INTERAKTYWNE TECHNOLOGIE W NAUCE POLSKIEJ LITERATURY NA PRZYKŁADZIE OPOWIADAŃ ZOFII NAŁKOWSKIEJ „MEDALIONY”

Abstract

The article explores the role of interactive technologies in the development of students’ competences in foreign literature classes, based on Zofia Nałkowska’s short story cycle “Medallions”. It is emphasized that the modern school, oriented toward fostering critical thinking and emotional competence, including emotional intelligence, requires active teaching methods that ensure interaction between the student, the text, the author, and the cultural context. Interactive approaches are viewed as a means of transforming a traditional lesson into a dynamic space for the co-construction of meaning, enhancing reading motivation and empathy. The study employs a комплекс of methods, including cultural, pedagogical, and descriptive analysis, content analysis of texts, as well as observation of the educational process during teaching practice. It is determined that interactive forms of work – group discussions, role-playing activities, and project-based tasks – activate cognitive engagement, contribute to the development of communicative and critical skills, stimulate students’ intrinsic motivation, and foster the ability to argue and defend their own viewpoints. The findings show that the use of interactive technologies in teaching “Medallions” allows not only for a deeper understanding of the literary text and its socio-historical context, but also for grasping the emotional logic of the characters. Role-playing and projectbased tasks promote the development of empathy and moral reflection, while group discussions help students recognize the diversity of perspectives and develop their own critical judgments. Practical recommendations for teachers include combining text analysis, discussions, and creative projects to ensure the comprehensive development of students’ reading and emotional competences. It is demonstrated that interactive learning in literature integrates pedagogical, psychological, and cultural-value dimensions, ensuring the effectiveness of the educational process and forming active, thoughtful, and responsible readers. Prospective directions include further research on comprehensive models of interactive learning, comparative analysis of foreign and Ukrainian experiences, and evaluation of the impact of interactive practices on the development of students’ key competencies
