Abstract


Communicative and imaginative competence is important for garment-sector vocational students who must interpret designs, communicate production requirements, and solve practical problems. This study examined an integrated instructional model combining collaborative projects, interactive creative-thinking techniques, and a specialized mobile application for garment education. A quasi-experimental approach compared students in experimental and control groups at vocational institutions in Uzbekistan. Evidence was collected through competence assessments, classroom observations, project evaluations, and student feedback. The findings indicated changes in achievement-level distributions and suggested potential benefits for spatial visualization and technical communication. However, the reported statistical indicators require further verification before the intervention's effectiveness can be established conclusively. The proposed approach provides a framework for integrating professional communication, imaginative reasoning, and digital resources in vocational education.
