Introduction. The rapid development of information and communication technologies, which penetrate almost all the spheres of life, affects the formation of modern children, adolescents and youth people. The digital information field imposes on people a lifestyle that was not typical of the previous industrial civilisation. There is a need to assess the impact of the rapid spread of information technologies on the younger generation, since the previous methods, forms and educational technologies of working with them are largely outdated and do not give the planned result. It also becomes important to study the phenomenon of the digital generation, taking into account their psychological and pedagogical features in predicting the professional future.The present theoretical research aims to analyse the psychological and pedagogical phenomenological features of representatives of the digital generation in the context of professional education and predicting their professional future.Methodology and research methods. The methodological basis of the research is the concept of personality formation as a natural dependence of mental phenomena on the social factors that generate them. The research was carried out by using theoretical and methodological analysis of scientific literature on the issues of phenomenological features of representatives of the digital generation in the context of professional education and predicting the professional future. The methods of comparison, generalisation, concretisation, heuristic method and psychodiagnostic method were also used in the work.Results. The article presents an analysis of the phenomenon of the digital generation, examines the cultural, historical, psychological and pedagogical features of the digital generation in the context of professional education and predicting the professional future. The authors define the manifestation of these features in the communicative, cognitive, emotional-volitional, motivational-need spheres of the individual, and in relation to himself/herself. The theoretical structure of the prognostic competence of an individual, as well as a model for predicting the professional future, have been elaborated. The results of a pilot research of some components of predictive competence of schoolchildren and students are demonstrated.Scientific novelty. The scientific novelty of the work consists in the enrichment of psychological and pedagogical science knowledge about the phenomenological characteristics of the digital generation in the context of vocational education and predicting the professional future.Practical significance. The identified cultural-historical and psychological-pedagogical features of representatives of the digital generation can be useful to teachers in interacting with that generation in the educational process, personal contact, predicting the professional future of modern youth people, as well as in establishing communication between representatives of different generations in different social groups. The obtained results can be used to develop a new paradigm of information interaction of members of educational process, to introduce and implement conceptual structural-functional model of predicting professional future of the student of the digital generation, to develop and implement new forms and methods of active learning. The research materials will be useful for teachers, psychologists, and social professionals to understand the specific needs of digital generation representatives.

This paper focuses on the use of interactive technologies and distance learning in sustainable education. It discusses how remote learning technologies can positively influence students’ learning and entry in sustainable education. The paper looks at the use of distance learning in higher education as a means to help students in the built environment and its use within the education system. It studies and expands the theoretical research on the benefits of distance learning, where the study is remote and there is no personal contact with staff or students, and examines the impact of distance learning on the student’s learning experience. It also proposes and evaluates potential solutions to overcome the barriers to learning in the built environment and create successful virtual learning communities, recognising that such improvements must be reconciled with the primary benefits identified. The paper provides an overview of sustainable distance learning within higher education and discusses the differences between learning outside the structural environment of a profession, what it means for the student’s learning experience and the potential to overcome barriers to distance learning. This is a very timely topic in the times of COVID-10 pandemic. Lockdowns of the economy and social life impacted all spheres of education with schools and universities closed for long periods of time and all teaching moved to online and distance mode. However, coronavirus pandemic also brought the digital surge in the system of education, including the sustainable education. All these innovations might stay after the pandemic and help the education to evolve and to embrace more novel trends and technologies.

Стремительное развитие информационно-коммуникационных технологий, расширение международных связей в области экономики, науки, культуры и образования сделало владение иностранным языком одним из ключевых компонентов профессиональной компетентности специалиста. Иностранный язык в вузе превращается из просто дисциплины в инструмент получения профессиональной информации. Предметно-языковое интегрированное обучение (Content and Language Integrated Learning - CLIL) представляет один из целесообразных способов, позволяющих успешно устанавливать связи между профилирующими дисциплинами, а также осуществлять эффективную подготовку будущего специалиста к ведению профессионального общения с коллегами на иностранном языке, что и определяет актуальность нашей работы. В статье описываются принципы предметно-языкового интегрированного обучения, его преимущества и проблемы использования в учебном процессе. Цель статьи - определить влияние CLIL на улучшение изучения учащимися лексики и выяснить, есть ли разница между прогрессом студентов, применявших CLIL на занятиях, и теми, кто опирался на традиционные методы. Для проведения исследования были отобраны студенты, которые прошли обучение в экспериментальной и контрольной группах. Студенты экспериментальной группы активно использовали методы CLIL. Результаты показали, что студенты экспериментальной группы демонстрируют более высокий уровень квалификации и более высокую коммуникативную компетентность, чем их сверстники. Однако в процессе использования методики CLIL и преподаватели, и учащиеся столкнулись с рядом трудностей. Тем не менее автор приходит к выводу, что у CLIL есть потенциал для лучшего понимания профессионального контента при изучении иностранного языка. Полученными выводами могут воспользоваться преподаватели, методисты, исследователи, разработчики образовательных программ. The rapid development of information and communication technologies, the expansion of international ties in the field of economy, science, culture and education have made foreign language knowledge one of the key components in a specialist’s professional competence. Foreign language in the university is transformed from simply discipline into a tool for obtaining professional information. Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) is one of the most expedient ways to successfully establish links between majoring disciplines, as well as effectively prepare a future specialist to conduct professional communication with colleagues in a foreign language, which determines the relevance of our work. The article describes the principles of students’ Content and Language Integrated Learning, their advantages and problems of implementation. The purpose of the article is to determine the impact of CLIL on improving students’ study of vocabulary and to find out if there is a difference between the progress in students’ using CLIL in classes and those who have relied on traditional methods. The study selected students who were trained in experimental and control groups. Students in the experimental group actively used CLIL methods. The results showed that students in this experimental group demonstrate higher skill levels and higher communicative competence than their peers. However, in the process of using the CLIL methodology, both teachers and students faced a number of difficulties. The author concludes that CLIL has the potential to better understand professional content through foreign language learning. These results can be used by teachers, methodologists, researchers, and developers of educational programs.
