Problems related to the adoption of ICT in the educational system stem from the need to adapt to the use of new technologies in the internal processes of institutions and in teaching and learning processes, common to different profiles of educational institutions including of engineering courses with them specificities. To meet the objective, a review of the existing bibliography in the Scopus database was carried out to highlight articles relevant to the topic. Based on the review, 31 articles identified the main factors and effects that influence and impact the process of implementation and continued use of ICTs. The survey generated a broader view of the challenges faced in different dimensions, from SWOT framework, involving different stakeholders. It is suggested in future studies to engineering analyze deeper the complex scenario that involves the theme.

The author of the article outlines that the problem of teaching methods is one of the most important in pedagogical science and practice of school teaching, since teaching methods are the main tools with which a tutor teaches the basics of science to students, develops their cognitive abilities, ensures personal development and forms a scientific worldview. The article formulates the role of information and communication technologies (ICT) in the educational process. The pedagogical experiment of using ICT in teaching economics to primary school children is described. The purpose of the research is to form economic knowledge in primary school children using information and communication technologies. Method of research. The following methods were used in the study: comparison, analysis, observation and experiment. The experiment was conducted among 24 schoolchildren who were divided into a control and experimental group. A variety of ICTs were used: an interactive whiteboard, reference and multimedia Internet resources, social networks, various messengers, presentations made in the Microsoft Power Point program, as well as using the Prezi service. Research result. In the control group, the average level of economic knowledge increased by more than 40%.

The use of online technology of an experimental, gaming, competitive nature helps unite the virtual context and the acquisition of analytical skills in an environment, where personal communication is impossible, and the learning process requires high-quality preparation and understanding of the level of acquisition of speech skills. Studies show that within the conditions of distance learning of language and literature teachers (philologists), special difficulties are caused by the study of new technologies related to speech practice, stylistics, text creation; the reason for this is the insufficient number of group and heuristic activities, work in pairs, lack of sufficient speech practice of high communicative and intellectual level. Online quizzes as a technology of competition, games aims to increase the register, level and intensity of communication; they can potentially overcome the lack of authentic communication and academic traditions in the training of philologists. The purpose of this study is to show the prospects for the use of modern information and computer technologies. Intensive informatization of the educational process has its own organizational specifics: the willingness and availability of technical capabilities not only for students - philologists, but also for the teaching staff of universities and administrations. The condition for successful informatization is the ability of teachers to effectively use all available potential. The study focuses on the use and scope, difficulties in implementing information and communication technologies, and separate competitive interactive forms in higher education of language and literature teachers in terms of distance education.
