Developing an Educational, Pedagogical and Teaching Logistics System for the Higher Education Ecosystem

Abstract

Background and Aim of Study: Contemporary realities are rapidly changing the education landscape. Developing scientific methodology, theory and technologies, including digitalisation and artificial intelligence, requires us to rethink the organisation of the educational process in terms of implementing a logistics system. The aim of the study: to substantiate the interconnection and mutual influence of educational, pedagogical and teaching logistics as elements of the logistics system, and to develop a model of the logistics system of developing the higher education ecosystem. Material and Methods: The present study employed a systems approach methodology and a complex of theoretical research methods. A modelling method was used to develop a model of the logistics system of developing the higher education ecosystem. Results: The essence of the concepts of “educational logistics” and “pedagogical logistics” was clarified, and the concept of “teaching logistics” was introduced into scientific circulation. These concepts were considered for the first time as interconnected and interdependent elements of the logistics system with the possibility of integrating these elements into the higher education ecosystem. To develop the higher education ecosystem, a model of the logistics system containing educational, pedagogical and teaching logistics subsystems was created. Conclusions: The developed model reflects the role of influence for resource flows in achieving the goals of the structural and functional components of the logistics system, as well as the place of stakeholders within this system and the possibilities of using artificial intelligence in each of the educational, pedagogical, and teaching logistics subsystems. Implementing a model of the logistics system of developing the higher education ecosystem will optimise and increase the efficiency of the educational process.
