application of digital technologies in teaching a foreign language in a blended learning environment

Abstract

Currently, many different approaches to higher education are being discussed with the requirements of the educational authorities. The importance and necessity of meeting the educational needs of the population, ensuring access to quality education and integrating education and science and technology are usually emphasised. Purpose of the study: to identify the specific features of the use of electronic textbooks (interactive publications) for teaching a foreign language on different online platforms in a distance learning environment. A systematic review can be explained as a research method and process for identifying and critically evaluating relevant studies and for collecting and analysing data from identified studies. Educational materials need to be used on time and the spot. The Pinboard method can be used to increase the efficiency of the lesson. The word "pinboard" comes from the English language and means "pinboard backing", "pin board". The essence of this teaching method is that discussion and learning dialogue are connected practically. Its strengths are its developmental and educational functions. Students will develop a culture of communication and discussion, the ability to express themselves not only orally, but also in writing, and the ability to think logically and systematically.

Implementation of a System for Assessing the Quality of Spoken English Pronunciation Based on Cognitive Heuristic Computing

“…e introduction of background knowledge of the target population's native language can improve the system's pronunciation quality assessment, because by summarizing the observations between the user's first and second language, it is possible to understand the common errors that occur when such first language users learn a second language, thus improving the accuracy of the system [12]. However, it is generally preferred to develop systems that do not rely on knowledge of the first language, which is more conducive to the commercial implementation of the product and avoids a lot of trouble in dealing with languages like Chinese where multiple dialects exist [13].…”

“…There are plenty of applications of blended learning in language and literature learning in different contexts around the world [46,47,48]. Not only has the language learning curriculum exploited the opportunities of B-learning, but the fields of science have also welcomed the exploitation of B-learning to make the educational practice more live and flexible [49,50,51,52].…”

“…Numerous studies have explored the implementation of blended learning (BL) in language acquisition [39,40,47,48,70,71]. Many universities have already tried to apply BL in educational settings for teaching and learning English in tertiary institutions [72].…”

“…However, the studied literature shows that some fields of social science exploited blended learning to be a more commonly used technique for running educational activities than other fields (majors) [35,36,37,38]. The fields that utilized the blended learning model more frequently are foreign language teaching and learning [39,40,47,48,71], education and research [26,53,177,178] anthropology [87], and information and communication technologies [58]. There are many other fields of study in social science that have not received much attention from researchers, such as political science, economics, and many more [179].…”

The impact of mobile-assisted project-based learning on developing EFL students' speaking skills

“…Second is the possibility of interacting with the surroundings through a global positioning system (GPS). Consequently, these devices open new learning opportunities, create a more flexible atmosphere, provide constant and fast access to information, and enhance self-learning abilities (Ihnatova et al, 2021). In addition, they facilitate teaching students with exceptional needs and promote virtual classrooms where learners and teachers can interact in real-time (Kudratilloev & Akhmedov, 2021).…”
