Trends in the development of distance learning technologies

Abstract

The article analyzes the features of the implementation of distance education in Ukraine and the prospects for its development in the domestic educational space. The methodological features of the implementation of distance education in the context of the competency-based approach are considered. The object of the study is the development of distance education in Ukraine. The article examines global trends in the development of the world education system, analyzes the main milestones of the implementation of distance and blended education, identifies key stakeholders of distance learning and their goals, and also focuses on the need to develop new didactic tools, in particular, smart technologies and smart manuals for an effective distance learning system. It is proposed to begin this work with the development of the concept of a smart manual and the design of the corresponding training blocks. It is found that in the modern world this is impossible without constant professional development, because everything around is constantly being improved and scientific and technological progress is relentlessly moving forward. And this same technology, on the one hand, guarantees high-quality training with the participation of professional teachers of the highest level, on the other hand, adjusts the teaching methodology depending on the level of training of students and their psychological characteristics identified in previous tests. Thirdly, correction of teaching methods. Learning takes place at home, at a computer, at a time convenient for the student. It has been determined that distance education is a technology of the future. It can be used in any educational system to perform a wide range of educational, training, educational and personal tasks. For this reason, new achievements in distance education require development and implementation. It is even possible that in the future this technology will replace existing schools, universities and other educational institutions. The following methods were used in the presented study: theoretical analysis of educational and methodological literature on the organization of distance learning and the use of smart technologies to increase the efficiency of the educational process.
