STRATEGY FOR ENSURING THE QUALITY OF DISTANCE EDUCATION IN UKRAINE

The purpose of the article is to characterise the formation of a strategy for ensuring the quality of distance education in Ukraine. Methods: content analysis of modern literature, analysis, synthesis, and modelling were used. The main criteria for selecting scientific sources are relevance, reliability, and impartiality. The scientific novelty is the professional development of a modern strategy for ensuring the quality of distance education in Ukraine based on the analysis of modern pedagogical literature. The results of the study describe four stages of the formation of an innovative strategy for ensuring the quality of distance education in Ukraine. It is determined that similar to the system of traditional full-time education, distance learning requires the establishment of rules and the creation of a comprehensive framework and guidelines. At the same time, the clarity and balance of educational regulations is important in the system of empowering educational institutions to ensure the effective participation of both teachers and students at all levels. The results note that the key components of a quality assurance strategy for distance education are programme planning, selection of appropriate digital technologies, teacher training, assessment and reporting, and continuous improvement of the entire educational system. Monitoring and identification of risk areas are also important parts of the strategy, which provide an accurate understanding of the dynamics of educational outcomes and facilitate timely adjustment of the educational process in distance learning. The conclusions emphasise that monitoring is a particularly important part of this strategy. It is this process that helps to ensure effective and high-quality education that meets the needs of modern students and society.
