Abstract

The article highlights the problematic issues of organizing distance education. The negative and positive aspects of distance learning and the peculiarities of its use in foreign universities are determined. It is concluded that in practice there are three traditional forms of educational institutions that offer distance learning using modern online platforms. It has been found that the British system of distance education is recognized as the oldest. The results of the assessment of the use of distance learning in European and US institutions based on their capabilities and market needs at the level of a particular university, state, province are presented. Virtual dynamic learning environments and platforms are analyzed. It is determined that the insufficient level of computerization of the country's society and the education system in particular, the low development of network information technologies by educational institutions, the lack of formation of the national educational space in the Web environment do not allow to realize significant potential opportunities for distance learning at present. It is concluded that distance learning has entered the 21st century as the most effective system of training and continuous support of a high qualification level of specialists in various fields and industries.
