Abstract

The article deals with the peculiarities of approaches to teaching mathematical disciplines in higher military educational institutions (HMEI) using interactive lectures in English. The authors highlight the main ways and problems of translating mathematical terms in Moodle. Knowledge of mathematical terms is important when taking courses abroad for a deep understanding of specialised disciplines. In addition, it allows you to have a deeper understanding of statistics, budget discussions, attending international conferences, etc.

Military cooperation with partner countries, primarily NATO member states, in repelling Russian aggression has put on the agenda not only knowledge of English within a general course, but also knowledge of the relevant terminology for understanding professional disciplines. A thorough mastery of specialised disciplines is impossible without knowledge of fundamental disciplines and especially mathematics, which is the language of the hard sciences. With this in mind, it has become a common practice for our military specialists to take tests not only in English but also in mathematics when they arrive to study abroad. The Moodle system provides a convenient set of tools for solving this issue in various forms of education (face-to-face, online, blended). Filling Moodle with English-language content is important for university students in terms of their professional training as specialists who are ready to take various courses in partner countries.

The use of Moodle distance learning ensures additional opportunities for higher education institutions: to provide educational materials to cadets in English, to access the content of the platform at any time, to place detailed, additional materials in the main program, and to create a high-tech information and communication educational and scientific space. A distance learning course for mastering Mathematics in English has been developed using the built-in modules of the Moodle platform.
