Modernization of higher education opens up new prospects for the use of electronic resources to improve the quality of training for choreographers. The use of multimedia services (Power Point, Piktochart, AhaSlides, Google presentations, etc.) satisfies both the requirements for training programs for specialists involved in choreographing and the requirements for the level of development of skills that form the basis of personal emotional intelligence. The authors explore the issue of justifying the effectiveness of including digital storytelling in choreographic education. The aim of the study is to examine the potential of using multimedia stories in training choreographers to develop their emotional intelligence. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that the didactic potential of using multimedia storytelling in training choreography specialists for the development of emotional intelligence is validated. Theoretical significance: the identified didactic opportunities are supported by communication in the intercultural educational environment to ensure a favorable, emotionally comfortable climate in the dance group. Multimedia service – MS Power Point. 62 students of the Orel State Institute of Culture were involved. Area of training: 52.03.01 – Choreographic art (bachelor’s degree level). The χ2-Pearson test was used for statistical processing of data. The level of emotional intelligence was assessed based on materials from K. Barchard’s questionnaire. Multimedia storytelling is considered as an innovative narrative practice, which is based on the creation of emotional stories using digital technology. The system of work for creating multimedia stories is described: studying the digital service and its capabilities; concept development; collection and analysis of information; creation of history and its implementation in digital format; presentation and subsequent application in practice. A special feature of the program is the adaptation of its content to the specifics of the training area. The authors conclude that the use of multimedia stories contributes to the development of emotional intelligence due to the social nature of the activity, multi-layered and non-linear treatment, multimodality, and provision of emotionally comfortable atmosphere. Some difficulties are also noted: low initial level of digital skills; different motivation; specialization in dance. The results obtained can be used to update choreographer training programs, advanced training courses, and the content of webinars on choreographic education.

Modernization of higher education opens up new prospects for the use of electronic resources in order to ensure the quality of foreign language education. The use of interactive tools (simulators, flash cards, virtual boards) meets the requirements for training programs for specialists involved in choreographing dances and the challenges of the international sports movement. The authors examine the issue of justificating the effectiveness of the use of digital flash cards for didactic purposes in the foreign language interaction of specialists in the field of dance and physical education to improve the quality of their professional training. The purpose of the work is to study the potential of using digital flash cards in the training of choreographers for the development of their foreign language communicative competence. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that the didactic potential of using digital flash cards in foreign-language interaction of choreography specialists is substantiated in order to improve the quality of their professional training. Theoretical significance – the revealed didactic opportunities are supported by foreign language communication when organizing the work of dance groups, when teaching plastic movements, when staging theatrical or variety numbers. The Quizlet online platform is used to work with digital flash cards. The control work contains questions grouped into sections "Computer technologies in dance art" and "Foreign language in communication (the field of dance and physical education)". The study involved 54 third-year students of the Orel State Institute of Culture. Area of training: 52.03.01 – Choreographic art (bachelor's degree level). The χ2-Pearson criterion was used in statistical data processing. The system of working with flash cards in foreign-language professional communication of teachers-choreographers is described: the study of functionality, work with ready-made sets of cards, efficient improvement of vocabulary use, development of original thematic sets. The peculiarity of the program is the adaptation of its content to the specifics of the area of training. Students of the experimental group used Flashcards, Speller, Scatter, Quizlet Live modes in independent work and network collaboration. The authors draw the conclusions about the potential of including flash cards in the training of choreographers: competitiveness and getting positive emotions; resources for self-development. Some difficulties are also highlighted: low initial level of language proficiency and digital skills; different motivation; specialization in dance. The results obtained can be used to update choreographers' training programs, professional development programs, online-courses in dance art.

An important task facing a digital school teacher is to prepare a graduate who is able to use the acquired knowledge in practice and offer non-standard solutions demanded by Industry 4.0. The authors investigate the problem of substantiating the effectiveness of 3D-modeling use for building up research skills of students in the context of additional education. The purpose of the study is to explore the potential of 3D-modeling in the classroom in the system of additional education for the development of research skills of schoolchildren. The following classification of research skills is used in the work: operational, communicative, organizational, informational. The authors have identified the appropriate indicators for them: conducting observations and research; hypothesizing; planning activities; analysis of information sources. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that the potentials of using 3D-modeling are substantiated as an additive technology for training school graduates who should be able to successfully self-actualize in the conditions of the creative industry. Theoretical significance – the authors identified didactic capabilities of 3D-modeling tools in the context of additional education contributing to the development of students’ research skills by increasing the visibility of the product presentation, versatility, the absence of the need for an additional physical model, the relative speed of obtaining drawings and layouts. Experimental work was carried out on the basis of the Center for Prototyping of the Orel State Institute of Culture, in the studios of blogging and creative video. Models and objects printed on a 3D-printer were evaluated during diagnostics. Pearson's χ2 (chi-square) test was used as a statistical processing method. The results present a program of classes for the module "Creative Modeling", which allows developing the research skills of studio participants during carrying out interdisciplinary tasks. A system of tasks has been worked out to support all stages of students' activities. Conclusions are drawn about the potential of 3D-modeling: putting forward a hypothesis of a natural-scientific character and testing it experimentally; mastering the methodology of independent planning and conducting an experiment in compliance with safety regulations, etc. The difficulties that complicate the use of 3D-models are formulated: the problem of training mentors to use technology; the organization of students' access to equipment. The results obtained can be used in classes in the system of additional education for career guidance work, organizing free time and supporting the intellectual development of students.

The effectiveness of the library as a sociocultural institute depends not only on professionalism, but also on the emotional abilities of librarians (their sociability, response to unforeseen situations, the ability to "read" the needs, expectations and interests of others), and the skills of using digital technologies in library collaboration. The authors study the problem of justifying the effectiveness of the use of gaming applications in the context of the formation of an emotionally-comfortable library environment. The purpose of the study is to examine the potential of gamification tool AhaSlides for the development of emotional intelligence of participants in library-information interaction. The methodology is based on identifying the opportunities of library collaboration and digital technologies for the development of personal emotional intelligence; on clarifying the options and forms of gamification services application in the work of libraries. Scientific novelty: the potential of using gaming applications to build the skills that form the basis of emotional intelligence (emotional awareness, managing your emotions, self-motivation, empathy) is justified. Theoretical significance – the factors have been identified that affect the quality of using gamification tools for the development of emotional intelligence of participants in information and library interaction. Students of the Orel State Institute of Culture, employees and users of the Centralized Library System of the city are involved in experimental work. AhaSlides is a means of gamifying for interaction of employees, readers, visitors and partners of libraries. The N. Hall test was applied at the stage of diagnosis and assessment of emotional intelligence formation. Pearson's χ2 test was used as a statistical processing method. The results present a methodological approach containing: a description of the program for training library specialists; ideas and principles of including digital tools of gamification in the design of the library-information collaboration environment for the development of the emotional intelligence of its participants. The prospects for gamification of the library environment have been determined: the involvement of new users, the use of neural networks, support for career guidance, etc. The results obtained can be used in the training of specialists in the library and information sphere, in the work of libraries and other institutions of a cultural and educational nature.

One of the most important tasks facing the teacher of the digital school is to train a graduate who can use the gained knowledge in life and generate new ideas, offer non-standard solutions, go beyond the usual patterns and circumstances. The authors examine the problem of justifying the effectiveness of time line services use for the development of creative thinking of students by means of additional education. The purpose of the study is to examine the didactic potential of interactive time lines in classes in additional education system for fostering students’ creative thinking. The methodology is based on identifying the opportunities of additional education and information technologies of the digital environment for the formation of components of creative person thinking; on clarifying the program of classes and methods of organizing activities in studios when creating time lines. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that the didactic potential of using timeline as a type of infographics in relation to each of the components in the structure of creativity is justified: flexibility, originality, elaboration, fluency. Theoretical significance: the authors identified didactic potential of timeline services in additional education, contributing to the development of creative thinking due to the opportunities of interactive presentation, multiple use, multimedia, technical minimalism. Experimental work was carried out on the basis of the Center for Creative Industries of the Federal State Budgetary Educational Institution of Higher Education "Orel State Institute of Culture", in the studios "In Topic" and "Perspective". To create time lines, the Timeline JS service was chosen. The method of F. Williams (adapted by E. E. Tunik) was used in the diagnosis and assessment of thinking formation. Pearson's χ2 (chi-square) test was used as statistical processing method. The results present a program of classes, methods of organizing activities in studios when creating time lines: displaying facts in chronological order, compiling algorithms, creating biographies, and presenting statistics. Difficulties that complicate the use of services are also formulated: management of time resources, the need to work out criteria and indicators for the effective use of web-applications. The results obtained can be used in classes in the system of additional education for career guidance work, organizing leisure time and supporting the intellectual development of students.
