EFFICIENCY OF MICRO-LEARNING IN MESSENGERS FOR FOREIGN LANGUAGE TEACHING

Abstract

As a research task, the authors attempted to assess the effectiveness of the microlearning method on messenger platforms in the context of teaching foreign languages. Considerable attention is paid to a possibility of adapting methods of teaching a foreign language to the modern realities of the digital era, as well as to the style of perception of information by generation Z, which is characterized by a rapid change in focus. The advantages of using messenger platforms in teaching a foreign language are highlighted and described: operational feedback, flexibility and accessibility, multimedia, as well as the ability to quickly and efficiently memorize information presented in the form of microcontent. The results of the study demonstrate the potential of micro-learning on messenger platforms as a tool to increase the efficiency and motivation of teaching foreign languages.
