Abstract


Language skills have always represented an integral part of the key military competencies. In order to modernize and enhance the foreign language education of future officers, a research project has been carried out and selected aspects of this project have been shared in this paper.  It is based on the theoretical and empirical knowledge of foreign language education at the Armed Forces Academy of gen. M. R. Štefánik in Slovakia and the transition from on-site learning to e-learning with particular focus on multimodality in foreign language education.

Keywords
