Ensuring the process of improving the qualifications of teachers by means of Informatization of education makes it possible to implement scientific and methodological support for teachers in solving actual pedagogical problems. The competence of the teacher, which we regard as pedagogical intentionality, is of particular importance in the context of modernizing approaches to setting educational goals and results. The author presents the results of the study, the purpose of which is to identify the methodological potential of Internet technologies in the development of the pedagogical intentionality of teachers in the process of advanced training. As a leading approach, we used a comparative analysis of the key characteristics of the designed educational system: 1) pedagogical intentionality as the required competence and learning objectives, 2) approaches to adult education, taking into account the characteristics of education subjects and 3) Internet technologies as the intended means of education. Designing a pedagogical intentionality as a teacher’s general professional competence includes a terminological, logical-conceptual and structural comparative analysis of intentionality as a pedagogical and interdisciplinary category. The results of the study made it possible to give a definition of the specified competence, to identify its essence and functions. A theoretical analysis of approaches to adult education revealed that the key characteristics were experience and established opinion, the position of an adult, independence and pragmatism. As a result of the study, an overview of the key characteristics of Internet technologies is presented, demonstrating their essential significance for the elements of the designed educational system. It is argued that the methodological potential of Internet technologies in the development of teacher’s pedagogical intentionality in the process of advanced training is to ensure the processes of figurative perception, verbalization, metacognitive and reflexive understanding through the launch of slow modes, as well as the possibility of creating an emotionally saturated environment and conditions for self-expression and establishment of the author’s position, supporting cooperation procedures on the basis of trust and status equality of educational event participants. The theoretical significance of the research results consists in concretizing the approaches to the use of Internet technologies. Practical value – the ability to use the results of the study in the development of additional advanced training programs for teachers.

This paper reviews scientific literature regarding the effects of internet-technologies on the formation of modern-day students' value systems. We have conducted an empirical research, the goal of which is to reveal the connection between the duration of usage of internet-technologies by students and the specifics of their value systems. We have also tried to reveal the connection between the goals of internet usage by students and their need for communication.

In today's globalized world, where tourism is one of the most dynamically developing industries, English language proficiency is becoming a critical professional skill for tourism professionals. Effective professional communication in English allows specialists to expand opportunities for international cooperation, attract foreign tourists and improve the quality of service. However, traditional language teaching methods are often insufficiently effective in preparing students for real situations of professional interaction. In this connection, the research and implementation of interactive Internet technologies in the educational process, which can simulate authentic situations of professional communication and stimulate the active use of English language, is of particular relevance. The aim of this article is to analyze the effectiveness of interactive Internet technologies in the formation of students' ability to use English in tourism for professional communication. The study examines different approaches to the use of interactive platforms, online simulators, virtual tours and social networks to develop students' communicative skills, analyze speech strategies and expand vocabulary in the context of professional activities in the tourism industry. The expected results include identification of the most effective interactive methods and tools, development of recommendations for their implementation in the educational process, as well as assessment of the impact of the use of interactive technologies on students' motivation to learn English and their readiness for professional activity. Theoretical significance of the study lies in the expansion and deepening of knowledge about the possibilities of using interactive Internet technologies in language education, as well as in the development of theoretical foundations for the creation of effective methods of teaching English to specialists in the field of tourism. The practical significance of the work lies in the possibility of using the developed recommendations and methodological materials by teachers of the English language in higher educational institutions, as well as by specialists in the development of online courses and interactive teaching aids for the training of competent and in-demand specialists for the tourism industry.
