Abstract

Relevance. The relevance of investigating web resources for learning in a globalised world in an open educational environment is due to the need to understand modern technical mechanisms involved in the educational process, their achievements and impact on learning.

Purpose. The purpose of this study was to form an idea about the educational platforms of Kazakhstan and the world in general, examine the impact of the platforms under consideration on the educational process during the student’s independent work.

Methodology. The following methods were used in a complex to solve the tasks and to implement the purpose of the study: analytical-synthetic, comparative, graphical, and statistical.

Results. In this study, the following educational resources were compared: Duolingo, Samsung Global Goals, Google Classroom, AnkiDroid Flashcards, Coursera, TED-Ed, EdApp. They were considered in terms of the following parameters: interface and technical capabilities, availability of scientific materials, functionality and scope of application, achievements when used in the course of independent work. The rating of open educational resources is presented in tabular form according to the Google Play Store for the following countries: Kazakhstan, Great Britain, France, USA, Germany, Italy, Spain, Canada, Mexico, Japan, Egypt, and Malaysia. The platforms for teaching students that are actively gaining popularity were also considered: Coursera, TED-Ed, EdApp, Udemy, WizIQ, Blackboard Learn.

Conclusions. This study allows for an examination of the modern educational paradigm by comparing different countries worldwide. It highlights the development of Internet technologies in the face of globalisation challenges and provides insights into the main strategies for enhancing the effectiveness of the educational process through the implementation of Internet technologies and new methodological innovations.

Keywords: web resource; online training; conventional methods; courses; professional and communicative competence
