Automated construction of educational narratives as a means of informational and analytical support of extracurricular education

Abstract

Extracurricular education plays an important social role in society and helps the younger generation to discover and develop their individual interests and talents, which provides a unique opportunity to acquire vital knowledge and skills. However, in order to achieve a more positive effect, extracurricular education should be integrated with academic disciplines of general education institutions, which are based on state educational standards. This allows students not only to better assimilate the information received at school, to enrich and deepen their knowledge, but also to apply it in real life. Thus, teachers of extracurricular educational institutions are required not only to possess knowledge specific to their field, but also to have a deep understanding of relevant state educational programs to create comprehensive and balanced educational courses. Therefore, in order to increase the efficiency of their work, it is advisable to use information and analytical support using modern technological solutions, in particular, cognitive information technology “POLYEDR”. This technology allows to automate the process of processing and analyzing large amounts of information, in particular, educational programs and materials. Cognitive services deployed on the basis of this technology allow creating ontologies of educational narratives, which are offered as the basis of such information and analytical support. Such ontologies allow structuring and systematizing knowledge in an educational context. They identify key concepts and categories used in curricula and make connections between them, helping to create more organized and coherent learning materials that are better understood by students. It also allows you to identify and visualize the relationships between different educational courses and subjects, which is especially important for the development of integrated educational programs. The use of ontologies of educational narratives can significantly increase the personalization of learning, as they allow educators to adapt extracurricular courses to the individual needs and preferences of students. By knowing how knowledge is related to each other and how they influence each other, teachers can more effectively tailor lessons to the abilities and interests of their students.
