Abstract
The digital economy and the rapidly developing digital society have an impact on the training of modern teachers and put forward requirements for the level of development of their digital literacy, digital skills and, ultimately, the level of digital culture. However, current regulatory documents do not always reflect the current requirements for teachers’ digital competencies and do not offer tools to measure their level of formation. The authors analyzed the existing frameworks of digital competencies and offered a model of the modern school teachers’ digital culture, its technological component, for its introduction into the educational process of teacher training. The article describes the elements of the model, normative documents and theoretical provisions that underlie it. The first stage of digital culture formation is considered in educational (fact-finding) practice for curricula formed according to FSES 3++. The objectives of the practice are formulated, competencies are selected from the educational standard, its content, thematic planning and planned results in the form of a decomposition of digital skills from the model of the digital culture of the teacher are determined. This type of practice is being implemented at the university for the first time and sets the task of forming the foundation of the model, namely, general user ICT competence (digital literacy).

Abstract

The need to automate the activities of educational organizations in the modern economy is substantiated in the article. The goals of the automation of the activities of a professional educational organization are determined. Possible automation options are proposed. The experience of developing applications successfully implemented at Barnaul State Pedagogical College is presented. Applications are presented for automating the activities of structural divisions of an educational organization: admissions committee, psychological center, educational unit, methodologists of distance courses, technical departments.

The experience of attracting students to the development of various IT projects with the aim of automating the activities of the educational organization in the framework of individual projects, term papers and final qualification works is considered. The work on attracting students to the development of various IT projects in order to automate the activities of an educational organization is systematic. In the process, students receive technical specifications, analyze project requirements, design, develop and test the product, implement and support it, thereby mastering general and professional competencies, and gain practical experience in project activities. As a result, students form the key competencies of the 21st century, which make up the 4С model: Critical Thinking, Creativity, Communication, Cooperation.

Abstract
The implementation of project management in the education system is impossible without the development of new types of competencies by teachers, which will allow the use of project management methods in professional activities. The article substantiates the need for training teachers who are competent both in managing student projects and in organizing their own project activities, as well as in project activities and project management of an educational institution. The article describes the experience of building competencies in the field of project management among students — future informatics teachers studying in the field of training 44.04.01 “Pedagogical Education” (master’s program “Information Technologies in Education”) at Nosov Magnitogorsk State Technical University. Based on the requirements of the professional standard 06.016 “Project Manager in the Field of Information Technologies”, the requirements for the competence of specialists in the field of project activities, etc., the author examined indicators for the formation of competency UK-2 “Able to manage a project at all stages of its life cycle” for academic discipline “Project Management in Education”. The methodology of forming competencies in the field of project management in education for masters of teacher education using the digital educational resource developed by the author is highlighted.

Abstract
The article is a description of the Power Query technology training methodology implemented within the framework of the Federal State Educational Standard for Higher Education 3++ taking into account professional standards in the direction of the bachelor’s program “Business Informatics”. The authors propose a set of laboratory works in the form of situational tasks and cases that allow to create professional competencies and labor functions of a future specialist (business analyst) as part of the development of the ETL process for processing data using Power Query technology. The use of situational tasks and cases allows to effectively implement the development of a set of professional competencies, which are elements of generalized labor functions, without tying the material in question specifically to any discipline. As part of the implementation of situational tasks and cases described in the article, bachelors not only learn to use the basic elements of Power Query technology, but also gain the skills and abilities associated with the application of the studied technology in performing standard professional tasks stipulated by a professional standard. The format for describing the methodology is presented in the form of the traditional “Key-by-Key” technology, widely used in obtaining professional IT competencies.

Abstract

The possibilities of neuropedagogy are analyzed for the development and implementation in educational practice of psychodiagnostic and psychocorrectional technologies that ensure the automation of the professional activity of teachers and psychologists in the modern ICT development environment. The organizational and pedagogical conditions for improving the efficiency of the learning system based on neural networks are determined: the selection and assignment of the main characteristics of the learner model and a clear formalization and construction of the ontology of the subject area. Based on the most important provisions of neuropedagogy, recommendations have been formulated to increase the effectiveness of training, including: 1) attention, 2) active interaction, 3) return by mistake and 4) consolidation (transition from a slow, conscious, effort-intensive thought process to a fast, unconscious, automatic mental work).

Innovative trends in the development of modern education are considered, which, first of all, include 1) research and promotion of information and communication technologies with innovative pedagogy, 2) promotion of competencies and skills in the field of ICT for teachers and schools. To increase the effectiveness of the educational process in accordance with the provisions of neuropedagogy, it is proposed to use the capabilities of “techno-social” engineering at three levels of professional development: gaining knowledge, mastering knowledge, creating knowledge.

Abstract
The article describes the selection criteria for electronic library systems and the requirements for them. The main problem of the systems that are offered for purchase to universities is analyzed and summarized. The criteria that electronic libraries must meet, the basic principles of building and developing own electronic library and information systems of universities are considered. The types of users who can work with the system, the content that the electronic library should contain, are described. Structural schemes of the electronic library system of the university and its elements are given. The schemes meet regulatory requirements and take into account the specifics of the work of higher educational institutions. The basic elements and modules of the electronic library system, their main functionality and content components are presented. The approach proposed by the author of the article will allow universities to develop and organize electronic library systems within their educational institution.
