Legal Issues of Electronic Education and Healthcare: Ways to Improvement
Abstract
Mobile learning is potentially more efficient than traditional education. However, efficiency of medical education is yet unspecified due to absence of approved standardized criteria for assessing its results and heterogeneity between interferences and result assessments. Digitalization will enhance shaping people of the future in a different way that calls for stricter management and is more knowledge-focused. It is worth pointing out that external monitoring by international organizations can be an additional mechanism of institutional regulation but it is unable to become a substitute for opportunities provided by national governments. State institutions must establish systems prioritizing protection of public interests. Institutional development simplifies knowledge exchange within state-private partnership. It is easier for public organizations to learn from private ones if they already have some experience in this area or have enough resources available.
