Role of culture concerning information technics and technologies at higher school

Abstract

Purpose of the article is to justify the role of culture in overcoming the contradictions between man and infor- mation technologies in the educational activities of higher education in the context of their convergence. Methodology. The research methodology includes philosophical provisions on the unity and struggle of opposites as a source of devel- opment; historical, information, cybernetic, culturological, system approaches in the analysis of the relationship between a person and information technologies, analysis of trends in the infosphere and the study of literary sources. Scientific novelty consists in revealing the inconsistency of the expansion of information technologies in the educational process of higher education. It is shown how general provisions about the potential threats of technological progress are re- vealed in modern educational practice. The novelty contains a requirement on the need to achieve a balance between the technical and humanitarian components of scholarly activity as opposed to its further technological development. The conceptual basis for producing such a balance is to consider culture, understood in the spirit of A. Schweitzer as a mani- festation of love for life, reverence for life. The mentioned factors leave room for human initiative, consistent with the goal of higher education. Conclusions. The role of culture in the use of information technique and technologies at higher school is to strive for a balance between man and technology, the preservation of man, his freedom in the information and technological environment.
