ABSTRACT Exponential development of information and communication technologies is changing the world of learning. As a consequence of exponential exposure to media and information flows, our brains are adapting and new skills are arising. This especially occurs with the new generation of people who encounter media and information tools at the earliest stages of life. Although many of us are aware of such changes, there is very little research-based information to explain them. In recent years, evidence was presented demonstrating neuroplastic basis of human brain adaptation, although neuroplastic mechanisms are still poorly understood. Today's schools and universities are still analogue, whereas the students can be said to be digital. The educational system does not properly recognize the skills of the new generations and does not respond to their needs. New aspects of social evolution suggest that we should also think not only of adapting our learning skills, but also our social skills. These skills should be integrated into all learning processes, from preschool education to lifelong learning. The aim of this editorial is to facilitate discussion within the medical profession about the arising new world of learning. How to cite this article Lucin P, Mahmutefendic H.

Introduction. Modern education of children is one of the most rapidly changing systems, actively using modern capabilities of information and communication technologies and e-learning tools. Information and communication technologies increase the load on the visual, auditory analyzers, the nervous system and contribute to the development of overwork in children. The use of digital media is becoming increasingly widespread, not only in school, before and in preschool education. To substantiate the concept and integrated system of the hygienic safety of electronic educational content and children’s life in conditions of hyper-informatization, physiological and hygienic studies are required. Materials and methods. In order to develop the scientific foundations and technologies for ensuring the hygienic safety of children in the “Digital School”, an expert-analytical study was carried out based on the results of representative hygienic observations and non-randomized controlled studies with Contribution of volunteers. Results. Studies of childhood hygiene allowed justifying the modern system of hygiene and health care of children and adolescents in a hyper-informational society, including criteria of the hygienic safety, including in the editorial, intended for children and adolescents; sanitary rules and norms of ensuring the hygienic safety of the new generation; federal recommendations of medical support of students in the conditions of using information and communication technologies; federal guidelines for students ’mental health and well-being; recommendations to the family in the field of ensuring the safety of children’s life in a digital environment; recommendations to producers and distributors of content in the field of ensuring the medical, psychological and pedagogical safety of children’s life, including the age marking of information products; gaming educational and educational programs on the rules for the safe use of children on the Internet; a system for monitoring the effectiveness of hygienic safety policies and protecting children from negative information in a hyper-information society.

The current state of the problem is analyzed and the contradictions in the process of teaching professional methods between the existing theoretical basis of professional training of future teachers and the insufficient level of professional competence of graduates, which is partly explained by the low level of motivation of many students to work in preschool education. The scientific research devoted to the application of information and communication technologies in the educational process, the definition of levels of readiness of students to use information and communication technologies and skills of the teacher who has mastered information and communication competence are analyzed. The article presents the results of a study of the levels of formation of artistic competence of undergraduates by motivational, emotional, intellectual, activity criteria and relevant indicators; methods of pedagogical diagnostics are specified. The principles, methods, and forms of using information and communication technologies in the context of the discipline "Art Education of Preschool Children" are revealed. The correlation between forms and methods of interaction of the teacher with pupils based on the use of information and communication technologies is shown. Factors of efficiency of use of information and communication technologies are defined: increase of interest of students to academic discipline, motivation to self-improvement and self-development, modernization of content of educational disciplines by innovative forms of interaction, methods, and receptions of formation of corresponding professional competence at future masters.

This article is devoted to the problems of notary activity related to registration of inheritance rights using digital technologies. Inheritance by will is one of the most common grounds for the emergence of property rights of citizens. At the same time, there are new forms of disposal of their property in the order of inheritance. So, in 2016, lawmakers attempted to introduce an oral form of a will, but the proposal was not included in the civil code of the Russian Federation. Notaries, like any other specialists in the modern world, use information and communication technologies. The result of using information tools is making a will by using audio and video digital equipment. The most common idea today is to create an official state website for electronic wills. This would greatly facilitate the enforcement of the civil code. In connection with innovations, certain problems will arise, the solutions to which the authors suggest in their article.
