Abstract. It is revealed that specific forms of a simulation game combined with some peculiarities of training sessions in organizational systems could result in developing adaptable simulation models of a business situation. It is recommended to use a cognitive model in problem analysis of organizational systems, which allows switching from cognitive to simulation models naturally still being in visual topological descriptions. The AnyLogic software platform was chosen for developing a model which provides ample opportunities for creating an innovative educational environment with the elements of game simulations and AI. Cognitive analysis of a game learning process has revealed that the latter should have one cycle of a business game with two interactive nodes to introduce a host and a player into the game. It is noted that business games focused on developing management styles in a conflict are mostly in demand. Therefore, a simulation model has been developed to train executives to counteract an organizational conflict within the variability of authoritarian, democratic and liberal management styles. The model uses a paradigm of systems dynamics and is implemented in the AnyLogic software platform notation. To set the rules, the game host in the initial state or when starting the next game cycle sets the dynamics characteristics of a process while managing the organizational structure, as well as changes characteristics values of a pre-conflict situation. In response to conflict development the player performs management using auxiliary services available to him. In fact, the model is not limited by a list of the game’s tasks or possible options for a player’s decision.

The article shows the relevance of solving the problem of conceptual analysis of traditional and digital educational structures integrated in the process of transformation, identification and evaluation of their effective interaction. It is proposed to use the methodology of the cognitive analysis that has already passed the stages of approbation in the subject environment of education. It is noted that the educational process includes continuously generated and continuously modified cycles of cognition of reality. Within the framework of generalized descriptions presented by models of cognition, a transition is naturally made from individualized cycles of cognition to a collective study of reality, in which models already control collective cognition, forming a cycle of cognition based on collective communication. An initial cognitive model has been developed which illustrates the situation that has developed in the modern educational system under the powerful influence of the "technocratic" point of view on digitalization. A cognitive model of collective cognition and communication in the digital environment is proposed, which systematically integrates three important parts from the point of view of transformational processes in education, namely, the traditional structure of cognition of reality, the newest structure of digital communication built in the paradigm of the collective subject of cognition, and, finally, the structure of strategic management based on the socio-cultural development of society and the country.

Today the process of teaching and learning is undergoing significant change resulting from the global transition of education from a classical face-to-face classroom to a new digital environment. Teaching foreign language skills, far more than teaching other applied academic skills, has been moved online. An English teacher is expected to be able to successfully deliver live online lessons. Obviously, teaching English online has both similarities and differences from traditional face-to-face teaching in the classroom. However, the success of online learning seems to depend not only on advanced conference platforms and cutting-edge technologies. First and foremost, the efficiency of online classes is determined by teachers’ ability to work in a new learning environment as well as how teachers are prepared for new challenges. Thus, teaching English online requires new professional approaches from the teacher. The paper is focused on interconnected teaching productive and receptive foreign language skills: reading, writing, speaking and listening when administering an online lesson with adult learners. Requirements to using digital.

The latest requirements for specialist training in the system of higher education in the Russian Federation call for enhancement of foreign language learningand improving foreign language teaching. The aspect of interdisciplinary link between foreign language learning and cross-cultural communication is emphasized in the article. We suggest that in order to overcome cultural and language barriers we need to actively engage experts in cross-cultural communication in foreign language teaching, particularly, for science students.
