Аnalysis of the effectiveness of digital tools in the learning process

Abstract

In today's conditions of rapid development of information technologies and active use of distance learning, the value of using digital tools in organizing the educational process is significantly increasing. The use of online platforms (services for organizing learning), video conferencing services, and tools for creating educational materials allows educators and students to increase the effectiveness of interaction between participants in the educational process, simplify the process of obtaining information (content of practical tasks and their deadlines, educational and supporting materials), and also ensure the flexibility of learning. Despite the widespread use of such technologies in modern education, the issue of assessing their convenience and effectiveness from the perspective of students remains important. The purpose of this study is to analyze the scientific literature and conduct a survey among students on the effectiveness of digital tools used in their learning process, as well as to identify key advantages and disadvantages based on the results of the survey of respondents. The paper considers the classification of digital tools according to their capabilities in education and analyzes their main capabilities. The empirical part of this study is based on the analysis of the results of a survey conducted among distance learning students who use digital educational services every day. During the study, the main possibilities of using platforms for organizing the educational process, services for data visualization and creating educational material, online meeting services, advantages and factors for choosing digital tools were assessed In parallel, the problems that arise when using digital tools among education seekers were analyzed. Special attention was paid to assessing the convenience of the interface, functionality and speed of access to the use of digital services. According to the results, the most popular tools used in the process of learning and creating presentations were identified, and the main factors that affect the effectiveness of their use were also identified. The key digital tools were platforms for learning management and services for conducting video conferences. The results obtained can be used to further improve the organization of the educational process and increase the effectiveness of the use of digital technologies in learning.
