The article deals with the issues related to innovative technologies in the educational sphere, which acquire special significance and meaning in the situation of pandemic. It is mainly within this problem that the changes in the educational paradigm currently taking place are being understood. To a large extent, these transformations are linked with the introduction of information technologies into the educational process and the transfer of learning to online educational platforms. The author shows how, in one year of the pandemic, distance learning, which had been discussed for at least two decades, has become a tool indispensable for many educational tasks. Doing so without e-learning has become either problematic or impossible. Distance learning can be considered innovative due to its reliance on educational technologies that have not yet been fully tested, but are widely used by necessity. However, the real subject of innovation and educational process is the teacher. The purpose of the article is to analyze modern educational technologies and identify their innovative component.

The article examines the educational paradigm as a genesis indicator of changes in the educational field caused by social development, paradigm as a result of the implementation of integration processes. Besides, the personal self-realization of students as a manifestation of the student-centric paradigm is studied. Іn accordance with the objectives of the study, the following is performed. It summarises the key ideas of paradigms of traditional pedagogy (knowledge, ZUN, scientific- technocratic, paradigm of explanatory-illustrative learning) and people- oriented paradigms (child-centric, anthropological, cognitive, pragmatic, humanitarian, humanistic, cultural, paradigms of developmental and adaptive learning). It is established that paradigm analysis of modern education should be carried out in two directions: 1) to reveal its polyparadigmal character; 2) to provide a thorough consideration of the didactic features of the organizing the educational process within the specific educational paradigm. Considering the above mentioned matter in the article, the examples of polyparadigmal manifestations of multidimensional phenomena and processes in pedagogical reality are given. Didactic features of organising educational process in realisation of student-centered paradigm are also revealed. It is characterised such didactic tools as topic-presentation matrix and author’s music-markers of the beginning and end of the learning process (lectures, seminars, lessons, etc.). The self-realization of students with the use of these means is investigated. The complex of research methods is used in the work: general scientific (analysis, synthesis, comparison, systematization, generalization) and empirical (observations, discussions, questionnaires). The complex of research methods is used in the work: general scientific (analysis, synthesis, comparison, systematization, generalization) and empirical (observations, discussions, questionnaires). 110 respondents were involved in the study.

For the first time in history, the education system has experienced a crisis situation on a global scale, leading to total and forced isolation in social life and communication. In March 2020, full-time classes at universities in Poland were suspended due to the epidemic caused by the COVID-19 coronavirus. This state of affairs resulted in the need to shift scientific and didactic work to be “remote”. This article aims to present students’ opinions on e-learning and blended learning after several months of experience with such forms of learning. The main research problem was formulated as follows: “What are the Polish students’ opinions of e-learning during the pandemic?” The method of diagnostic survey and the questionnaire technique called the SWOT were used in the empirical research. The research was conducted in May and June 2020 in three selected universities. A total of 314 students took part in it. The results indicate that remote teaching has both specific strengths and weaknesses and that there are many opportunities and threats associated with this form of teaching; nevertheless, a larger proportion of the data were related to the weaknesses. Undoubtedly, there are still many activities that should be introduced into practice and everyday academic education. Perhaps a creative solution will be to introduce only some elements of distance learning, which can contribute to a better acquisition of IT and digital competences and can help students develop activity, self-discipline, and independent learning.

In the Concept of the New Ukrainian School, the main task of a modern secondary school is the education of conscious citizens of Ukraine, providing conditions for creative self-realization and self-determination of the individual. Changes and updates of the educational paradigm bring teachers to a modern understanding of the educational process as an activity based on self-development, self-improvement and their pedagogical support. It involves subject-object interaction in the educational space of the secondary school. One of its important components is the pedagogical conditions, compliance with which depends on the effectiveness of achieving the educational goal. The study of this problem is carried out in several areas: the role of pedagogical conditions for the formation and development of the personality of both the teacher and the subject to which the learning process is directed; organization, activation and modernization of subject training. The analysis allows us to state that the modern understanding of the concept of "pedagogical conditions" is complicated by the variety of research areas of scientists. Analysis of pedagogical, psychological and philosophical scientific literature shows that the problem of substantive and substantive analysis of the concept of pedagogical conditions is considered by scientists from different aspects. In the context of our study, we define pedagogical conditions as features of the organization of the educational process in a secondary school, which determine the results of upbringing, education and development of the student's personality, objectively ensuring the possibility of achieving them. In the course of our research the levels of pedagogical conditions were determined. Thus, considering the concept of pedagogical conditions in the context of educational activities of a secondary school, we came to the conclusion that pedagogical conditions are a qualitative characteristic of the main factors, processes and phenomena of the educational environment. Research in the direction of development of technologies of creation of optimum pedagogical conditions for the decision of certain problems of educational activity of comprehensive school is perspective.

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 aim of the study. In modern conditions of changing the global “educational landscape”, the leading trend in building a new educational process management system is the personalization of the educational process in the electronic environment. New pedagogical technologies and innovative forms of organizing personalized learning in the electronic environment are developing, one of which is adaptive learning. The development of the structure and content of adaptive e-learning courses, the design and implementation of an educational strategy, teaching methods, and approaches to assessing results is determined by the model of its subject domain - the model of learning content. The aim of the study is to develop an approach to constructing the learning content model of an adaptive e-learning course that provides a formalized presentation of the educational material of the discipline and the construction of a logically based strategy for its study. Materials and methods. Methodological basis of research methods make up the logical-epistemological analysis and graph theory, and comparative analysis of psychological and pedagogical, scientific and methodical works, analysis of regulatory documents on research issues, professional and federal educational standards of higher education. Results. A feature of the author's approach is structuring of the subject domain in the form of a sequence of terms (training objects) of the learning content, studied in a certain order and presented in several versions of the presentation. The presented model for constructing the learning content of the academic discipline differs from the wellknown ones by the presence of logical ordering of concepts based on the integration of logic methods of concept analysis, using logical and epistemological methods for correlating the volume and content of concepts with the methods of graph theory and hypergraphs. The definition of educational objects of a tree (hypergraphic tree) of terms is obtained on the basis of a concept tree of discipline with a further determination of the sequence of their study, as well as the inclusion of a phenomenological and structural model in the content of the educational object, which allows to identify and disclose the essence of each studied concept within the framework of the subject domain of discipline. Conclusion. The proposed approach has been tested in the educational process of the program 09.03.02 – “Information systems and technologies” at the Siberian Federal University. Analysis of observations and evaluating the effectiveness of adaptive e-learning course in the educational process was carried out using the Kruskal-Wallis test by ranks. As a result of the experiment, it was revealed that at the end of the experiment, the control and experimental groups were statistically significantly different, which allowed us to conclude that the adaptive e-learning course developed in the educational process was effective. Adaptive e-learning courses, which are based on the approach proposed by the authors, made it possible to present educational content in the form of logically integral micro portions, which allow the adaptation of the educational environment to the individual characteristics of students. In the future, the proposed approach can contribute to development of personalized adaptive learning university ecosystems under digitalization formation.

The work focuses on the basic principles of developing an adaptive learning system. The modern concept of open education assumes multilevel character of training, and also possibility of a choice of means, a place and time of training corresponding to its inquiries by trainees . This implies the availability of alternative teaching aids (courses) and application software for their creation, support of training and adaptation to a particular student. A significant challenge is to reduce the cost of developing e-learning courses and to increase their use in online learning. In addition, despite the availability of automated tools to simplify the development of pedagogical rules, it is impossible to generate rules suitable for any situation. These reasons have led to the search for a solution to the problem of developing e-learning courses that implement adaptive learning. The principles laid down in the concept of designing such a system are formulated. The structure of the system, including the model of the subject area (educational content), the model of the user, the model of adaptation and the model of evaluation of learning outcomes are presented. Within the framework of the proposed system, it has been developed and is at the testing stage. It is justified that the successful use of such a system by students contributes to the formation of their specific competences. In the adaptive system the roles of a teacher and a trainee are changing: a teacher is an organizer of the initial activities, and the responsibility for the results is shared with students. In this system, the democratic management style, not authoritarian one, is taken into account. A student is a performer of educational process and not a passive recipient of information (an object of the process). With the help of a teacher they acquire knowledge, actively involve into thinking process and plan own educational and cognitive activity. The central place in the adaptive learning system is occupied by a student with their individual features: biological potential and abilities, specifics of the organization of the cognitive process, the level of activity and independence in practical and cognitive activity, as well as efficiency, etc. The result of this system is a qualitative change in their individual features. Active independency of a student in the process of cognitive activities promote the development of individual qualities, the formation of intellectual and spiritual growth, as well as self-knowledge of a learner’s personality. This is the way the system is adapted to the formulation of competence of individual self-improvement.
