This article aims to analyse the problem of developing the readiness to use re- sources and services of the informational educational environment in work and study in students of pedagogical universities (future special educational needs (SEN) teachers). The urgency of creating technologies for practice-oriented train- ing of future SEN teachers (speech pathologists, teachers of individuals with hearing and visual impairments, teachers of children with mental retardation) is caused by the increasing requirements to the training of such specialists. The article presents results of an experimental study on the levels of information and communicative competence in first- and second-year students (N=114) of bachelor programmes in special education of children with disabilities. We used the following methods in our study: online questionnaires, pedagogical observation, practical tasks and tests within certain courses, and analysis of students’ works that were conducted using ICT (information and communication technologies). The criteria that we established for assessing the general user, pedagogical and subject components of ICT competence allowed us to determine its levels in bachelor students. The analysis of the data obtained in our study helped to identify the areas of concern and the necessary elements in the training of future special education teachers.

E Learning

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.

The purpose of the study is to determine the relationships between teachers' ICT acceptance levels, ICT attitudes and individual innovation levels and to investigate their opinions. Mixed method research study including qualitative and quantitative data collection and analysis techniques is used. In this study, an interview form was used to get the opinions of the teachers with the help of Teachers ICT Attitudes Scale (TICTAS) developed by Aydın and Semerci (2017), Teacher Candidates IT Acceptance Scale developed by Baydaş (2015) and Individual Innovation Scale adapted to Turkish by Kılıçer and Odabaşı (2010). 201 special education teachers (35.8% male and 64.2% female) participated in the study. In line with the findings obtained in the study, there is no difference in the attitudes of gender, age, professional seniority and branch variables towards special education teachers' information and communication technologies. Moreover, there is positive relationship was found between ICT attitudes and IT acceptance levels. In addition, teachers expressed their opinions on the fact that information and communication technologies extend the special education students' attention span. Therefore, it is thought that the relationships between teachers 'ICT attitudes, ICT acceptance levels, and innovation levels affect the attention and focus times of special education students and will have a greater impact on students' academic success. On the other hand, it is suggested to carry out more comprehensive studies such as this study to improve the ICT attitudes, ICT acceptance and innovation levels of special education teachers. In addition, it is thought that providing in-service courses that are structured and better equipped to improve the ICT attitudes, ICT acceptance levels and innovation levels of special education teachers will be more effective for the special education field.
