EVALUATION OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF ELECTRONIC EDUCATIONAL PUBLICATION USAGE IN THE LEARNING PROCESS OF OPERATORS OF ROBOTIC COMPLEXES

The article considers materials concerning the methodology of scientific and educational experiments aimed at investigation of effectiveness of distance learning for operators of robotic complexes using electronic educational publications. The results of social progress are now concentrated mainly in the informational sphere and the creation of mass continuous self-learning systems is becoming popular. In addition, there is necessary to search for effective methods of such training, on the one hand, and to eliminate harmful techniques, on the other. The article presents the provisions concerning the basis of scientific and educational experiment on assessing the effectiveness of application of electronic educational publication. It is shown that the evaluation of distance learning effectiveness is based on statistical processing of the test results of the students involved in the experiment using nonparametric methods by means of the two-sample Wilcoxon rank sum test. There are concluded conditions in which it is advisable and effective or undesirable to use distance learning using electronic educational publications.
