Abstract

The modern labor market is characterized by growing requirements for university graduates. Among these requirements are the improvement of the quality of professional training of specialists, the formation of "lifelong learning" skills, etc. Continuous updating of training courses, formation of future specialists' ability to make effective decisions in the "information boom" conditions are also relevant. Therefore, during the last time, the trend towards the introduction of "digital learning" was followed in the education system: the speakers of the education industry declared face-to-face classes in favor of independent remote learning using computer / network technologies [1]. As follows from the available statistics [2], 39 % of US university students preferred distance learning in 2022 (Fig. 1); additionally, the U.S. distance learning market is estimated to be worth $12.81 billion between 2020 and 2024.
