In the educational process, it is not the information technology itself that is important, but the extent to which its use serves to achieve the actual educational goals. The choice of means of communication should be determined by content, not technology. This means that the choice of technologies should be based on the study of the content of training courses, the degree of necessary activity of trainees, their involvement in the learning process, specific goals and expected learning outcomes. The result of training depends not on the type of communication and information technologies, but on the quality of the development and provision of courses.

II Международный конгресс ЮНЕСКО «Образование и информатика» (1996) и «Окинавская хартия Глобального информационного общества» (2000) объявили информационные технологии стратегическим ресурсом в образовании. Революционные воздействия этих документов напрямую относились к жизни людей, их образованию и работе. И вот сейчас в 2021 году актуализировалась потребность использования информационных технологий в образовании для содействия и помощи студентам шире использовать свой потенциал и реализовывать свои устремления в эпоху пандемии COVID-19. В связи с этим для укрепления студенческого потенциала необходимо уделять особое внимание высшему образованию и одновременно расширять возможность пожизненного обучения с упором на развитие навыков использования информационных технологий через систему дистанционных образовательных технологий. Информационные технологии обучения – это совокупность электронных средств компьютера, компьютерных сетей, компьютерных телекоммуникаций, других средств связи и способов их функционирования, используемых для реализации образовательного процесса. Все эти средства должны эффективно работать не только для непосредственной информатизации учебного процесса, но и для информатизации всего комплекса процессов, характерных для системы высшего образования. Помимо расширения традиционной технической помощи для эффективного функционирования дистанционного обучения, необходимо содействовать подготовке специалистов в сфере информационных технологий и разрабатывать инновационные подходы. В статье анализируются проблема применения дистанционных образовательных технологий в системе высшего образования России. Авторы рассматривают информатизацию высшего образования с его достоинствами и недостатками с учетом собственного опыта преподавания, а также ставят вопрос о необходимости развития дистанционного обучения, повышения его эффективности и дальнейших перспективах.
