Abstract.
In today's society, innovation technologies have spread to almost every field
of human activity, including education. This phenomenon gained special significance within
the improvement and modernization of the established educational system due to the
incorporation of innovation technologies into the educational process practice. Currently,
the issue of active integration and widespread application of innovative technologies in
education is critical. The current study investigates learning innovation technologies in
modern education.
Key words.

Introduction.
The theory of innovation in education is a new field of scientific
pedagogic knowledge; it is a paradigm of inseparable unity and interconnection of the
three main pedagogic processes in the field of education: the creation of novelties, their
mastery, and application. In other words, the study of the integration of development,
mastery, and integration of novelties is the subject of innovation theory. In education,
innovation theory refers to the innovative process in the educational system, as well as the
innovative activity, novelty, and innovative environment in which the innovative processes
take place. Innovative processes are examined from three perspectives: social-economic,
psychological, and organizational-regulatory. These factors define the overall climate and
conditions under which innovative processes occur and which either prevent or facilitate
the process. Furthermore, the innovative process is consciously regulated rather than
being spontaneous. Integrating novelties is a significant new management function.
Innovative technologies have transformed the way we teach and learn, particularly in
specialized subjects. With the advancements in technology, educators have been able to
incorporate new tools and techniques to make learning more accessible, engaging, and
effective. In this essay, we will explore some of the most innovative technologies used in
the teaching of specialized subjects.
One of the most significant ways in which technology has changed the teaching of
specialized subjects is through the use of online learning platforms. Online learning has
become increasingly popular in recent years, particularly in response to the COVID-19
pandemic. These platforms provide students with access to a wealth of resources, including
video lectures, digital textbooks, interactive quizzes, and virtual labs. Online learning has
made it possible for students to access educational materials from anywhere in the world,
at any time of day, and at their own pace. This level of flexibility has been particularly
beneficial for students who may have other commitments, such as work or family, that
would otherwise prevent them from pursuing higher education.
One of the advantages of online learning platforms is the ability to provide personalized
learning experiences for each student. For example, an online platform may use algorithms
to track a student's progress and tailor content to their learning style and level of
understanding. This type of personalized learning can be particularly effective in
specialized subjects, where students may require different levels of support and guidance
to succeed. Personalized learning can also help students stay engaged and motivated, as
they can work at their own pace and receive feedback in real-time.

Another way in which technology has impacted the teaching of specialized subjects is
through the use of gamification. Gamification refers to the integration of game-like
elements into the learning process. This technology has been particularly effective in
engaging students who may otherwise be disinterested in a particular subject. For example,
a gamified lesson on math could involve solving problems to advance to the next level,
earning rewards for correct answers, and competing against other students in a virtual
classroom. This type of interactive and immersive learning experience can be particularly
effective for younger students who are used to playing games on their phones and tablets.
Gamification has proven to be an effective tool in the teaching of specialized subjects
such as coding and computer science. In these subjects, students are required to learn
abstract concepts that can be difficult to understand. Gamification can help students
understand complex concepts by breaking them down into smaller, more manageable
tasks. By completing these tasks, students can see their progress and gain a sense of
accomplishment, which can help them stay motivated and engaged.
Another innovative technology that has had a significant impact on the teaching of
specialized subjects is virtual and augmented reality. Virtual and augmented reality refer to
computer-generated simulations that provide an immersive experience for the user. In
education, these technologies have been used to create virtual labs, simulations, and
interactive 3D models. For example, a student studying biology could use virtual reality to
explore the human body in 3D, while a student studying architecture could use augmented
reality to visualize building designs in real-world settings. This type of technology has
made it possible for students to experience concepts and ideas in a way that was previously
impossible, allowing for a deeper understanding of complex subjects.
Virtual and augmented reality has been particularly useful in the teaching of specialized
subjects that require hands-on experience, such as medicine, engineering, and architecture.
These technologies can provide students with a safe and controlled environment to
practice their skills and develop their understanding of complex concepts. By providing
students with a more realistic and engaging experience, virtual and augmented reality can
help students retain information and develop a deeper understanding of specialized
subjects.
Innovative activity is nothing more than a set of steps taken to provide an innovative
process at a specific level of education. Novelties in education manifest as the creative
exploration of new ideas and principles, which, in some cases, leads to them becoming
typical projects containing the conditions for their adaptation and application. There are
pedagogical, supplying, and administrative novelties categorized by activity type.
Innovative phenomena are classified into two types: pedagogical innovation theory
(innovations in the educational system) and innovative learning. While pedagogical
innovation theory is concerned with restructuring and modifying, improving and changing
the educational system or its individual parts, characteristics, and aspects (creating new
legal acts, new structure, models, learning paradigms, forms of integration connections,
etc.), innovation learning is defined as a specific type of knowledge mastering and as a
product of conscious, goal-oriented, and scientifically-founded activity in the educational
process. Innovative learning is currently taking the place of supportive learning. It is
regarded as the educational system's reaction to the society's transition to a higher stage of
development and to the changed educational goals. Learning that stimulates innovative
changes in the existing culture and social environment is referred to as innovative learning.
It acts as an active reaction to the problem situations that confront each individual and
society as a whole. It is called to prepare not only a "learning person", but also a "acting
person". Furthermore, all supporting learning elements are present in the innovative
process; the only question is how to define the proportion of reproductive and productive,
active and creative components.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is another innovative technology that has changed the way
specialized subjects are taught. AI refers to the ability of machines to perform tasks that
would typically require human intelligence, such as natural language processing and
decision-making. In education, AI has been used to develop personalized learning
experiences for students. For example, an AI-powered chatbot could answer students'
questions and provide personalized feedback based on their learning styles and
performance. AI has also been used to automate grading and feedback, which saves
teachers time and provides students with immediate feedback on their work.
