The article analyzes the implementation of modern internet tools into the foreign language learning process during remote studying process. The paper presents the influence of modern digital technologies on the educational process and its participants concluding the inevitable necessity of using digital tools for effective organization of online study. Developed in the second half of the 20th century, CALL (Computer Assisted Language Learning) systems have been successfully used in the language learning environment. Providing teachers and learners with some obvious benefits like better personalization, higher motivation and automation, early CALLs demanded a lot of resources and were quite complicated in developing, installing and using. With the technological progress and emerging of the Internet, these systems evolved into modern digital user-friendly tools turning conventional learning process into entertainment environment. Modern web based learning systems has provided the unlimited possibilities for learners and teachers alike. Language learners can design their own studying process by choosing a school, a place, time, and pace for their study. New technologies have benefited teachers greatly providing them with effective tools for creating, storing and delivering their studying materials. The benefits and drawbacks of the modern internet-tools for developing different language skills as well as for summative and formative assessment has been analyzed in the paper.

The article considers the issue of taking into account the psychological characteristics of students in the study of a foreign language for professional purposes. It was analyzed the methodological aspects of taking into account psychological features in teaching a foreign language. Emphasis is placed on the need and importance of taking into account the psychological characteristics of students in the process of learning a foreign language for professional purposes. The main psychological factors of learning a foreign language are identified. Among the main psychological factors are: motivation and interest in language learning, temperament, memory, ability to learn languages, language barrier. Motivation is a major factor in language learning. Only the motivation to succeed can bring results in language learning. Psychological comfort in the classroom is a way to realize their importance in society, trying to get the most information for successful self-development. Under the condition of complete psychological comfort, the intensive development of mental processes and imagination, the improvement of memory, and the ability to communicate begin. Activating memorization processes also plays an important role in foreign language learning. The human brain is a complex mechanism and the main indicator of its efficiency is attention. If attention is reduced, a person can hardly concentrate. The article states that the success of learning a foreign language is determined by a combination of factors: motivational, emotional, cognitive, linguistic, psychophysiological and interactive. This means that the psychological aspects of learning a foreign language determine not only the goals and objectives of teaching, motivation, interest of students, but also the methods and approaches to learning. Emphasis is placed on the need to constantly search for new opportunities and ways to form and improve methods of learning a foreign language for professional purposes. The leading idea of the article is that taking into account the psychological, pedagogical and individual characteristics of students in the study of a foreign language for professional purposes allows to introduce new technologies into the educational process, increase learning efficiency, develop language skills and competencies, develop creative abilities, increase independent and extracurricular activities.

В настоящее время исследование процесса геймификации обучения концентрируется на трех аспектах: систематизация и развитие принципов моделирования процесса игрового пространства, позволяющих достичь высокого уровня вовлеченности обучаемых в процесс получения знаний; оценка уровня эффективности вариантов технического обеспечения процесса геймификации обучения; разработка методики и методологии оценки эффективности процесса геймификации. Понимание важности проблем управления мотивацией студентов, обучающихся иностранному языку, а также задач по обеспечению высокого уровня вовлеченности в процесс обучения, делает вопросы, связанные с геймификацией курсов иностранного языка в неязыковых вузах, актуальными и перспективными для изучения. Однако, большая часть исследований в этой области ограничивает свою предметную область вопросами, связанными с возможностью интеграции дидактических задач с игровыми технологиями. В связи с этим перспективы геймификации курса иностранного языка детерминированы рамками структурной геймификации, то есть частичным внедрением игровых практик в процесс обучения иностранному языку. В такой ситуации положительные эффекты геймификации процесса обучения иностранному языку могут носить временный и локальный характер, а оценка его эффективности продемонстрирует низкий потенциал в решении задач по формированию коммуникативных компетенций. В статье обосновывается необходимость исследования феномена содержательной геймификации, относительно которой, как правило, и описываются все положительные эффекты организации процесса обучения (самостоятельность, автономность, оптимальный уровень имитации профессиональной деятельности и т.д.). Авторы полагают, что содержательная геймификация процесса обучения должна быть детерминирована не только принципами и алгоритмами педагогического дизайна (корреляцией дидактических задач обучения с техниками/технологиями обучения в зависимости от их дидактических функций и в соответствии с формируемыми компетенциями обучающихся). Оценивая важность вопросов, связанных с проблемами формирования полилингвальной личности, особенностями ее существования в поликультурной профессиональной среде, а также спецификой профессиональных коммуникаций в сети Интернет, авторы обосновывают необходимость разработки принципов содержательной геймификации процесса обучения иностранному языку, основанных на закономерностях построения электронного профессионального дискурса. Currently, the study of the process of learning gamification focuses on three aspects: systematization and development of the principles of modeling the process of playing space, allowing to achieve a high level of involvement of trainees in the process of obtaining knowledge; assessment of the level of efficiency of technical support options of the training gamification process; development of a methodology and methodology for assessing the effectiveness of the gamification process. Understanding the importance of managing the motivation of students who study a foreign language, as well as the tasks of ensuring a high level of involvement in the learning process, makes the issues related to the gamification of foreign language courses in non-language universities relevant and promising for study. However, most research in this area limits subject area to issues related to the possibility of integrating didactic tasks with gaming technologies. As a result, the prospects for gamification of a foreign language course are determined by the framework of structural gamification, that is, the partial introduction of game practices in the process of teaching a foreign language. In such a situation, the positive effects of gamification of the process of teaching a foreign language may be temporary and local, and an assessment of its effectiveness will demonstrate low potential in solving the problems of forming communicative competencies. The article justifies the need to study the phenomenon of meaningful gamification, which, as a rule, describes all the positive effects of organizing the training process (independence, autonomy, the optimal level of imitation of professional activity, etc.). The authors believe that the meaningful gamification of the learning process should be determined not only by the principles and algorithms of pedagogical design (correlation of didactic learning tasks with teaching techniques/technologies depending on their didactic functions and in accordance with the students’ formed competencies). Assessing the importance of issues related to the problems of the formation of a polylingual personality, the peculiarities of its existence in a multicultural professional environment, as well as the specifics of professional communications on the Internet, the authors substantiate the need to develop principles of meaningful gamification of the process of teaching a foreign language, based on the laws of setting up an electronic professional discourse.

The leading idea of the article is the assertion that foreign language as a discipline has a huge socializing potential, as in the process of a foreign language learning, not only the active development of natural resources, abilities, initiative, independence, take place, but also, assimilation of generally accepted in a society socio- cultural rules and moral norms, which plays a crucial role in the process of socialization is activated. Since the main goal of the educational process in foreign languages is the formation of the very communicative skills, its contribution to the process of socialization of a man is indisputable.

Using mobile devices around the world has already become commonplace. There are a huge number of applications that greatly simplify everyday life: from simple planning of actions and events to paying for goods by simply touching the terminal with a mobile device. That is why the problem of introducing a mobile training application into the educational process is quite relevant. The purpose of this study is to increase the efficiency of the learning process through the use of the adaptive mobile application CATS. The proposed adaptability algorithm will allow you to create a unique training program that will build on existing knowledge and the level of perception of learning material for students. It is proposed to use the analysis of expert systems as mathematical methods. By formalizing the intellectual processes that are carried out by both the teacher and the student, it is possible to automate a certain part of the teacher’s functions, reduce manual labor costs, which will make iteasier to control the educational process, as well as make the learning process more effective. The software of the mobile application was created in the environment of Microsoft Visual Studio Community (Mac) in C# programming language and Xamarin framework. The proposed development is implemented in the educational process of the Belarusian National Technical University, covers all the main components of the learning process, including working with electronic educational and methodical complexes, passing tests, downloading the required information. The mobile application allows you to adapt to various sizes of devices, implemented using modern technologies with adaptation for Android and iOS operating systems.

The research focuses on substantiating the necessity of adjusting the process of teaching and learning a foreign language at universities to the needs of ethnic minorities under the conditions of online training, introduced due to the Covid-19 pandemic. We have studied a new role of a foreign language university teacher working with ethnic minority students, which is relevant for Transcarpathia, in particular, as a multiethnic region of Ukraine. In our research, we have used the method of analogical reasoning, communicative, social and psychological one, methods of observation, content analysis, personality study, sociometry, role behaviour study etc. The materials studied in the course of our research allow us to draw the following conclusions. We believe that, under the present conditions of providing educational services online, only the search for new forms and methods of teaching as well as new lesson content will contribute to the implementation of an effective personality-oriented approach in a foreign language learning process. On the one hand, a modern teacher must not only have excellent pedagogical skills, but also be familiar with the latest online teaching technologies, it is impossible to imagine a full-fledged educational process without. Accordingly, the syllabi need to be updated, taking into account the requirements of the time and the experience gained. On the other hand, students can form their own electronic databases for learning and improving their foreign language skills, in particular, use literature in their native languages, which might become an impetus and a motivation for ethnic minority students to learn foreign languages with greater enthusiasm.
