The author considers a question of why this discipline is actual for future teachers and what competences it helps them to develop. Laboratory researches on this rate are considered as the main form of work, and it is offered to organize them so that trainees independently got necessary theoretical knowledge and purchased practical skills within this discipline. In article the question of that, as well as what information and communication technologies is considered to use in training in order that undergraduates not only have gained an impression how to apply ICT in teaching and educational process, but also have gained practical experience in using these technologies.The author offers a certain sequence of training master undergraduates, where laboratory researches are grouped in several cycles and consider which knowledge and skills the students will gain at each stage.

The article discusses the relevance of data visualization, based on improving the efficiency of the perception of the material to make the right professional solutions. author of the study describes the steps for creating verbal and graphic materials multipage text documents on the example of the analysis and structuring of the information provided in the Development Strategy of the State Autonomous Educational Institution “Moscow City Pedagogical University” for the period until 2020, including:setting a goal, the definition of the main directions of the rendered objects , the study of verbal material, familiarity with previously established visualized examples, creating schematic drawings, search and selection of resources, creation of visualization, analysis work. It is also justified by the need for each stage, and provides recommendations for the implementation of visualized ideas. Particular attention is paid to the isolation and mapping of key sites such as the logo of the educational institution, full name, infrastructure, etc. The paper sets out the basic approach to the visualization of documents containing large amounts of text data, among which are highlighted: purposeful, analytical, creative, search, implementation-creative, reflective. We give the visualization of multi-page document University Development Strategy in the form of three logically and stylistically related illustrations with a description placed in these facilities.

One of the fastest growing educational facilities is an online training. it is aimed at the remote receive quality knowledge in different subjects and disciplines. Given the prospects for the development of teaching aids, we have considered the possibility of its integration into the traditional school systems. In particular, we have demonstrated the implementation of this method of learning through project- based learning - students create educational materials that will be posted on the Internet.In the article the different software tools were analyzed, allowing to implement all stages of the project development with the help of cloud computing, that is, providing a collaborative and interactive way to work on the project. There are online boards for the initial stages of project development, software for management and structured storage of documents, as well as platforms that enable aesthetically and creatively presentation of the project.Given the metasubject nature of topology, the integrative component of a method of projects, we have created an online tutorial on “A method of solving mazes.” Which answers our goal - to investigate the possibility of forming metasubject knowledge by studying the topological elements in the school course.

In article some questions of integration of training methods to foreign languages using means of informatization of education are considered.The attention that application of information technologies in teaching foreign languages integrally supplements is focused and expands possibilities of an effective solution of didactic tasks in case of creation of modern pedagogical models and is a certain factor of integration of methods and forms of education.

Creative use of the potential of modern information and communication technologies for solving pedagogical, educational and training tasks is now an urgent problem of education. It is already impossible to isolate pupils from the modern means of communication (smartphones, tablets, etc.). The objective of a teacher to show how you can use the gadgets for educational purposes. Interest in their use as a source of useful information. Learn to evaluate and select information sources on various criteria: reliability, availability, adequacy and completeness of the information, response rate, etc. Theseand other skills to work with information are key in our rapidly changing world, and are part of the concept of information culture of the modern man. This article describes the use of educational technology of QR-codes to address these issues, as well as justification its effectiveness. The intellectual quest, which is the embodiment of the above ideas, combines the dynamism and kindness, interest and attentiveness, ability to work in a team and contribute to the common cause; aimed at the development of tolerance, inquisitiveness, activity, courtesy, accuracy, attention and thinking; as well as to broaden their horizons and the formation of information culture of schoolboys.

The article introduces the basic definitions and differences between Services in the cloud, cloud services, cloud applications and cloud storage data. The basic cloud types that can be used on the Internet and the LAN of educational organization (Intranet). Possibilities of use of cloud services to improve of effective management at educational organization of internal and external communications of educational organizations, as well as to ensure joint work of employees of the educational organization.A list of core competencies an employee of an educational organization, which will be developed for use in the activity of cloud services and cloud applications. We describe the positive aspects of the use of cloud services and cloud-based technologies for the management of the educational institution, identifies possible risks of using cloud technologies, presents options for the use of cloud technology over the Internet and the Intranet network. We present a list of software included with every category of cloud services described types: storage and file synchronization, storage of bookmarks and notes, time management, software applications. At the article is introduced the basic definition and classification of cloud services, offered examples of methodical use of cloud services in the management of the educational organization.

The article reviews the main conceptual and legal provisions and organizational activities carried out in the education system of the Russian Federation in order to introduce the new educational programs of applied bachelor degree. The problem of effective professionalization of higher education is extremely relevant due to the serious problems that Russian higher education currently faces. One of such problems is the lack of practical suitability of Bachelor graduates to the conditions and requirements of the actual labor. Responding to this problem, in Russia, as in most developed countries, there is a way to improve the professionalisation in the first stage of higher education - to divide the educational program of Bachelor into “academic” or “general” and “applied” or “professional”. The same issue is relevant to the different qualifications and assigns.The review of the experience of educational reforms in the leading European countries, where during the last 15-20 years some large-scale reforms with a view to the professionalization of higher education were carried out. It is important, that the essence of these reforms underlined the general problem of rapid modernization of vocational training structure and content of educational programs in accordance with labor market demands and socially important requests of individual regions and the country in common. The analysis of the success of the reforms carried out in different countries, shows that it is common for all to establish a close relationship of employers and educational institutions at a sufficiently broad autonomy to the last, in cooperation with the state regulation of educational activities.This organic combination of theoretical and practical components of the secondary and higher vocational education programs of applied bachelor degree programs is to become the basis of the formation process of a new professional category, mostly demanded by the labor market.
