The structure of foreign language communicative competence is considered as a set of linguistic, speech, socio-cultural, strategic, and self-educational competences, each of which contains invariant and variable components. This chapter presents a theoretical model of modular technology of foreign language training based on the integration of the system, competence, personal activity, multicultural, acmeological approaches, and taking into account general didactic and specific (modularity, flexibility, agility, regionality, predictability) principles. Its structural components (theoretical-methodological, purposeful, meaningful, procedural-technological, resultant-evaluative units) are described. The description of the modular technology of foreign language training of technical university students is given. Information and communication technologies are considered as a means of information and methodological support and diagnostic tools for monitoring foreign language training. The results of experimental work are presented.

В образовательном сообществе резко возросло использование информационных и коммуникационных технологий (ИКТ) в преподавании и изучении иностранных языков. Учителя получают доступ к инновациям и внедряют их, не всегда осознавая их значение для самих себя и своих учеников. В статье представлены некоторые особенности ИКТ, которые можно использовать учебной среде, а также использование видео в качестве инструмента ИКТ на уроках иностранного языка. В данной статье также обсуждается роль учителя во внедрении технологий, именно учитель, а не технология, определяет качество обучения и преподавания. Роль учителя будет поставлена под угрозу, если мы интегрируем информационно-коммуникационные технологии в образование; однако в «техно-гуманистической» системе, учитель, ученики и технологии образуют прочный и значимый союз. The use of information and communication technologies (ICT) in teaching and learning foreign languages has increased dramatically in the educational community. Teachers gain access to innovations and implement them, not always realizing their importance for themselves and their students. The article presents some of the ICT features that can be used in a learning environment, as well as the use of video as an ICT tool in foreign language lessons. This article also discusses the role of the teacher in the implementation of technology, it is the teacher, not technology, that determines the quality of teaching and learning. The role of the teacher will be compromised if we integrate information and communication technologies into education; however, in a “techno-humanistic” system, teacher, students and technology form a strong and meaningful union.

The problem of formation of the information and analytical competence of future border guard officers with the use of information and communication technologies in their self-study activity is highlighted. The essence of the information and analytical competence is understood as a component of professional competence that reflects the readiness and ability of future border guard officers to apply information and analytical knowledge, their abilities, skills and personal qualities while processing information of various types and forms of presentation; ability to search for, evaluate, store, analyze, issue and disseminate important information in order to obtain qualitatively new knowledge necessary for decision-making in their professional activity. The structure of the information and analytical competence is the unity of four components, in particular, a value and motivational component, a cognitive and operative component, an activity component and a subjective one. The content of training is improved on the basis of the learner-oriented approach. The model that consists of organizational, practical and resultative blocks has been developed. The article deals with the issues of implementing the use of information and communication technologies in the course of foreign language training for future border guard officers as one of the pedagogical conditions of forming the information and analytical competence. The advantages of usage of new information and communication technologies in the self-study activity of cadets of higher military educational institutions is considered. The article highlights the importance of the self-study of future border guard officers in the process of formation of the information and analytical competence. The author states the main functions of the self-study activity in the course of foreign language learning. The teacher role in managing the self-study of cadets is stated. The advantages of usage of electronic textbooks are considered. The author presented interactive exercises and tasks from the electronic textbook. The lead-in is conducted to draw cadets’ attention to the topic of discussion. Different types of tasks before/while and after reading or watching the materials are performed. These tasks and exercises in their turn foster forming the information and analytical competence of future border guard officers. The implementation of self-study under the condition of introducing new information and communication technologies in the process of foreign language training contributes to the self-reliance formation of future border-guard officers, their activity and initiative in studies. The use of information and communication technologies in the self-study management provides control and self-control of independent cognitive activities, develops the creative orientation of cognitive activities of future border-guard officers, and motivates them to perform their tasks while processing foreign language sources in order to form their own assessment of processes and phenomena.
