Introduction Of New Digital Technologies Research Articles

Transformation of pedagogical consciousness in the context of digitalization of society

The transition from the informatization stage to the stage of digitalization in the world, including in our country, occurred very quickly. This gives society advantages, but also makes you think about the problems that have appeared in connection with this. Digitalization in education opens up wide opportunities for learning people of different ages throughout their lives, but at the same time requires cardinal changes in the entire education system. All this leads to the transformation of pedagogical consciousness. Since colossal changes in digital technologies, including in the education system, are proceeding rapidly, the consciousness of many teachers does not have time to rebuild. As a result of the study, it was found that this leads to stress, dissatisfaction, fears and irritation. Only a few are interested and excited. There is a process of awareness of one's Self in a changing pedagogical space, one's place in it. The results of the study confirm that the speed of introduction of new digital technologies in the education system depends on the pain of the transformation of pedagogical consciousness. The course Active Methods of Socio-Psychological Learning on the basis of the Master's program Psychological and Pedagogical Education of Samara University allows you to prepare teachers to solve problems related to the transformation of pedagogical consciousness in the context of digitalization of education.

Impact of the Coronacrisis on Germany's Transition to a Climate-neutral Economy

The author continues the study of the impact of the coronavirus crisis on the economic and political space of Germany. The second article outlines the features of the double transition ‒ energy and digital ‒ to a climate-neutral economy. Germany is carrying it out within the framework of the European Green Deal, the adoption of which almost coincided with the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The coronavirus crisis has become a catalyst for the transformation processes in the field of energy and digitalization, many of which Berlin began to implement long before the onset of its consequences. Lockdowns have led to a reduction in industry's primary energy and electricity consumption, motivated businesses to relocate employees to home-based work, and accelerate the introduction of new digital technologies. The coronavirus crisis has become a challenge for government departments, healthcare institutions, secondary and higher education, which management and employees were not ready for a quick use of distance technologies. The author analyzes the structural policy of the coalition government, the contribution of German-French initiatives and projects to the implementation of the double transition in the field of energy, cloud technologies and artificial intelligence, assesses the role of a new Climate Protection Law

Digital (R)Evolution: Open-Source Softwares for Orthodontics

Among the innovations that have changed modern orthodontics, the introduction of new digital technologies in daily clinical practice has had a major impact, in particular the use of 3D models of dental arches. The possibility for direct 3D capture of arches using intraoral scanners has brought many clinicians closer to the digital world. The digital revolution of orthodontic practice requires both hardware components and dedicated software for the analysis of STL models and all other files generated by the digital workflow. However, there are some negative aspects, including the need for the clinician and technicians to learn how to use new software. In this context, we can distinguish two main software types: dedicated software (i.e., developed by orthodontic companies) and open-source software. Dedicated software tend to have a much more user-friendly interface, and be easier to use and more intuitive, due to being designed and developed for a non-expert user, but very high rental or purchase costs are an issue. Therefore, younger clinicians with more extensive digital skills have begun to look with increasing interest at open-source software. The aim of the present study was to present and discuss some of the best-known open-source software for analysis of 3D models and the creation of orthodontic devices: Blue Sky Plan, MeshMixer, ViewBox, and Blender.

Transformation of the Financial Law Method in Conditions of Digitalization of Economy

The paper examines the influence of digitalization on the method of financial law. The recent widespread introduction of new digital technologies leads to a change in the internal essence of the processes of influencing public relations, to the expansion and transformation of ways of influencing the behavior of participants of such relationships. By supplementing traditional ways of legal regulation by technical means of ensuring their implementation, the State increases the effectiveness of the mechanism of legal regulation. Digital technologies provide law with the possibility of regulating public relations in fundamentally new ways, expanding the variability of the tools of the method of financial law. This also causes increased discretion (dispositivity) in the process of regulating financial relations. Digital technologies also contribute to the regulation of cross-border relations, in particular information exchange between different jurisdictions. The author believes that the trends discussed in the paper will only increase, leading to a change in the content of the method of financial law.

Effect of Digital Technologies on the Marginal Accuracy of Conventional and Cantilever Co–Cr Posterior-Fixed Partial Dentures Frameworks

The introduction of new digital technologies represents an important advance to fabricate metal–ceramic restorations. However, few studies have evaluated the influence of these technologies on the fit of the restorations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different manufacturing techniques and pontic design on the vertical marginal fit of cobalt–-chromium (Co–Cr) posterior fixed partial dentures (FPDs) frameworks. Methods: Eighty stainless-steel dies were prepared to receive 3-unit FPDs frameworks with intermediate pontic (n = 40) and cantilever pontic (n = 40). Within each design, the specimens were randomly divided into four groups (n = 10 each) depending on the manufacturing technique: casting (CM), direct metal laser sintering (LS), soft metal milling (SM), and hard metal milling (HM). The frameworks were luted, and the vertical marginal discrepancy was assessed. Data analysis was made using Kruskal–Wallis and Mann–Whitney U tests (α = 0.05). Results: The vertical marginal discrepancy values of all FPDs were below 50 μm. The HM frameworks obtained the lowest misfit values in both designs. However, no differences were found among intermediate pontic groups or cantilevered groups. Likewise, when differences in a marginal discrepancy between both framework designs were analyzed, no differences were observed. Conclusions: The analyzed digital technologies demonstrated high precision of fit on Co–Cr frameworks and on both pontic designs.

Management Transformation with a Single Digital Platform as Exemplified by Accounting

Abstract The paper considers the solution to the problem of accounting method transformation under the influence of the accelerating economy digitalization that requires transition to new methods of working with information: in addition to reflecting the history of business activities, accounting statements should allow making decisions for the future at any time and at any production process stage; that is, it should be re-oriented from the control function to the informative one. This, in turn, requires integration based on digital standards of reporting information with information reflecting other aspects of the business and the external environment through developing new indicators, new methods of collecting and processing data. We have shown that a solution to this problem could be creating a single digital economy management platform consisting of two specialized sub-platforms: an aggregator sub-platform for collecting and accumulating primary data and an application sub-platform for production management tasks. In this case, a widespread introduction of a single digital platform in any production process allows to migrate to a new type of manufacturing enterprises: from the quality control phase after the production phase towards the principle of current control over all production operation, which should also affect the entire taxation system. This system will become more efficient by increasing tax collection, reducing the cost of maintaining the financial and accounting service and actively including it in the production management system. In addition, such a digital platform will release a significant number of IT specialists, who are sorely lacking in the country, especially in agriculture, from the financial and accounting service with their reorientation to the introduction of new digital technologies in the form of mathematical models, artificial intelligence, big data, neural networks, which will give an additional impetus to the accelerated digitalization of the economy.

Innovation and the Digital Transformation of Education

Digital transformation institutions expect fundamental disruptions in nature of both demand and supply of the economic delivery model for higher education. The key drivers of change for education are; the rapid introduction of new digital technologies, the development of new educational delivery systems, and economic models and the changing educational expectations from a new generation of learners, digital natives. Student expectations stemming from their interactions with Virtual Reality (VR)/ Augmented Reality (AR), Artificial Intelligence (AI), gamification, personalization will drive their educational choices. Thus, faculty and institutions will need to “up their game” in the development of services and experiences that will meet student expectations. As a result, this will require new delivery methods and restructuring of educational systems and structures.

Transformation of Regional Specialization Industries in the Conditions of New Technological Challenges

The paper substantiates the significance of the problem of developing new branches of regional specialization. The mechanisms of transformation of regional specializations are investigated. The productive role of the concept of smart for socio-economic and industrial development is noted. The empirical base of the study was Russia’s statistics for 2010-2018. The method of correlation and regression analysis identifies the influence of the way of using digital technologies on the development of traditional industries. The factors affecting the functioning of the industrial sector of Russia were identified. The current requirements and approaches to identifying the priorities of specialization of a region are given. As a result of the study, it was concluded that in order to transform traditional specialization industries and increase their competitiveness in modern conditions, their active interaction (integration and associated participation in production chains) with high-tech fast-growing industries is paramount. As expected, the introduction of new digital technologies will contribute to the growth of traditional industries, which will lead to an increase in their economic sustainability.

Industry 4.0 Development Prospects and Introduction Readiness into Russian Enterprises

Today the competitiveness of the Russian economy is closely dependent on the successful introduction of new digital technologies into the domestic industry. In the study, the authors analysed features of the industrial revolution in Russia and other countries. It was discovered that the industrial Internet is currently underutilized in the Russian market. However, one of its notable characteristics is the dominance of the industrial segment in the Russian Internet of Things, which indicates promising development prospects for the industrial Internet technology in Russia. The authors also analysed readiness of Russian enterprises to introduce Industry 4.0 technologies. Although the enterprises clearly expressed their readiness to implement digital technologies, there are some objective difficulties that set back the process. The main obstacles that prevent the integration of the industrial Internet into the Russian industry are insufficient flexibility of enterprises, a lack of developed digital business models of companies, a shortage of skilled personnel, and limited funding. In the conclusion, the authors set some objectives that need to be addressed in order to facilitate the development of the industrial Internet in Russia based on the findings of the study.
