Actual problems of modern education in technical university

Relevance. This research review focuses on the critical issues within technical education, emphasizing the need for new educational strategies and techniques to enhance learning outcomes. Purpose. The primary goal of this review is to investigate the factors influencing vocational education, particularly in the context of technical universities, and to evaluate the impact of current educational practices. Methodology. An analytical review of existing scientific publications on technical education was conducted to gather data on the effectiveness of traditional teaching methods and the integration of information and communication technologies (ICT) in education. Results. The review revealed significant challenges, including the low motivation of students and the inadequate competence of lecturers who prefer traditional teaching methods. These issues have persisted in technical education for many years. Additionally, the study highlighted the deficiencies in the modern educational process at technical universities, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic, which necessitated the development of adaptive distance education systems. Conclusions. The authors discuss the theoretical approaches to organizing the educational process in modern higher education institutions and propose practical recommendations for the administration of these institutions. These recommendations aim to improve teaching methods, including the implementation of adaptive learning in higher education, to address the identified shortcomings and enhance the quality of technical education.
