Online learning is one of the most rapidly growing trends in educational use of digital technologies. The article touches upon the importance of MyEnglishLab as one of the newest tools for blended English language learning. Due to the pandemics of the 2020 many learners began to implement different tools of digital technology to an increasing extent. An effective and appropriate tool for learning English aimed at developing communication skills allows to increase individualization of educational activity, to optimize mastering language structures and grammatical rules, and also to overcome some obstacles of both oral and written competences of the students. An interactive platform is one of the newest blended learning tools that combines different English language learning activities in a variety of formats. It is a web-based system providing learners 24 hours a day, 7 days a week online access to the teacher-managed course content, supports different learning styles, provides students with a large number of supervised practices. The platform MyEnglishLab contains lexical and grammatical tasks, audio materials listening and reading as well as watching videos. Tasks are performed in three stages: the formation of lexical and grammatical skills; improvement of language skills and using those phrases and sentences that were consolidated in the first stage in the dialogue with a computer; development of skills to use lexical and grammatical knowledge acquired during the previous two stages. The platform has options for choosing the number of attempts to perform both test exercises and training. In this article we present a research carried out among the freshmen of Yerevan State University Faculty of European Languages and Communication.

The article discusses the theoretical aspects of the organization of blended foreign language learning caused COVID-19 under the conditions of the quarantine. We analyzed different points of view on the process of using mobile applications in the study of foreign languages. We considered the possibilities of four mobile applications Duolingo, Simpler, Hello Talk, EWA with their main advantages and disadvantages. In the context of the research topic, conducted a survey of first and fifth-year students, in which 100 students took part from Karazin and Berdyansk universities. The survey was conducted among students of philological specialties in order to determine the most acceptable conditions for using mobile applications in the process of learning foreign languages. The survey results showed that students, in general, positively perceive the use of mobile applications in the educational process, taking into account the possibility of teachers’ support. The study showed the need to use mobile applications in the process of learning foreign languages in the context of the introduction of quarantine and blended learning as a forceful way to organize effective work with students.

Công nghệ đã và đang thay đổi mạnh mẽ cách thức dạy và học ngôn ngữ; nhờ đó những xu thế học tập mới trong giảng dạy tiếng Anh đã được ra đời, ví dụ Blended Learning (Học tập kết hợp) và Computer-Assisted Language Learning (Học ngôn ngữ được máy tính hỗ trợ)… Phương pháp này ngày càng trở nên phổ biến, dẫn đến hàng loạt cuốn sách được xuất bản gần đây, trong đó có bộ giáo trình Life đã xây dựng hệ thống bài tập của họ trên nền trực tuyến. Tuy nhiên, hiện nay chưa có nhiều nghiên cứu về những thuận lợi và hạn chế của hệ thống bài tập này đối với giáo viên và sinh viên trong bối cảnh cụ thể. Bài báo được viết với mục đích bổ sung thêm một cách đánh giá đối với hệ thống giao bài trực tuyến của bộ giáo trình Life. Thông qua công cụ phỏng vấn giáo viên và phiếu điều tra dành cho sinh viên tại Khoa Ngoại ngữ - Đại học Thái Nguyên, nghiên cứu đã chỉ ra những lợi ích và cả những hạn chế của phần mềm giao bài trực tuyến theo giáo trình Life. Kết quả nghiên cứu đã cung cấp cho nhà quản lý những đề xuất để cải tiến hệ thống giao bài trực tuyến cũng như cách thức giúp giáo viên tận dụng tốt hơn những mặt lợi ích của hệ thống giao bài cho sinh viên.

Positive Effect

This chapter examines the related literatures and theories for technology-enhanced language instruction. Blended learning, as computer-assisted instruction, has a positive effect on students' learning performances. The research on long-term applications of blended learning in language instruction in middle schools and its effects is hard to find. Nevertheless, some defects exist in the few studies. In China there are much fewer empirical studies on the effects of blended learning on language learning represented by examination scores. Vocabulary learning is essential to English learning and requires the mastery of the pronunciation, spelling, and meaning. Computer-assisted vocabulary learning can provide choice and cloze questions regarding the pronunciation, spelling, and meaning, and give the students instant feedback and grading. The literature review suggests that a quasi-experiment for at least one school term or even longer time in different schools located in various areas is valuable to assure the results' reliability.

Pros And Cons

This study investigated Task-Based Language Learning (TBLL) through Digital StoryTelling (DST) in a blended learning environment. Twenty-six Turkish university-level students prepared a DST individually and shared it with their peers in an online discussion platform. Each evaluated and graded others’ DST performance based on an assessment scale. After this, they performed their stories in the classroom and similarly assessed their peer’s performances. Ultimately, they were asked to give their self-reflection on the pros and cons of performing tasks online and in the classroom. Findings showed that TBLL through DST was more favoured than storytelling in the classroom and helped them to improve their speaking skills. The study suggested DST could be a positive approach in language learning and should be explored further in other language skills and multiple contexts.
