Abstract

From the standpoint of the general philosophical idea of the contradictory nature of development, the idea of the information space and its impact on the educational process in the context of digitalization is investigated. An important feature established by digitalization in the relationship between the information space and the educational process has been set up. It is shown how the information space in the course of adaptation to digital realities transforms the direction of change into virtual space. The many-sided and multifaceted influence of digitalization on the educational process, including some psychological characteristics of students’ perception, is emphasized. This article traces the influence of the updated information space on the deep processes of the human psyche, reorienting it from ideas inherent in the traditionally understood common sense of the possibility and reality, past and future, on the principles of virtual reality. A new problematic tendency is revealed, which unexpectedly appeared in the educational processA new problematic tendency is revealed, which unexpectedly appeared in the educational process. It is caused by the diffusion of professional criteria required by the specialist, and, in this regard, the author made the necessary clarification of that part of it that most closely interacts with the educational process. Based on the fact of the information space transformation, the necessary clarification of that part of it that most closely interacts with the educational process has been made. Attention is focused on the fundamental difference between the electronic text and ordinary graphic. The electronic version can convey the encoded meaning not only in graphic terms, but, after necessary transformations, and in sound. In accordance with the accepted methodology to express the development process in its inconsistency, the article notes the positive and negative trends of the penetration of digitalization in the educational process. Among the positive ones is the possibility of a clear control of the acquired material; the responsibility arising from it for the implementation of the educational process and the habit of focusing only on oneself; the availability of diverse teaching methods focused on various students’ psychological types; increasing visibility and involvement in the educational process (when it becomes possible to virtually personally test it), etc. We attributed the following to negative ones: the already identified problems of decreasing oral counting and handwriting skills, the desire to solve problems, not by our thinking, but looking for an answer on the Internet; the formation of various, most often - gaming, dependencies. There has already been a clear danger of rapidly developing computer technology separation from legal and ethical regulations. In many countries, this danger is taken very seriously and resorted to such a protective measure as the creation of ethical codes for programmers.
