Modeling of the teacher training for professional communications based on the use of digital technologies in didactic discourse

Problem statement. Information technologies have significant potential in terms of improving the effectiveness of professional communications in the education system. The teacher training system should be comprehensively expanded to form their readiness for didactic discourses based on the use of digital tools. At the same time, the development should affect many educational courses in pedagogical universities. An urgent problem is the need to model approaches to preparing students at such universities for the implementation of didactic discourses at a professional level, in which modern digital technologies are effectively used. Methodology. The modeling of approaches to the training of future teachers in personal communications based on the modern digital technologies has been carried out. The criteria for evaluating effectiveness of implementation of the developed model are defined. A survey of teachers from two Moscow pedagogical universities has been conducted, revealing results of the proposed model practical testing. Results. A model of a teacher training system for professional communications based on the use of digital technologies in didactic discourse, consisting of more than twenty elements, has been developed and described. The criteria and parameters for studying the results of model testing are described, such as didactic effectiveness, methodological valid ity, interactivity, adaptability, and others. According to all criteria, during the survey, teachers noted the importance of the approaches proposed in the model. At the same time, the degree of efficiency improvement varies depending on the type of criterion. Conclusion. The obtained results substantiate the need to improve the training courses set in the framework of training future teachers at the university, aimed at forming their readiness to carry out professional communications in the using digital technologies context. The model developed and described in the article can play the role of a starting point for conducting and developing relevant research.
