a strictly marked direction. We are talking about specialized training in professional educational organizations, engineering and medical classes.

4. Studying the features of conducting such thematic work, such as, for example, a healthy lifestyle. It is worth noting that the announced topic is mandatory for any Russian school.

A participant in such a meeting or webinar can be a deputy director, or a primary or secondary teacher of a general education institution.

Diagnostics and monitoring

Now the MCCS carries out a variety of diagnostics of an independent type, to assess the knowledge of teachers and their pupils. Such an order came from the Department of Education of the Russian Federation.

The described work is carried out through three stages, each of which is characterized by a number of personal characteristics. True, before proceeding with diagnostic and control work in different cities, local acts will have to be prepared in advance. In the light of such information, it becomes clear that the primary task of the administration of all schools is the planning of diagnostic measures, with the choice of their optimal number.

Stage number 1. Apply to participate in events. Registration of participants continues throughout the autumn. For a more efficient process, it is better to familiarize applicants with the information necessary for the webinar in advance, as well as adjust the mandatory diagnostics for students in grades 9 and 10 in Russian language and mathematics. To date, a webinar with the history of Russia in grade 10 is available.

Stage number 2. Submission of an application in the second level of diagnostics, taking place from December to the end of February.

Stage number 3. Apply for the opportunity to participate in the final stage of the event, which takes place from March to April.

Primary school diagnostics

If we take into account the initial link of training, a number of diagnostics and monitoring are provided for it. All of them will be held at a certain time, indicated on the ICCS website. For example, in mathematics for grade 4, the planned diagnostics of teachers will take place on April 13, 2018. But why was this discipline chosen for evaluation? What criteria were used for the final selection? Everything is very simple! The choice of the subject is carried out through a draw, which for the next year will take place in March at a conference call of the Department of Education of the Russian Federation.

The MCKO certification of 2017–2018, or rather, an autonomous state institution that conducts such diagnostics, plans to create all conditions for the further organization of various monitorings in the announced time period, according to the current applications of educational organizations. We are talking about the education of children on an extrabudgetary basis.

Work related to the creation of diagnostic data, verification or processing of the result, as well as the preparation of special kits and payment for the work of independent observers, is carried out at the expense of the educational organization that submits the application. It is necessary to remember about the marked feature.

In order for every child in Moscow to receive a quality education, there is a special organization that carefully controls this. The main tasks that the ICAC performs are to increase the efficiency of knowledge assessment, as well as to identify and train the most talented youth. Do not forget that this center is engaged in improving the effectiveness of certification.

The activities of the center for the quality of education

The main task, which the quality center is confidently achieving, is to form an effective regional assessment system. This will contribute to the development of schools and the general system of education in the capital.

New technologies are regularly used in the practice of methods for measuring the quality of knowledge, which makes it possible to more accurately determine the nature of assessing the quality of education. Based on the results, a conclusion is drawn and optimal measures are proposed that ensure the objective nature of the assessment of education. Among the main activities of the ICAC it is necessary to highlight the following:

• examination of educational programs;
• ensuring the functioning of the vocational education system;
• introduction into practice of highly efficient technologies and measurement techniques;
• accounting, storage and write-off of licensing files of educational institutions.

Extrabudgetary services of ICCO

Services

Parents and teachers have the opportunity to use the paid service provided by the MCCS. The portal contains specific information regarding the cost of each service, as well as phone numbers in order to conclude an agreement for the provision of extrabudgetary services. They fall into three main categories:

• "Independent diagnostics";
• "Additional services".

MCKO additional services

The last item on the list includes the "Exam for Russian language proficiency." This is necessary for those persons who need to obtain a residence permit or citizenship of the Russian Federation. Additionally, you can order services for analysis, expertise and development of a quality assessment system. Control specialists will help to cope with any task.

Centers for independent diagnostics

On the site, everyone can find a section that meets his needs.

Categories

Teachers and parents can use the free services of the ICEC to analyze the quality of their education. To do this, you must contact the Center for Independent Diagnostics, after calling the phone number to leave a request for a group or individual check. Popular free services include laboratory diagnostics in physics in 3D format for grades 7-11. This greatly simplifies the process of preparing students for upcoming exams.

Anyone can use them after pre-registration. There is also such a service as the diagnosis of subject knowledge for the students of the CPC, which costs only five hundred and eighty rubles.

Each educational organization can order independent diagnostics in the USE format. This is an opportunity for students to test their knowledge and prepare psychologically for the exams, feeling themselves in the same conditions that they will be during testing.

MCKO personal account

Ratings

To get full access to MCKO services, you must first register and visit your personal account. This will allow you to find out the results regarding requests, take tests online and get full access to all information that may be of interest to the user.

Registration is not a difficult process. It will only be enough to provide basic contact information, such as a phone number and email address. After that, you need to confirm your identity and you can freely use this service.

Contacts

How to get there

Of course, there is enough useful information on the website of the Education Quality Center, but it is often necessary to consult with a specialist personally. It is for this that it is necessary to find data on contacts and the location of offices.

On the official website, you can see images of "Yandex maps" with specific information on how best to get to a particular office. Be sure to include information about the hours and days of admission.

MCKO is an important organization that controls the education of children in Moscow. It is this authority that conducts each monitoring and analyzes how effectively schoolchildren study. Based on the results obtained, action plans are created, what and how to implement in order to effectively achieve the goal.

Monitoring and diagnostics

Additionally, a comprehensive provision of conditions for the formation and functioning of the quality of education is carried out. At the same time, modern and highly effective technologies with measurement methods are regularly introduced into practice, which guarantee the objective nature of assessing the level of students' knowledge.

The Moscow Center for the Quality of Education conducts a large number of inspections of educational institutions every year in order to control the effectiveness of education and identify gaps in the educational process.

The most qualitative are independent diagnostics of educational institutions. They are also the most popular.

Each school has its own internal monitoring of the quality of the educational process. All tasks (dictations, tests) are prepared by the teachers of this school, they also check.

As a result, a subjective assessment is created, which can sometimes differ from the actual picture.

Independent assessments make it possible to create an objective situation at the current moment, and also allow you to compare the successes of students from one educational institution in comparison with another.

Analysis of the identified errors allows you to quickly, timely adjust the educational process, eliminating all shortcomings.

Schools decide on their own which diagnostics to sign up for and how many classes will take part.

The administration has the opportunity to pre-select the time, since all diagnostics are carried out according to the annual plan.

Unfortunately, very often there are such situations that schools expose only one, the best class for diagnostics.

In this way, they try to put their school with the best result.

But here you need to understand that diagnostics is not a competition, but a tool to help the quality of the educational process.

First of all, such checks are needed by the schools themselves, and not by the center for the quality of education.

In addition, it is possible not to save data in the school portfolio. Within two weeks, the school can analyze the results and make a request to the MCCS for non-saving them.

This opportunity is especially important for teachers who will soon be undergoing certification for a category upgrade, which necessarily takes into account the assessment of the performance of the class in which they teach.

Parents can see in their personal accounts information about which subject the diagnostics are scheduled for and when. This way they can help their child get ready.

Running Diagnostic Tests

Diagnostics is a paid service. Therefore, if there are problems at the school on the day of the appointment of the test, and they ask to cancel it, then the re-diagnosis will have to be paid again.

First of all, you need to understand that information on the assigned diagnostics appears on the official website of the MCCS a month before its appointment. There is also a demo.

The teacher must be familiar with all materials. The next step is to prepare the students. One of the points of preparation is filling out the answer forms.

Absolutely all students, before the test, must clearly understand how to fill out the form correctly.

This is very important so that there are no stupid mistakes. Instructional and methodological materials appear on the site, available to teachers and schoolchildren, as well as webinars, the schedule of which is in the “monitoring and diagnostics” section (this section will be discussed below).

Webinars are good because in addition to receiving information, there is an opportunity to ask all your questions online and get full answers to them.

After the verification, the results will be uploaded to the school's personal accounts. They can be analyzed and corrected by the teacher.

The results of the check can be considered unreliable if violations were found during the conduct (according to independent experts) or a large number of corrections were made in the student response forms.

Official website of the ICCS

All information about monitoring and diagnostics is available on the official website of the Moscow Center for Educational Quality.

It can be found in three sections:

• "Leaders".
• "Educators".
• "To the parents."

But in all cases, there will be a transfer to the page - "For managers" - "Monitoring and diagnostics".

This section contains basic information and links to specific types of checks.

The main information contains data on contacts, stages of diagnostics, links to instructive and methodological materials, information about each subject diagnostics.

Types of checks:

1. National Educational Quality Surveys
2. International comparative studies of the quality of education
3. Computer diagnostics
4. Fundamentals of economic knowledge

National Educational Quality Surveys

When you open this section, information about three types of assessment appears:

• All-Russian verification work;
• National Studies on the Quality of Education;
• Study of teachers' competencies.

All-Russian verification work has been carried out since 2015 in order to ensure the unity of the educational space of the Russian Federation and support the implementation of the Federal State Educational Standard.

In fact, these are tests for individual assessment of students. In general, there is an objective analysis of the quality of education at the intermediate stages of education, and not at the end of the year.

When carrying out such work, uniform standards for conducting, checking and evaluating in all regions of the Russian Federation are used, they are set out in the procedure for conducting the VRP.

External participants, most often from among parents, are invited during the conduction as independent observers.

National studies of the quality of education - conducted since 2014. The NIKO program is individual research projects on specific subjects at a specific time.

Projects - work on academic subjects, questioning students and collecting information about the learning process.

The purpose of NIKO is to identify students' subject and interdisciplinary skills and the formation of learning activities.

NIKOs are held strictly according to the schedule, anonymously, there is no link to the data of the students. The sampling of educational institutions takes place at the federal level by the program.

The results are used to assess the quality of the education system as a whole, not the performance of a particular school or its teachers. These checks are carried out annually, and the results are discussed at conferences to assess the quality of education.

The study of teachers' competencies has been conducted since 2015. The initiators of such inspections are the Federal Service for Supervision and Control in Education (Rosobrnadzor).

The goal is to evaluate and match teachers with the position and category.

Only professionals who every day strive for self-improvement and improvement of their competencies should be engaged in the education of schoolchildren.

At the moment, there are no uniform mechanisms for the Russian Federation to ensure the quality of teachers' work. This type of assessment is aimed precisely at achieving unity in this problem.

The essence of the ICU is the anonymous filling of questionnaires with professional and sociological questions. The results are used to polish the education system, not to evaluate a particular school and its staff.

International comparative studies of the quality of education

It provides information on research at the international level, a comparison of education systems from different countries in order to identify gaps in the Russian system, taking innovations from other countries.

This section includes several programs:

• International comparative study "Studying the quality of reading and understanding of the text" PIRLS - a comparison of the level of reading and understanding of the text by primary school students in different countries of the world. Research is needed to understand the differences and effectiveness of different education systems. They have been held every 5 years since 2001.
• The international program for assessing the educational achievements of students PISA is an assessment of the educational achievements of students who have reached the age of fifteen. Within the framework of this study, the knowledge and skills acquired in life are assessed in three areas - "reading literacy", "mathematical literacy", "science literacy". They are held every 3 years, starting from the year 200.
• The international program for assessing the educational achievements of students PISA based Test for Schools is an addition to the previous program. Answers to the same questions but in order to identify the readiness of students to fully function in society.
• The TIMSS Benchmarking Study on the Quality of General Education is a comparative assessment of fourth and eighth grade students' preparation in mathematics and science. It has been held every 4 years since 1995.
• Comparative study of the quality of general education TIMSS - Ad Advanced - a study of the preparation of high school graduates who study in depth mathematics and physics. These two subjects are priority in terms of intellectual preparation of students. Such studies were carried out in 1995, 2008 and 2015.
• International Study of Computer and Information Literacy ICILS is a study of students' knowledge, skills and abilities in computer and information literacy. Eighth grade students are assessed. The study was conducted in 2013, the next one is planned for 2018.
• International study on civic education in the 8th grade of general educational institutions ICCS - assesses the readiness of schoolchildren to become citizens of their country, their attitude to their civic duty. Research has been carried out since 1999.
• TEDS-M is an international study on the study of teacher education systems and the assessment of the quality of teacher training in primary and secondary schools in mathematics - was conducted in 2008. In addition to current teachers, students of higher educational institutions - future teachers - took part in the study.
• An international study of teaching and learning systems was conducted with the aim of tracing the school environment, the conditions in which teachers work. Research has been carried out since 2008.

In this section, a small material is given about each program, which describes the process of implementation and the results obtained. A link to the source is also given, which the user can consult if necessary.

Computer diagnostics

When opening this section, it is proposed to pass training tests in subjects. Anyone can take advantage of this opportunity. It is very important to test your knowledge before independent diagnostics. Each user has his own password and login, which indicates the confidentiality of information.

Fundamentals of economic knowledge

If you select this section, the system offers to solve a demonstration test on financial literacy. In today's world it is very important to be financially literate.

The banking sector, as well as economic life in general, is developing.

Now financial services are available, including to schoolchildren from 14 years old. At this age, they can already open accounts (naturally, with the consent of their parents or their representatives), use bank cards, and open deposits.

Therefore, everyone should have the basics of knowledge in order to properly manage funds and prevent financial fraud.

Monitoring and diagnostics is a very important activity of the Moscow Center for Educational Quality.

Thanks to him, the teaching staff of schools can timely monitor the gaps in their educational process and effectively eliminate them.

Despite the fact that the service is paid, its significance is great and undeniable. That is why all schools, without exception, use independent diagnostics.

ICCA certification in 2016-2017 presents various methods and webinars for all educational workers, with the help of which you can improve your self-development, as well as bring the quality of education in the state to a new level.

Courses

Today it can be said with certainty that the Moscow Center for the Quality of Education is going to hold a webinar on the use, study and application of diagnostics of achievements, students in 2016. If such information is of interest to any representatives of the educational sphere, then now you can use the services of the vibinar in real time via the Internet. This will help anyone who wants to get useful information through the network without leaving home.

It is worth noting a few points regarding the marked courses.

1. Here will be a detailed review of all those steps to register for third level diagnostics.

2. For students in grades 4 and 7, monitoring and diagnostics will be mandatory.

3. For students of grade 10, diagnostics should be carried out in a strictly indicated direction: training in professional organizations, an engineering class or a medical class.

4. It is necessary to study all the nuances of the future testing work "Healthy lifestyle". The marked topics are considered one of the list of mandatory for each school.

Participants in such courses and webinars can be teachers of secondary and primary levels of a comprehensive school or deputy directors.

Monitoring and diagnostics

Today, in addition to the noted work, various diagnostics are carried out at the MCCS regarding the educational achievements of students. This is the order of the Department of Education of the Russian Federation.

All marked work should be carried out or planned according to 3 main stages. Each of them is characterized by a set of its features and rules of execution. Before you begin to carry out diagnostic or control work on various maps, it is worth preparing local acts in advance. In this case, the primary task of the administration of the educational institution is the planning of the noted diagnostic measure, or the choice of their exact number for the future.

Stage 1. Initially, it is necessary to submit an application that there is a desire to take part in the event, which is part of the first stage. All of them will last from the beginning of the school year to the end of November. For a more efficient process, it is necessary to properly familiarize students in grades 9 and 10 with all the webinar materials necessary for this in order to diagnose the Russian language and mathematics. Since 2017, the history of Russia for the 10th grade has also been included in this list of subjects.

Stage 2. At the second stage, an application is submitted for participation in the next stage of diagnostics, which will take place until the end of February 2017.

Stage 3. Application for the opportunity to participate in all activities of the final stage of diagnostics, which will take place from March to April 2017.

Diagnosis of elementary grades

For the very first link of the entire educational process, its own forms of diagnostics and monitoring are also being prepared, each form of which can take place at a specially allotted time. For example, diagnostics in mathematics for children in grade 4 should take place on April 14, as it is scheduled for the allotted time. The question immediately arises why this particular subject was chosen at this time? Everything is much simpler than it can show, the exact choice of discipline depending on the time is carried out using the draw, which took place on March 31, 2016 at a meeting of the Department of Education.

MCEC certification can also be called an autonomous educational institution of the state type, in 2017 it plans to conduct a fairly large number of a number of diagnostics and monitoring according to previously compiled applications from various educational organizations. This will deal primarily with the issue of student achievement in relation to the extrabudgetary basis.

It is worth noting that all the work, which consists of a whole list of actions, is fully paid for by the educational organization that applies for participation. This includes the preparation of specially designed kits, the creation of diagnostic information, the processing and verification of all test results, and the payment of all independent observers who understood participation in the survey. It is worth thinking about this point before the organization decides to apply for participation in the ICAC certification for the next year.

Taking part in such webinars or diagnostics is not a mandatory item for 2017, but for every institution that needs to monitor the knowledge of its students, such work will be very useful. Other information regarding the conduct of the marked test surveys, as well as the rules for conducting and can be found on the official website of the ICCS.
