5. Most important didactic principles of online courses (Summary
table)
Characteristic Characteristic’s description
Functionality Denotes a set of functions at various levels, - supporting
the training process in full.
Reliability This parameter characterizes the ease of administration in
the system and ease of content updates for existing
templates.
Stability Means the degree of stability of the system relative to
various modes and degrees of user activity.
Cost The cost of the system itself, and the cost of its
implementation, course development and support, the
presence or absence of restrictions on the number of
licenses for students.

6. Most important didactic principles of online courses (Summary
table Part 2)
Characteristic Characteristic’s description
Availability of funds for content development Built-in editor of educational content not only facilitates the
development of courses, but also allows to integrate in a single
view educational materials for various purposes
SCORM The SCORM standard is international basis for the exchange of
electronic courses and the lack of system support it decreases the
mobility and allows you to create portable courses.
Controlling knowledge system Allows online to assess the knowledge of students. Usually such a
system includes tests, assignments and control the activity of
trainees on the forums.
Control system of knowledge evaluation
System which would allow to evaluate the students ' knowledge in
automatic mode.

7. Most important didactic principles of online courses (Summary
table Part 3)
Characteristic Characteristic’s description
Multimedia Access When choosing a new system is necessary to ensure the
convenience of its use. This is an important parameter, because
the potential students will never use the technology, which
seems cumbersome or creates difficulties when navigating.
Modularity
In modern systems E-learning course could consist of a set of
modules or units of learning material that can be used in other
courses.
Access Trainees should not have barriers to access the curriculum
related to their location in time and space, as well as possible
factors
Multimedia The possibility of using as content is not only text, hypertext
and graphics, but also audio, video, gif and flash animation, 3D
graphics of different file formats.

8. Most important didactic principles of online courses (Summary
table Part 4)
Characteristic Characteristic’s description
Scalability and extensibility The possibility of an extension as audience, the students in the
distance learning system (DLS) and adding programs and
courses teaching and education.
Prospects for the development of the platform DLS needs to be a growing environment, must get a new,
improved version of the system with the support of new
technologies, standards and tools.
Cross-platform at the level of DLS Ideally, the distance learning system should not be tied to any
operating system or environment, such as at the server level
and at the level of the client machines.
Quality of technical support The ability to support a healthy, stable DLS, fix bugs and
vulnerabilities as with experts of the developer of DLS, and
experts of their own support organization.

9. Most important didactic principles of online courses (Summary
table Part 5)
Characteristic Characteristic’s description
Cross-platform on the level of online services The use of different platforms for different types of learning
challenges with the aim of increasing the motivation of students
Autonomy of the elements of the distance learning course (AEDC) Each element of the cross-platform model performs its specific
function and enables students of different learning objectives, but
sometimes we need the same task to its application in another course,
and therefore autonomy plays an important role in distance education.

10. Definition of cross-platform learning model
Cross-platform learning model – is a model of the distance learning
course, where each significant part is its online service and are all
connected to other elements through the inside of the text hyperlinks
in HTML5.Определение из методики:
Cross-platform learning model – is a model of learning based on the
use of a single learning management system (LMS) that combines
integrated various social services 2.0, didactic with certain properties
and performing certain didactic function.
