The article analyzes the problems of education that have worsened during the crisis associated with the pandemic. This is a large complex of problems that threaten not only the development, but also the existence of the education system in Russia. These are methodological problems: the lack of methods and the necessary material and technical base for the implementation of the distance format of mass education. The problems of forming the motivational potential of participants in the educational process, which is very relevant in the conditions of the beginning of the degradation of the education system under the pressure of its bureaucratization. This is a problem of increasing the volume of independent work of students and schoolchildren, which is not provided for by the methods of full-time education. The author draws on Nassim Taleb's concept of "the dictatorship of the small minority". Nassim Taleb claims that the theory of "the dictatorship of the small minority" is quite applicable to such a social institution as science. The minority dictatorship promotes the expanded accelerated digitalization of the education system. This entails stimulating the transformation of society, the transition from an individualized society to a dividualized society. Distance learning should be only a part of education and should be introduced very carefully at the last stages of higher education and in the system of additional education. This thesis is proved in this article. The author concludes that ignoring the problems discussed in the article can lead to a catastrophe of the education system in Russia.

The study involved 1-4 year students of full-time and part-time forms of study of the Faculty of Psychology of Tula State Pedagogical University named after L.N. Tolstoy in the amount of 289 people. The main advantages of the distance learning student are the availability of educational materials and information in the individual trajectory of passing the disciplines at any time, convenience in organizing independent work, the ability to plan their own time. The main difficulties identified by students are associated with high workload, insufficient time allotted for interaction with teachers, lack of technical capabilities for implementing the distance learning process at home.

Автор освещает возникшие при пандемии проблемы дистанционного формата образования, в том числе с точки зрения социализации, а также базовые причины инертности методологии системы общего образования России. Для сравнения приведен пример опыта функционирования систем образования стран Запада и США. Изменить подход к управлению педагогическим коллективом и педагогическим процессом могут помочь принципы методологии Agile. Данная методология актуализируется при дистанционном формате обучения, так как требует самостоятельной работы обучающихся и как следствие вовлекает их в образовательный процесс. The article highlights the problematic issues of the distance education that arose during the pandemic, including those of socialization, as well as the main reasons for the inertia of the methodology in the general education system in Russia. To comparison, an example of the Western countries and the United States educational systems way of functioning is given. To change the management of the teaching staff and the pedagogical process itself, the author proposes the principles of Agile methodology. Agile methodology becomes relevant in the distance learning due to the requirements for students independent work and, therefore, their involvement in the educational process.

And this was determined by many factors, one of which was the lack of experience of teachers in using digital platforms and services in the educational process. This article discusses the possibilities of using the most common Internet services for distance education. Their use in various types of classes is analyzed. A comparative assessment of the technical characteristics of various Internet platforms used in distance education is given.

The main direction of improving the process of professional development of doctors at the stage of postgraduate training is the gradual introduction of modern forms of education. Internship is the first step to independent work of a doctor, so it is important from this stage to direct the efforts of a young specialist to self-improvement. Traditional methods of training interns are primarily aimed at obtaining and deepening knowledge through the transfer of information with subsequent implementation in specific professional activities with recognized algorithms. However, this method of teaching does not contribute to the development of independent cognitive activity of young colleagues, although it is on this postulate the concept of distance learning is based as a new form of postgraduate education. The article characterizes the modern system of training of interns-ophthalmologists. The use of distance learning, clinical analysis of patients’ data, stage test control, situational tasks in the educational process is substantiated. Wishes are expressed to improve the organization of the internship in ophthalmology.
