DIGITALIZATION OF EDUCATIONAL PROCESSES

Abstract

The modern world is rapidly developing under the influence of information and digital technologies that penetrate all spheres of human activity, including education. Digitalization of educational processes is becoming a key condition for improving the quality of education, expanding access to knowledge and forming new pedagogical practices. This topic became especially relevant during the COVID-19 pandemic, when educational institutions were forced to switch to a distance learning format as soon as possible, relying exclusively on digital platforms and resources. This circumstance showed both the possibilities and vulnerabilities of the digital environment, revealed the need for a systemic digital transformation of education. Digitalization also plays an important role in the formation of digital literacy, critical thinking and readiness for life in the digital economy. That is why the study of the processes of digitalization of education is an important and timely scientific task.
