The influence of «Navigators» on the perception and use of open educational resources
https://doi.org/10.20913/2224-1841-2025-3-12
Abstract
Introduction. In the context of the sustainable development of information technology, open educational resources (OER) are becoming one of the key tools in the scientific and educational field. The effectiveness of their use depends on the degree of awareness of their usefulness and accessibility to users. Purpose setting. The purpose of this article is to monitor the perception of OER and analyze the impact of «OER Navigators» on the dynamics of their application in educational practice. Methodology and methodology of the study. The study used both quantitative and qualitative methods, including questionnaires and oral interviews of teachers and students. An analysis of statistical data on attendance at the Library for Open Science, a platform providing access to the developed OER Navigators, was also carried out (https://lib-os.ru/issledovatelyam/resursy/obrazovatelnye-resursy/) in all fields of knowledge, as well as the use of OER. Results. The monitoring data obtained allowed us to collect a variety of information about the perception of these resources. The results showed that the use of «Navigators» significantly increases users' interest in OER. Statistical data indicate an increase in their use in the educational process and scientific research, which confirms the effectiveness of «Navigators» in simplifying access to high-quality educational materials. Conclusion. Monitoring the perception of OER demonstrates
a positive trend in their use due to the introduction of «Navigators». This highlights the need for further development and support of OER, as well as the creation of strategies to facilitate their integration into the educational environment.
