The issue of studying a person's abilities to perceive a large amount of information during the period of distance learning is poorly understood and extremely relevant. The problem of our research is the identification of modern technologies for supporting education system specialists in working with a large amount of information, the ability to perceive and analyze it, as well as reducing the level of information fatigue among educational workers during distance learning, since the digitalization of education has an intense negative impact on mental processes of employees, on their psychological and social well-being. The article describes the results of a theoretical study of the interdisciplinary convergence of the indicated problem, expanding the understanding of Big Data technology through the psychology of abilities and the psychology of education. At the same time, the authors of the article note the increasing role of Big Data technology in the modern conditions of a pandemic and distance learning. Big Data technology or «Big Data» means a certain system of methods and some algorithms for working with large amounts of data. These data sets are aimed at acquiring a qualitatively new understanding of what this information carries. Now there are four main directions of the formation of large volumes of data in the education system. These are online training systems, internal information systems of educational organizations, information about employees and the requirements of the organization's management to potential employees, information about students. Having studied the main directions of Big Data development when processing large amounts of various information, we found links with the implementation of Big Data methods, tools and technologies in the field of education and the efficiency of employees. The authors identified and studied an important function of Big Data in the period of distance learning – it is the creation of psychological well-being of employees of the education system and the leveling of the problem of information fatigue.
