In an era where the demand for innovative educational strategies is paramount, the effectiveness of teaching methods in fostering student learning has come under scrutiny. A recent study by Evgeniy Terentev, Irina Shcheglova, Denis Federiakin, Yuliya Koreshnikova, and Jamie Costley delves into the contrasting realms of active and passive teaching approaches within the context of economics and management education at a leading Russian university. By examining how these teaching methodologies influence student performance across various cognitive levels, the authors aim to shed light on the vital role of instructional practices in preparing students for success in an increasingly complex and competitive knowledge economy.

Student satisfaction is crucial for universities aiming to improve education and keep students engaged. Irina Shcheglova, Jamie Costley, Elena Gorbunova, and Christopher Lange delve into whether tasks that require higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) make students more satisfied with their academic experiences.

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, education systems worldwide underwent an unprecedented transformation, propelled by the urgent need for digital solutions. A study by Diana Koroleva and Anastasia Andreeva explores this phenomenon through the concept of ‘Shock Innovation,’ shedding light on how crises can accelerate technological adoption in education.

From 23 to 28 June 2024, the delegation of HSE University made a number of visits to leading universities in China. During the visit, representatives of the Institute of Education — Maxim Nikitin and Svetlana Zhuchkova — shared current results and ideas of the strategic project "Success and Self-Sustainability of the Individual in a Changing World" and exchanged proposals for cooperation in future research and projects.

At the BRICS Civil Society Forum, leaders of non-profit organizations and experts discussed the future of education in their countries. Experts from the Institute of Education actively participated in the forum. The meeting led to a number of suggestions for deepening cooperation in this field.

While the global tide swayed toward an expansion in doctoral education, Russia found itself swimming against the current, experiencing a dip in enrollments from 2010 to 2019. However, the year 2020 witnessed an unexpected change of fortunes, with an 11% uptick in admissions year-on-year. This curious scenario unfolded in the throes of a global pandemic that had wrought havoc on higher education systems.

IOE’s Natalia Maloshonok, Svetlana Zhuchkova, Saule Bekova, and Evgeniy Terentev have set off on a quest to unveil the forces that have led to the surge in doctoral enrollments in Russia amid the pandemic, and the potential consequences looming on the horizon.

COVID-19 has had a swift and ubiquitously profound social impact arguably unseen at any other point of crisis in recent history. As the pandemic marched on, Russian education experienced a hard time settling into the new lay of the land with COVID-induced disruptions defying much of the system’s common norms, standards, and practices.

Anastasia Andreeva, Diana Koroleva, Sergei Kosaretsky, and Isaak Frumin have embarked on a research journey to explore how various stakeholders in Russian K—11 education interacted amid a tapestry of centrifugal and centripetal winds stirred by COVID-19. A chapter summarizing the study findings has been published in Springer’s Schools and Society During the COVID-19 Pandemic: How Education Systems Changed and the Road Ahead.

On Tuesday, June 6, a regular online session as part of the HSE—IOE weekly seminar series ‘Modern Research & Developments in Education’ is hosting an open talk titled, ‘What ICT skills of graduates do employers need?’ by Dr. Jake Murdoch, Institute for Research in the Sociology and Economics of Education, University of Bourgogne, France.

We are happy to announce an English release of IOE’s 'White Books' analytical series, a research endeavor as comprehensive and in-depth as no other study on the Russian educational system carried out so far.

The results of a study into the impact of global trends on Russian education show that future education will rely on hybrid formats, micro-credentials and dual learning. The study was conducted by the Laboratory for Educational Innovation Research of the HSE Institute of Education in cooperation with the Rosatom State Atomic Energy Corporation. This is the second study on this topic.
