“…M. Mateos-Sanchez and ed. indicate that chat bots combine two important components: they are multitasking, as they allow to automate a number of processes (consulting, conducting control activities and exams, checking test results, conducting surveys of students to identify weaknesses in educational programs), and convenient for interaction with the user due to a comfortable communication format that simulates a conversation with an interlocutor [19]. These qualities of chat bot applications make them an indispensable tool for conducting educational programs and bring the quality of education, including a foreign language, to a new level.…”

The problem and the aim of the study. Training of specialists in informatization of education involves formation of competences in development of software tools and automated systems and development of the foreign language communicative competence. Formation of appropriate qualities in the conditions of higher education is complicated by a number of problems. The authors propose to organize project activities to create dialogue programs (training bots) to improve foreign language training of future specialists. Research methods. The construction of a chat bot takes place during teamwork and foreign language communication. The authors' testing is carried out, which includes checking knowledge of syntax, vocabulary and grammar, skills of professionally oriented communication and digital skills. The experimental study was carried out at Vyatka State University during the study of the discipline "Foreign Language", "Development and Use of Computer Games in Education". 43 first- and second-year students of the training program 44.03.01 Pedagogical education (Master's degree programme) were involved in foreign language communication with the support of automated systems. The average age of the respondents was 25 (90% female and 10% male). When constructing chat bots, the BorisBot resource is used. Fisher's test was used to find out statistically significant differences. Results. The students studied services for creating chat bots, the didactic potential and functionality of the dialogue programs. The students of the experimental group used them to do professionally oriented and foreign language communication tasks. Statistically significant differences were revealed in the changes φCRIT=1.64<φEMP=2.514. Conclusion. The features of the presented version of using chat bots when teaching a foreign language are described: teamwork, using templates and scripts, choosing project topics. The problematic questions are formulated, the answers to which make it possible to determine the directions of work on designing chat bots: discussing the development goal and didactic goal, modeling scenarios of foreign language interaction, etc.

“…In the same way, there is a chatbot for educational inclusion for the population with intellectual disabilities due to the limitations of social life and the little support that inclusive education has in certain social aspects. This tool was developed by the authors [15], with the objective of improving social skills, through a conversation between the user and the chatbot, facilitating the learning of social skills through innovation, inclusion and quality. Concluding that this type of tools helps to focus and enhance the skills of people with social disabilities, such as communication and social skills.…”

Currently in Latin America hearing impairment is one of the main problems of society, especially in Peru, where there is a large percentage of hearing-impaired children without receiving some kind of adequate and viable education for their growth, being the main reason the little support by the government and the lack of technological tools to support inclusive education. For this reason, the present research work is generated, which has as main motive to support and help the benefit of educational inclusion and even better technological development for fundamental problems in society, especially those that affect the educational life. Therefore, the development of a mobile application aimed at educational inclusion for students, whether or not they are hearing impaired, was proposed. Therefore, a form was applied to 40 people, including parents of hearing-impaired students and teachers, in order to collect main requirements. In addition, the cascade methodology was used, being the most appropriate for the development of the mobile application, providing agility of development by having clear and precise requirements. Finally, it was concluded that the mobile application will generate different adequate and viable benefits for an inclusive educational environment for students with hearing impairment, through the development of a form established and directed to 50 people, among them the 40 people of the first form and 10 people specialized in the development and design of mobile applications.

Problem and goal. The training of future teachers in the field of education involves the formation of competencies in the development of software for various purposes, the design of automated control systems for real objects. The development of relevant qualities in the conditions of higher education is complicated by a number of problems of various nature. The authors suggest to improve the training of future specialists to organize project activities of students to create dialogue programs (training bots). Methodology. Project-based training is used for the formation of competencies in the field for informatization of education, obtaining in-demand soft skills, team building. The construction of a chatbot takes place in teamwork. The experiment involved 43 students of the North Caucasus Federal University in the direction of training 44.03.05 “Pedagogical Education with Two Training Profiles.” The assessment of the quality of educational results was carried out using the author's testing of 10 tasks (“credited”/“not credited”). Fischer's criterion was used to establish statistically significant differences. Results. Students studied the services for creating chatbots, the didactic potential and functionality of the received programs, used them to solve problems. Statistically significant differences were revealed in the changes that occurred in the system in terms of the quality of vocational training. The features of the presented variant of the organization of educational activities for the creation of chatbots are described: teamwork, the use of templates and scripts, and the choice of project topics. Conclusion. Problematic questions are formulated, the answers to which allow us to determine the directions of work on the construction of chatbots: discussion of the development goal and didactic goal, the use of blocks and actions, modeling interaction scenarios, etc.
