Inconsistency in Information Resources of Modern Education

Abstract

The article investigates the problem of the ambiguous influence of modern information technologies on education. The authors analyse not only the positive effects of computerisation. They also identify the problems faced by the subjects of the educational process under the influence of digitalisa-tion. As outlined in the article, uncontrolled information flows prevent stu-dents from forming the holistic worldview. The dominance of information technologies in education also leads to the transformation of subject-object relations in the process of cognition. The teacher, whose role is changed sig-nificantly, acts more frequently as a coordinator. The usage of gadgets in the educational process provides an opportunity to receive an education at a dis-tance. However, the widespread use of distance learning technologies leads to a decline in the quality of educational services. This resulted from the need to develop new methods. In addition, the constant updating of infor-mation technologies does not allow the teacher to develop a sustainable methodology for teaching their subject. The authors prove that the active use of digital technologies in the information society implies the harmonious combination of traditional and modern information technologies. This fully applies to the modern Russian education system, which is in an intermediate state between traditional pedagogical methods and modern computer tech-nologies. As the authors point out, the problem is to find the optimal educa-tional option for the formation of a harmonious global-regional educational system. It should not only include all the advantages of the latest information technologies, but also preserve all the positive achievements of great practi-tioner-teachers and scientists.
