The article examines the theoretical and practical aspects of the formation of the analytical skills among future fine arts teachers. The relevance of the article is due to the fact that today the abundance of information, information resources, often makes the modern student to analyze and select really relevant and verified information in the vastness of the information network. The problem arises here that not every student is able to work in this format. The purpose of the work is to introduce a method aimed at the formation of analytical skills of future teachers in the process of studying the discipline "History of Fine Arts". As a part of the experimental work, the article presents a scheme for analyzing a work of fine art, aimed at the formation of analytical skills of future teachers and the criteria by which they were assessed. Research methods: theoretical methods, analysis of psychological and pedagogical literature on the research problem. Experimental work, which was carried out within the "History of Fine Arts" course, was used as empirical methods. The study involved 25 respondents, 2-year bachelors of the Fine Arts area of training. Research results: the introduction of a method aimed at the formation of analytical skills of future teachers in the process of teaching the discipline "History of Fine Arts". This method allows us to form analytical skills among future teachers in the field of fine arts, and this is confirmed by the results of experimental work. It was revealed that the students acquired the ability to define the stylistic peculiarities of paintings, they began to define the plot of the work more concisely and clearly, learned to find in the work the laws of composition and colorism used by the artist, the techniques and methods of artistic expression used. They learned to analyze the coloristic structure of work based on the data of psychology. In general, future teachers began to look at works of fine art in a new way, discovering the original characteristics in each work. In this regard, it should be noted that the skills acquired by students of the Fine Arts area of training meet the requirements for a future teacher of fine arts and the requirements of the Federal State Educational Standard, the degree of mastering professional competences, the ability to perform the types of professional activities aimed at implementing main educational program.

The article considers the learning management systems (LMS) development problem which has become relevant to the modern society due to the process of active e-learning implementation in the educational process at different levels. The aim of the study is to analyze the literature on the LMS application and the LMS technology development trends. Theoretically and methodologically the study is based on the Russian and foreign scientists’ works. The 2019 pandemic forced the educational system to change the benchmarks and to move from the traditional learning process to the type of learning that can use the online environment as a primary or auxiliary tool for the educational process due to the information and communication technologies development. To implement such a transition learning management systems (LMS) began to develop actively. Theoretical literature analysis allowed to highlight the positive aspects of the LMS technologies use: the e-learning availability, online learning personalization, the ability to track and measure the progress of each user, more effective work with the materials and modules of educational courses, a new level of interaction between all participants in the learning process, the advantage in organizing the educational process from the educational organization perspective. The article also presents the negative aspects associated with the learning management systems use, for instance, the limits that a teacher has because of the fixed resources of a platform; furthermore, the educational process adapts to the platform, but not vice versa. The author notes the possibilities to solve the problem of limits imposed by learning management systems through the development and improvement of LMS platform technologies. The article examines the issues of LMS development promising areas that are becoming central while coping with problems connected with improving LMS platforms. The promising areas are as follows: learning analytics, Big Data reports, LMS transformation into a learning experience platform (LXP), semantic specification development for integration with other LMS systems, new software application interface (xAPI) development to consolidate ecosystems of different platforms, application of mobile technologies and the Internet of Things (IoT) when using learning management systems, immersive technologies (VR, AR) introduction. Thus, the LMS platform provides a wide range of resources that help move to a higher level of the educational process in terms of information and communication technologies.
