Abstract

Introduction. One of the features of the current stage of development is the widespread use of digital technologies, which are being actively introduced into all spheres of public life. Education is of particular importance, since in this sphere the development of digital technologies has led to the emergence of new teaching methods, including distance learning. The need to conduct classes in a distance format, due to various factors, has prompted teachers around the world to study the possibilities and features of this approach to teaching more closely. Purpose setting. Since distance learning courses do not always generate interest and response from students, teachers and online course developers set a goal to identify what motivates students most to study on a distance learning server, what arouses their greatest interest and desire to learn.

Methodology and methods of the study. The following methods were used in this study: observation, quantitative calculation, comparative analysis, generalisation, synthesis and experiment.

Results. The authors of this article encountered problems dealing with students in a distance learning format, teaching foreign languages to students of different levels at Reshetnev Siberian State University of Science and Technology. To better understand current trends in this area, they studied international and domestic experience with the aim of adapting it to their own needs and the needs of their students. In order to better understand the needs and characteristics of the participants in the educational process, the authors conducted a survey among the students of technical specialities. The results obtained were analysed and summarised. They will be used to create motivating tasks and foreign language courses on the distance learning server.

Conclusion. The study allowed formulating a number of conclusions about the benefits of practical application of distance learning and finding effective methods and approaches for engaging students in the learning process.
