One of the most important tasks of innovative language education and language policy of Russia is to comprehend the Russian language as a powerful factor that forms a sense of human involvement in the socio-cultural creation, as well as the civilizational transformation of Russia and the world. The Russian language and culture preservation, development, and dissemination (both in arts, the cultural sector, as well as science and technology) is according to the authors an imperative of stability, security, and competitiveness of Russia in the globalizing world. A special role in determining strategies and tactics of teaching the Russian language in the paradigm of a new lifestyle of mankind and the global educational environment belongs to electronic, digital, and telecommunication technologies. The subject of the present study is the educational language process, organized based on computer (digital) technologies and the optimal implementation of the linguistic and didactic qualities of electronic learning tools. The objective of the study is to determine the goals, subject matter, methods, forms, and means of computer linguodidactics, aimed at substantiating the laws and determining effective ways of language learning by means of info-communication resources. The paper outlines the research methods of the innovative language education system as well as linguo-didactic abilities of computer tools in the formation of multilevel Russian-language communicative competence and its individual components in students. The authors suggest the ways and means of updating and enrichment of professional-pedagogical competence of the Russian language teachers in the use of information and communication technologies, as well as in defining the prospects in the educational interaction (electronic, network) of teachers and students, contributing to maintaining the competitiveness of domestic language education and the pedagogical community.
