Abstract

The purpose of the study is to provide a theoretical basis for distance learning and to verify experimentally the coaches’ attitude to this method of learning in higher education institutions. Theoretical analysis of foreign science sources showed that the definition “distance learning (education)” should be understood as a space – time distance of the learning process; the use of various facilities of educational information exchange, that provide the two-way communication between the participants of the learning process. Experimental analysis was in the form of online quiz of coaches in the higher education institutions in Ukraine. Its issue was: “Distance learning as coaches see it in the conditions of limited educational space”. The area of discussion for coaches that use distance learning methods for professional training of students are the following: insufficient technical support of the students to use training opportunities of distance learning; limited Internet access; lack of free place on Google disk; insufficient organization of students’ activities; insufficient students’ motivation; insufficient motivation of the coaches themselves to use distance learning methods; lack of opportunities to train coaches for distance learning; poor quality Internet; internet overloading. In future the authors see the need to consider the problem of improving the levels of digital literacy of coaches and students of higher education institutions.
