Description
Summary:The research goal is to consider the process of developing the information competence of teachers in rural schools in Yakutia required for remote teaching during the pandemic. The main research methods are the method of expert assessments and statistical processing of quantitative research results. Over 600 teachers from 32 uluses of the republic took part in the experiment and did the professional development courses. The overwhelming majority of schools in Yakutia are rural (over 70%), since they are located in rural settlements. The authors devised the teaching methodology for increasing the information competence of teachers in rural schools. The proposed approach implies the continuity of professional development courses. The survey conducted among teachers conclusively demonstrates the need to take into account the specifics of the educational environment of rural schools while developing the information competence of teachers during the pandemic.
