В статье рассматривается проблема адаптации образовательной программы подготовки ИТ-специалистов к решению сложных инженерных и, одновременно, творческих задач, связанных с развитием дата-журналистики. В качестве источника больших данных используются открытые государственные данные о системе здравоохранения. В статье отражены отдельные положения проектного обучения, сформированного на стандартах проектной и системно-инженерной деятельности, а также на принципах проведения хакатонов, где главным приоритетом является интеллектуальная составляющая работы команды и ее идеи. Приведены некоторые результаты использования проектного обучения при взаимодействии студентов - будущих ИТ-разработчиков с журналистами и исследователями данных. Предложенный подход и полученные на его основе результаты проектного обучения могут использоваться при создании методических рекомендаций для разработки совместных междисциплинарных образовательных программ, объединяющих сферу подготовки будущих ИТ-специалистов и дата-журналистов. The article discusses the problem of adapting the educational program of training IT specialists to solving complex engineering and, at the same time, creative problems associated with the development of data journalism. Open government data on the health care system is used as a source of big data. The article proposes the main provisions of the approach to project training, formed on the standards of project and system engineering activities, as well as on the principles of conducting hackathons, where the main priority is the intellectual component of the team's work and its ideas. Some results of the use of project-based learning in the interaction of students - future IT developers with journalists and data researchers are presented. The proposed approach and the results of project training obtained on its basis can be used to create guidelines for the development of joint interdisciplinary educational programs that combine the field of training future IT specialists and data journalists.

Nowadays, governments launch open government data (OGD) portals that provide data that can be accessed and used by everyone for their own needs. Although the potential economic value of open (government) data is assessed in millions and billions, not all open data are reused. Moreover, the open (government) data initiative as well as users’ intent for open (government) data are changing continuously and today, in line with IoT and smart city trends, real-time data and sensor-generated data have higher interest for users. These “smarter” open (government) data are also considered to be one of the crucial drivers for the sustainable economy, and might have an impact on information and communication technology (ICT) innovation and become a creativity bridge in developing a new ecosystem in Industry 4.0 and Society 5.0. The paper inspects OGD portals of 60 countries in order to understand the correspondence of their content to the Society 5.0 expectations. The paper provides a report on how much countries provide these data, focusing on some open (government) data success facilitating factors for both the portal in general and data sets of interest in particular. The presence of “smarter” data, their level of accessibility, availability, currency and timeliness, as well as support for users, are analyzed. The list of most competitive countries by data category are provided. This makes it possible to understand which OGD portals react to users’ needs, Industry 4.0 and Society 5.0 request the opening and updating of data for their further potential reuse, which is essential in the digital data-driven world.
