Abstract

The article examines the role of technology in the evolution of higher education in Ukraine, with a particular focus on the challenges posed by global change. The author analyses the impact of digitalisation on the learning process, the organisation of educational activities and the interaction between students and teachers. The article discusses both the positive aspects of the introduction of digital tools, such as increased student engagement, curriculum flexibility and effective management of educational resources, and potential problems, such as technical difficulties, the need to improve the digital literacy of teachers and students, and the possible decline in the quality of education due to the use of low-quality teaching materials. The article is based on an empirical study of the introduction of digital technologies in higher education institutions, as well as on the results obtained in EU countries in 2022. The practical and theoretical implications of the study are discussed separately. This includes the development of recommendations for the integration of digital technologies into the educational process, as well as the development of educational theory in the context of digitalisation.
