Digital Society: New Challenges for Education

Abstract

The world has entered a new phase of development – the era of digital society. Under the influence of a new round of technological progress, the mechanisms and practices of the world order, as well as equipment and technologies, are changing. The range of innovations today is not limited to one or two industries; changes cover almost everything – telecommunications, information and communication sectors, nanotechnology, space, bioengineering, robotics, etc. The research aims to study the processes of changing the paradigm of social development under the influence of the formation of a digital society. The article analyzes the concept of "digital society," shows how the tools of the digital economy are used to justify a paradigm shift in social development for the modern generation. The research methodology is based on a systematic and structural-functional approach. Also, methods of sociological survey and statistical processing of information were used. As a result of the analysis, plans to the definition of the digital economy are formulated, the stages of development of digital society are presented, the trajectories of technological changes in the digital era are identified, and problems that inhibit the digitalization process are formulated.

Development and Validation of an Evaluation Toolkit to Appraise eLearning Courses in Higher Education: A Pilot Study

“…While digitalization has brought tremendous benefits to our economy and society by increasing efficiency and productivity, and making our lives more convenient, it has also brought several challenges, such as the digital divide and the unjust impact on education. The transition from a predominantly traditional or teacher-centred pedagogy to a learnercentred pedagogy is a long and slow process, and depends on policy or teaching culture, and the interest of education sectors or universities to invest in digital technologies, and the knowledge and willingness of teachers to adopt the new teaching paradigm [22,23].

Dünyanın her yerindeki araştırmacılar için bilimsel bir ilgi konusu olan dijitalleşme (Gapsalamov, Akhmetshin, Bochkareva & Vasilev, 2020) tüm bilgi türlerinin (metinler, sesler, görseller, video ve çeşitli kaynaklardan gelen diğer veriler) dijital dile İsmail EROL & Semih ÇAYAK [360] dönüştürülmesidir (Machekhina, 2017). İşte bu sebeple dijital teknolojiler, artık günlük hayata istikrarlı bir şekilde bütünleşmiş yeni bir bilgi altyapısının parçasıdır.…”

“…Tüm alan paydaşlarının kabul ettiği üzere dünyada küresel ekosistemi kökten değiştiren dijitalleşme alanındaki önemli gelişmeler son on yıla damgasını vurmuştur. Bunlar arasında iletilen ve tüketilen bilgi hacminde keskin bir artış, iletişim ve telekomünikasyon alanında sürekli yenilikler ve internet teknolojilerinin dünya nüfusunun büyük çoğunluğunun yaşamına bütünleşmesi gelmektedir (Gapsalamov, Akhmetshin, Bochkareva & Vasilev, 2020). Eğitim sisteminden örnek verilecek olursak artık öğretmenlerin hemen hemen tümü ders planlarını internet üzerinden araştırmakta ve temin etmekte, öğrenciler ödevlerini sosyal medya, internet, mobil kaynaklar vb.…”
