Abstract: The article explores the correlation between the educational component of human capital and the processes of economic modernization. It reveals the essence of the modernization process and its importance in global development; demonstrates the role of human capital in the process of modernization. The calculations were carried out using the patented Informational and Analytical System “Modernization” developed at ISEDT RAS. The system is based on the technique of measuring the modernization development by He Chuanzi and N.I. Lapin. The calculations proved that, all other things being equal, an increase in the number of the employed with tertiary education increases the likelihood of the implementation of the modernization processes. The authors mention the need to stimulate the formation of cognitive and social skills, creative behavioral characteristics starting from school and present ISEDT RAS experience in the formation and development of human capital from school age on the basis of using smart-learning technology at the Economic Internet School.
