Abstract

The number of schoolchildren and students, as well as teachers and university professors who do not attend schools and universities due to the outbreak of the coronavirus infection (COVID-19) is growing significantly. Governments around the world, including Russia, were forced to decide to close their educational institutions in order to contain the global COVID-19 pandemic. However, the closure of schools and universities across the country has led millions of students to switch from traditional learning to distance learning. In this regard, the authors attempted to assess the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on education in Russia. The study was conducted using nonparametric methods to assess the degree of correlation between the transition to distance learning during the pandemic and the effectiveness of training in higher education institutions. The study showed that the major Russian universities have coped with the problem of distance learning by using information services and training platforms.
