The study uses a set of methods: diagnostic (observation, interviews, questionnaires, testing) – to determine the effectiveness of using cloud resources and services in teaching students; pedagogical experiment for experimental verification of the effectiveness of using cloud resources and services in teaching students in the process of forming professional and communicative readiness of future social workers; methods of mathematical statistics for quantitative and qualitative processing of research results. Cloud resources and services allow activating knowledge, help to find and design new ideas, and help to develop independent decision-making skills. The conclusions of the work can be the basis for the development of an e-environment based on G Suit for Education. Materials and conclusions of the research can be used in the practice of teaching the humanities at university. The scientific novelty of the research is that the study identifies specific cloud services for implementing project activities when teaching students remotely. The stages of project implementation in the e-environment based on G Suit for Education are presented.
