Methodology of Strategic Planning For the Development of Educational Ecosystems

The growing economic, social and digital inequality in the world, turbulence of economic and social processes lead to disorientation of educational organizations in development priorities. There are threats of stagnation and lag in the development of educational organizations, ineffective use of resources. The active development of ideas for sustainable development and the digital transformation of socio-economic relations induce educational organizations to revise long-term development programs. The study is aimed at solving the urgent problem of uncertainty in the strategic planning of the development of educational organizations in the context of digital transformation, socio-economic instability, challenges of the 21st century and new requirements for a specialist. The analysis of the studies showed that the professional community is actively discussing educational ecosystems of different types, based on the relationship between the participants and digital educational technologies. The methodology of strategic planning for the development of educational ecosystems presented in the work is considered as a complex of scientific methods: system analysis, classification, personality-oriented and ecosystem approaches. In the context of the concept of continuous, sustainable development, the educational ecosystem should be considered as a complex self-organizing, self-regulating and self-developing community — a group of people united by common interests, using common resources and a system of connections for learning and development. Using the example of the RANEPA North-West Institute of Management, it is shown that the use of the ecosystem approach for strategic development planning allows you to get the most complete and holistic view of the educational organization, its environment and role in the development of society. The methodology of strategic planning for the development of educational ecosystems allows: to create better models for the development than the generally accepted models of managing the educational process; develop an “ecosystem” strategy for the development of an educational organization; avoid costs and waste of resources in the context of digital transformation and dynamic changes in social relations.
