Abstract
What if the coronavirus pandemic happened only 30 years earlier? In the early nineties of the last century in these areas, Internet communication was almost unknown, and creating infrastructure conditions for its fast development required extremely expensive investments. The high level of IT development at the time of the outbreak of the corona pandemic contributed to greatly mitigate its consequences, not only in industry, but also in areas such as education, healthcare, software companies and others. If there was no high level of IT development, during the corona-pandemic there would be almost no conditions for the work of schools and colleges, as well as the work of companies, where workers can carry out their work duties using IT and an electronic device, connected on the Internet. In this article, we will give a special review to the benefits of IT in the corona pandemic for the educational process, and we will also consider the disadvantages, which we have seen during that period.
