- Abstract
The rapid development of digital technologies has led to the emergence of a new milestone in human civilization, the digital era, which is characterized by the appearance of virtual human extensions, that is, the Internet, as well as various gadgets and devices that make it possible to constantly be online and combine existence in the real physical world with “life” in the digital (virtual) universe. The formation of a new social reality that arises as a result of complementing reality with a virtual (digital) component, where online and offline being are connected together, is the main challenge of our time and determines the direction of actual transformations in almost all spheres of human life. It is becoming impossible to live actively outside the development and quality use of the potential capabilities of modern information technologies, especially in the field of educational services. Thus, a special function of education is crystallized: to teach a person to use information resources, to form appropriate competencies, to educate the ability to live in a new information space. For its implementation, modern education should significantly change its own contours, adopt and move to a new philosophical development paradigm, the information. Informational reloads determine the essence of the reform of modern education. In connection with the above, the article is devoted to the substantiation of priority areas for the development of education in the context of digital transformation and the information society.
