Development of technical component of the methodology for projectvector management of educational environments

Abstract

We propose tools for planning and administration of the technological component of the methodology of project-vector management of educational environments that were implemented in the applied information technology of planning and administration of activity of subjects of the educational environment. The activity of subjects of educational environments in this methodology is represented as a set of projects of different duration and with different needs for resources. The authors proposed the combined method for planning of information-product projects, which includes calculation of early and late terms of completion the work without regard to resources distribution and simulation of resources distribution among the works according to the Monte Carlo method. The result of application of this method is formation of the projects' implementation plan, which is acceptable by resources allocation and close to the optimum by the time of projects' implementation. The method for calculation of administration vectors that represent the projects' motion in the project-vector space was proposed. These vectors are constructed based on a set of scores of various aspects of development of projects of subjects of educational environments. The means for compensation of the impact of unforeseen situations on implementation of projects of subjects of educational environments were considered. Such tools include creation of reserves of resources and time to overcome areas of space, in which resistance occurs, adjustment of the path trajectory so that it should pass through the area of least resistance. Formulae for calculation of resistance to motion of a project in the project-vector space, which allow estimating the necessary reserves of resources and time for implementation of projects of subjects of educational environments, were proposed. The formulae are intended to calculate resistance to motion of projects in the project-vector environment, based on the speed of motion of a subject or an object for a certain project, taking into account coefficient of resistance to motion in the determined direction.
