Quality Management of Teaching Graphic Disciplines in a Technical University

The present article deals with the quality management of teaching graphic disciplines. The main idea of this article is the necessity of introducing continuous control in the teaching process. The following types of control are considered: written work, oral questioning, computer testing, and presentation of independent projects. All types of control have both advantages and disadvantages. The very technology of applying the types of control relies on a certain order. The proposed concept of continuous control implies the technology of dividing the academic group of students into subgroups with different degrees of motivation and preparation. Various correlations between the types of control allow us to give a qualimetric assessment of each student and the academic group as a whole. The teaching quality index is determined by the arithmetic mean grade of the group. Analyzing the correlations between the types of control allows us to identify the shortcomings of the learning process and promptly manage this process. The article also provides definitions of the quality of education and ways to achieve the necessary level of quality. As a result of the implementation of continuous control in the educational process of higher education institutions, both the proposed technology's positive sides and shortcomings were revealed.
