FROM COMPUTER LITERACY TO DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION OF EDUCATION

Abstract

The publishing of the 300th issue of the INFO magazine coincided with the approval of the Passport of the National Digital Economy Program. One of the Program' task is the development of the promising Digital Educational and Methodological Complexes (DEMC) that should transform the informatics’ classes at the public school. This event is considered as a step to the digital transformation of the Russian school. Digital transformation is considered as harnessing digital technologies to increase the productivity and value of an enterprise. Digital transformation of education is considered as the controlled and/or spontaneous process of the transformation of the content, methods and organizational forms of educational activities, which is aimed at improving the quality of schools in a rapidly developing digital environment to meet the requirements of the digital economy. The development of Digital Educational and Methodological Complexes, smart simulation and training apps and virtual laboratories provided by the Passport of the National Digital Economy Program for the implementation of general secondary and vocational education programs for areas of “Mathematics”, “Informatics” and “Technology” is аn important step towards the digital transformation of education. The DEMC for informatics curriculum that will be created under the Digital Economy Program has to predetermine the formation of digital literacy of the younger generation in the next decade. The features of the promising DEMC for informatics, which the author would like to see in it, are discussed.
