Abstract

Problem Statement: The relevance is the use of information technologies (IT) in teaching foreign language. It is caused by insufficient analysis of the problem on using IT in the educational process.Research Questions: Analysis of Approaches and Models on Interactive TeachingPurpose of the Study: Foreign language is an indispensable component of professional teaching for meeting the challenges associated with students` professional activities. The basic formation of necessary background knowledge is based on using didactic models and project technologies with the help of special technological tools.Research Methods: A survey was carried out among students of the Kazakh University with the major on “Information Systems” (Bachelors of IT).Findings: Findings of the analysis on teaching foreign language, determination of pedagogical techniques and principles, and the use of project technologies helped the authors develop an effective teaching methodology that ensures a high level of students` mastery using English in their professional communicative processes. The proposed methodology has been tested in the “Project Management” course.Conclusions: A reproductive model of teaching a foreign language is focused on the transfer of knowledge and training practical skills in the use of the language material in terms of direct communication. Moreover, there is a certain gap between the content of foreign language instruction and the requirements of employers to the level of the language proficiency among graduates.
