Abstract

The article deals with the psychological conditions that affect distance education in high school. The following methods were used: psychological and educational pedagogical experiment, test, observation, percentage trend analysis, Student's t-test. The independent variable of the experiment is the motivational exercises and the reflective reports of the distance courses, and the dependent variable is the professional competence of the research participants. 212 applicants to the Master's educational level participated in the study: 102 people in the control sample and 110 people in the experimental sample. The calculation of the Student's t-test confirmed the importance of all the transformations detected. The study demonstrates the importance of the psychological conditions created to improve the effectiveness of distance education. The results of the study can be used as a basis for specialized psychological training programs for teachers who teach distance education courses. Other perspectives for research on the problem are to study the impact of the psychological state of teachers on the effectiveness of distance education, as well as to compare the results of the introduction of certain psychological conditions in traditional and distance education.
