the bounds of the e-learning communities and their activities, generally, little attention had been paid to how information technologies (ICT) impacted higher education teaching and learning. There were voices pointing out that the rise of MOOCS was just one particular, albeit spectacular element, of the much broader agenda of digitalisation (i.e., e- and online learning), in which many universities have been involved for quite some time. While this is difficult to prove, the recent heated debates on the strategic importance of e- and ICT-based learning for European higher education, and predictions made about the future of higher education, revealed a lack of European-level data on e-learning in higher education. It was for this reason that EUA decided to conduct this survey, in order to be in a better position to contribute to ongoing policy discussions, and to support our members in their efforts to further enhance and promote innovation in learning and teaching. The results of this survey are surprising. Apart from a few notable exceptions, almost all institutions are involved in some forms of e-learning. It seems that there has been no sudden and disruptive change, but rather that a gradual adaptation has taken place, which continues at different paces and scales across Europe. Nevertheless institutional responses to MOOCs do suggest that European higher education institutions are capable of responding swiftly to new strategic challenges. The transformative potential of e-learning will require further studies. Fortunately, it appears that several European and international surveys are underway and will be available in 2015. It is to be hoped that they will help to complete the picture. We also hope that this e-learning survey will contribute to the broader debate that EUA has launched on learning and teaching innovation. EUA intends to use the present study as a point of departure for further work with members and partners who contributed to the survey. On the basis of concrete case studies, we hope to be able to refine the analysis of what works and what does not, in this new and exciting field.

Близько 25% осіб з вищою освітою отримують доходи, що вдвічі вищі середніх. Фінансові вигоди від інвестицій у вищу освіту для кожної особи протягом її життя є досить суттєвими, найнижчими вони є в Кореї, та становлять 83 200 дол. США або 6,2%. Найвищими фінансові вигоди від інвестицій у вищу освіту в Угорщині 315 600 дол. США або 25,4% та Польщі – 338 200 дол. США або 29,2%. Середній показник чистого фінансового доходу від інвестицій у вищу освіту в країнах ОЕСР становить 229 000 дол. США або 14,0%, серед країн ЄС даний показник дещо відрізняється і складає 222 000 дол. США або 15,5%. Така фінансова віддача від інвестицій у власну освіту заслуговує на увагу, і як показують результати, здобуття вищої освіти досить швидко окуповується. Населення з більш високим рівнем освіти також характеризується кращим рівнем здоров’я та більш схильне вести здоровіший спосіб життя, що відображається у зниженні показників смертності. Також окремі дослідження вказують на більш низький рівень злочинності серед освіченого населення. Переваги більш освіченого населення залишаються не тільки на сучасному етапі для самих працівників, а й майбутнім поколінням і суспільству в цілому. Отже, існує тісний зв’язок між рівнем освіти окремого індивіда, всього населення та розвитком економіки країни в цілому. Використана література 1. Константюк Н.І.
