Foreign Experiences In Developing Research Competencies Of Prospective Teachers Through Digital Technologies

Abstract

This article analyzes foreign experiences in the use of digital technologies for developing research competencies among prospective teachers. In the context of the 21st-century digital transformation of education, teacher education systems require future educators to engage in scientific inquiry, critical thinking, and innovative approaches to teaching and learning. The study scientifically substantiates the role of technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning, Big Data Analytics, and Network Analysis in enhancing the research potential of future teachers. In particular, the capabilities of interactive platforms such as Mentimeter, Kialo Edu, Sciwheel, and Zotero AI plugins are highlighted as effective tools for fostering competencies in scientific inquiry, logical reasoning, source management, evidence-based analysis, and reflective thinking.
