Abstract

Currently, the practical level of foreign language proficiency of philology graduates does not always correspond to the social order of society. In this paper, a model for professional foreign language training of philology stu-dents was developed, theoretically justified and experimentally tested. For this purpose, the Moodle tool was widely deployed and we identified and ex-perimentally tested pedagogical conditions that ensure the effectiveness of professional foreign language training for philology students. The experi-mental work involved a random sample of 305 students of the "bachelor" level of the training direction 5B021000 (6B023)–foreign philology. The re-sult of the qualitative and quantitative analysis allows to conclude the effec-tiveness of the proposed model of professional foreign language training of philology students based on Moodle, which is confirmed by the calculations during the statistical processing of the research results. The scientific novel-ty of the study is that the pedagogical conditions that ensure the effective-ness of the Moodle-based professional foreign language training of philology students were identified and experimentally tested. The results of the study showed the effectiveness of using distance learning in the current health context due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Highlights

In the context of the emergence of the global socio-economic crisis caused by the pandemic of COVID-19, the formation and sustainable development of the digitalization of the country's economy and, in particular, education has become relevant
To address the above problem, we propose to introduce a model of professional foreign language training of philology students in the university's computer and educational environment based on Moodle into the educational process
The current scientific and practical problem of effective professional foreign language training of future specialists in the field of philology in the computer and educational environment of the university based on Moodle in the context of digitization of the educational process on the national level is solved

Summary

Introduction

In the context of the emergence of the global socio-economic crisis caused by the pandemic of COVID-19, the formation and sustainable development of the digitalization of the country's economy and, in particular, education has become relevant. Two main problems can be noted: the state of communication networks that do not meet the current needs of online distance education, as well as the mismatch between the digital skills of teachers and modern technical capabilities [1, 2] The first of these issues concerns the choice of an optimal educational platform, a unified system of access to knowledge bases, as well as technical issues related to the creation of high-speed communication systems of the 5G standard, which allow the transmission of large amounts of data and are currently already implemented in a number of countries in Europe and Asia, which will allow distance learning in universities, helping to slow the spread of the pandemic in the world. In an attempt to maintain the level of the educational process before the crisis, universities are introducing an information and education environment, using open distance learning systems.
