Interactive learning: harnessing technology to alleviate foreign language anxiety in foreign literature education

ABSTRACT This study explores how information technologies can be utilized in foreign literature education (FLE) to alleviate foreign language anxiety (FLA) among Chinese students. FLA, characterized by apprehension and discomfort when engaging with a foreign language, often hampers motivation, confidence, and comprehension, especially in literary contexts. Using a multistage cluster sampling design, data were collected from 455 students through online questionnaires and analyzed with SPSS. The findings reveal that integrating interactive learning technologies, such as virtual reality (VR) and gamification, significantly reduces FLA. These technologies foster a supportive and immersive environment, enhancing oral proficiency, cultural understanding, and student confidence. The study introduces innovative strategies to mitigate psychological barriers, contributing valuable insights into the use of technology to create more conducive learning environments. The research underscores the importance of interactive technology in minimizing anxiety, enriching language acquisition, and promoting a more effective and engaging FLE experience.

Анализ теории и практики адаптации обучающихся к интерактивным технологиям обучения

The article provides a retrospective analysis of various approaches to the adaptation of students in an interactive educational environment. The characteristics of each of the analyzed approaches highlight the specifics of students' adaptation to the conditions of an interactive learning environment. The purpose of the article is to analyze the theory and practice of students' adaptation to an interactive educational environment. A comparative analysis of various scientific approaches to the adaptation of students to the educational process has allowed us to define pedagogical processes as synergetic systems in which unstable, unexpected and unpredictable situations are constantly created that require an adequate operational response from students. Consideration of pedagogical processes as synergetic systems leads to the need to use interactive educational technologies in the educational process. In an interactive educational environment, adaptation does not manifest itself in a traditional academic form, but takes the form of preadaptation, which requires students to quickly search, build and regulate their attitude and behavior, adequately changing the conditions of the educational environment. Based on the analysis of the dynamics of the development of interactive learning technologies in the study, meaning-creating educational technologies have been experimentally developed and substantiated, allowing creating conditions in the educational process for the openness of thoughts, ideas and meanings of students and the phenomena studied and knowledge about them. The educational technologies proposed in the article are a new direction in the development of an interactive educational environment, and their use in educational practice can significantly increase the adaptability of students to the educational environment.

Exploring Interactive Learning Approaches and Technology Integration in the Kenyan Education System

Abstract This paper examines the dynamic intersection of interactive learning approaches and technology integration within contemporary education. As technology rapidly evolves, it fundamentally reshapes pedagogical practices by introducing innovative tools and strategies that redefine the teaching and learning landscape. We investigated the pivotal roles of Extended Reality (XR) technologies, including Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR), in crafting immersive educational experiences. Additionally, interactive learning methodologies, such as game-based learning and the Learning by Asking (LBA) system, are scrutinized for their potential to engage learners and foster their skill acquisition. Furthermore, the emergence of competency-based education (CBE) models is analyzed in response to evolving educational objectives, emphasizing the cultivation of practical skills, problem-solving abilities, and commitment to lifelong learning. Nevertheless, the successful integration of these advancements encounters formidable challenges, including institutional barriers and the imperative need for comprehensive teacher training. This review illuminates the transformative potential of technology in education and underscores educators’ pivotal role in equipping learners for an increasingly dynamic and uncertain future.

APPLICATION OF INTERACTIVE TEACHING METHODS IN BIOLOGY LESSONS AS A MEANS OF IMPROVING STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT

The article examines the issue of the use of interactive learning technologies in secondary education institutions, their importance in the process of studying the material of biological content in biology lessons. The use of interactive methods contributes to the formation of communication skills, the ability to clearly and consistently express one's opinion, analyze, formulate conclusions, work in a team, increases interest in the educational material, which, as a result, contributes to the improvement of student success. The use of interactive exercises in biology lessons at school enables students to realize themselves, increase the level of their knowledge, creates comfortable conditions in the learning process, improves the development of critical thinking of students, contributes to better memorization of educational material, forms and develops general educational competences of students in biology.
 Examples of the use of such methods as "who will determine first", "my mood in the lesson", "teaching-learning", "openwork saw", "brainstorming", "incomplete sentence", "associative bush", "microphone", " intellectual map", "tree of knowledge", "yes - no", "questionnaire-reflection", "point of support", "cheat sheet", "doctor consults", "incomplete sentences", "recall", "catch a mistake", " my mood in class", "you - me, I - you", "circle of ideas", "word cloud" in the process of studying the material of the biological direction in biology lessons.
 Biology lessons were held for the 6th and 8th grades of the secondary school. Exercises and interactive learning methods were used in the experimental classes, but not in the control classes. In both classes, at the end of each lesson, an express test was conducted on the parallels, which made it possible to trace whether the interactive exercises were effective, and in which class the students' success rate was higher. The average score of students before the use of interactive learning technologies was calculated. On the basis of the received data, an analysis of the level of assimilation of knowledge, abilities and skills of students was carried out.
 As a result of the pedagogical experiment, the interest and high activity of students in the application of interactive teaching methods was revealed. From the analysis of the level of assimilation of knowledge, abilities and skills, with the help of calculating the average score and the indicator of qualitative success, it is possible to draw a conclusion about the correct selection of exercises and methods. When comparing the performance indicators in the experimental classes, in which interactive exercises were used, and in the control classes, where traditional training was conducted, it was established that in the former, the average score and the qualitative performance indicator of students increased relative to the initial values.
