For the last thirty years, UNESCO has been repeatedly raising questions of accessibility and quality of education for every child, teen, and adult by implementing the “Education for All” program. The new concept of education proposed by UNESCO aims at transforming people’s lives and formulates the following sustainable development goal “To provide inclusive and equitable quality education and create lifelong learning opportunities for all. One strategy for achieving this goal is to use and develop information and communication technology (ICT) to strengthen education systems, knowledge dissemination, access to information, and quality and effective learning. The aim of the work is to increase the efficiency of students’ learning of geometrical and graphic disciplines by developing a pilot electronic course in LMS Moodle and special software implementing elements of individualization of the learning process

The research considers conducting orthogonal experiment (OT) as one of the stages in developing a new discrete element method (DEM) parameters calibration approach. The measured responses in experiment are the parameters obtained by DEM animation processing using machine vision system (MVS). The variable factors in experiment are DEM parameters. A brief overview of an existing calibration approaches given in the article. The choice of OT as a design of experiment tool among other mathematical tools discussed. Experiments conducted using specially developed rig where bulk material's flow captured as DEM animation. DEM animation converted to video and then processed using MVS that allow register the values of such parameters as angle of repose or expiration time (measured responses). The results of the OT show that it is possible to identify four measured responses with the most valuable correlation coefficient. DEM parameters with the biggest influence on the measured responses identified for each of the obtained regression. Obtained results are useful in learning or iterative algorithms development for DEM parameters calibration.

The paper deals with the basic aspects of the integration of environmental, economic, and managerial knowledge in the development of science and education. Disadvantages of existing education programs in the field of natural resource management and environmental protection are noted. The main disadvantage is the low level of development of economic, organization and management issues, as well as Russian and international law. The paper presents and describes an approach to teaching Economics and Management unit for students majoring in "Ecology and Natural Resource Management", which corresponds to modern trends of industry and science development. The approach offered by authors includes four main sections which are of professional interest to future experts in the field of environmental protection: the general theoretical paradigm of environmental economics, questions related to the state environmental protection policy, questions of management as reaction to obligatory statutory requirements and corporate environmental management systems.
