THE USE OF THE "FLIPPED CLASSROOM" METHODOLOGY
IN THE PROCESS OF TEACHING A FOREIGN LANGUAGE
SUMMARY:
The educational process at the University of the 21st century involves the wide use of modern educational and computer technologies. Challenges and problems at the current stage of society's life cause an accelerated transition to using such technologies. The coronavirus epidemic and russia's invasion of Ukraine force university teachers to use distance and mixed forms of education more often. The flipped class is one of the subtypes of mixed learning, which involves using the principles of information and computer technologies and mixed learning in the educational process. Many scientists, primarily foreign, to a lesser extent Ukrainian, were engaged in studying the inverted classroom. This is because this method of organizing the educational process is new in Ukraine. Researchers of the inverted class include N. Bilousov and T. Gordienko, N. Prykhodkina, A. Aljarah, M. Thomas, S. Ahmad, G. Johnson, G. Ceccinato, J. Lee, A. Woles, and others. The flipped classroom is a relatively new teaching method gaining popularity in many countries worldwide. The main principle of the flipped classroom is independent learning and mastery of the material by students at home, watching video lectures and reading educational materials; in the classroom, during face-to-face training with the teacher, pupils and students perform practical exercises, laboratory classes, search together with the teacher for answers to unclear questions. The purpose of our study was to experimentally check students' perceptions of the flipped classroom method in foreign language studies in a professional field. The main task of our research was to obtain and study students' feedback on using the flipped class method when studying the subject "Foreign language for professional direction". The survey results demonstrated students' interest and increased motivation to learn when using the flipped classroom method. This method is effective in studying foreign language students at higher education institutions. It is essential to summarize that the flipped classroom method should be used with other teaching methods (cooperative learning, project and case method, CLIL) to increase its effectiveness.
