Prospects for cloud technologies in higher education
No full textInterconnectedness and interdependence in today's world, due to information flows, unite all people into a single whole. Even in the distant past, when humans were few and the world was largely divided, the populations of particular regions and countries slowly but surely interacted, and at some point humanity separated from the rest of the biosphere and created its own environment. Now that human activity has taken on a planetary scale, the question of our interaction has become acute. Collective interaction, linked with all the information that has gone before, describes all processes of an economic, technological, cultural, social and biological nature. Collective interaction is based on the transmission and multiplication of generalized information. The collective experience of the interaction of all people is transmitted to the next generation and spreads out, synchronizing the development of humanity on our planet. When a population was cut off from the bulk of humanity for a long period of time, its development slowed down. Mankind has always evolved as a global system, where in a single information space an inherently common and effective interaction is realized. Powerful global information systems are emerging, such as the Internet, which materializes the collective consciousness of mankind. An international education system is taking shape
The use of cloud computing in the organization of intelligent educational systems
No full textObjectively, there is a significant social problem - the systemic crisis of education. This problem is manifested by a number of socio-humanitarian, pedagogical and methodological and technological contradictions. Regarding the IT-industry, such contradictions are the impossibility of providing all potential users with educational information resources, and these resources should be provided "here" (anywhere in the world), "now" (at any time) and "all" (to the full extent required by the user)
Prospects for the use of social networks in education
No full textCurrently, the main task of the modern education system is to transform information services and Internet technologies into educational tools that allow getting qualitatively new learning outcomes. This requires changes in all areas of educational institutions, the active introduction of technology in the educational, teaching and methodological processes, and the formation of an information and educational environment.Modern rapid progress of Internet technologies creates the necessary basis for the emergence of new forms of organization of communication. Along with such popular means of communication as e-mail, instant messaging, video communication in real time, new ones have appeared - forums, blogs, and others
Opportunities offered by cloud technologies
No full textInformation technologies are changing all areas of life, including the learning process. Queues in libraries, blackboards with class schedules, journaling with grades have become irrelevant. The process of sharing and storing necessary learning materials has also undergone significant changes and is reflected in a qualitatively new way.В. Y. Bykov argues that the main conceptual principles of the strategy for further large-scale informatization of education and science in Ukraine should be based on the concept of cloud computing with a significant deepening of integration of industry efforts in this direction and the capabilities of the ICT-business based on the application of outsourcing mechanisms
Cloud computing specialist certification programs
No full textAll over the world, the demand for the implementation of cloud information infrastructure of enterprises, organizations, and institutions has increased. This trend is followed by educational institutions, this "cloud" trend is proved by the figures given by the research company IHS iSuppli (www.ihs.com): subscriptions to cloud services will continue to grow, increasing, according to estimates, from 625 million in 2013 to 1.3 billion users by 2017. The general, justified by practice, including pedagogy, interest in cloud technology is a kind of challenge for IT professionals. Participation in specialized trainings and courses allows students and teachers of computer specialties to increase the level of knowledge, expand the current set of skills in cloud computing technologies
Using Google Academy in the formation of information competencies of future teachers
No full textOne of the more important aspects of the formation of professional competencies of future teachers is the availability of conditions and means of implementation of this activity. Timely access to the latest educational and methodological materials is one of the necessary conditions for the formation of professional competencies, successfully provided today with the help of modern telecommunication technologies. Research on the expedient use of resources of the global Internet at the Department of Applied Mathematics and Informatics of the South Ukrainian National Pedagogical University named after K. D. Ushynsky has been conducted since 1996. But observations of the nature of the use of Internet resources by students of the Pedagogical University indicate that the independent search and selection of necessary data in the network is a more important component of the information competence of future teachers, including teachers of computer science. With the growing number of resources of the global Internet is also increasing the number of unscientific, unverified and biased data, framed through false information messages and unverified facts
Using cloud technologies to train future astronomy teachers
No full textThe development of astronomy as a science is characterized by the constant development of modern astronomical research facilities. More and more astronomical equipment is appearing that is controlled remotely. Under such conditions it is not necessary for a researcher to make observations directly, being physically in this or that observatory. It is all the more difficult for a subject teacher to organize this type of class from a purely technical point of view. As a variant, it is enough to have a complex of technical, firmware, program means, systems and the devices functioning on the basis of means of computer equipment, modern means and systems of information exchange providing automation of input, accumulation, storage, processing, transfer and operative management of the information. possibility to use a global information network. Therefore, the ability to work with Internet-technologies, telecommunications, the latest computer technologies becomes a necessary component in the professional training of a modern astronomy teacher
Glowscript is a cloud-based training tool for computer modeling of physical processes
No full textAmong the main requirements for teaching tools for computer modeling of physical processes for future teachers are the following:1) rapid prototyping of programs;2) object orientation;3) realistic 3D graphics;4) cross-platform.Implementation of these requirements in a cloud-oriented learning tool additionally creates conditions for:a) organization of collaborative work on the model;b) increase mobility of learning tools;c) simplification of administration, etc
Social network of teachers of academic discipline
No full textCloud technology creates fundamentally different opportunities for both communication and collaboration on a single product. Such a product in pedagogical activity can be a course of an academic discipline.Each course separately should contribute to the achievement of the dual purpose of higher education: 1) preparation for entry into the profession, 2) formation and development of the personality, its general, mental and moral development. In order to achieve this twofold goal, preparation for professional work must be conducted in such a way as to promote personal development. Moreover, it can be argued that in today's situation, when many university graduates do not work in their specialty and do not intend to do so, the task of general personal development comes to the fore
Ulteo OVD as a cloud-based learning environment
No full textRecently, there has been a rapid informatization of the learning process. Information and communication network services, such as Web 2.0 services, distance learning courses, communication on specific scientific topics in chat rooms and forums, webinars, and video conferences are actively used.The development of technology has led to the fact that one user has several devices PC classroom, PC home, laptop, netbook, smartphone. Mobile learning requires access to learning materials from the home network, the institution's local network, the library, Internet cafes, and other locations. This leads to data synchronization problems and many local copies of files on different devices
