Abstract

The article discusses the main arguments of supporters and opponents of using wearable  means  of access to the Internet by students while they are in an educational organization.  The main type of such means  of access today  is a smartphone and, accordingly, mobile Internet access that  is not  controlled  within the  educational organization.  This is not  to say that  the  representatives of the  new generation are better  at using Internet access tools and  network  activity skills than  adults. Rather, we can say that  for them,  for various reasons, this is the  main activity and a means  of socialization. Based on this, we will consider  this problem.  The bases  and  consequences of using smartphones and  other  means  of access to the Internet as the main activity of modern  students, as well as possible ways for students to develop  a culture of using smartphones for educational purposes  are determined.
