ON THE ISSUES OF DIGITALIZATION OF HIGHER EDUCATION IN KAZAKHSTAN
The relevance of the research is due to the active penetration of digital technologies into all spheres of
modern society. Business circles and governments of the countries of the world, including Kazakhstan, have realized the need
accelerating the processes of digitalization and digital transformation of the economy in order to achieve competitive
positions in the emerging digital space of the new world economy. The digital transformation of processes
and technologies in the economy, society and, of course, in education is a fact that has happened. The new reality
inexorably conquers entire spheres of life, makes privacy a ghost of the past, completely destroys statuses,
boundaries and distances between people, "compresses" time, makes almost any information available
for training, work, recreation. Digitalization creates conditions for access to education, optimization
administration and management, as well as the improvement of educational content. Moreover, digitalization
is increasingly becoming a driving factor in the socio-economic development of the country. The necessary competencies
are often acquired outside the walls of educational institutions, since educational programs often do not keep up with the
dynamics of technology. The teacher turns from a carrier of translated knowledge and skills into a navigator
who helps to navigate certain knowledge bases. All this requires an analytical approach to the study
such a process, conducting a scientific and methodological study of the implementation of the indicated changes. In
this study, topical issues are touched upon in connection with the constant reform of the Kazakh
higher education system.
Keywords: digitalization, informatization, higher education, innovation.
