Analysis of the current state of research and development in the construction of information and educational environments of higher educational institutions

Introduction: the authors of the article set the goal of analyzing the solution of the problem of informatization of education in foreign educational institutions and to compare the material, technical, educational and organizational capabilities of Russian and foreign universities in the development of the information educational environment as a factor in the success of professional education. Materials and methods: the study was carried out on the basis of scientific and pedagogical methods of analysis, comparative generalization and systematization of theoretical and empirical sources that determine the necessary objectivity and heuristicity of the conclusions. Results: the authors concluded that the development of the information educational environment both in Russia and abroad is an important factor in the success of education: both secondary and professional. An increase in the number of students enrolled in individual curricula, a decrease in classroom hours in favor of hours for independent work of students, an increase in the curriculum of the percentage of disciplines of choice, the integration of distance learning, etc. requires the development of new tools to solve these problems and one of the effective tools is the educational information environment of the school. Analyzing the information environments of Russian and foreign universities, the authors come to the conclusion that combining separate informatization tools used in various areas of an educational institution’s activity into a single information educational environment allows us to solve two main problems that currently concern the pedagogical community: learning efficiency and effective organization learning process Discussion and Conclusions: the authors believe that the translation of the content and technologies of the educational process to modern electronic media can be carried out only if the achievements of pedagogical science and its methodology are preserved as the fundamental basis for designing modern educational technologies using information technologies. The conceptual basis is that the development of the content of the information educational environment does not involve the scanning of educational material, but the programming of interaction between the subjects of the educational process, taking into account the regularities of the educational and cognitive activity.
