The global spread of coronavirus infection has paralysed the work of many areas of economic, business, and, of course, educational activities of almost all countries on the planet. Unfortunately, Ukraine is no exception and a quarantine regime has been introduced in this country. The way out of the current situation in education in Ukraine was the introduction of distance learning in all educational institutions, which created new challenges for both teachers and students. The purpose of the paper was to study information technologies, tools and methods of learning that can be used for distance learning in educational institutions under quarantine. As a result, authors analysed world practices in ensuring the educational process within the framework of distance learning. The advantages and disadvantages of distance learning technologies for both higher education institutions and higher education seekers were identified.

Currently, in the context of severe quarantine restrictions, one of the promising areas of the formation and development of the higher education system is the problem of its comprehensive informatization, which is based, first of all, on improving the information and educational environment for learning and the development of distance learning. Therefore, serious attention is paid to the development and implementation of modern information technologies in teaching practice. All this fully applies to the development of distance learning, which allows each person to improve their educational level with a minimum interruption from production, in their free time and according to an individual training program. Taking this into account, at the present stage of reforming the higher education system in the world, it is becoming more and more difficult to look for effective directions for training highly qualified specialists using traditional teaching aids, to respond promptly and promptly to the emerging needs of the labor market without understanding a large amount of relevant and accurate information. The article carried out a theoretical and methodological study of the very essence of distance education, and also investigated the main methods for assessing this type of education in a pandemic situation. The novelty of the article lies in the acquisition of the development of theoretical and methodological aspects of methods for assessing distance education in COVID-19 conditions.

Information technologies are introduced into education, which leads to improvement of graphic training of future specialists in engineering specialties. Implementation of information technology occurs in almost all sectors, but the most urgent solution of this issue the education system requires. It is hard to imagine a higher education institution that has been operating without the development of computer and information technology. Nowadays, the Internet and computer technology have become an integral part not only of daily life, but also of the educational process as a whole.

Therefore, the use of educational information technologies in education today should be focused on the achievement of a strategic goal - training in higher education institutions not only specialist, but also creatively thinking and acting individual, capable of continuous self-improvement and self-development. Thus, it is advisable to apply information technologies: animation, presentations, interactive whiteboard, which allow the teacher to communicate with students at the modern technological level, to make the learning process more attractive and effective in order to increase the effectiveness of the perception of the lecture course in graphic disciplines. While the implementation of interactive methodology in the process of studying graphic disciplines the principles of didactics are implemented: scientific, systematic, consistent, accessible, durable knowledge and clarity.

The quality and content are constantly increasing their relevance in the conditions of modern education. If quality can be understood as means and educational materials which are used in the process, the content is a sign of the diversity of these materials and a factor which takes into account the age, abilities and chances of learners. Taking into account these two important factors, the theoretical and practical bases of combining modern information technologies in improving the quality and content of the system of blended learning at philological higher education institutions of specialized in teaching English are described in detail. In addition, the paths and stages of creating a specific system that runs continuously, combining the effective and reasonable functions of social networking services (SNS) and messengers in consolidating the quality and content indicators of blended learning, are gradually illustrated. Besides that, by combining online educational materials with traditional place-based classroom methods at philological higher education institutions which are specialized in teaching English based on the approach of blended learning, the system of fostering students’ linguistic skills, such as reading, writing, listening, and speaking can be optimized and modernized according to the results of this research in the article.
