METHODOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF USING MODERN TECHNOLOGIES FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF ACTIVE AND PASSIVE VOCABULARY OF LANGUAGE STUDENTS IN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS

Abstract

In today's world, where technologies are constantly evolving, the use of electronic resources is becoming increasingly popular in various fields, including education. This article explores the possibilities of using modern technologies in teaching language students in higher education institutions and their impact on the development of active and passive vocabulary. The study shows that the use of electronic dictionaries, online resources, websites, and mobile applications for developing students' vocabulary positively affects the quality of education and increases vocabulary. In particular, mobile applications and online resources with dictionaries are very useful for developing both active and passive vocabulary. Such learning tools allow students to study at any convenient time and place, ensuring flexibility and efficiency in learning. However, the use of electronic resources for vocabulary development requires an individual approach to each student. Taking into account the individual characteristics of students when choosing methods and means of vocabulary development is essential since each student has their own needs and peculiarities in learning. The study's findings confirm that using modern technologies effectively improves the vocabulary of language students in higher education institutions and ensures their high-quality preparation for language practice. Moreover, the article points out that the effectiveness of using electronic resources depends on their quality and accessibility to students. It is important to consider not only the individual characteristics of students but also the possibilities and limitations of using electronic tools in a specific educational institution. One of the main advantages of using electronic resources for vocabulary development is their accessibility and convenience of use. For example, mobile applications can be used by students at any time and in any place, ensuring maximum learning efficiency. In addition, online resources and websites with dictionaries provide students with the ability to quickly and easily find the necessary words and phrases and check their meanings and usage. However, the use of electronic resources cannot entirely replace traditional ways of vocabulary development, such as reading books, articles, and other texts, as well as classes with a teacher.
