- Abstract
-
The article addresses the problem of developing foreign language lexical competence among students of non-linguistic specialties. It is established that foreign language lexical competence constitutes the foundation of foreign language communicative competence, which, in turn, is an essential component of professional training for future specialists. The relevance of using mobile technologies in the process of foreign language instruction is substantiated with the aim of improving the quality level of lexical competence.
It is determined that mobile learning, as an innovative direction of e-learning, offers significant advantages over traditional teaching methods due to the intensification of independent learning activities, individualization of instruction, and increased cognitive engagement and learning motivation. The use of mobile devices facilitates the integration of work, study, and leisure, enabling learning in real contexts anytime and anywhere.
The theoretical and methodological conditions for the formation of students’ foreign language lexical competence through mobile applications are examined. An analysis of mobile applications for foreign language learning is carried out. It is found that there is no unified approach to the development and implementation of specialized mobile applications for foreign language learning oriented toward the specific needs of students’ future professional activities. The positive impact of specialized mobile applications on students’ level of foreign language professional vocabulary acquisition is confirmed.
