The highlighted problem is relevant in connection with the epidemic situation that has arisen in many countries of the world. Is emphasized the need to improve the forms and methods of work in educational institutions, which should be implemented on the basis of health-preserving training of future specialists.

It was found that most researchers consider the concept of "professional competence" as an integrative unit, which is a readiness for professional activity and includes a set of knowledge, skills and personal qualities due to socio-economic conditions. Attention is paid to scientific works, where professional competence is considered as a continuous aspiration of a person to self-realization and self-improvement. It is noted that the manifestation of professional competence is possible as a result of a harmonious combination of psychological, physical, emotional and intellectual components of the personality, which is real only in the presence of a good state of human health. It was confirmed that in the process of forming professional competence among future specialists of higher educational institutions, valeology appears as a necessary discipline and philosophy of life. The main provisions of valeology, based on health-preserving principles and technologies, have been determined. They must be realized in harmonious unity with the environment, which is an indispensable basis for a human's personal and professional life in a civilized society. It has been proved that valeology is an important component of the process of forming professional competence in future specialists of higher educational institutions as a discipline and value reference.

The article notes that nowadays the effectiveness of mastering English, which has long been the language of international communication and interaction for servicemen, is becoming essential. It is noted that there exist unresolved didactic problems reducing the quality of organizational and pedagogic tasks which emerge in the course of training. It is stated that in modern military aviation practice military pilots� professional activity is to a great extent characterized by their communicative competence which includes the following components: language competence (ability to communicate in all language aspects); competence of interaction (ability to use language to express communicative intention in an official situation of communication); socio-cultural competence (ability to build intercultural communication with foreign colleagues from other countries); compensatory competence (ability to successfully solve a difficult situation which might occur during flights). The article suggests the most appropriate methods of teaching and training future UAS crew members considering the specificity of goals and content of �English for Special Purposes� as a curriculum subject. Alongside with traditional methods, active teaching/learning methods such as problem-based learning tasks, analysis and solving of specific situations, role-playing games, variety of interactive exercises simulating near-real situations of professional scope are viewed as those of particular importance and efficiency. The main features of problem-based learning are determined: strengthening the focus on the personality of a cadet; expanding opportunities for interaction between a teacher and a cadet in the learning environment; development of cadets� intellectual mobility; increasing opportunities for creativity through independent work with a large number of databases offered by the teacher and present on the Internet; personalization of training through the creation of research projects featuring problematic nature; widespread access to new generation mobile devices, equipment and aircraft. The successive steps of designing a training course in �English for Special Purposes� for future UAS operators in a higher military educational institution are determined by the teacher. Key words: professional training, future UAS operators, English for Special Purposes, methods of problem-based learning.

The need to prepare future pilots for intercultural interaction is related to globalization and integration processes, the requirements of international organizations and the factor of flight safety. It is stated that in flying institutions of higher education insufficient attention is paid to preparation for intercultural interaction, therefore it is necessary to develop purposeful pedagogical measures on formation of future pilots’ readiness to intercultural interaction. This article reveals the problem of preparing future pilots for intercultural interaction. The aim of the research is to define various methods of implementing pedagogical conditions of formation future pilots’ readiness to intercultural interaction. To achieve the purpose of the researching we have used the methods of analysis, synthesis, comparison and generalization of native and foreign psychological and pedagogical sources on the problem of forming future pilots’ readiness to intercultural interaction. The theoretical analysis of scientific research made it possible to identify the following pedagogical conditions for the formation of readiness of future pilots for intercultural interaction: the formation of value orientations through the creation of a positive psychological climate; team work organization in the process of learning professionally oriented disciplines; integration of the culturological aspect into professionally oriented disciplines; stimulating of reflexive attitude to the process of formation of intercultural interaction qualities. To implement the pedagogical conditions of future pilots’ readiness to intercultural interaction, we offer the introduction of various methods, such as: interactive methods, projects, video games, ice-breaking exercises, training, case study, role-playing games, brainstorming.

Investigation of development and implementation of social innovations in regions of Russia is an important scientific problem. A socio-economic and political situation, traditional forms of government affect the forms of business communication and their efficiency. The subjects that determine the information and communication space of innovators are business, educational institutions and the state (Triple Helix theory). We also proceed from the fact that socio-economic development of the territory (case study of Volgograd region) depends on business, government and non-profit (third) sector as the main subjects of activity. We explore the communication as a resource for the formation of innovative activity; economic, political and cultural factors of this process are also researched. The research was carried out with the support of the RFBR (The Russian Foundation for Basic Research) and the Volgograd region administration (project № 17-13-34010). Young researchers, young entrepreneurs and experts were surveyed using qualitative methods. The results of the study allowed us to gain answers to the following questions: a) what communications are required for the formation of social capital; b) how to develop and implement innovations through communication. The study has showed that the problem with communication is systemic and affects all actors.

This chapter provides a case study of the use of worldbuilding for role-playing games as the foundation for a first year multiliteracies seminar. The author provides an overview of teaching and learning during the pandemic in the Irish context. The chapter provides practical advice on using a MediaWiki installation as the infrastructure for worldbuilding projects. The author shows how this imparts important digital literacies and allows for a critical apprehension of Wikipedia itself. The author argues that online learning and professional development benefit from a multiliteracies approach and, furthermore, that worldbuilding is a useful strategy for overcoming the limitations of online learning while at the same time achieving rigorous learning outcomes.

Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games (MMORPGs) create large virtual communities. Online gaming shows potential not just for entertaining, but also in education. This case study investigates the use of commercial MMORPGs to support second language teaching. MMORPGs offer virtual safe spaces in which students can communicate by using their target second language with global players. Using a mix of ethnography and action research, this case study explores the students' experiences of language learning and performing while playing MMORPGs. The results show that the use of MMORPGs can facilitate language development by offering fun, informal, individualised and secure virtual spaces for students to practise their language with native and other second language speakers.
