Abstract

The article considers the concept of distance education and its impact on the psyche of students and teachers. The main ways of assessing the quality of distance education are outlined. The psychological and pedagogical features of the relationship between teacher and student in the educational and pedagogical process are revealed. The mechanisms of application of distance learning methods in higher school are analyzed. The positive and negative sides of distance learning are indicated. It was found that significant technical factors in reducing the success of student learning are technical and psychological unwillingness of teachers to work online. Peculiarities of pedagogical control over the efficiency of the educational process are revealed. It is established that distance learning has exacerbated a number of psychological problems, among which the key is the problem of emotional burnout. It is noted that the use of distance education has the advantage of removing psychological barriers to communication, blurs boundaries (the student can study regardless of place of residence). This technology of the educational process is invaluable in the period of quarantine restrictions, as it guarantees the absence of direct contact between people, allows active learning even during illness or self-isolation. It has been established that distance learning has exacerbated a number of psychological problems, not least the problem of emotional burnout. This phenomenon is observed in both students and teachers and manifests itself in a variety of negative physiological reactions of the body, namely: poor sleep, fatigue, drowsiness, psychosomatic diseases and destructive psychological conditions such as stress, bad mood, depression, apathy, high levels of neuroticism, emotional excitability, increased anxiety, fear, predominance of asthenic emotions, irritability. The reason for these reactions is the general negative situation in the country and in the world as a whole, in the forced self-isolation of man, as well as in the unusualness and maladaptation of teachers and students to distance learning conditions. It is pointed out that distance education today helps students to develop such qualities as independence, mobility and responsibility, develops skills of self-education, which is highly valued in the labor market. Unfortunately, distance education also has its downsides. For example, the lack of direct communication between students and teachers. In addition, distance education requires the student to have the necessary technical equipment for constant access to sources of information, as well as a very strong motivation to systematically study independently.
