However, the rapid transition to remote learning in electronic environment has created a number of challenges in higher education. In order to derive longterm benefits from the changes in the way of teaching and examining, the paper explores the possibilities of IoT technology for continuous monitoring and flexible management of the learning process. The proposed framework for IoT application in educational activities will facilitate the adaptation of studying process at universities to the new circumstances.
