Abstract

The relevance of the study is due to the increasing role of digital technologies in education. The abrupt shift of universities to distance learning during the COVID-19 pandemic has created new challenges. The purpose of this article is to analyze modern problems of traditional e-learning systems and identify the most effective digital technologies for improving the design system and implementing the content of professional educational programs at the university in the context of digitalization. Scientific articles in journals included in the Scopus database over the past five years, official websites of universities and their reports on the use of modern digital technologies were used as a statistical and empirical base for the study. Multiple comparative case studies and content analysis were ap-plied. To solve the identified problems, such modern digital technologies and methods as cloud computing, adaptive design, big data, 3D printing, wearable technologies and gamification were proposed. The paper proposes an updated digital education system model at the university consisting of such elements as Instructors & Students, Master Courses, Content Delivery, Courses Collaboration, Progress Tracking, Assignments, Practices and Exams. The conclusions and rec-ommendations formulated in this study can be used by different educational systems and universities.

Highlights

  • The role of digital technologies is increasing in all spheres of economic and social activity, including education

  • As noted in the literature, the main advantage of digital educational technologies is the ability to reduce the economic costs of organizing the educational process, its flexible change and implementation at a distance simultaneously for a significant number of students (Veselitsky et al, 2019; Evans-Amalu and Claravall, 2021)

  • To identify the existing problems of traditional e-learning and search for promising new digital technologies that allow solving these problems within the framework of the new digital education system, the method of multiple thematic comparative studies was applied

Summary

Introduction

The role of digital technologies is increasing in all spheres of economic and social activity, including education. Digital technologies are becoming a competitive advantage in modern conditions. As noted in the literature, the main advantage of digital educational technologies is the ability to reduce the economic costs of organizing the educational process, its flexible change and implementation at a distance simultaneously for a significant number of students (Veselitsky et al, 2019; Evans-Amalu and Claravall, 2021). Increasing the ability to provide educational material using various digital gadgets increases the cognitive activity of students (Tymoschuk et al, 2020). Mastering professional activities at the university using digital technologies allows obtaining digital competencies necessary in modern condition (Saliyeva et al, 2016)
