metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The article, based on the analysis of publications related to digitalization of higher education,
  identified four trends associated with the introduction of digital technologies and tools in the
  educational process: the formation of a model of blended learning, the transition to online education,
  creating a virtual (digital) educational environment, and changing the approach to management
  of educational organizations. These trends are interconnected, however, each of them
  has a specific impact on the higher education institution, which is illustrated. On the one hand,
  digitalization promotes openness, flexibility of education, increased student engagement in the
  learning process, and the development of a network model of interaction between universities.
  On the other hand, it leads to the creation of a new educational situation and the inclusion
  of new actors in the education system, which changes the configuration of relations between
  the main participants. Digitalization, requiring appropriate adaptation, introduces significant
  changes in the roles of teachers and students in the learning process. The transition to online
  education and the creation of a virtual educational environment give rise to the need for changing
  the management of an educational organization. And if these changes do not take place,
  digitalization can lead to negative effects. The author justifies the need to systematize the social
  effects of digitalization of higher education and develops a research design for studying the social
  risks of transformation of the higher education institution under the influence of digitalization.
  The study is based on the strategy of a case study. A neo-institutional approach, emphasizing
  the cultural and cognitive aspect of the institute’s interpretation, was proposed as the methodological
  basis for the study. At the same time, the higher education institute is considered in the
  context of the social institute concept proposed by P. Berger and T. Lukman.
