Problems of scientific interactions between pedagogical universities and educational development institutions

The research problem and the rationale for its relevance. The relevance of the study is due to the target of the national project “Education” - the entry of the Russian Federation into the top ten leading countries in the world in terms of the quality of general education. This requires uniting the forces of all subjects of the education system, bringing pedagogical universities and educational development institutions to a qualitatively new level of scientific (scientific and methodological) interaction, without whose scientific (scientific and methodological) support the modernization of school education is impossible. An analysis of the scientific (scientific and methodological) interaction of pedagogical universities and educational development institutions makes it possible to identify existing patterns and problems, the knowledge of which is necessary for the development of an effective national cluster model of such interaction. The goal of the research is to identify the problems of scientific and methodological interaction between pedagogical universities and educational development institutions. Methodology. Methodology and research methods include analysis of scientific literature and regulatory framework, questionnaire survey of representatives of pedagogical universities and educational institutions using Google Forms, statistical processing and content analysis of responses by four key parameters: 1) overall goal; 2) the legal basis; 3) forms of joint activity; 4) mechanisms of interaction management. Results. The study has revealed the following problems: the common goal is not clearly defined; pedagogical universities are focused on the implementation of fundamental scientific researches, and in their turn educational development institutes are focused on applied researches; the legal basis of joint activities requires improvement; the existence of formal contractual relations is not the basis of scientific interaction; forms of joint activities are poorly institutionalized and most often reduced to personal contacts; collaborative public events with scientific status have only declarative nature; activity in terms of scientific and methodological interaction is not very high.
