INNOVATIVE EDUCATIONAL ENVIRONMENT: CONCEPTUAL FOUNDATIONS AND OPERATIONAL SPECIFICS IN MEDICAL HIGHER EDUCATION
Abstract
This paper provides an in-depth critical analysis of the "Innovative Educational Environment" (IEE) within the framework of contemporary medical pedagogy. The study moves beyond the simplistic definition of digitalization, exploring the IEE as a socio-pedagogical ecosystem that integrates professional clinical standards with advanced linguistic competencies. The author examines the shift from passive didactic models to active, student-centric methodologies such as CLIL and Simulation-Based Learning. Special emphasis is placed on the challenges of implementing these innovations in medical universities, considering the highstakes nature of healthcare training and the necessity of global scientific integration.
