The aim of the study was a hygienic assessment of the use of distance learning technologies (DOT) by students of a medical university during the COVID-19 pandemic. Questionnaires were developed containing questions on the level of awareness of students about the risk factors associated with conducting distance learning (DL), the organization of the pedagogical process during the period of DL and the subjective assessment of DL. The research was conducted in December 2020. It was attended by 508 students of FGAOU VO RNIMU them. N.I. Pirogov and FSBEI HE SSMU (Arkhangelsk). Statistical data processing was carried out using Statistica 13.0. The statistical significance of differences in qualitative data was assessed using the Pearson chi-square test. The critical level of significance was taken at p ≤ 0.05. The results indicate that 80% of respondents gave a positive subjective assessment of the effectiveness of the implementation of DOT during the COVID-19 pandemic. As an objective criterion for the assimilation of the material in the implementation of DOT, a study of the dynamics of the respondents' progress was carried out. We did not find statistically significant differences in the dynamics of students' progress before, during and after the transition to preschool education. Thus, despite the high readiness of students of a medical university to use the elements of DOT in the educational process, it is necessary to improve the forms of teaching, the introduction of active forms, the improvement of the skills of the teaching staff and the formation of the students' competencies related to health preservation, which they can implement both in full-time, and with DO.

Introduction. Distance learning is a forced and extreme condition due to the spread of COVID-19. The higher school is looking for ways to improve the process of education for young people and opens up new opportunities for the transition to distance learning through the introduction of innovative technologies. The purpose of the study is to find out the pros and cons of distance learning, using the analysis of data obtained through a sociological survey of students. Materials and methods. The material of the research was the answers of 122 students of the Stupino branch of the Moscow Aviation Institute (National Research University) from 1 to 3 courses of the full-time department by filling in Google forms. Results. 42.6% of teaching students positively assessed the importance of switching to the remote platform of the LMS MAI, although only a third of the respondents would like to study remotely next semester. Motivation and involvement in the learning process in the new environment is present in 44.3% of respondents, and 63.9 % of students believe that learning a foreign language at a distance makes it difficult to understand new material. In addition, 73.3% of respondents believe that humanities are easier to study remotely, as opposed to technical subjects. In the organization of the educational process through distance learning, 45.1% of the surveyed students discovered new opportunities to continue learning the language. It should be noted that a third of respondents (32.8%) believe that in the near future, higher education can be fully transferred to distance learning. The method of principal components revealed that the attitude of students to distance learning is not related to the motivation to learn. Conclusion. The drastic reformatting of the educational process with limited internal and external resources of the universities intensified their mobilization in an emergency implementation of distance learning technologies, but not in the systematic use of tools online training, require a much longer preparation time and testing on the students in order to develop a competitive and developing educational system, and natural is not always an orderly and systematic approach.

In modern educational system reform in Russia, there is a deepening contradiction between the required and real level of professional competence of teachers. One way to overcome this contradiction is the systematic professional development of the teaching staff implemented with the help of distance learning technologies (DLT). One of the means to ensure high quality of training is course evaluation by trainees. It allows for motivation and a high level of training, to understand the directions of the course modification. At the same time, teachers themselves are professional experts in training, and their assessment of the e-course may be more objective than that of the trainees of other professions. Additional vocational education is primarily characterized by a high degree of applied orientation to modern learning technologies. Such are the realities that changes, especially in digital technology in education, are changing rapidly. And it is so fast that, in fact, one person cannot be aware of the full range of directions in which they (the changes) are taking place. This problem can be solved using the DLT through systematic modification of the e-course. The object of the study in this paper is the process of teachers’ training in the system of professional development of pedagogical staff using distance learning technologies. The subject of the study: the mechanism of optimization of elearning distance learning courses used in the system of professional development of pedagogical staff. Research purpose: to identify mechanisms to optimize the effectiveness of e-courses to increase trainees’ motivation, correlation of theory content with practice with the help of trainees themselves under conditions of synergetic approach [1]. Research objectives: a) to identify parameters for improving the effectiveness of e-courses; b) to develop a toolkit for improving the effectiveness of e-courses; c) to develop recommendations for improving the effectiveness of e-courses. The method used in the study is the analysis of pedagogical literature, Google-form-based questionnaire, synthesis, and generalization. The novelty of the study is related to the creation of conditions for modifying e-courses for teachers’ professional development through the examination of the course by the teachers themselves. This article is written within the framework of the Russian Foundation for Basic Research project 19-29-14176 “Building a Fundamental Model of Digital Transformation of the General Education System Using a Digital Platform for Results-Based Education”.

Distance learning (DL) is a completely new and unique form of education, which got forced to switch to by the current pandemic of coronavirus disease. Note that until now, distance learning technologies have been used at the department of general and clinical pathological physiology and some other departments of the Odessa National Medical University (ONMedU). The aim of this analytical article is to analyze the efficacy of ONMedU General and Clinical Pathological Physiology Department staff during the one and a half year period of the coronavirus infection pandemic with an accent to psychological approach to students modified teaching. The urgent need of time and the primary desire to protect students and their own lives during 2020-2021 requires us to improve our own pedagogical approaches in the further on-line teaching of students. We see success in systematic methodological work with students, the implementation of which will make it possible to evoke and increase their motivation to study histology. The importance of this methodological technique, supported in the senior years of medical universities by the integration of teaching theoretical and clinical disciplines, the approximation of teaching to specific clinical cases will help optimize the assimilation of morphological knowledge by students at least and, undoubtedly, in the near future will lead to a better assimilation of clinical disciplines. In connection with the ideas of individualized and developmental learning, the use of psychological capabilities of learning tools in the virtual environment brings both pedagogy and psychology to a new level of understanding the mediation of mental, creative, communicative and executive learning and learning activities. The use of distance learning helps the students to acquire skills of independent work, creates comfortable conditions for creativity, increases the creative and intellectual potential of the student through self-organization, the ability to interact with computer technology and make responsible decisions, creates favorable conditions for individual creative expression in the process of learning, for the development of the student's personality. The authors are convinced that the optimization and improvement of the educational process in medical universities is to draw students' attention to the problems that the medical community is dealing with on a daily basis today.
