Abstract
<jats:p>This article addresses the urgent issue of developing students' key competencies during geometry instruction within the context of Kyrgyzstan's transition to a 12-year educational model. The author substantiates the necessity of transforming the educational paradigm from traditional knowledge accumulation to a competency-based approach that ensures the functional literacy of graduates. The paper examines in detail the "modular-nested" approach, which enables the establishment of continuous cognitive links between middle and high school levels. Special emphasis is placed on the integration of innovative pedagogical technologies: Singaporean educational structures (Think-Puzzle-Explore, Round Robin) and digital tools, including the GeoGebra dynamic environment and artificial intelligence capabilities. The practical significance of the research is illustrated through cases based on the national context (the geometry of a yurt, the architecture of Osh city), which promotes the applied nature of learning. The proposed system of criteria-based assessment and project activities allows for effective monitoring of spatial, research, and information competencies. The research results confirm that the synergy of modern methodologies and IT technologies transforms geometry into a powerful tool for analyzing reality and preparing students for the challenges of a technological future.</jats:p>
