E-Education in Foreign Higher Education Institutions: Criteria and Assessments

Abstract

E-education is characterized by dynamic development all over the world, and therefore the mechanisms for assessing its quality do not have time to adapt to the current state in the educational environment. This study focuses on the experience of ensuring the quality of e-education in higher education institutions in Europe and Latin America. The article highlights the approaches that ensure the quality of e-education, as well as an analysis of the policy of universities involved in this area. It was revealed that external agencies for ensuring the quality of education occupy an important position as a supervisory authority in foreign higher education institutions. The process of developing a quality assurance system is characterized by openness and dynamism, therefore it needs to be integrated into the internationalization of education programs and specifically into e-learning. Assessment of the quality of education involves problematic issues, therefore, this phenomenon should be comprehensively investigated.
