Abstract

The 21st century is the era of technology, deeply penetrating all spheres of modern life, including the spiritual and moral education of youth. Today, digital devices, the Internet, and information and communication technologies play a significant role in shaping the worldview, values, and character of young people, especially those serving in the military. This article explores the opportunities and prospects for using modern technologies in the spiritual and moral education of young military personnel. It analyzes the effectiveness of digital tools, social media, online platforms, gamification, artificial intelligence, virtual and augmented reality in promoting national values, patriotism, integrity, and discipline among youth. The article also addresses potential risks, the importance of media literacy, and the need for collaboration among educators, parents, and organizations to ensure the effective and ethical use of technology in the upbringing process. Practical recommendations are provided for the integration of innovative approaches in the military education system to develop morally strong, responsible, and patriotic young servicemen.
