Abstract

The purpose of the article is to find out the features of the process of virtualization of education as a phenomenon of modern culture. The research methodology. The fulfillment of the research purpose involved the use of the phenomenological approach and the method of content analysis of humanitarian texts, which allowed for revealing the key precedents of virtual reality in the field of education in the culturological aspect. The scientific novelty of the work consists in an attempt of general theoretical consideration of virtualization of education as an institution of culture and a translator of socio-cultural experience. Conclusions. Modern information technology plays an essential role in the process of virtualization of the educational space. For each of the subjects of educational interaction, namely the state, civil society, family and man, the status of the virtual educational space is realized at different rates and therefore often has different content. Virtualization is a socio-cultural phenomenon that is shaping and evolving under the influence of technical innovation and the information and technological revolution. As an innovative phenomenon, socio-cultural virtualization systematically transforms the socio-cultural environment. In its essential aspects, virtualization of the society must be combined with the progress of its cultural understanding, spiritual culture, and development of social intelligence.
