ROLE OF DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES IN THE EDUCATION SYSTEM
Abstract
The article addresses one of the urgent problems - transformation of higher education in the conditions of digitalization. The
article discusses the main directions of digital transformation, which radically changes the economy, education and lifestyle in
general. It’s been shown that digital technologies are necessary for the educational process but not sufficient for increasing the

management, the increase in the number of workplaces where skills are required to set tasks and formalize methods for solving
them – all these factors makes it necessary to redefine traditional educational results during the digital transformation of
education.

new skills. According to the forecast of Synergy University, in
a couple of years, new professions will be in demand on the
market, such as a developer of educational trajectories, a tutor
or a virtual reality architect.
The labor market requires a qualitatively different
content for the training of graduates. Digitalization affects not
only the content of education, but also its organization [1].
These processes have mixed implications for the positioning
of both universities and faculty. The necessary competencies
are often acquired outside the walls of educational institutions,
since educational programs often do not keep pace with the
dynamics of technology development. The teacher from the
bearer of the transferred knowledge and skills turns into a
navigator who helps to navigate the knowledge bases. All
these issues are especially acute in connection with the reform
of the Russian higher education system. The necessary
optimization is replaced by a simple reduction in the number
of universities and their financial support. The assessment of
the content of scientific activity is replaced by the formal
