Digitalization of education and the problem of continuity

Abstract

The trends in the modern educational process related to digitalization, the spread of information and communication technologies, the translation of information into the language of computer programming, the use of graphic visualization techniques, computer graphics are considered. There is a tendency to increase the methodological developments prepared by the pedagogical community, dedicated to techniques, optimization of the translation of a large amount of information. The formation of an open digital educational environment is characterized as a factor of external management of the formation of learning youth. It is emphasized that this trend only partially solves the problem of professional development of young people. It is proved that continuity is possible if translation and inheritance are considered as complementary types of human activity. Inheritance, however, is a multi-level process of human interaction with the surrounding world, affecting the structures of the unconscious, and is meaningful in connection with the implementation of external activities by a person according to the norms and standards set by culture. Such a specific nature of the language makes us doubt the universal possibilities of digitizing the knowledge to be assimilated.
