Abstract

The research is devoted to analysing the transformation of the SPOD world (Steady, Predictable, Ordinary, Definite) into the VUCA world (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous) and defining the main features of the VUCA in the education system. The authors of the article consider the feasibility and effectiveness of the application of the Agile Manifesto in the education system. The research also attempts to interpret the education system through the principles of the Agile Manifesto and shows the impact that modern educational environments have on maintaining relative stability in conditions of uncertainty. The article outlines some fundamental issues that identify potential trajectories of the education sector development and pinpoints the skills that should be developed in modern university teachers in order for the potential of both universities and their students to be fully unlocked.
