Abstract

The purpose of the article is to characterize innovative and cultural transformations of the educational environment on the principles of digitalization and the existing barriers. The objectives of the study were to find out the use of digital tools and to outline the barriers hindering their implementation; to describe the efficient algorithm of implementation of innovative and cultural transformations. Within the framework of research, one analyzed 31 works devoted to the problems of transformations of educational environment and its digitalization from 2018 to 2022. As a result, theoretical research is linked to 5 articles. 4 articles described the prospects of future development of education under digital changes, and 6 studies were oriented towards the impact of COVID on digitalization. Also, the course of transformations in developed (USA, Finland, Norway, and Turkey) and developing countries (Ukraine, Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Thailand, China) was analyzed. A systematic literature review and synthesis of conceptual research results on the problem were used. The case study to describe the peculiarities of implementation of digital technologies and to identify barriers of traditional learning within the educational process was carried out. To collect and process the data an interviewing, a pedagogical observation, an in-depth review, an open-ended survey, and methods of statistical analysis were used. The results evaluated that all the participants of the survey consider digitalization an effective innovative transformation and both teachers and learners have similar preference in using various digital tools. Also, the study revealed that teachers and learners face a number of barriers that complicate the educational process. To enhance the efficiency of educational environment and to achieve pedagogical intentions one outlined the measures to remove the barriers identified. The study showed that a barrier-free digital educational environment could enhance the efficiency of education of the future where learners will be prepared to various challenges of information society.
