This article is substantiating the relevance of the development of educational tourism caused by the trends of globalization and internationalization of education. The analysis of scientific works on the research of educational tourism is presented. It is noted that despite the relatively long history of the existence of some forms of educational tourism, taking into account the views of scientists that innovation in education is not always a completely new phenomenon, educational tourism can be considered a pedagogical innovation. According to the authors, the existing conviction of scientists about the close relationship of pedagogical innovations with information technologies enhances the innovativeness of virtual educational tourism. The periodization of educational tourism from antiquity to the present day is presented. The significant impact of travels for knowledge and academic exchanges on the modern infrastructure of the tourism industry is noted. Indicating the role of educational tourism for the development of international cooperation in education, the authors analyze the dynamics of external and internal academic mobility in the period from 2015 to 2019 years at the Kostanay State Pedagogical University, which now is Kostanay Regional University named after A. Baitursynov. The innovative nature of modern educational tourism, which is enhanced by the use of information and communication technologies and digital resources, along with traditional forms of tourist and educational activities, is emphasized. A virtual excursion is considered as one of the innovative forms of education. The experience of the participation of students of pedagogical specialties in the development and implementation of digital resources in secondary schools in a virtual environment, contributing to the formation of the readiness of future teachers for productive activities in the context of distance education, is presented.

Methodological Aspects

O acesso das crianças brasileiras às TIC tem sido ampliado, porém ainda temos poucos estudos analisando seus possíveis impactos na fase de alfabetização. Objetivo: conhecer o uso doméstico e escolar dos dispositivos televisuais de crianças de duas escolas públicas. Aspectos metodológicos: pesquisa-ação, cuja coleta de dados foi realizada por meio de entrevistas com grupos de professores e de famílias, além de observações participativas no laboratório de informática em duas turmas do terceiro ano do Ensino Fundamental I. Resultados: no ambiente doméstico, a maior parte das crianças tinha o hábito de assistir a novelas e jogar no tablet ou no celular. As famílias acreditam que esses dispositivos atrapalham a dedicação dos filhos aos estudos, associando-os a maior irritabilidade, teimosia, baixa tolerância à frustração e falta de persistência. Tais características podem estar relacionadas aos jogos violentos e ao hábito de “zapear”. Contudo, é preciso destacar que a escola também tem assumido pressupostos do que chamamos “pedagogia zap”, propondo atividades nos livros didáticos ou no computador que favorecem o “zapear” de um tema a outro, comprometendo a aprendizagem. Concluímos que a escola deve orientar os pais e as crianças para um melhor uso dos dispositivos televisuais. Além disso, precisa promover ações voltadas à alfabetização que estimulem a capacidade de atenção, a memória e a persistência, utilizando também os recursos digitais com esses propósitos.Palavras-chave: Alfabetização.

Hommo zappiens. The homo zappiens and the use of televisual devices: potential impacts in the process of basic literacy buildingThe access of Brazilian children to ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) has increased, however, there is still very few studies which analyze their possible impact in the basic literacy phase. Objective: to understand the domestic and scholar use of televisual devices of children from two public schools. Methodological aspects: action-research, whose data collection was performed through interviews with teacher and family groups, apart from participative observations in the information technology laboratory in two Elementary School I third year classes. Results: in the domestic environment, most children had the habit of watching soap operas and playing with and on the tablet of mobile phone. The families believed that this type of device jeopardize children’s dedication to studies, associating them to irritability, stubbornness, low tolerance to frustration and lack of persistence. Such characteristics may be related to violent games and to the habit of “zapping”. However, it must be highlighted that the school has also made assumptions of what we call “zap pedagogy”, promoting activities in the pedagogical books or in the computer which favor zapping from one theme from another, jeopardizing the learning process. It may be concluded that the school should orient parents and children towards better use of televisual devices. In addition, it is necessary to promote actions aiming basic literacy that stimulate attention capability, memory and persistence, also using digital resources for this purpose.Keywords: Basic literacy.

Introduction. The development of the information and communication technologies (ICT) market creates the conditions for further growth of other sectors of the economy. ICT companies provide companies, individuals and government with software, Internet, mobile and fixed communications, and so on. The purpose of the article is to study the current state of the ICT market in the world and in Ukraine, to identify major trends and threats for further development of the ICT market. Results. The ICT market is one of the largest dynamically developing markets in the world. Research conducted by leading consulting companies in the world shows that after 2020, the market can grow from 13 to 33 trillion and the blockchain market to 3.1 trillion $. International Data Corporation emphasizes that digital technologies and solutions can reach 60% of global GDP by the end of 2022. The world leader in the number of ICT corporations is the United States, with headquarters of the 65 world's largest companies, 20 in China, Taiwan - 17, Japan - 14, South Korea - 6, India - 5 companies. The IT services market accounts for 0,5% of the global IT services market. In Ukraine there are 125 registered self-employed individuals that are used by large companies to optimize their tax burden. Income of such American ICT companies such as Apple, Amazon, Alphabet, Microsoft significantly exceeds the size of the state budget of Ukraine, and part of the revenues from the ICT market occupies only 4,5% of GDP, which is clearly insufficient and is evidence of an economic development lag. Conclusions. The imperfection of domestic legislation, the lack of incentives for ICT organizations, the possibility to monopolize the market, the insecurity of the interests of individuals and private companies do not stimulate foreign investments in this sector of the economy. In spite of this, Ukraine has a great potential for its growth, for which it is necessary to develop a national concept and model for the development of the ICT market, to restrain the departure of specialists abroad, to ensure the implementation of the business-state partnership strategy, etc. Keywords: telecommunications market, IT market, telecommunications market and IT services, marketing research, investments, ICT companies.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to report on the innovative employment of students as technology mentors as part of a Blended Learning Program (BLP) that supported a group of owner-managers of small businesses to adopt appropriate information and communication technologies (ICT) to enhance their work practices. Design/methodology/approach – This discussion uses various evaluations undertaken throughout the project to examine why the technology mentor role is vital in supporting small businesses to develop digital literacies. The participants’ self-reporting of their ICT skills as well as their progress in using ICT was also assessed by technology mentors in the course of the program and reported in mentor reflections. Academic staff also evaluated the performances of technology mentors in relation to each business. Findings – Participants in the BLP pilot program singled out the technology mentors as being essential in promoting their uptake of ICT and in their ability to use specific technologies at work. Research limitations/implications – Findings are based on a pilot program involving six learners and two technology mentors. While this is a statistically insignificant number of evaluations, both the findings and the model of the BLP remain of interest. This model has the capacity to address a long-standing and global challenge to support small businesses in the use of ICT. A scaled up version of the program is required to validate the findings. Practical implications – In the final evaluation, participants all self-assessed as having increased ICT knowledge and skills. They provided specific examples of how they now use ICT. The BLP could be taken up by local and state governments who periodically attempt to support small businesses in the uptake of technologies. The BLP could also be applied to vocational education students in business, information technologies or information systems. As well as supporting small businesses to adopt ICT, this model also provides an important alternative to resource-intensive work-placement programs that are designed to develop students’ employability skills through work-integrated learning. Originality/value – Less effective attempts to support small businesses often involve face-to-face training for unrealistic periods of time that foreground technology rather than real world, useful and relevant outcomes (IBSA, 2013). This BLP successfully supported owner operators of small businesses to identify, apply and evaluate a range of software applications (“apps”) and online programs to enhance their work practices.

The present article considers the results of implementing the distance learning technologies at Vinnytsia National Pirogov Memorial Medical University in the process of mastering the discipline "Internal Medicine". Today, the amount of information that is so necessary for obtaining, understanding and mastering knowledge is growing rapidly. Given the current pace of development of education, today it is quite important to find innovative forms of quality organization of the educational process. This led to the introduction of information technology in education and the formation of a separate type of learning - distance learning. Now in Ukraine, distance learning is widely developing at all levels of education, this makes it possible to individualize the process of acquiring knowledge, abilities, skills and methods of human cognitive activity, which occurs mainly through the indirect interaction of participants in the educational process distant from each other in a specialized environment, functioning based on modern information and communication technologies.
