https://doi.org/10.53360/2788-7995-2025-2(18)-11

Abstract

In the context of the rapid development of information and communication technologies, the digitalization of education is becoming an integral component of the modern educational environment. The transformation of traditional teaching methods towards flexible, personalized and interactive digital formats is a response to global challenges related to the availability of knowledge, the quality of teaching and the need for continuous professional development.

Online platforms play a key role in this process, providing technical solutions for distance learning, automation of educational processes and analysis of educational data. Such systems make it possible to scale learning, provide adaptive trajectories, track academic performance, and increase student engagement through the use of modern interfaces and personalization algorithms. This article provides an overview of the main technical requirements and standards for online learning platforms and LMS in the world and Kazakhstan. As an example of a global standard for online learning platforms, the National Online Learning Quality Standards, which were first developed in 2007 by the International K-12 Online Learning Association (iNACOL), are considered. From the perspective of Kazakhstan's experience, the article examines various orders and standards developed by authorized bodies responsible for the implementation and quality of online learning.

The article examines online learning platforms such as Coursera, Udemy, Khan Academy, Stepik and Arzamas, analyzes their compliance with National Online Learning Quality Standards and parameters: quality assurance, interoperability, personalization and adaptability of learning, accessibility and inclusivity, assessment and certification. Next, the article presents an analysis of compliance with the standards of the most popular open source learning management systems (LMS) – Moodle, OLAT, etc.

In conclusion, it is concluded that it is necessary to constantly develop new and adjust existing requirements and standards of online learning from the point of view of technical implementation.
