"Educational Resources and Technologies"

Annotation: In modern society, digital technologies are an integral element of every person’s life, they are not only a tool for learning about the world, but also the very environment of existence. Therefore, the domestic higher education system is designed to ensure the transition of society into the digital age. An important role in achieving this task is assigned to the teacher of higher education, who not only has to master digital tools independently, but also adapt the training program to modern trends of digitalization in professional activity. Based on the review of priority directions of strategic development of higher education and the existing experience of its digitalization, the author solves the problem of systematization of trends in the digital transformation of this industry. Priorities are determined in the areas of modernization of the education system, taking into account the demand for personnel in the real sector of the economy and the mechanisms for building the educational process. The article highlights the threats of digitalization of education and possible preventive measures to eliminate them.

Annotation: The relevance of the study is caused by the rapid digital transformation of higher education. The possibilities of using virtual environment means as self-sufficient educational products in the educational process of the university are considered. The subject of the study is electronic educational resources as effective conditions of students’ foreign language knowledge formation in university. In the course of the experimental study, the needs for improving students’ foreign language knowledge were identified, the levels of foreign language competence were determined and conditions were substantiated that ensure the effectiveness of foreign language competence forming. Electronic educational resources were used in order to provide experimental work in the context of Foreign language learning. An empirical testing of innovative educational resources in teaching Foreign language in a technical university has been carried out and described. A set of methodological support for monitoring foreign language competence has been implemented. The proposed recommendations can be applied for foreign language training among the students of technical universities. The conclusions about the effectiveness of the electronic resources realization in the educational process were stated.

Annotation: The article describes the problems of an educational and upbringing nature, the emergence of which is directly related to the alternation of generations and the intensification of the intergenerational gap in the conditions of intensive development of information and communication technologies. The education area is facing the problem of rapid adaptation to new conditions in terms of technical, scientific, methodological and personnel issues. The perfection of the educational process is possible only with the introduction of a rational correlation of innovations and traditions at any level of modern education. The article provides an analysis of the main characteristics of generations, whose representatives are both students and teachers in the broad sense of these concepts. The criteria for the value of knowledge, skills and abilities of representatives of each generation are described. It is noted that taking into account the transformation of the fundamental characteristics of generations, there is a need to improve and develop the education system. In the new standards, it is necessary to repare educational trajectories for the next generation, for which “smart” technologies become not just communication and learning tool, but ordinary social practices. The prognostic characteristics and specificities of teaching a new generation are given.

Annotation: The digitalization of society, as well as the rapid progress in the field of information technology and artificial intelligence, make new and increased demands on the field of education. Global trends in the modern educational process point to the huge role and importance of distance learning, especially in technical specialties. The research is devoted to topical issues of the development of cognitive technology of personalized professional technical distance learning using a unified artificial immune system. The proposed technology uses not classical artificial intelligence algorithms, but modified algorithms based on clonal selection, negative selection and immune networks. Unification is aimed at reducing the diversity of modified algorithms in order to identify the most effective for a particular data set. The proposed technology makes it possible to take into account the cognitive and physiological characteristics of the student when developing a learning trajectory in order to obtain a highquality technical education. The main stages of the functioning of remote cognitive technology are considered. The results of experiments obtained on the basis of the Kazakh-British Technical University with the participation of students of the Faculty of Information Technology are presented.

Annotation: The article explores the algorithms that are used in the field of education when testing students. It is shown that special algorithms are used for testing systems, which can represent a cognition tool and a knowledge assessment tool. It is shown that the algorithm can serve to describe the patterns of the surrounding world. The general description of algorithms is an information structure. The relationship between the algorithm and the information field is shown. The systematics of algorithms in relation to testing tasks is given. The aspects of complexity, resource use, structure and sequence of actions are considered. Schemes of algorithms of different types are given. The article describes a trinitarian model of the algorithm, which can serve as the basis for describing the algorithm as an object of cognition. The properties of the cognitive model of the algorithm are considered. The article introduces a new characteristic of the algorithm – “algorithm cognitiveness”, which is important and necessary when creating testing algorithms. The cognitiveness of the testing algorithm is characterized by a number of factors: test perception, reception, perception and apperception by students of the testing task. The obtained research results can be used to create a model of an intelligent testing system for students.
