Данная статья посвящена исследованию систем дистанционного обучения в вузах Чувашской Республики, определению основных функций систем управления дистанционным обучением. Проведен анализ систем дистанционного взаимодействия со студентами в федеральных вузах Чувашской Республики. С целью формирования требований к функциям современной единой универсальной платформы дистанционного взаимодействия в университете проведен анализ корпоративной платформы, объединяющей в рабочем пространстве чат, встречи, заметки и вложения MS Teams, позволяющей организовывать дистанционное обучение. На примере веб-ресурсов для поддержки организации дистанционного обучения государственных университетов Чувашской Республики, таких как система управления курсами, использующая лицензию GNU GPL Moodle, системы видеоконференций Big Blue Button, рассматриваются их функциональные возможности и недостатки, выявляются ключевые особенности построения единого информационного пространства вуза на основе идеи использования инструментов образовательных платформ в обеспечении электронной поддержки дистанционного обучения. Представлены преимущества интеграции систем LMS Moodle и MS Teams для построения интерактивного формата обучения на примере построения единой образовательной среды в ЧГПУ им. И. Я. Яковлева. Рассмотрено внедрение единой учетной записи для организации принципа единой точки доступа к информационным системам дистанционного обучения для построения единой электронной образовательной среды университета на базе технологии OpenID Connect. This article is devoted to the study of distance learning systems in universities of the Chuvash Republic, the definition of the main functions of distance learning systems. It presents the analysis of systems of distance learning interaction with students in federal universities of the Chuvash Republic. In order to form the requirements for the functions of a modern unified universal platform for distance learning interaction at the university, the authors analysed the corporate platform that combines chat, meetings, notes and attachments of MS Teams in the workspace. Using the example of web resources to support the organization of distance learning of state universities of the Chuvash Republic, such as the course management system using the GNU GPL Moodle license, the Big Blue Button video conferencing systems, their functionality and shortcomings are considered, the key features of building a unified information space of the university based on the idea of using the tools of educational platforms in providing electronic support for distance learning are identified. The advantages of integrating the LMS Moodle and MS Teams systems for building an interactive learning format are presented on the example of building a unified educational environment at I. Yakovlev CHSPU. The introduction of a single account for the organization of a single point of access to information systems of distance learning for the construction of a single electronic educational environment of the university based on OpenID Connect technology is considered.

Open and distance learning systems (ODLS) brought about immeasurable advancement in the delivery of education. Albeit all the benefits ODLS offers, there are some issues that need to be addressed. One of the most prevalent issues is the problem of persistent academic dishonesty. Much research effort has been devoted to explain why students commit acts of dishonesty, but there is limited research done on why faculty members do not take on a stronger position against it. This chapter offers cases of ODLS misconducts at an American University, the process that faculty members took to document academic dishonesty, the appeals process used by students, and the consequences of dishonesty. This chapter provides insights from faculty faced with dishonesty. It also addresses what administrators should do to support their faculty in curbing dishonesty in their institutions.

The expansion of computer networks has at the same time given impetus to the distance learning environments. E-learning systems are also advanced and more efficient. However, these platforms offer such complex teaching functionalities that designers find themselves poorly equipped to succeed in their engineering processes. This article presents a tool that makes it easier for designers to produce educational content according to the Competency-Based Approach (CBA). We propose an implementation of the CBA after its modeling via ontology. Our module can be grafted to any author system oriented pedagogy based skills. We have advocated for Service for Oriented Architecture as a software solution to model our business process that consists of a set of interconnected services that are modeled and implemented. The proposed system is the result of a coordina-tion of, services, incorporating the order of competences explained by a distance education, which integrates and interacts according to an orchestration plan.
