Abstract:
As a result of the research the following spheres of influence of virtual
environment on the university were defined: professional, environmental, functional.
Exogenous and endogenous factors of information and communication technologies
affecting universities were identified. In order to increase the efficiency of the educational
process in the university it was proposed to introduce SMART-complexes
of disciplines. The structure of SMART-complexes of disciplines is established,
consisting of the following modules: definition of the level of learning, assessment
of learning efficiency, content for adaptive learning, tasks for adaptive learning,
a set of databases for storing learning profiles, a knowledge base with a mechanism
for logical output. Detailed components of the educational SMART-complexes
guide students in their learning activities to correctly find the tasks that are most
appropriate and necessary at present, to effectively define strategies and methods
of learning, taking into account their personal factors. A methodology for assessing
the digitalization level of a university based on fuzzy logic as a tool for managing
processes of the digital transformation of the educational process is proposed. The
following groups of indicators were identified to assess the digitalization level of the
university: digital literacy of teachers, digital literacy of students and digitalization
of the educational process. Assessing the digitalization level of the university will
reveal the strengths and weaknesses of the educational process, justify the necessary
effective management decisions. The main directions of state policy for digitalization
of education have been defined. The need to create a comprehensive national
system for the development of digital literacy, combining the efforts of academic and
non-formal education on the basis of public-private partnership has been stressed.
The most important function of traditional higher education institutions remains the socialization of students, so in order to improve the quality of education, it is
appropriate to use mixed learning through various forms of education.
