Integration of technological innovations into the educational process: analysis of the impact of digital and interactive tools on the effectiveness of learning

Abstract

Technological innovations have become an integral part of the modern educational process. In the general context, the role of innovation in education is being transformed, according to the International Educational Bureau (2021), into a key axis of progressive learning, which determines, among other parameters, the representativeness and effectiveness of training programs. Various approaches to technology integration are used in the educational process. Traditional methods usually involve the use of technology to support the learning process, for example, the use of projectors, computers or electronic textbooks. Innovative methods, on the contrary, may include the use of technology to create new ways of interaction and learning, for example, through virtual reality, gamification or the use of artificial intelligence to personalize learning. Among the main digital and interactive tools used in education, virtual reality can be distinguished, which allows students to immerse themselves in the learning environment; mobile applications that provide access to learning anytime and anywhere; online platforms that offer flexible and affordable courses for distance learning. First of all, it should be noted that the integration of technological innovations into the educational process has a significant impact on the progressiveness and effectiveness of the pedagogical process. The analysis of the data showed that the use of digital educational technologies in the classroom improves the cognitive results of students by 18%, socio-emotional development by 23% and motivation by 25%.
