Tsis and V. Lyaudis). The survey was conducted with the participation of second, third and fourth year bachelor students of the Department of Pedagogy and Special Education of Oles Honchar Dnipro National University. According to the results of the ascertaining stage of the questionnaire, the significance of information and computer technologies in the educational process of the specified university is clarified and the most relevant for effective provision of distance learning is determined among them. The gradual growth of the rating of the online format of education is outlined: from the perception of almost half of respondents as a modern alternative to traditional education – to take an almost dominant position in the case of their independent learning activities, especially for high school students. Some students even reported improved performance through new opportunities for self-study, and most respondents did not feel the negative impact of changing the form of study and increasing the amount of independent work. At the same time, there were obstacles to the effectiveness of self-study in the form of lack of information skills in a third of respondents and the skills of organizing independent work in a quarter of respondents. According to the results of the survey, the lack of the proper level of self-regulation of educational activities, volitional and motivational characteristics of the individual in the vast majority of bachelors.
