This article examines the application of computer technologies in the educational process, which is intended to become a tool for ensuring the success of the New School. Computer technologies are considered as a systemic object that includes fundamental and essential categories: purpose, methodological foundations, content, forms, methods, and outcomes. Computer technologies create conditions not only for realizing opportunities for all participants in the pedagogical process but also significantly contribute to the expansion of their professional skills and competencies.
The application of computer technologies is driven by the necessity to prepare a new generation of learners at various educational levels who can effectively function in a digital environment, analyze their level of digital competence, identify the skills and knowledge necessary for successful performance in the context of digital transformation of education, and continuously seek ways to improve their digital literacy.
The aim of this article is to outline and substantiate the conceptual foundations and practical tools for the implementation of computer technologies within the modern education system. Enhancing the quality of educational activities should be achieved through the adoption of educational technologies focused on solving creative problems and developing relevant pedagogical experience for both learners and educators.
Accordingly, this article explores the features of applying computer technologies in educational institutions, their advantages, and challenges. Computer technologies are viewed as a means by which humans master the material world through socially organized activity, which includes three components: informational (scientific principles and justifications), material (tools and instruments), and social (professionals possessing the required skills).
The effectiveness and impact of computer technologies in educational activities depend not only on their technical capabilities but also on human interaction, organizational integration, and the skills of educators who implement and manage them. The specificity of applying computer technologies in educational institutions lies in the fact that educational tasks are executed more efficiently through computer technologies; computer technologies involve the design of the educational process, defining the structure and content of the learning and cognitive activities of both teachers and students; and computer technologies contribute to the personal development of both educators and learners.
As an example, the article analyzes the Canva platform, which has become one of the most popular solutions for achieving pedagogical goals by offering a wide range of functions specifically adapted to the needs of the educational process. Its versatility and user-friendly interface make it an indispensable assistant for teachers, instructors, and students across different educational levels.
