Введение. Дистанционное образование на современном этапе развития мировой образовательной практики приобрело глобальный характер в связи с пандемией COVID-19. Существенно расширился спектр образовательных услуг; выросло количество образовательных организаций и учреждений, задействованных в такой форме образования; огромное количество обучающихся использует интернет, гаджеты и наукоемкие сервисы. Дистанционное образование позволяет, в случае необходимости, при помощи интернета получить «удаленное» образование. Цель – анализ и характеристика основных эффективных форм организации обучения в высшей школе в условиях дистанционного образования. Материал и методы. Материалом для исследования послужили работы отечественных и зарубежных исследователей, рассматривающих проблемы и преимущества дистанционного образования: А. А. Андреева, И. А. Кузнецовой, А. Г. Сломчинской, Е. А. Таушкановой, J. S. Brown, Y. B. Kolikant, M. Miah и A. Omar, а так-же материалы, полученные в ходе практической работы в условиях «дистанта» в Елецком государственном университете им. И. А. Бунина. В качестве методов в работе использованы теоретический и методологический анализ, сравнение, метод педагогической интерпретации данных, обобщение, конкретизация. Методологической основой проведенного исследования послужили основные современные психологические, социологические и философские положения теории личности и ее развития. Результаты и обсуждение. Дистанционное образование обладает целым рядом характерных черт: гибкость, модульность, инновационный контроль качества образования, ролевой репертуар преподавателя, экономическая выгода и т. п., а также специфических принципов (принцип свободного доступа, принцип дистанционности, принцип интерактивности, принцип идентификации, принцип адекватности и целесообразности использования цифровых технологий в дистанционном образовании). Внедрение дистанционного образования способствует появлению новых, более эффективных форм обучения, разработка которых строится с учетом перечисленных характеристик. В качестве эффективных форм можно рассматривать разработку и реализацию необходимого для освоения дисциплины перечня основной и дополнительной литературы, учебно-методических комплектов литературы и заданий; рассылку по e-mail обучающих материалов как студентам, так и преподавателям от студентов; организацию и проведение дискуссий и консультаций в онлайн-формате с использованием облачных платформ ZOOM, Jitsi и т. д., бесплатного приложения WhatsApp для личных смартфонов, социальной сети «ВКонтакте», приложения Telegram др.; разработку и реализацию компьютерных баз данных, электронных учебников и т. д.; проведение видеоконференций с возможностью для зрителей позвонить по «горячей линии» и задать вопросы и т. д. Видеолекция также является эффективной формой дистанционного обучения, позволяющей охватить большое количество слушателей, активизирующей мыслительную дельность студентов и мотивирующей на самостоятельный поиск в рамках изучаемой дисциплины. Заключение. В связи с тем, что дистанционное образование обладает широким диапазоном мультимедийных, интерактивных, коммуникативных и технических возможностей, способствует формированию и развитию ИКТ-компетентности, расширяет спектр возможностей в плане использования разных информационных инструментов, оно может органически вплетаться в систему очного обучения или стать весомой альтернативой традиционному обучению. Эффективность и успех внедрения дистанционных технологий образования зависят от грамотной и качественной организации образовательного процесса и использования эффективных форм обучения. Introduction. Distance education at the present stage of the development of world educational practice has become global. The range of educational services has expanded significantly; the number of educational organizations and institutions involved in this form of education has increased; a huge number of students use the Internet, gadgets and knowledge-based services. Distance education allows, if necessary, using the Internet to obtain “remote” education. This need today has become the epidemiological situation in the world with the spread of infection caused by coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 (2019-nCoV). The aim of the study was to analyze and characterize the main effective forms of organizing education in higher education in the new conditions of organizing the educational process. Material and methods. The material for the study was the work of domestic and foreign researchers, considering the problems and advantages of distance education: A. A. Andreeva, I. A. Kuznetsova, A. G. Slomchinskaya, E. A. Taushkanova, J. S. Brown, Y. B. Kolikant, M. Miah & A. Omar, as well as materials obtained during practical work under the conditions of “distance” in Bunin Yelets State University. Theoretical and methodological analysis, comparison, method of pedagogical interpretation of data, generalization, concretization were used as methods in the work. The methodological basis of the study was the main modern psychological, sociological and philosophical provisions of the theory of personality and its development. Results and discussion. Distance education has a number of characteristic features: flexibility, modularity, innovative control of the quality of education, role repertoire of the teacher, economic benefit, etc., as well as specific principles: the principle of free access, the principle of distance, the principle of interactivity, the principle of identification, the principle of adequacy and expediency of using digital technologies in distance education. The introduction of distance education contributes to the emergence of new, more effective educational forms, the development of which is based on the listed characteristics. As effective forms of distance education, one can consider the development and implementation of the necessary for mastering the discipline of the list of basic and additional literature, educational and methodological sets of literature and tasks; sending educational materials to both students and teachers from students, using e-mail (in e-mail).; organization and conduct of discussions and consultations in online format using cloud platforms ZOOM, Jitsi, etc., free application WhatsApp for personal smartphones, social network VKontakte, application Telegram, etc.; development and implementation of computer databases, electronic textbooks, etc.; videoconferences similar to live TV shows with the opportunity for viewers to call the “hotline” and ask their questions, etc. Video lecture is also an effective form of distance education, allowing to reach a large number of students, activating the mental delicacy of students and motivating for independent search within the framework of the studied discipline. Conclusion. In modern conditions, the use of remote educational technologies has a large number of advantages. Since distance education has a wide range of multimedia, interactive, communicative and technical capabilities, contributes to the formation and development of ICT competence, expands the range of opportunities for the use of various information tools, it can organically weave into the full-time learning system, or become a significant alternative to traditional learning. The effectiveness and success of the introduction of distance education technologies depend on the competent and high-quality organization of the educational process and the use of effective forms of education.

Web portals constitute a rapidly evolving medium for transferring information and knowledge, as well as for establishing the means for cooperation and the coordination of activities among different parties. More specifically, a Web portal is a Web site that provides a gateway to resources available on the Internet or within an intranet. A Web portal typically includes a number of facilities for access and navigation of information, socialization, collaboration, and trade, as well as other user aid facilities. Although portals are accessed by a wide range of different parties, most portals are designed with limited attention to the different individual needs and preferences of Web users. As a result, they often present serious shortcomings in terms of usefulness, ease of access and use, and subjective satisfaction of the users.

Unlike most traditional media, the Internet is both digital and interactive. Here we do not simply refer to interactions between consumers and a Web site or e-mail, but also between the marketer and the firm’s Web site or e-mail. Furthermore, the digital nature of the Internet records every interaction. These two characteristics — interactivity and digitization — facilitate research possibilities that would be cumbersome and costly using earlier media such as print, radio and television. On the Internet, marketers receive instant feedback on any tactical decision in the form of server log data. We believe that due to technical hurdles, both practitioners and academics under-utilize this omnipresent data residing in server log files. This is unfortunate for practitioners because their online efforts are far less efficient and effective than they could be. This is also unfortunate for academics because even small sites can generate massive amounts of rich data in relatively short times. This chapter introduces readers to server log files and how the basic information in these files helps management achieve goals for their Web sites and e-mail communication. Next, the chapter uses examples to illustrate how server log files make running online experiments easier than one would expect. The chapter closes with a call for more use of server log files in interdisciplinary research, and collaboration between industry and academia.

Internet communication and Internet discourse is the subject of study of many disciplines: sociology, psychology, management, rhetoric, journalism and some others. But the linguistic aspect of Being a universal means of mass and individual communication, Internet discourse enabled the instantaneous transmission of information regardless of distance and geographic location. A huge virtual area of the Internet offers the user a wide range of platforms: media, blogs, information sites, cinema, literature, wikis projects, shops and auctions, advertising, payment and search engines, e-mail, chats, forums, messengers, social networks, radio, television, information portals, etc. Internet communication is characterized by the following features: 1) polyphony; 2) Hypertext and interactive features of the Network; 3) anonymity and distantness. Internet discourse, like any other type of discourse, is characterized by a number of structural and lexical-grammatical features. A hashtag is a label for content. It helps others who are interested in a certain topic, quickly find content on that same topic. People use hashtags in their Instagram and Twitter posts but there is not enough knowledge about their real meaning and what they are used for. According to its structure, a hashtag can be a single word, an abbreviation, an invented combination of letters and numbers, or a phrase. If it is a phrase, there can be no spaces between words. All letters and numbers must run together without spaces in a hashtag. It is not possible to have punctuation or symbols in your hashtag (other than the # symbol at the beginning). Numbers are allowed, but it is necessary to have at least one letter with the numbers — hashtags cannot consist entirely of numbers. According to its meaning, a hashtag can be related to a great variety of topics: private life, personal characteristics, nature, holidays, events, activities, emotions, travelling and many others.
