The article considers issues covering teaching Russian as a foreign language in a technical university in the preparatory department, using the new online course. The process of production of the online course is revealed. The course structure is described, which includes the following sections: «New Vocabulary», «Reading a Text», «New Grammar», «Listening to Texts and Dialogues», «Complete the Tests», «Interesting Facts about Russia». We mention three possible scenarios of using the online course: 1) an independent distance course (without teachers’ participation); 2) a supplementary electronic resource (in traditional full-time studies offline, with teachers’ participation); 3) blended learning. The methodology of experimental teaching in the “blended learning system” with the use of the online course “Russian as a Foreign Language: Beginners’ Level” is described. Thorough information is given on preparing the experiment, its contingent, conditions, and duration of studies. We mention the peculiarities of studies online versus studies offline. We take into consideration the methods of students’ progress control: they are both traditional (written homework was checked by teachers), and automatized (online tests were checked by computer). We analyze the experimental methodology results, and the advantages of both self-studies and classwork. The article concludes with the prospects of the online course “Russian as a Foreign Language” in a technical university and the further development of the following courses: “The Introductory Course of Phonetics and Graphics”, “The Scientific Speech Course”.

The digitalization of higher education, the emerging trends for further improvement and implementation of e-learning and distance learning technologies have revealed the need to rethink the practices of implementing vocationally-oriented language training at a university and have led to the transition to a blended learning model. The purpose of the research: to reveal the potential of blended learning in foreign language teaching. The research methods: the method of selection, generalization and dissemination of advanced pedagogical experience. The research results: the potential of blended learning in foreign language teaching has been substantiated; the studies related to the problem of blended learning in foreign language teaching has been analyzed. Integration of digital educational resources and e-learning technologies (VLE and MIND) in the implementation of a mixed format of professionally oriented language training at a technical university expands the possibilities for creating a digital educational space as an integral component of educational activities in modern conditions. Key conclusions: Blended learning allows you to solve the problem of improving the quality of vocationally-oriented language training and the organization of academic interaction in a rotational mode; a meta-subject approach in teaching a foreign language for professional purposes creates opportunities for using existing and developing your own digital educational resources (CER); integration of ICT, allows you to achieve a qualitatively new level of delivery of educational content.

Постановка задачи. Изучение предмета «Иностранный язык» в техническом университете предполагает усвоение обучающимися терминологической лексики в соответствии с выбранной специальностью. Опыт преподавания показывает, что студенты испытывают трудности, связанные с запоминанием терминологических единиц и употреблением их в речи. Использование на занятиях по иностранному языку приема обучения терминологической лексике посредством опоры на внутреннюю форму данных лексических единиц позволяет оптимизировать процесс усвоения обучающимися специальных терминов. Результаты. Проведенное исследование дает основание утверждать, что анализ внутренней формы образованных семантическим способом англоязычных терминов специальности «Автомобильные дороги» позволяет выявить деривационно-ассоциативную связь терминологических единиц с лексикой общенационального языка, послужившей основой для вторичной номинации. Данные лексические единицы в большинстве случаев представляют собой хорошо знакомые студентам слова, обозначающие части тела человека и объекты, находящиеся в его близком окружении : одежду, посуду, инструменты, явления природы, представителей животного мира и т.д. Выводы. Ознакомление студентов дорожно-строительной специальности с внутренней формой изучаемых англоязычных терминов, выявление ассоциативных связей терминологических единиц со знакомыми студентам и широкоупотребительными словами общенационального языка, а также выполнение в аудитории специально разработанных тренировочных упражнений помогают снять трудности усвоения обучающимися терминологической лексики и облегчают ее запоминание. Statement of the problem. The study of the “Foreign Language” subject at a technical university involves students’ learning the terminology in accordance with the chosen specialty. The teaching practice shows that students experience the difficulties associated with memorising terminological units and using them in the speech. Applying the method of teaching the terminology based on the internal form of these lexical units at foreign language classes makes it possible to optimise the process of learning special terms by students. Results. The research that has been carried out gives reason to argue that the analysis of the internal form of the English “Automobile roads” specialty terms created in the semantic way makes it possible to reveal the derivational and associative relations of the terminological units with the national language words which served as the basis for the secondary nomination. In most cases, these lexical units are the words that are well known by the students and indicate the parts of man’s body and the objects that are present in man’s immediate environment: clothing, dishes, tools, phenomena of the nature, representatives of the animal world, etc. Conclusion. Introducing the internal form of the studied English terms to the road construction specialty students, identifying the associative relations of the terminological units with the well known to the students and widely used words of the national language, fulfilling the specially developed training exercises in the classroom help the students to overcome the difficulties of learning the terminology and to facilitate its memorization.

The article attempts to identify effective methods of teaching Ukrainian as a foreign language and to base them on the European experience. The most commonly used methods in the European practice of foreign language teaching are characterized: communicative, project, audio-lingual, distance, intensive and blended learning. The advantages of the blended learning system are examined. An interpretation of the term "blended learning" is proposed. The features of the organization of online learning and the structure of blended learning are described. The data of the conducted survey are presented: a) teachers conducting classes in Ukrainian as a foreign language; b) foreign students from different countries. Questionnaire was developed for the survey. The article proposes some tasks for teachers of Ukrainian as a foreign language, commenting on the specifics of different models of blended learning. Based on the results of the survey, the respondents outlined effective methods of teaching a foreign language, identified factors that influence the use of the blended learning model of future doctors when teaching Ukrainian as a foreign language. The advantages and prospects of using blended learning in the educational process of a higher medical institution are analyzed. The results of the study strongly suggest that the blended learning model opens up new possibilities for presenting educational material in a new and accessible form for students.
