Over the past decade in the world there has significantly increased the process of globalization, which resulted in high demand for the profession of a translator. For future interpreters it is important to be well informed, to know innovations of the sector, which they have chosen as the major. Therefore, the translator should be able to search for information, and critically evaluate it. The article deals with the analysis of the application of modern information technology in the future translators training at the universities of the EU countries. The analysis of scientific and pedagogical literature that investigated aspects of information technology training of future translators at the universities has been made. The most widespread of information technologies that are applied during the translators’ training process have been defined, the possibilities of their application have been grounded. Countries, cities, universities of European Union where such training is carried out have been pointed out. Also it should be mentioned that the characteristic feature of interpreters' higher education in Europe is that the training program tend to a specialization profile. Their main types are: full program of higher education and independent graduate programs of specialized nature. The skills development of using computer technology makes an important contribution towards improving the quality of education during the professional activity. The change and correction of programs in accordance with the development of information technologies, informatization process, professional translators' interests are carried out in education systems. In the process of professional training there are used the methods that are aimed at the intensification of the processes of self-education and self-development. An important provision of the Bologna process is the focus of higher education establishments on educational results: knowledge and skills of the graduates should be applied and practically used.

The paper presents the critical analysis of Canadian and domestic studies on the teachers’ training in Canada; the main stages of informatization of Canadian society are reflected. The current status, issues and tendencies of higher pedagogical education development in Canada in conditions of the society informatization are considered. Some features of online learning environments and the use of ICT in education of the faculties in some universities in Canada are revealed. It is pointed out that in modern conditions of open access to information the latest ICTs are fundamental to the processes of learning and teaching throughout the world (particularly in Canada). Access of students and teachers to knowledge and information predetermines the fact that new technologies are challenging traditional processes, methods and approaches to teaching and learning, so current and future teachers should be prepared to use new ICTs. Canadian researches concerning teacher education on the role of Canada in the implementation of information technologies throughout the world are analyzed. The historical facts of science and technology in Canada that have affected the implementation of ICT in education, including teaching, are studied. Some didactic possibilities of ICT for teachers’ life-long learning, new knowledge and skills development, expanding the boundaries of teaches’ professional activities, reducing the time to organizational matters, efficiency and mobility training are revealed. Among the tendencies of pedagogical education development Canadian researchers mention the increase of time for practical training of students, teaching in the online environment, which leads to the transformation of the role of the teacher from the translator of knowledge to an active participant in the learning process, effective use of ICT tools (laptops, portable devices, clickers, a variety of computer programs), increasing the working time of teachers on the background of reducing the number of classes, etc. The purposes of the future researches are pointed out: reviewing the issues considered the nature, direction and the main types of modern ICT in Canadian scientific and educational literature; implementation the experience of Canadian pedagogical education in Ukraine, because improving the training of teachers in our country using ICT is extremely important.

The study presents partial results of the research aimed to investigate the impact of information and communication technologies in the subject of geography on the attitudes of students with mild intellectual disability who are educated in special primary schools. The study is about the issue of measurement and the research using methodology of a highly valid Single Case Design that is evidence-based. The methodology provides useful information for the area of special education, which is widespread abroad (mainly in the USA) with a very long and productive history. The universality of the conclusions of our study is limited to the choice of participants and the subject of the study. Considering that in the field of special education in this area is very poorly understood, we recommend subsequent research decisions to be performed using Single Case methodology. The conclusions obtained in the course of further research, can become a more precise answer to the question of the effectiveness of ICT impact on the position of a student with a mild mental disorder. At the same time it must be remembered that each child manifests him/herself in a specific way, and certain significant conclusions could produce a very pathetic impression. We would like to recall that the methodology of Single Case Design is based on evidence and help to a particular child. The lack of research results on the study of the relations of students with mild mental disorders to school geography lessons gives motivation for further study and was the reason for this study. The aim of this study of Single Subject Design was to study the effect of ICT on the attitude of pupils with a mild mental disorder to the school lesson. It seems that the results of this study support ICT as an educational intervention. Because the information obtained showed a gradual increase in positive students’ attitude to school lessons using ICT, taking into account the results of the post intervention phase (learning a lesson without ICT), has also shown strengthening of positive attitudes towards school geography lessons. The final results have shown only a slight increase in positive attitudes of pupils to lessons where have been used information and communication technologies. The personality of the teacher is a more effective factor which influences the attitudes of students to the school lesson.

Współczesną rzeczywistość charakteryzuje niezwykle dynamiczny rozwój techniki i technolo-gii, niemal lawinowy przyrost informacji oraz duży dynamizm zmian dotyczących wszystkich sfer naszego życia. Jednocześnie w tak zmieniającej się rzeczywistości mamy do czynienia z pasjonującym rozwojem nowych technologii informacyjno-komunikacyjnych, które w sposób nieograniczony umożliwiają przyswajanie i przetwarzanie informacji i wzajemne komunikowa-nie się. Rzecz jednak w tym, aby możliwości te wszyscy potrafili właściwie spożytkować dla dobra własnego i społecznego. Żeby jednak było to możliwe niezbędne jest nowe podejście do szeroko rozumianej edukacji. To przed nią jawią się różnego rodzaju wyzwania, które mają sprawić, że szkoła stanie się nowoczesną i przyjazną instytucją oświatową a jej absolwent bę-dzie dobrze przygotowany do właściwego (w domyśle twórczego) spożytkowania owych moż-liwości. Artykuł ten poświęcony został tej właśnie problematyce. Zarysowano w nim zarówno niedostatki wynikające wciąż z tradycyjnego podejścia do procesów edukacyjnych, jak również swoistego rodzaju trendy i wyzwania formułowane pod adresem składników systemu edukacji. Wskazano również na podstawowe technoedukacyjne możliwości jakie jawią się przed eduka-cją w związku z powszechnym dostępem do coraz to nowszej generacji narzędzi i technologii informacyjno- komunikacyjnych.

Modern reality is characterized by extremely dynamic development of technology technics and technology, rapid grow of information and a great dynamism of changes in all our spheres of life. At the same time in such a changing reality, we are dealing with the exciting development of new information and communication technologies which allow us to acquire and process in-formation, comunicate with each other in unlimited way. The thing is that all these capabilities could be used properly for their own and social good. However, in order to do so, a new ap-proach to widely understood education is needed. There are various challenges facing the school that will make the school to be a modern and friendly educational institution and for its gradu-ates to be well prepared for the proper (creative) use of these opportunities. This article is dedi-cated to this particular issue. It outlines both the shortcomings arising from the traditional ap-proach to educational processes as well as the specific types of trends and challenges formulated for the components of the education system. It also pointed to the basic technological options that are emerging from education in view of the widespread access to ever-increasing generation of ICT tools and technologies.

The goal of the research was to get an overview on the possibilities of sustainable development in relation to information and communication technologies in primary and secondary schools in Slovenia from the perspective of media ecology. The study analyses the reasons for a reorientation of the educational system and new programmes towards sustainability and relates these developments to the activities of Eco-schools in Slovenia. The findings show that the guidelines of sustainable development are included in the programmes, yet they do not encompass the possibilities opening up by new technologies. Contemporary teaching methods are not widespread due to the inadequate education and training of teachers. At the same time, numerous problems arising from the introduction of new technologies and equipment into schools are neither anticipated nor tackled in the renewed curricula, thus failing to integrate a contemporary media-ecological perspective. Judging from the roadmap documents, even after the renewal process will have been finished, the situation will hardly change unless major changes are introduced into the planned concept of renovation and additional investments of funds for equipment, the preparation of materials and, above all, teacher education are secured.

This paper presents the design and development of a virtual learning enviroment (VLE) for a M.Sc. programme on information and communication technologies (ICTs) in education for sustainable development (ESD) driven by a learning paradigm that merges three theories of learning, namely: experiential learning, constructivist learning and transformative learning (ExCon- Tra) funded by the European Commission. Learning activities were designed to offer the chance for students to interact asynchronously and synchronously, negotiate meaning and reflect on their learning and viewpoints through collaborative problem solving. The ExConTra learning process is also based on an interdisciplinary approach addressing the four pillars (environment, society, culture and economy) of sustainable development and makes use of an online course design methodology that uses four phases: needs analysis, curriculum design, development and formative evaluation. The VLE that encompasses both the curriculum programme and the online platform with its tools and online technologies merges ICTs with ESD in three ways: a) providing opportunities to target groups for reflective practice; b) using open source ICT tools and ESD-related learning objects available in the Web and c) using ICTs to develop interactive, interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary ESD learning activities

In the context of information technology development of a society requirements to professional training of teachers and forming of their competencies are increasing. The need for provision of media education consistent with challenges of an information society, organization of pedagogues’ in the field of media education training, based on media needs of the youth, development of innovative approaches and implementation of effective media education models into all the segments of education has been emphasized. Informatization is becoming a leading trend in education modernization that causes the need for advancing a level of teachers’ training, as the latter should possess information technologies. Thus, special attention should be paid to implementation of new learning forms that presuppose the use of computer resources. Ukraine requires an intensive informatization of the education system. Quite urgent for Ukrainian education system is the implementation of new multimedia technologies into the educational process of primary, secondary, high schools and higher education institutions. So, teachers’ training for the use of multimedia technologies is a topical task of teacher education. Based on the analysis of native and foreign works dedicated to the problem of use of computer technologies it has been concluded that in different countries the potential of multimedia technologies has been used since the 1970s and 80s. The experiment on the implementation of multimedia technologies into the educational process was conducted; computer programs, textbooks and methodical recommendations for teachers were developed; main directions of school informatization were outlined; the staff problem was being solved; people’s adaptation to life in an information society was launched. In the 1990s education projects were realized, the need for education informatization was reflected on subject programs; general and specific trends in the development of education informatization in different countries were emphasized.
