students and educators with the opportunity to apply
their large resources to achieve certain goals. Both the
collective learning process and the self-learning process
based on the use of modern IT has become much more
productive.
Infocommunication technologies can be divided
into two types - online and offline. Online technologies
allow the exchange of materials in real time, that is, the
message or information that was sent by the user, having
reached the addressee, is immediately sent to the ap-
propriate output device. Using offline technologies, the
achieved information is stored on the recipient's device.
And then the recipient will be able to open them using
special programs at a convenient time for him. In con-
trast to the method where the dialogue is possible only
in real time (online), in distance learning the dialogue
can also continue in a delayed way (offline). A signifi-
cant advantage of offline technologies is that they are
less demanding both on the capabilities of the computer
and on the speed of communication lines. Offline tech-
nologies can be used even when connected to the Internet
on dial-up lines (in the absence of a continuous connec-
tion to the Internet).
Email, mailing lists, and messenger-like messaging
programs are among this type of technology. By send-
ing messages, educational information and questions by
mail, it is possible to organize a dialogue between the
teacher and students. Thanks to this, a joint discussion and
review of the course is carried out. These technologies
facilitate interaction between various devices connected
to the World Wide Web.
Also one of the important advantages of offline
technology is a diverse selection of software for inter-
acting with email and teleconferencing. Modern pro-
grams allow you to send messages using hypertext
(i.e., using hyperlinks, fonts and deductions of text
fragments of various colors, graphics attachments, etc.).
In addition, a file of any format can be attached to a letter,
and thanks to this, you can send, for example, docu-
ments in MS Word format. The effectiveness of offline
technologies is demonstrated in the creation of current
consultations, checks based on control and independent
works that were reviewed by the teacher "manually".
Online information technologies, first of all, a dia-
logue with the help of which it is possible to exchange
text messages through the World Wide Web in real
time. In its simplest form, a "conversation" occurs be-
tween two users. A group conversation requires a con-
nection to a special server - an IRC (Internet Relay
Chat) server. In this case, in the course of work,
the user will see the name of the sender of the message
on the screen of his device. There is a wide choice of
various programs for such dialogues, for example,
Whatsapp or Telegram. Online technologies are most
effective when organizing online lectures and seminars,
as well as when consulting different groups [1].
Modern multimedia technologies contribute to
a brighter and more interesting learning process at a
distance. IT multimedia tools allow you to use all kinds
of educational materials, such as text, online presenta-
tions, graphics, tables, audio and video recordings,
including graphic animations in interactive mode.
Despite the small age of distance learning, this
method of education has great prospects. Unlike the
standard method of transmitting the necessary infor-
mation to students via the Internet, a variety of elec-
tronic methodological and educational aids should be
developed, thanks to which students will be able to
independently learn and gain knowledge, as well as
improve their individual skills.
In distance learning using the Internet, when creating
electronic methodological and educational aids, it is
necessary to pay attention not only to their content,
but also to interactive tools and methods with which
students can learn with great interest much more
creatively, independently.
