Modern conditions of world development determine new directions of the educational paradigm in the digital society. Information technologies in education make it possible to develop new qualities of future specialists by organizing innovative methods of communication between a teacher and a student. While the traditional teaching format was focused on the direct interaction of the teacher and the student in the classroom, blended learning using digital resources now requires changes in the curriculum, structure, learning resources and teaching methods.
