Abstract

Implications of the main features of information society for education system are discussed in this article. Information (knowledge) society is a society based on the implementation of information and communication technologies in all areas of society, in which knowledge is a worthy product. It is also a society that imposes new ways of social organizing, with the capacity to set new roles to different systems, as well as redefining and objective evaluating of different types of resources, including human and other resources. Connections and mutual dependence between the main characteristics of information society and education inside information society are very complex. Education system potentially can become the key factor of social and economic development, today and in the future. One of the main preconditions for achieving of this role of education in the actual and future society is the broad and strategically well-designed process of implementation of information technologies in the process of education and teaching. This process can be more effective and successful if the state agencies take over responsibilities for its realization.
