The Internet and Future Teachers of Yakutia: Analysis of Research Results for the Period from 2011 to 2015

Background/Objectives: The study is focused on examination of the use of information technologies and the Internet in schools and higher educational institutions of Yakutia in accordance with the policy of education informatization in Russia. Methods/Statistical Analysis: For this purpose, a questionnaire has been elaborated. The survey method includes a set of questions addressed to the respondent. This survey technique enables to determine the reasons of the respondents' motivation for the use of the Internet, as well as to identify opportunities of using new educational technologies in schools, universities and institutions of Yakutia. Findings: Unlike existing modern education informatization concepts, the proposed approach allows determining the motives of the Internet use by students in the regional high school. The survey results show that an important aspect of the Internet use in educational activities consists in the following: Its use in monitoring and evaluation of the quality of education; its integration in teaching and learning processes; study of the various impacts on the health and behavior of students; identification of priority areas that most closely correspond to resources, infrastructure and the needs of the higher education institution. It should be noted that the survey questionnaire is easy to use; the retrieval of necessary indicators and indices presents no problems. This gives theoretical grounds for use of the Internet when performing educational and cognitive tasks in conditions of education globalization and informatization. Future teachers shall professionally and technologically provide all the possibilities of new technologies in the educational process. Applications/Improvements: The study allowed solving the problems and paying special attention to the education workers to ensure the safe use of the Internet in the educational process. The work has been introduced at the M. K. Ammosov North-Eastern Federal University.
