На пути к общественному развитию. Информационные технологии и ресурсы в высшем образовании

Abstract

The evolution of social relations at the present stage requires teachers
to work in the field of higher education to develop skills in using information
resources and digital technologies. The intensity of communication in the information sphere determines the effectiveness of not only the learning process
at the university, but also to a large extent, the secondary socialization of young
people. The article deals with the problem of using information resources and
digital technologies by teachers of Kazakh universities (on the example of the
Karaganda region). The article is based on the data of a sociological survey
(questionnaire survey) conducted at the universities of the Karaganda region of
Kazakhstan. The purpose of the study was to analyze the effectiveness of the
use of information technologies and resources in the process of studying at
universities and to develop practical recommendations to improve the effectiveness of training. According to the results of the study, it has been found out
that the development of the information and communication sphere in universities is influenced by "objective" and "subjective" factors. The first ones are connected with shortcomings in the technical support of the educational process,
the second ones– with some teachers’ lack of awareness of the modern Internet
resources in their professional field. The identified problems can be overcome
with the help of measures aimed at increasing teachers' awareness of available
information resources, increasing the speed of the Internet connection and general technical equipment of universities
