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.

The introduction of quarantine restrictions in the world has led to restrictions on many industries of both economic and social spheres of life. Education has not become an exception. The need to level the large number of students necessitated the search for alternative ways of organising educational and pedagogical processes. This is especially an issue for higher education institutions. Higher education institutions train specialists for many sectors of the economy and a significant break in the educational process due to quarantine restrictions could lead to a real collapse of the higher education system. This necessitates the search for ways to transform the pedagogical process in higher education institutions and the introduction of alternative mechanisms and methods of organising the educational process. The purpose of the study was to investigate the ways of transformation of the pedagogical process in higher education during the quarantine. A systematic algorithm for studying the transformation of the pedagogical process in conditions of quarantine and quarantine restrictions in higher education has been developed. The advantages and disadvantages of distance learning technologies of higher education have been identified. The main features of such remote technologies as Moodle, Google Classroom, and Zoom are analysed.

II Международный конгресс ЮНЕСКО «Образование и информатика» (1996) и «Окинавская хартия Глобального информационного общества» (2000) объявили информационные технологии стратегическим ресурсом в образовании. Революционные воздействия этих документов напрямую относились к жизни людей, их образованию и работе. И вот сейчас в 2021 году актуализировалась потребность использования информационных технологий в образовании для содействия и помощи студентам шире использовать свой потенциал и реализовывать свои устремления в эпоху пандемии COVID-19. В связи с этим для укрепления студенческого потенциала необходимо уделять особое внимание высшему образованию и одновременно расширять возможность пожизненного обучения с упором на развитие навыков использования информационных технологий через систему дистанционных образовательных технологий. Информационные технологии обучения – это совокупность электронных средств компьютера, компьютерных сетей, компьютерных телекоммуникаций, других средств связи и способов их функционирования, используемых для реализации образовательного процесса. Все эти средства должны эффективно работать не только для непосредственной информатизации учебного процесса, но и для информатизации всего комплекса процессов, характерных для системы высшего образования. Помимо расширения традиционной технической помощи для эффективного функционирования дистанционного обучения, необходимо содействовать подготовке специалистов в сфере информационных технологий и разрабатывать инновационные подходы. В статье анализируются проблема применения дистанционных образовательных технологий в системе высшего образования России. Авторы рассматривают информатизацию высшего образования с его достоинствами и недостатками с учетом собственного опыта преподавания, а также ставят вопрос о необходимости развития дистанционного обучения, повышения его эффективности и дальнейших перспективах.

In 2013, the Regulation on Distance Learning came into force, probably then no one could have imagined that distance learning would be as popular around the world as it is now. In general, the purpose of developing distance education was to provide the opportunity to receive education in another city or country, but without the direct presence of a person, presence only in the most necessary circumstances, including state exams, thesis defense, and so on. Apropos, even before 2013, distance learning was used in the most famous institutions of higher education in the world. The present is impossible to imagine without distance learning. What has only recently become an isolated phenomenon has become widespread. But at the same time there is a problem of how to effectively organize the educational process using distance learning technologies. The solution to this problem is to use an educational platform, in particular, the Moodle platform. The creation of courses on the Moodle platform with a description of the main stages is characterized. The possibilities of the Moodle educational platform are described and the developed distance courses on the Moodle platform are presented, in particular "Computer networks and the Internet", "Computer graphics and design of polygraphic editions", "Computer design and multimedia", "Programming Internet-oriented applications", which consist of such sections as instructional, which also contains a chat and a forum, lectures, laboratory (practical) works, independent work, modular control work, exam, individual training.
