Abstract

Various aspects of the problem of distance learning of foreign languages in higher educational institutions in the context of informatization of domestic education are considered. A critical review of the current state of the problem under discussion is presented, the accumulated practical experience is summarized. Special attention is paid to how the distance format affects the change in the nature of communication between students and between a teacher and a student, as well as how the role of reflection increases in the improvement of various aspects of teaching foreign languages. The specifics of the conceptual apparatus and scenarios of interaction of participants in the educational process in the implementation of distance learning technologies are considered, their strengths and weaknesses are highlighted. Based on the reasoning about how electronic educational platforms are changing the modern educational reality in general and teaching foreign languages in particular, important observations related to the competence of this teacher and conclusions about the need to develop a distance education system capable of making the learning process lively and authentic are made.
