THE ROLE OF MODERN TECHNOLOGIES IN LEARNING FOREIGN LANGUAGES
Abstract
In the modern world, technology has become an inseparable part of human life. The process of education, especially language learning, has been greatly influenced by the development of information and communication technologies (ICT). Today, students have access to a wide range of online materials, mobile applications, and digital tools that make the process of learning a new language more interesting and productive. Language learning is no longer limited to classroom walls. Learners can now improve their listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills through interactive online activities and real communication with native speakers. The main goal of this study is to analyze the influence of modern technologies on foreign language learning and how they contribute to improving students’ linguistic competence and motivation.
