The originality of digital economy is in its optimising effect on production and consumption possible because of operativeness and consolidation of information and computing systems. There has appeared an opportunity to manage socio-economic processes systematically. The necessity of structural changes in HR-market is proved. Moreover, high schools should head the process of overcoming the expected structural unemployment caused by new technologies appearing, i.e. they provide high-quality education of specialised competencies necessary for workers, in particular. Universities must not wait for the government to work out and present new standards and recommendations. On the contrary, high schools ought to independently and urgently initiate the organisation of competitive experts training and to form innovative methods of education of new specialists by cooperating with business sphere and taking examples of digital leaders.

The article highlights the practice of using digital technologies in the educational process during the virus pandemic. The use of digital technologies in education is dictated by modernity and supported at the state level. Digitalization during the virus pandemic is a new social situation of "digital divide", "digital citizenship", "digital socialization". The most important changes in education during the pandemic are related to the transition to full digitalization of education. In this process, I fundamentally change the technology, structure of training and organization of the educational process. The use of new information and communication technologies is an initial condition for the further development of digital pedagogy. Organizationally, the active transition to digital education technologies is based on new educational standards, using a new competence approach. Universities began to effectively use a two-component information and educational environment, which combines the resources of international educational platforms with the content of their own developments, which contributes to the development of their own information technologies. Introduction of a modern digital educational base of the educational process-information and educational environment (IOS). The introduction of digital educational technologies in the higher education system will make changes in the qualification requirements for the teaching staff. Teachers began to use digital technologies to ensure their work. Changes in education related to the pandemic have led to profound changes in the labour market. This is a reason for further reorganization of the educational process. Electronic library systems of all universities of the world, as well as teaching materials of teachers, have become available to all students. Such actions have led to a serious restructuring of the educational process, changing the role of the teacher, who in the future will not explain this or that material, but will help to find the location of this material and understand it.

Relevance. Faced with globalization challenges, large modern cities need to develop their competitive advantages. One source of such advantages is clustering of urban economy. Questions dealing with cluster-based policies and classification of clusters operating on the regional and national levels have attracted much scholarly attention while there is still a research gap regarding urban cluster policies and comparison of city-based clusters. Research objective. The purpose of this study is to analyze the legal framework of cluster policies in Russia and Kazakhstan and to describe the criteria for classification and comparison of city-based clusters. Data and methods. The study used methods of systemic and comparative analysis, formalized methods of analysis of regulatory acts. The selected criteria are universal and can be used for cluster analysis in different countries. We considered strategies for socio-economic development of large cities in Russia and Kazakhstan from the official websites of city administrations as well as the regulatory acts of specific cities. Results. In both countries, clusters play a significant role in the development strategies of territories. The Russian and Kazakh governments take similar measures to support cluster initiatives. The regulatory legal acts of both countries emphasize the allocation of subsidies and co-financing of regional programs and R&D in clusters. The process of cluster creation in Russia started later than in Kazakhstan but was also more intensive. A popular specialization for clusters in both countries is information technologies and communications, which corresponds to the goals set by the national governments. Conclusions. In both countries, the number of clusters in large cities is increasing annually. Typically, clusters have 11-50 participants. In both countries, there are clusters of different specialization. Strategies for socio-economic development serve as the main documents for devising cluster policies of cities. The practical significance of the study is that it proposes an approach to classification and comparison of clusters that can be used in further analysis and for identification of cluster policy priorities.

The problem of the teacher’s personal centration is extremely relevant nowadays due to the challenges that arise in the society and the educational environment under the influence of civilizational changes in the world. The negative contradictions of the post-Soviet society (the society was marked by strongly developed collectivist consciousness), the powerful ultra-fast development of information technologies, and other factors in the educational environment require adequate responses from participants of the pedagogical interaction. New conditions encourage the intensification of facilitation teaching, which is currently developing in the world and in Ukraine as the most appropriate to the humanistic ideas of pedagogical science, directing all the attention to the personality of a learner. Therefore, formation of a person, ready to express his or her opinion freely, to be individual, to take responsibility for himself/herself and to declare himself - that is the task of a personally centered teacher in the modern conditions.
