interactive technologies

Higher military educational institutions operating under dispersed learning conditions require effective digital approaches that support both professional training and foreign language development. Accordingly, this study examines the effectiveness of integrating interactive technologies and the Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) approach into physics instruction through the use of Moodle, Google Meet, Google Forms, multimedia presentations, bilingual instructional materials, and video-based laboratory demonstrations. Modern military specialists require not only strong engineering knowledge but also the ability to use English-language technical resources throughout their professional careers. Consequently, physics instruction should integrate subject-specific content with foreign language development from the earliest stages of military education. English language proficiency plays a significant role in physics instruction, since much technical documentation, device manuals, scientific articles, and materials on military technology are provided in English. Considering this, applying the CLIL approach, which enables simultaneous acquisition of physics content and professional English terminology, is well justified. The research employed a quasi-experimental design supported by classroom observation, and comparative analysis. The study involved 69 first-year cadets, divided into an experimental and a control group. The experimental group was taught using a combination of interactive technologies, digital tools, and CLIL elements integrated into lectures, practical sessions, and laboratory work. The experimental group achieved a higher mean score (M = 73.79) than the control group (M = 57.85), indicating the positive impact of integrating interactive technologies and CLIL elements into physics instruction. The study confirms that integrating interactive technologies and CLIL enhances the effectiveness of physics instruction in dispersed learning environments and contributes to the development of both professional and language competencies required for modern military specialists.

The professional reintegration of veterans is a major challenge for Ukraine’s post-war recovery and requires vocational education aligned with labour market needs. The tourism and hospitality industry offers employment opportunities, but transition to civilian work requires sector-specific knowledge, digital competence, communication, teamwork, decision-making and adaptability. The study aims to develop and theoretically substantiate a conceptual model for integrating interactive digital learning technologies into veterans’ vocational education for employment in the tourism and hospitality industry. The methodology combines secondary analysis of a sociological survey conducted by the Ukrainian Veterans Fund and the Rating Sociological Group in December 2025 among 240 respondents, competency mapping and a systematic literature review. The analysis identified transferable military competencies, including discipline, teamwork under pressure, logistical planning and decision-making in dynamic situations. It also revealed gaps in customer orientation, digital literacy and personalised service. The proposed model links veterans’ competencies and educational needs with labour market requirements through interactive technologies, including problem-based, case-based, simulation-based and scenario-based learning, microlearning, the flipped classroom, Learning Management Systems, Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality and Geographic Information Systems. The model provides a framework for translating military experience into civilian professional competencies and supports vocational programmes for veterans seeking employment in the tourism and hospitality industry. Its application may strengthen employability, facilitate social reintegration and contribute to Ukraine’s post-war recovery. Further research should validate the model through implementation and evaluation.

This article highlights the issues of using modern interactive technologies and communicative methods in teaching Russian as a second language in general secondary schools. It analyzes the problems in developing students' speech and communicative competencies and ways to solve them through game-based technologies, project-based learning, and ICT tools. Accordingly, practical recommendations are provided to enhance students' motivation for learning the Russian language.

This article examines the theoretical and methodological foundations for improving the development of students’ communicative competence in Russian as a foreign language through interactive and digital technologies. The study draws on communicative language teaching, the action-oriented approach, constructivism, collaborative learning, and the updated CEFR model. The CEFR Companion Volume conceptualizes language use through reception, production, interaction, and mediation and gives explicit attention to online interaction and collaborative meaning-making. On this basis, the article proposes a cyclical methodology consisting of diagnostic assessment, linguistic scaffolding, an authentic communicative task, role-play or problem-based interaction, collaborative mediation, reflection, and criteria-based formative assessment. The analysis suggests that the effectiveness of interactive technology depends less on the tool itself than on its pedagogically coherent connection to communicative goals, learners’ proficiency, language material, and feedback. In higher education, a systematic combination of role-play, debate, jigsaw tasks, case studies, project work, peer feedback, LMS forums, collaborative documents, and video/audio assignments can shift students from passive knowledge reception toward active participation as social agents.

این مقاله به بررسی مبانی نظری و روش‌شناختی بهبود توسعه شایستگی ارتباطی دانشجویان در زبان روسی به عنوان زبان خارجی از طریق فناوری‌های تعاملی و دیجیتال می‌پردازد. این پژوهش بر آموزش زبان مبتنی بر ارتباط، رویکرد کنش‌محور، سازنده‌گرایی، یادگیری مشارکتی و مدل به‌روزشده CEFR تکیه دارد. جلد همراه CEFR استفاده از زبان را از طریق دریافت، تولید، تعامل و میانجی‌گری مفهوم‌سازی می‌کند و توجه صریحی به تعامل آنلاین و ساخت مشترک معنا دارد. بر این اساس، مقاله یک روش‌شناسی چرخه‌ای شامل ارزیابی تشخیصی، حمایت زبانی، یک تکلیف ارتباطی اصیل، ایفای نقش یا تعامل مبتنی بر مسئله، میانجی‌گری مشارکتی، بازتاب و ارزیابی تکوینی مبتنی بر معیارها پیشنهاد می‌کند. تحلیل‌ها نشان می‌دهد که اثربخشی فناوری تعاملی کمتر به خود ابزار وابسته است و بیشتر به پیوند منسجم آموزشی آن با اهداف ارتباطی، سطح مهارت زبان‌آموزان، مواد زبانی و بازخورد بستگی دارد. در آموزش عالی، ترکیب نظام‌مند ایفای نقش، مناظره، تکالیف جورچین، مطالعات موردی، کار پروژه‌ای، بازخورد همتایان، انجمن‌های LMS، اسناد مشارکتی و تکالیف ویدئویی/صوتی می‌تواند دانشجویان را از دریافت منفعلانه دانش به سوی مشارکت فعال به عنوان عاملان اجتماعی سوق دهد.
