Development of information and digital technologies in higher education institutions

The relevance of the study was due to the need to implement and develop digital tools and systems for any specialties, in particular the transport industry and logistics, professional education in labour protection, and technological education. The purpose of the article was to substantiate the planning of the development of information and digital technologies in higher education institutions. In the research process, general scientific and pedagogical research methods were used: theoretical analysis (comparative, systemic, analytical-synthetic, inductive, deductive) to substantiate the strategic plan for the development of information and digital technologies in higher education institutions; synthesis (general scientific, intersectoral, interdisciplinary) to substantiate the unity of interconnected tools and systems in higher education institutions, formulation of a conclusion; classification, systematisation, generalisation with the aim of generalising methods, electronic resources, interactive tools, platforms, etc. The article was devoted to the problem of development of information and digital technologies in higher education institutions. The relevance and necessity of developing information and digital technologies were substantiated to determine: planning, implementation and development of digital tools and systems; steps to modernise curricula; training teachers in digital skills; creation of electronic resources for learning. A graph of the development of information and digital technologies in higher education institutions was developed. The specific directions of its development were substantiated: needs analysis, improving the level of qualification of scientific and pedagogical staff, modernisation of curricula, creation of electronic resources, implementation of analytics systems, ensuring access, security and confidentiality, support and development, evaluation and optimisation. The elements of the development of information and digital technologies were substantiated. The practical significance of this work is to determine the planning of the development of information and digital technologies in higher education institutions in the relevant areas, which allowed to predict the increase in the professional development of scientific and pedagogical workers, to provide high-quality education to students and trainees in difficult conditions
