Linguistic training of foreign students in the context of digitalization of education

Abstract

The article is dedicated to the issue of linguistic training of foreign students in the context of the digitalization of education. The definition of the concept of "digitalization" of the educational process is analyzed, highlighting its role in fostering foreign students' cognitive interest in their academic and professional activities. Theoretical aspects of using information and digital technologies in distance learning are explored. The advantages of the Microsoft Teams online platform, built on modern information technologies, are examined. The study analyzes the process of teaching the Ukrainian language to foreign students using the latest information and computer technologies, including the Kahoot and Learning Apps platforms, the Canva service, and the Forms application in Microsoft Teams. The use of various digital technologies in Ukrainian language classes, particularly in studying the scientific style of speech, helps foreign students master terminological vocabulary, acquire lexical-grammatical and syntactic structures, and develop communication skills necessary for professional interaction.
