Digital and ICT literacy skills as one of the key competences of future foreign language teachers

Abstract The aims of this paper are to share the results of the action research of the future foreign language teachers’ digital and ICT literacy skills development and to demonstrate the opportunities for their development while pre-service teacher training process with the focus on the courses of Methodology of foreign language teaching and Practical course of foreign language as well as other positive practices. The authors present the results of comparative analysis of Ukrainian and American educational programmes for future foreign language teachers as for their opportunities to develop their digital and ICT literacy skills. The article discusses the digital and ICT literacy skills use in learning and teaching as an important component of future teachers’ training and a contribution to the university education quality and the employability of university graduates. The projects which influenced the action research elaborating are described. The results of three surveys are presented. The post-action-research stage is described as the one influenced with students’ and teachers’ participation in projects alongside with the extremely increased use of ICT in the conditions of the pandemic

Methodological aspects of cloud-oriented tools in information technology training

Professional training in information technology requires building an integrated system, which, as T.I. Koval notes, "is based on person-centered and activity-oriented approaches, an organic combination of traditional and computer-oriented methods, the integrated use of ... traditional and computer-oriented teaching aids, introduction of both traditional and distance forms of organizing the educational process". The saturation of the educational process with modern ICT tools creates conditions for increasing the share of active forms of students' learning activities, intensification of their independence in acquiring knowledge and mastering skills, and technological integration of classroom and extracurricular work using combined learning
