The authors of the article draw attention to the relevance of the use of e-learning tools to improve the quality of student preparation, as well as they consider the specifics of pedagogical communication within the framework of the information and educational environment. The language of education changes: there is a transition from written forms to audiovisual ones. In addition to traditional actors of the educational process (a teacher and a student), the third actor appears. It is learning tools that operate on the basis of information and communication technologies. The use of e-learning resources in the learning process allows to provide flexible forms of students’ interaction with a teacher and educational content; to organize interactive learning, follow-up and final assessment; to facilitate the management of the educational process for a teacher. The combination of in-class and online (extramural) forms of attendance is most effective. Also, it is necessary to include a cooperative learning approach in the e-learning model. The article describes the experience of using the virtual learning environment (Moodle) in organization of the educational process in a number of subjects (“Psychology of Lying”, “Ergonomics”, etc.) for the students of humanitarian and electrical engineering majors.

Humans need assistance in learning. This is particularly true when learning is supported by modern information and communication technologies. Most current IT systems appear as more or less complex tools. The more ambitious the problems in the application domain are, the more complex are the tools. This is one of the key obstacles to a wider acceptance of technology enhanced learning approaches (e-learning, for short). In computer science, in general, and in e-learning, in particular, we do need a paradigmatic shift from tools of a growing complexity to intelligent assistants to the human user. Computerized assistants that are able to adapt to their human users’ needs and desires need some ability to learn. In e-learning, in particular, they need to learn about the learner and to build an internal model of the learner as a basis of adaptive system behavior. Steps toward assistance in e-learning are systematically illustrated by means of the authors’ e-learning projects and systems eBuT and DaMiT. These steps are summarized in some process model proposed to the e-learning community.

The purpose of this article is the analysis of Information and Communication Technologies - ICT in legal education according to the reform of the Russian national education system. It is observed how the creation of digital education in Russia contributes to its integration into the global educational environment. The regulatory framework for analysing ICTs in legal education, e-learning and distance education is used as a starting point. A critical analysis methodology is used to model the possible implementation of problem-based learning using ICT and using the "contract builder" simulator as an example. It is concluded that the introduction of ICT in the educational process requires a systematic approach, a state policy for the development of this area, additional funding and training of teachers.

Despite its numerous advantages, globalization, information society and the emergence of information and communication technologies (ICT) have caused quick changes in society, provoking the rapid obsolescence of knowledge and the appearance of new concepts. In this context, new professional demands for teachers are required to help students develop necessary competences for the 21st century. At this juncture, ICT, e-learning tools, and MOOCs have arisen as remarkable training resources for teacher lifelong learning with an undeniable potential; however, it seems relevant to study whether teachers agree in the usefulness of such tools. In this light, this article investigates and compares the perceptions of Spanish pre-service and in-service EFL teachers about ICT, e-learning and MOOCs, and the uses of these technologies. The results obtained allow the researchers to analyze whether the possibilities of these resources correspond to the real necessities of EFL teachers.

A educação a distância contemporânea depende de tecnologias de informação e comunicação baseadas na internet. A partir delas, o educador conduz o processo de ensino-aprendizagem, promove a autonomia do aluno e estimula a colaboração entre cursistas. Assim, é interessante conhecer quais são as principais ferramentas usadas na educação a distância dentro e fora de ambientes virtuais de aprendizagem. Neste estudo de caso qualitativo, o objetivo foi identificar as ferramentas utilizadas, em cursos de formação continuada de professores, oferecidos por duas instituições brasileiras. O escopo teórico, ao realizar a pesquisa, foi conhecer as ferramentas usadas na atividade tutorial, em diferentes momentos de ensino-aprendizagem – interação, acompanhamento e avaliação. Para isso, as percepções de 88 tutores a distância foram obtidas por questionário on-line. O trabalho justifica-se pela necessidade contínua de fornecer ao leitor dados recentes sobre o emprego das tecnologias na educação a distância, o que possibilita reconhecer a evolução do uso delas. Diversas ferramentas, de dentro e fora do ambiente virtual, eram usadas pelos tutores em suas atividades. A interação entre tutor e cursista, tão importante nessa modalidade, em geral, ocorria por fórum ou mensagem. Para acompanhamento, notas e relatórios eram mais empregados. Já fórum e tarefas eram as principais tecnologias usadas na avaliação. Ao comparar os resultados obtidos com o de outros estudos, no âmbito da amostra pesquisada, notou-se uma evolução lenta no emprego das tecnologias baseadas na internet, talvez, pelos tutores priorizarem as ferramentas tradicionais existentes no ambiente virtual.Palavras-chave: Educação a Distância. Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação. Tutor.AbstractE-learning depends on information and communication technologies based on internet. The educator can use them to lead the teachinglearning process, promote student autonomy and encourage collaboration. So, knowing what the main e-learning tools are used in and out of virtual learning environments is interesting. In this qualitative case study, the aim was to identify the tools utilized in teacher’s training courses offered by two Brazilian institutions. The research theoretical scope was to know the tools used in the tutorial activity in different teaching-learning moments – interaction, monitoring and evaluation. Perceptions of 88 tutors were obtained by on-line questionnaire. This work is justified by the continuous need to provide recent data on the use of technologies in e-learning, which makes it possible to recognize the evolution in their use. Several internal and external virtual environment tools were used by tutors in their activities. The interaction between tutor and student, very important in e-learning, takes place through forum or message. Marks and reports were usually employed to student monitoring. The most common evaluation tools were forum and tasks. Comparing the work’s results with other studies, in the sample’s scope, there was little evolution in the use of internet-based technologies, perhaps by tutors prioritizing the traditional tools existing in the virtual environment.Keywords: E-learning.

The evolution of E-learning has been investigated in this article. In all historical epochs, education played an important role in a society. In the conditions of dynamic and ambitious socio-economic transformation of Ukrainian society education becomes the object of new growing requirements of the individual, society and state. These requirements are a major factor of the driving force behind the development of the education system. In this article we outlined new challenges to the qualification of the working force in information society and E-learning, among which are: the need for dynamic adaptation to rapidly changing knowledge and technologies, the acquisition of new skills. The last two decades have been marked by a significant increase in the emphasis on teaching on the basis of information and computer technology. A withdrawal from traditional training was based on the rapid development of the Internet and Covid-19 pandemic. The use of information and communication technologies in education makes it possible to increase its efficiency and accessibility. In addition, some aspects of the implementation of E-learning in the university have been reviwed. Many universities are actively developing a range of technologies, including mixed learning, with the aim of implementing E-learning at the university. Main features of E-learning, as a method for increasing motivation and self-study skills and as a way to improve an access to education, were investigated in the article. It is pointed out that in the structure of E-learning in educational establishments it is necessary to have such elements as: 1) E-learning system environment with the necessary means for communication of participants of E-learning; 2) electronic database of educational material; 3) virtual laboratory; 4) E-learning participants (teachers, students) and technicians (programmers, system administrators, web designers, animators). E-Learning supports self-directed types of learning. High motivation and self-study skills are prerequisites and must be complemented by an appropriately structured didactic learning environment. Self-organization and self-responsibility are important skills within flexible working and learning cultures. An important condition for E-learning: in the E- learning system can learn only highly motivated, focused and organized persons.

The development of the information society involves the use of new pedagogical technologies and appropriate teaching methods. In this regard, information and communication technologies (ICT) have become the most suitable tool that can help people with different learning requirements to exercise their right to education, employment, social life and leisure, as well as access to information. The use of new technologies in education should enhance independence, integration, and equal opportunities for all. Thus, the problem of effective use of digital technologies in the process of organizing the educational process of people with special educational needs is relevant. The aim of the work was to analyze the features of the use of electronic educational resources in an inclusive educational environment. To do this, we used the method of analysis of special pedagogical literature and national standards. The article highlights the need to use electronic educational resources adapted for people with special educational needs in higher education institutions. Based on the analysis of scientific works and national standards of Ukraine, the use of conceptual and terminological apparatus is specified, as well as the main qualities and provisions for the development of EER for people with special needs are identified. Attention is also drawn to the fact that electronic educational resources require compliance with additional requirements. Accordingly, there is a problem of developing quality EER that could meet the individual needs of all individuals. The authors also draw attention to the difficulties and their causes that arise during the organization of e-learning for participants in the educational process (teachers, students, parents). It is substantiated that distance learning technologies provide equal rights for education and future profession to persons with special educational needs, which is especially relevant during a pandemic. It is determined that the main effectiveness of the use of distance technologies for training people with SEN depends on the methods and models of distance learning, and analyzed its main stages. Significant success of distance education in an inclusive educational environment depends on the means and interaction of participants in the educational process. The practical experience of using the Moodle distance platform in the process of organizing e-learning for people with special educational needs is summarized.
