Portrait" of the receiver of distance learning services in the context of implementation of non-formal education of children
The goal of the research was to conduct a comprehensive study of children as receivers of distance learning services in order to organize in the future a student-centered educational process that contributes to the achievement of better results. In 2018, the authors conducted surveys among students at the Economic Internet School of the Vologda Scientific Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The characteristics of receivers of such services as demographic characteristics, level of motivation, status of personal development, communication and organizational features, were comprehensively studied. In addition, the effect of these factors on learning success was analyzed. Thus, the "portrait" of the student was compiled with the goal to effectively organize the educational process. Based on the results of the study, we make suggestions concerning the organization of distance learning for children.
