Research article evaluation toolkit as a means of studying the research potential of additional professional education teachers

The research problem and the rationale for its relevance. The task of assessing the effectiveness of the research activities of additional professional education teachers, which are reflected in their scientific articles, is actualized. The importance of the resonance effect of the teacher's publication activity, which is expressed in the fact that his/her article will be cited, and the proposed solutions will be applied in pedagogical practice, is pointed out. It is noted that the indicators used in the practice of evaluating scientific articles do not fully reflect the personal research potential of the author in presenting the qualitative results of scientific work. The goal of the research is to determine, justify and approve the criteria for evaluating the scientific article, allowing to get the most complete picture of the scientific potential of the teacher of additional professional education. The literature review revealed that scientific periodicals describe the experience of building a system of assessment of research potential of scientific and pedagogical staff on the basis of scientometric criteria, studied ways of quantitative and qualitative assessment of the content of scientific articles. However, there is no experience in assessing the research potential of teachers in the system of additional professional education. The article characterizes the methodological foundations of the study, related to the theoretical provisions of qualimetry. The research applied methods of scientific literature analysis, abstraction, formalization, expert evaluations. This allowed to carry out theoretical research and approbation of the identified criteria for evaluating a scientific article. In the course of the study the following results were obtained. Scientific novelty and theoretical significance have: criteria for evaluating a scientific article, allowing to get the most complete picture of the scientific potential of a teacher of additional professional education; designed algorithm of expert evaluation (including three stages). The developed toolkit for evaluating the scientific potential of teachers is the author's development. The proposed criteria for evaluating scientific articles have practical significance and can be used to develop regulations on the competition of scientific articles, to improve the editorial and publishing policy of scientific journals, to develop systems for intra-organizational evaluation of the effectiveness of scientific activity.
