The relevance of the issues regarding information and communication technologies as components of effective training forms for higher education applicants is determined by the need to introduce information and communication applications into the educational process. Accordingly, the purpose of the article is to provide theoretical justification and experimental verification of the impact that information and communication technologies have on improving the higher education quality for applicants. To achieve this purpose, a complex of modern general scientific methods was used: theoretical (analysis, synthesis, generalisation, comparison); empirical (questionnaires, conversations, interviews, observations, expert assessment); statistical research methods that facilitated the study of scientific sources on information and communication technologies. Based on the theoretical and methodological analysis of the studied issue, it is determined that information and communication technology is a means of joint activity for a teacher and a higher education applicant, which is characterised, primarily, by the consistency of actions (algorithmicity), constant and systematic evaluation of educational achievements and the development of educational qualities (diagnostics), the relationship of the main technology elements, namely the purpose, content, forms, methods, means of interaction, and the results (consistency) of participants in the educational process. It was discovered that to present the material more interestingly and motivate applicants for higher education, it is necessary to use innovative teaching forms and methods, one of which is information and communication applications that contribute to enhanced logical thinking, cognitive activity, the creativity of students and the comprehensive personality development of the future pedagogical specialist. It is proved that these applications contribute to the easier assimilation of new educational material, the creative performance of practical tasks, and productive cooperation between teachers and applicants for higher education. The practical value of the research lies in the fact that the results obtained can be used in further studies on the influence of information and communication technologies on the communication of the educational process subjects

The article explores the features of modern information and communication technologies implementation in teaching technical English. The specifics of teaching foreign languages for applicants for non-linguistic specialties has its own characteristics, which should be taken into account when constructing and conducting classes. The information society poses new challenges and correspondingly new goals for teachers and applicants to higher education, the achievement of which is ensured by analyzing situational data and creating the environment that would most closely reflect the realities of the modern professional environment, which requires an appropriate level of a foreign language knowledge. It was determined that electronic learning tools act as a catalyst in mastering the material and improve the quality of the educational process. The study analyzed psychological factors that provide an extremely high level of student motivation and form the corresponding priorities in the direction of professional growth. The pedagogical ways of introducing multimedia teaching aids while studying a foreign language are described in detail as a key condition for the fundamental training of a qualified specialist, focused on meeting the needs of the modern market. It is noted that higher education institutions do not yet fully possess educational computer programs and the latest software, which is one of the most pressing problems in the digitalization of the educational process. It is proved that the effectiveness of achieving didactic goals directly depends on the chosen forms and methods of training, and the inclusion of information and communication technologies has such advantages as individualization and intensification of the educational process, an increase in the amount of independent work of the applicant, which is an important component of the Bologna process. In this regard, and with the aim of developing the communication skills of future specialists, ICTs are considered to be the primary element in the training of qualified specialists in economic fields.

Increasing demand for experts capable of high-quality assessment of the impact of a particular planned activity on the environment involves a more effective use of information and communication technologies (ICT) in the educational process of training ecology students. The authors present a methodology for students to study the educational material of the “Environmental Impact Assessment” course by using ICT. The methodology and algorithm for using the Padlet interactive whiteboard, Mindomo mind maps, Easel infographics, Google Drive and Google Docs in lectures and practical lessons are described. Particular attention is paid to the preparation of a group project using ICT. Tested in the Ternopil Volodymyr Hnatiuk National Pedagogical University, the methodology allows to implement a number of tasks such as: promotion of intensification and effectiveness of teaching; acquisition of practical skills to quickly find the necessary information on various online resources for ecology students; simulation of the real procedure of environmental impact assessment in the classroom; development of the ability to professionally communicate with experts in other fields of knowledge or activity, etc. Examination of the results of using ICT to study the “Environmental Impact Assessment” course has shown a significant increase in informational literacy among ecology students and their individual professional growth.

This article seeks to provide a view on the process of curricular integration of ICTs (Information and Communication Technologies) in higher education, throughout the submission of proposals of how to use some of these resources, with practical examples of its implementation in the learning process of students in subjects from the Initial Teacher Training and Geological Civil Engineering major at the Universidad Católica de la Santísima Concepción in Chile. Furthermore, the innovative and educational experiences mediated by ICT, described in this paper, allow us to visualize the important role that institutions of higher education play, not only in the training of future professionals making an emphasis on the digital skills necessary for their development in the XXI century, but also as suitable spaces for development and ongoing training of teachers with innovative methodological strategies that facilitate and enhance the educational process.
