description In the world of online education, teachers are constantly looking for ways to interact with students both synchronously and asynchronously. The next decade is likely to witness a considerable rise in the development of more advanced e-learning and m-learning tools since they have become a vital factor for education due to the global shutdown of learning activities forced by the COVID-19 pandemic. This paper is a preliminary attempt to analyze the use of e-learning and m-learning technologies by Russian universities. E-learning and m-learning mean sharing knowledge and skills by using web- or mobile-based technology, respectively. The most commonly employed learning tools are social networks, LMS, and video conferencing which due to their accessibility, immediacy, interactivity, and context-awareness benefit both teachers and students in a number of ways.
