Устойчивое развитие: язык, межкультурная коммуникация

Methods. Today's technologies allow humans to be present anywhere without actually being 
there. The development of the Internet and artificial intelligence use everywhere in many devices 
keep the world open without borders. Virtual technology is updated day by day with new 
possibilities for modern approaches. Blur a webcam in a conference is easy today with the help of 
the Augmented Reality (AR). Communication platforms are adapted, and, in their options, users can 
virtually raise their hands to speak and applaud to congratulate. They can also record the conference 
or lecture for review if they forget something or have not noticed it. It is a practical digital method 
to always keep knowledge like the content on the Internet [4]. The AR technology can create a 
virtual classroom in the background to simulate a traditional room.
The Moodle platform offers the possibility of creating different test forms (Figure 4) to 
evaluate students' skills [5]: 

Multiple choice; 

True/False; 

Matching; 

Short answer; 

Numerical; 

Essay; 

Calculated; 

Calculated multichoice; 

Drag and drop into text; 

Drag and drop markers; 

Drag and drop onto image; 

Embedded answers (Cloze); 

Random short-answer matching; 

Select missing words;

In this platform, educators can post an audio recording to assess students' listening skills. 
They also can post texts and questions to evaluate comprehension and grammar skills.
Managing all of this work depends on the relationship between teachers and how they 
organize themselves to determine the essential tasks for training students for the tests. The teams are 
divided according to the language studied. For a given language (French, Espagnole, English, and 
others), the administration chooses a person in charge who will then have the possibility of creating 
a team of educators (Figure 5).

 
Figure 5. A structure for management arrangement in a group. 
 
The leader/manager retrieves all the vital information about the students, their level, their 
skills, their mistakes and creates subgroups by student level (A1, A2, B1, B2, C1). His assistant 
continues this job with pedagogues, Methodists, and teachers. To give a good approach to this 
group and an effective learning, it is better for a teacher to be a native speaker. 
The pedagogue gives students the possibility to acquire extensive knowledge (grammar and 
tips to speak without mistakes). 
Grammar, conjugation, spelling (orthography), and tips for communicating correctly are 
practical by a teacher (native speaker). 
Methodists assist the pedagogue and the teacher in changing the method of education to 
modern and contemporary approaches. 
Results. During the COVID-19 pandemic, it was challenging to teach and study due to the 
change of learning method. Learners and teachers have to know how to use platforms and 
applications. After about six months of using new technologies, teachers and learners have adapted 
to this education method. It is not necessary to be present in classrooms to learn a foreign language. 
Russian students who do not have time to study or find it difficult to find a location near the 
university can now earn a degree. Distance education provides an excellent opportunity to save time 
and review videoconferences when the student has missed a class because of work or for some other 
reason. During the tests, the students became more comfortable answering the communication 
questions. Therefore, the pandemic is becoming more and more controllable, which may be a 
solution for any student who falls ill, so he can stay at home while continuing his academic year. At 
school, the situation is more complex due to the small classes and the excessive number of 
participants. If the school uses a single platform adding all the schoolchildren, it risks having many 
bugs. In the university dormitory, the students have access to the Internet, but it is the same problem 
as the school; bugs still exist.
During the tests, the students must activate their cameras so the teacher can check and control 
that no one is cheating. Content must be digitalized for publishing on the Moodle platform. Creating 
and manipulating such visual representations can be thought of as a form of self-explanation, which 
can be a learning activity [6]. 
Discussion. Psychologically it is not easy to be present in one room all day without physical 
activities because, like Tatiana Walther, wrote in her Thesis: “Intrinsic motivations appear strongly, 
positively and significantly associated with sport activity volume. Extrinsic motivation for the 
search of social contact also appears to be a positive and significant correlate”. In her Thesis, she 
explains that physical activities influence motivation, self-efficacy, self-esteem, and the quality of 
life. Without physical activities, many things are violated in the human body system. Everything 
has a price, so distance education saves time and gives knowledge with one click. Illness is no 
longer a barrier, but other problems show themselves as bugs (low connection of internet). Students 
have to use mobile internet and use a service with more megabytes in smartphones, and even worse,

they have to get a computer for personal use and better study experience. Sometimes Moodle 
platform can have a bug and can be blocked for 2 and 3 days for debugging it.
Students always find a way to cheat, so pedagogical control cannot be very effective. The 
camera does not show what is in the room and what the student is looking in his/her computer 
desktop. It is also insane to ask all students to share their screen on the communication platform.
The principles of evolutionary educational psychology will provide a much-needed anchor for 
guiding instructional research and practice. An evolutionarily informed science of academic 
development is, in fact, the only perspective that readily accommodates basic observations that 
elude explanation by other theoretical perspectives, such as constructivism [7]. 
Something is still missing in the distance education process.
