Abstract

The question of the use of information and communication technologies in teaching students of technical universities to read authentic texts in English is raised. The subject of the study was multimedia technologies in teaching reading in English to students of an agrarian university in the classroom. The purpose of the study was to provide a justification for the effectiveness of the use of information and communications technology in teaching reading English texts, as well as the study of information and communications technology on the example of the domestic iSpring Suite 11 program. Using the survey and observation method, as well as the systematization of available data within the framework of our question, and based on experience, it was concluded that the use of modern interactive multimedia technologies increases motivation to learn a foreign language, and also has a positive effect on the results of students. The analysis of the papers on our issue showed that the use of presentations in the classroom increases the level of cognitive activity, enhancing visual perception among students, and facilitates the assimilation of educational material. Teachers are invited to actively introduce information and communications technology into the processes of classroom and extracurricular work. The use of programs based on the Microsoft PowerPoint functional base is recommended. The importance of teaching reading as one of the leading types of speech activity in the preparation of graduates of agrarian universities is emphasized. The practical application of the results can be used in teaching a foreign language in a non-linguistic university.
