The article deals with the problem of CLIL elements integration when teaching students of non-linguistic specialities. Main approaches to the definition of this teaching method are given. It is found that different authors consider CLIL as an educational approach, special education techniques, flexible curricular etc., the main purpose of CLIL methodology is to create the link between the study of the foreign language and the content of the students’ major discipline. The necessity of the IT implementation into the educational process has been substantiated (it allows to reduce the unproductive costs of the teacher's labour, gives students wide scope to a freely choose their own trajectory, increases the efficiency and objectivity of monitoring and evaluating learning outcomes, promotes individualization of educational activities, etc.).We have to use IT technologies as they help improve and diversify students’ work. Precisely, when working with students we often use Moodle platform as it provides unlimited opportunities for both students and teachers. It is found that Moodle platform allows developing reading, listening, writing, and grammar skills. Some examples of how to work using Moodle platform is given in the article. It is shown that such parts of Moodle platform as Chat and Forum are of great interest for both foreign language teachers and students. For those students who officially work or are ill, the Assignment module is of particular interest.

The article deals with the study of the Old English syntactic construction «beon/wesan + Participle with the ending ‑ende» and the Middle English combination be with preposition on(a) and verbal noun in terms of their origin; the consideration of the process of formation of continuous forms in Old English, Middle English and Early New English periods on the basis of the Gospel translations: Anglo-Saxon translation 995; Wycliffe 1389; Tyndale 1526; Authorized Version of King Jacob 1611. Different views on the origin of continuous forms in English are analyzed. The process of formation of continuous forms is traced taking into account their functional load in language. The role of verbal nouns with the preposition on(a) in certain communicative situations is defined. The development of continuous forms is considered from the point of view of functionality of the existing variants, emerging as a result of the influence of linguistic and extralinguistic factors. Contacts with Celtic languages and the result of their influence on continuous forms of English verbs are studied in the periods under consideration. The conclusion is made that the Old English construction «beon/wesan + Participle with the ending ‑ende» can be considered as the prototype of modern continuous forms, but there is a possibility of its merging with the Middle English combination «be + preposition on(a) + verbal noun». Widespread in oral language, this combination only accelerated the development of continuous forms in English. Prospects for researching continuous forms of the English verb provide its further consideration from the point of view of system-functional approach that is a base of historical sociolinguistics
