Онлайн-образование и трансформация роли студента

Тhis article attempts to analyze the influence of online education on the social role of a student in the context of changing the process of his socialization. The authors argue that the role of teachers and students as agents of socialization intensifies in Russian higher education in times of uncertainty and mistrust of social institutions. The social role of students is presented by the authors as one of the many roles that a person can play in life, and it is argued that moral and ethical guidelines are learned during studentships are socially useful and have a lasting positive effect on future social interactions of individuals. The role of the teaching staff as the main agent of socialization of students and initiators in the university environment is considered, and the role of the student sphere in the process of socialization, building horizontal connections and establishing useful dating is analyzed. It is concluded that the effectiveness of students' socialization depends on the density of contact with the agents described above, and the reduction of this contact creates obstacles to the assimilation of students' in the university. The authors base their conclusion on the fact that the Russian higher education, which is the heir to the Soviet one, is self-reproducing by initiating students into the university environment through live contact communication, which will be significantly reduced with the widespread introduction of online education. It is concluded that an obstacle to well-established socialization practices can significantly change the essence of the student's social role for the worse, since the very concept of online education, distance and mediocrity contradicts the main pillars of Russian higher education.
