Abstract

Introduction. The relevance of the article is due to the realities of the digital transformation of educational process and the increasing requirements for the quality of digital education in the context of distance learning. The article discusses the problems associated with the specifics of distance education. At the same time, it is noted that this type of education has a high practical orientation, but is characterized by the predominance of self-study in the development of educational material. Purpose setting. The purpose of this article is to consider various aspects of designing an electronic educational environment, taking into account the possibility of personalizing the educational trajectory in the context of distance learning. Methodology of the study. This study includes a review of bibliographic sources on the personalization of the educational trajectory by means of an digital learning environment in the context of distance learning. It also includes building a model of the structure of an e-course taking into account the student’s model and a description of an example of implementing an e-course in the LMS Moodle of the Bashkir State Agrarian University. Results. The results of the work include a description and analysis of the problems associated with the organization of distance learning, as well as the results of modeling and testing an electronic course focused on a flexible educational trajectory within the framework of personalization of training. Conclusion. The final part of the work also discusses possible ways to improve the organization of training for part-time students. At the same time, it is concluded that distance learning students are more interested in using flexible individual educational trajectories that take into account their time resources and capabilities. Further direction of studying the problem of personalization of distance learning programs is associated with the study of new technologies for the design of digital educational resources and their practical testing.
