Changes in education contribute to its modernization and renewal. Along with new forms, methods and means of enriching the educational process, the well-known teaching methods using electronic textbooks also hold a positive trend. In the Tomsk Technical School of Railway Transport — branch of the Siberian Transport University electronic textbooks are widely used. The tendency of their application and implementation in educational activities, both with full-time and distance learning, gives good results. Because they use an electronic textbook created for everyone requirements. A plus is the fact that the electronic textbook is developed on the basis of the copyright material of the subject teacher, taking into account intrasubject and intersubject communications. Such development gives a number of advantages over the traditional print publication and allows to achieve higher levels of learning in comparison with traditional forms of training.For students of all specialties, the electronic textbook is an indispensable assistant in the development of disciplines, and for graduates of the specialty “Information Systems” such a textbook is also a good test of their knowledge, skills and competencies. Students of this specialty develop and create electronic textbooks for a technical school under the guidance of scientific advisers and subject teachers, from whom it was requested to present the training course in a multimedia form. as an example, we consider the features of the development, creation, implementation of an electronic textbook on the subject “Astronomy” in the educational process.

Problem and goal. Despite a significant amount of work on the creation of electronic textbooks, interest in them does not wane. Currently, when developing them, it becomes necessary to take into account the features of the Z generation. The purpose of the study is a didactic analysis and description of the concept of transformer books and an inverted textbook. Methodology. The idea of creating such intellectual teaching aids is associated with the use of mental schemes of the subject area, hidden psychoanalysis of the perception type of the learner and the question-task form of training. The textbooks being designed provide for a change in the learning strategy (from the paradigm accumulating knowledge to solve problems to the paradigm solving problems by mastering the necessary knowledge). In this case, the educational model of the white box is used, which allows visualizing the dynamics of the acquisition by student the knowledge of the subject area. Results. A procedure for developing inverted textbooks and transformer books is proposed. Prototypes of such electronic tools when used in a real educational process have shown their high effectiveness in self-educational activities of students. Conclusion. The use of transformational and inverted electronic textbooks allows not only to automate the learning process without real contact with the teacher, but also contributes to a significant increase in the motivation of modern students to self-study. The materials of the article are of practical value for developers of e-learning tools, as well as teachers who prefer to use innovative teaching methods.

The article deals with the effectiveness of electronic textbooks in Ukrainian schools, the understanding of the concept of «electronic textbook» in Ukrainian legislation governing publishing. The article analyses basic principles of creating electronic textbooks on three platform: Bristar, Розумники and MozaWeb. The problems of creating electronic textbooks for elementary school have been highlighted. The prospects for further research and the possibility of using electronic textbooks in the educational process have been described. It has been emphasized that the perception of the term «e-book» has changed. Previously, this term was understood as the device which the reading was carried out, now an e-book is a content that requires playback by individual devices. The multimedia educational publications created in the framework of the experiment of introducing the electronic textbook and the electronic platform and their compliance with the Regulations on the electronic textbook are analyzed. Summarizing our analysis, we can highlight that non-compliance with the Regulations has been identified, such as insufficient playback of products on different operating systems, non-unified design between parts of the publication that are interactive, and content of the print edition that created the electronic version. Some editions which are recommended by the Ministry of Education and Science are difficult to buy for later use, and some of them are only available in the demo version. Keywords: e-learning publication, e-textbook, New Ukrainian School, e-textbook, interactive textbook, multimedia content.
