Abstract
The article is devoted to the use of online technologies and strategies in learning a foreign language. In particular, in close correlation with full-time education, the article considers the leading strategies and technologies used by higher education institutions in building online foreign language courses. These are mainly lectures, discussions, games, simulations, blog technologies, wiki technologies, etc. The article mentions the work of the world's leading online universities. Quotes from their supervisors and lecturers are given, which analyze the main concepts that distinguish or, conversely, resemble online and offline learning. We can say that today the technology has reached a sufficient level for students to receive a proper education, even in distance learning. Even more, thanks to the synchronous and asynchronous method of teaching, students get additional opportunities that are not always available in the classroom. However, it is worth noting that mastering, selecting and successfully using existing technologies is another challenge for teachers working online.
The article also discusses the advantages and disadvantages that accompany online learning. The article analyzes the methods and means of learning a foreign language online. According to the author of the article, the number of online courses, online faculties and online universities will grow steadily every year. Because they do not require significant investment and allow people to be educated regardless of their geographical location. However, online education relies heavily on traditional education, it creates space for the preservation, development and improvement of traditional learning models, as well as selectivity in choosing more effective methods.
