THE USE OF MNEMONIC TECHNIQUES IN CONJUNCTION WITH INTERACTIVE DIGITAL SERVICES IN THE PROCESS OF PROFESSIONAL TRAINING

Abstract

Vocabulary is one of the important elements in learning English. Based on a preliminary study, first-year students of the International College of Arts and Communications (IGUMO MKIK) mastering the foreign language program in the second semester faced problems with vocabulary assimilation. These difficulties are directly related to two indicators: firstly, their vocabulary was low. Secondly, the students had no motivation in the educational process. To overcome this problem, in our study we decided to test the effectiveness of using one of the most effective mnemonic techniques, namely the use of flash cards, together with the use of digital technologies. The purpose of this study is to consider the effectiveness of teaching English vocabulary and motivation of first-year students of IGUMO MKIK using the above-mentioned pedagogical techniques. When collecting data, we used qualitative and quantitative methods. Methods for obtaining high-quality data: survey, input testing, creation of the main and experimental groups, observation, final testing and analysis of the data obtained. We plan to analyze quantitative data by searching and comparing the average scores of the entrance and final tests. In the study, we tried to prove that students can learn more words with less effort if they use our methodology.
