Digital Transformation Impact on the Educational Process in Mathematical and IT Studying Areas

Abstract

Digital transformation in education is considered as a process of introducing new (modern) digital technologies into the educational process, allowing to radically change the educational process towards comfortable conditions of interaction of all participants of the educational process in order to improve the quality of education. The process of digital transformation is dynamic, multi-stage and requires understanding of intermediate results for further improvement of educational activities. The purpose of this work is to find out the attitude of students and teachers to this process, identify and assess the problems, needs of all stakeholders, propose ways of further transformation of the educational process and outline a plan for further activities of internal independent assessment of the quality of education. To achieve this goal, a study was conducted, including the compilation of questions and the survey of students and teachers of the Institute of Information Technology, Mathematics and Mechanics. The article presents the results of the conducted research in the form of histograms and their analysis, as a result of which "bottlenecks" in the implementation of digital transformation were identified and measures were outlined for successfully solving the problems of further implementation of changes in the educational process, such as: strengthening work with the teaching staff on issues of identifying and implementing best practices in the educational process and taking advanced training courses in the field of digital literacy; introducing standardization for digital educational content within the institute; continuing to survey students and teachers to assess the changes being made; holding events to assess learning outcomes; continuing interaction with representatives of employers on issues of internships and the introduction of new elective disciplines related to future professional activities.
