Abstract

The article aims to study the possibilities, identify features, and assess the prospects for using the LMS MOODLE system (learning management system "Modular Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment") for the formation of language skills in multilingual education. The study involved two groups of respondents, comparable in gender and age: 112 linguistic students (group A) and 109 non-linguistic students studying several foreign languages (group B). The respondents' answers to the questions of a specially developed questionnaire were analyzed, which made it possible to compare the parameters of training using the LMS MOODLE platform and traditional classroom training. To determine the connotative (individual-value) attitude towards obtaining multilingual education using the LMS MOODLE platform and to identify its subjective-personal meaning, Ch. Osgood's semantic differential method was used on the basis of a seven-point bipolar scale. Linguistic and non-linguistic students assessed differently LMS MOODLE platform for multilingual education, which is associated with different motives for acquiring multilingual competence and its professional significance.
