Abstract:
The article looks into the matter of developing methodical recommendations for the structure and content of online courses. The research is dedicated to the analysis of peculiarities of developing the content of online systems and developing methodical recommendations for educational materials of online courses.
The research considers the experts’ experience in preparing, structuring, and developing the content of online courses and answers to the volunteers who have agreed to test the educational materials of the course “Methods for Teaching Mathematics to Students in Technical Universities” http://formathematics.com/courses/imt/mnmtzvo-en/. The participants’ responses have allowed evaluating the quality of the developed course and detecting its insignificant drawbacks. The article discusses general requirements for the structure and content of the online course, means for the implementation of a testing subsystem, peculiarities of developing educational video content and education
al materials in PDF format, issues of implementing forum and survey subsystems, as well as means of assessing learning outcomes. We have grounds to conclude that the quality of the course is determined by the range of factors, among which we point out the course organization based on weekly planning, implementation of a testing subsystem under conditions of extended functionality, creation of abilities to organize feedback.
