Abstract. Globalization of mining education imposes new requirements for mining engineer competence. Nowadays linguistic competence is one of the most demanded. It guarantees technical university graduates the possibility of global employment, on the one hand, and the chance of getting cutting edge education in leading training centers of the world, on the other hand. Distance education is actively developing all over the world and is widely used in technical colleges and universities, as well. Interactive method that involves active engagement of students appears to be of the greatest interest due to introduction of modern information and communication technologies for distance learning. The paper presents step-by-step implementation of several interactive technologies (jigsaw, case study, brainstorming, and role-play) that can be used in distance education in the process of teaching subjects in foreign languages with the help of information and communication technologies. In response to the changes in the conditions of educational process, the implementation of the methods has been transformed to a combination of traditional (in-class) and distance (online) learning.
