Introduction. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, distance learning has become the main way to get education in higher education institutions in the Russian Federation. In the new conditions of academic activity, it is necessary to review approaches to the organization of training, existing methods and technologies for teaching Russian as a foreign language (RKI). Materials and methods. The purpose of the research is to show the advantages and disadvantages of the process of teaching Russian as a foreign language in a remote format from the point of view of foreign students and teachers of Russian as a foreign language. To achieve this goal, the authors use the following methods: the questionnaire method, the method of comparative analysis and systematization, and the content analysis method. The survey included 138 foreign students of the pre-University program from 29 countries and 52 teachers of Russian as a foreign language from Peter the Great Saint Petersburg Polytechnic University (SPbPU). Results. The survey made it possible to identify the advantages and disadvantages of distance learning in the organizational aspect, in the psychological aspect (for students and teachers), in the methodological aspect for teachers and in the educational (educational) aspect for students. The advantages of distance learning include, first of all, saving time on the road (93% of students) and the availability of electronic educational resources (89% of students and 100 % of teachers), etc. The main disadvantages are: complete dependence on technology and the quality of the Internet (100% of students and teachers); lack of practical communication in Russian (96% of students); an increase in the share of independent work in the educational process (91% of students); a significant increase in the amount of time spent preparing for classes (100% of teachers); the negative impact of distance learning on health (100%), etc. Discussion and conclusion. The results of the survey allow us to determine the trajectory of further methodological research in the development of new learning technologies. In modern conditions, online learning is becoming an integral part of the educational process, in which the technological learning environment should contribute to the formation of an innovative model of academic activity of foreign students in language training for higher education in the Russian Federation.

In the context of the digital economy and the globalization of the social sphere, the introduction of distance learning technologies in the educational process, as well as the legal regulation of distance education and assessing its quality are the most relevant. Mass quarantine restrictions associated with the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, on the one hand, challenged existing distance learning systems, on the other hand, created a serious impetus for its further development. The first goal of the study is to analyze the regulatory legal acts regulating distance education in the Russian Federation with a view to establishing its place and role in the educational process. The second goal of the study is to assess the quality of distance education in modern conditions. To achieve these goals, regulatory legal acts were analyzed, an assessment of distance education in the Russian Federation at the present stage was given, a system of indicators for assessing the quality of higher education was developed. To conduct the study, methods such as the deduction method, methods for calculating relative values and a graphical analysis method were used. Based on the study of normative legal acts, it was concluded that distance learning is an educational technology and, accordingly, can be used as a means of organizing the educational process in the implementation of the educational program for any form of training, including full-time, in accordance with local educational normative acts organization. At the same time, modern services for the implementation of distance learning have wide functional capabilities, which, if used correctly, allows achieving the proper level of quality.

The article deals with the use of foreign language distance learning for first-year foreign students of economic specialties. The implementation of distance learning is one of the ways to modernize the education in Ukraine in the context of globalization and the intensive development of information technologies. Distance technologies are now widely used in many fields of education, especially when teaching a foreign language to inophones. Creating an effective learning system, based on information technology, is an urgent task at all levels of education. One of the systems focused on the professional development of future specialists is the system of teaching students a foreign language using information technology. The possibilities of organizing the educational process are not limited to traditional and distance learning. There is a significant educational sector in which distance learning cannot be fully applied, but individual elements of e-learning can be used (in particular, distance learning technologies). It is referred to full-time and part-time (1-2 courses) forms of higher education. The mixed learning has become a special role as a more perfect model of the educational process organization, which takes the advantage of distance learning and compensates for these disadvantages. To improve the organization of the educational process for the language training of foreign students, we consider appropriate to use the materials of distance courses in the models of mixed learning. The options for integrating distance learning into the traditional system of language training for foreigners in the mixed learning models have been analyzed. When integrating the model into a traditional educational process at this stage of foreigners' training, it is suggested to use the distance course developed by us with the prevailing classroom component, because the degree of students' independent work in learning the teaching material of the discipline in the first year is not high. The structure and content of the distance course «Foreign Language» (educational-professional sphere of communication connection), designed on the Moodle platform, are considered in the article. The importance of using distance technologies in the process of organizing language training for foreign students is noted. It contributes to the formation of professional competence of future specialists in the field of economics.

From students prospective the main advantages were the opportunity to study and work at the same time (32.4 %) to plan more flexible study schedule (29.7 %). Existence of such negative situation as wish to cheat while performing tests and tasks in MOODLE. Difficulties for lecturers to control stand-alone basis tests and tasks performance by students. The main problem was the independent study of lectures and practical tasks by students without teachers’ support. To improve the effectiveness of training asynchronous Moodle or Google Classroom platforms and learning sessions in Zoom, Meet, Skype, etc should be combined. This approach allows visualizing educational material with presentations and simplifying training materials by students, as well as expanding opportunities for students with special educational needs to obtain professions in management and administration.

Introduction. The modern development of information and communication technologiesand the current epidemiological situation have led to the widespread use of distance educational technologies. The article presents the results of a statistical analysis of the data obtained during the hygienic assessment of the characteristics of the lifestyle and activity of students in the period of active introduction of forms and methods of distance education.Material and methods. An online survey of 498 students in 2019 during the period of traditional education and 1587 students in April 2020 during the implementation of the educational process in the distance format was conducted. The coordinator of the work was the Department of Hygiene of the Pediatric Faculty of the N.I. Pirogov Russian National Research Medical University, Moscow.Results. The obtained data allows talking about the negative impact of electronic devices on the lifestyle of students. A significant increase in the time of the use of gadgets (almost twice) and their number (2-4) when transferring the educational process to a remote format is proved. In general, the use of stationary and mobile electronic devices in more than 50% of respondents amounted to five hours or more. A decrease in the quality characteristics of the lifestyle of students in higher education during the transition to distant education has been established, while more than a third of them do not realize this. As risk factors, a decrease in motor activity, visual impairment, neuropsychic stress, poor nutrition, etc. In the absence of direct contact with university teachers, the opportunities for creating healthy lifestyle skills within the university are reduced and the importance of teachers as an authoritarian influence and a personal example for students is reduced.Conclusion. Informatization and the introduction of distance learning technologies in the higher education system require comprehensive studies of the advantages and disadvantages of such a learning format. The forced mass introduction of distance learning technologies in the educational process has exposed many problems that have not yet been given sufficient attention and, in the future, they can become the basis for promising research in the field of educational hygiene. The results obtained suggest that modern students do not pay enough attention to their lifestyle in the period of the distant education.
