Topicality of this work is associated with the lack of practical interaction of the studied disciplines of higher mathematics and computer science. The authors argue that in order to increase interest, it is necessary to actively use information technologies right inside the classes in higher mathematics. At the same time, the authors believe that a student must understand the theory of certain types of calculations, must be able to perform them manually and only then, must apply automated calculation methods. Examples of the implementation of game theory in the mathematical application Mathcad are given, while students themselves develop the programme according to the proposed algorithm, which undoubtedly develops logical thinking and shows students the visual use of interdisciplinary connections between two subjects studied – mathematics and computer science. The text contains examples of author's texts of mathematical problems aimed at training students of a military higher education institution. According to the authors, when studying the topic under consideration, it is possible to form the competences necessary for a modern specialist.

Electronic Web-based campus information systems and e-learning educational delivery became increasingly important for higher education practice in the late 20th and early 21st century (Bates, 2000; Cobarsí, 2005). These emergent information technologies brought about changes in the traditional face-to-face campus and paper-based communication and teaching (Brown & Duguid, 2000). There are several trends in the introduction of information technology in universities that can be summarised into three main types (Duderstadt, 2000; Folkers, 2005). Firstly, most universities gradually adopted electronic campus information systems and e-learning to reinforce functionalities offered by their physical campus, with no intention of substituting the traditional campus but simply to strengthen their capabilities. Secondly, other institutions, the so-called first generation distance universities, had no physical campus from the very beginning, such as the institutions founded in the 1970s: the British Open University http://www3.open.ac.uk or Spain’s Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia http://www.uned. es/portal/index.htm. Thus, they incorporated electronic media to complement their usual means of communication by post or periodical face-to-face tuition. Thirdly, the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (Open University of Catalonia, hereinafter the OUC) is a quite different case: it was created from the very beginning (the academic year 1995-1996) as a wholly e-learning and Internet-based higher education institution, where a virtual campus with wide-ranging functionalities supports most of the day-to-day activities. As a result of these original premises, this university has some important organizational and information system features, which are summarised and discussed in the sections below, from the chronological perspective offered by its having been in operation for 10 years.

Digital Ecosystem

The purpose of this research in educational environment is to improve the quality of the educational process with the help of new information technologies. The paper examines practical issues of digital ecosystems implementation in education on the basis of relational databases, as, from the authors’ point of view, in the organization data are less subject to change in time than business processes. Therefore the strategy of information systems development where the database functions as a cornerstone provides the result, that is more stable than, for example, a functional approach in software development. Within the frames of this research information technologies of quality control in education are being created. They are intended for the exact and full representation of teaching materials as a system used as a source of information for the assessment of learning and teaching materials and creation of electronic resources on this platform. The structure of the created database, operation practices and topical issues of its introduction in more large-scale digital ecosystems are considered. As a result the database ready for use as a management solution for higher education institutions is created. This is important as information technologies provide additional opportunities for the development in the sphere of higher education, quality improvement of the educational process. The authors conclude that introduction of innovative information technologies in management system of higher education institution is relevant and perspective.

The paper discusses the features of constructing individual learning paths for the disciplines of the natural science cycle (on the example of Computer Science) in the context of a ranking system for assessing the knowledge of students in Higher Education in the context of the introduction of Federal State Educational Standards for higher education 3++ in various areas of training. Various options are proposed for constructing learning paths that provide an individual approach to learning, achieving the required level of formation of general professional competencies in the discipline of “Computer Science” and increasing motivation in learning, as well as the formation of an adequate student self-esteem. In particular, options are considered for constructing an individual learning path for differentiated control points (exam or test with “satisfactory”, “good” and “excellent” grades) and undifferentiated control points, implying an assessment of the level of formation of general professional competencies in the form of “pass” and “fail”.

The Impact

The imbalance between the labor market and the higher education system in the Russian Federation is highly relevant for discussion in the pedagogical environment. Overcoming structural problems is a difficult task, especially in the context of an economic crisis. The transition of Russian higher education to the Bologna model was complicated by many factors. An additional task at this point was the need to reform the structure of the output of specialists, since for some of them there was a large oversupply in the labor market, and for others there was a lack. In addition, the growing process of digitalization has made it necessary to train a sufficient number of specialists in the areas that ensure the spread of information technologies. State policy in the field of higher education has changed the number of students enrolled in the most popular bachelor's degree programs and has affected their structure depending on the form of tuition fees. The study found that the total number of students in the most popular areas of training-economics, management and law-has decreased, but they have retained their leadership, and the structure of students in these specialties is dominated by those who study on a contractual basis. At the same time, the demands of the economy caused a fairly rapid reaction of the higher education system and led to an increase in the number of students in the areas of linguistics, information systems and technologies, and defectological education. As a result of state support, despite the reduction in the total number of students, the share of budget and target students in those professions that are now most in demand in the economy has increased: construction, electric power and electrical engineering, agricultural engineering, computer science and computer engineering, applied computer science.
