Proper use of modern methods to ensure the quality and effectiveness of foreign language teaching demonstrates its effectiveness. One of the difficulties of learning foreign languages is learning the correct pronunciation. There are many advantages to using technical equipment. One of them, and, more importantly, is the increase in students' interest in science, that is, in their foreign language. At present the foreign languages taught in many institutions of higher education have various computer-based programs and technologies developed by the language industry and now they are available to teachers and students. According to E.N. Voronova, "the system of the teacher's work to ensure the learning outcomes of a foreign language must necessarily include the implementation of the following technologies: the technology of communicative learning, the technology of understanding the communicative meaning of the text, gaming technology, learning technologies in cooperation, project technologies, etc." [1, p. 189]. One of the modern tools for teaching English to students can be the use of podcasting in the learning process. Podcasts began to be used in 2004 for the transmission of audio or video broadcasts on the Internet. The word "podcast" comes from English iPod and broadcast and means an audio or video file that "is distributed free of charge via the Internet for mass listening or viewing" [3, p. 109]. Educational podcasts devoted to the study of foreign languages, allow to solve a number of methodological tasks, including the formation of auditory skills and understanding of speaking foreign languages, the formation and improvement of listening skills, the expansion and enrichment of lexical vocabulary, the formation and improvement of grammatical skills, development skills of speaking and writing.
The fast growing of foreign language field represents a major challenge to teachers and students and in particular to educators in charge of curricula planning. A good deal of looking ahead is appropriate: an important number of new tools, some of which are quite time-consuming to embark on, need to be integrated into curricula. Existing academic programs are already filled to the brim with Language for Specific Purposes (LSP) requirements and other contents which cannot be reduced, given that it is out of the question to teach students less language. LSP and culture assuming that the machines could take over some of the tasks carried out until now by humans. In the recent years in the field of teaching foreign languages we can see the research work closely connected and designed with the using of computer technologies. The recent research projects have dealt with the computer-assisted style analysis, contrastive basic research in different language learning and translating, comparative research in cross-cultures communication, business languages and terminological vocabulary. These special courses mean for language training of students majoring in other fields of the humanities; use of modern educational technologies for teaching foreign languages. The curriculum consists of a set of current and new courses that are designed to provide both theoretical foundation and practical experience needed for
students to further education. We want our students to integrate computer's language technology in their everyday work so our teaching staff includes various training methods aimed at improving the professional level of specialists whose activity is connected with foreign language usage. It is necessary to create a flexible system of teaching a foreign language which will include an obligatory basic minimum in reading, conversational practice, listening comprehension, writing and vocabulary. Most exciting learning activities using the new tools involve the interactive language systems and develop learning and language training applications for students. The main important components of language teaching are the using electronic technologies: DVD adds an extra dimension to the course, containing a range of authentic material from film and TV. The DVDs expose learners to a variety of different English media and give them an opportunity to feel how the language is used in real life. It is very accessible to students and stimulates their interest.
CD-ROM which provides extra support material especially for students who can miss lessons, it contains the grammar presentations, self-check practice exercises, communicative games. The Test Master CD-ROM provides an invaluable testing resource to accompany the course and define the measure of students' progress. CDs provide additional listening practice linked to the topic areas containing all recorded and grammar materials from the Students' Book. The CD is a comprehensive and easy-to-use set of tool developing the speech recognition and understanding.
New products are being marketed all the time and it is a challenge just to keep informed. The skills needed to test and use the software and the competence of assessments of these products have become valuable elements in the education of students.
Language teaching in general and English language teaching in particular has tremendously changed over the centuries. Language learning and teaching are dynamic, fluid, mutable processes, so there is nothing fixed about them unlike the teaching of other subjects. Language teaching especially throughout the twentieth century underwent numerous changes and innovations. Approximately, every decade a new approach or methodology comes into practice. Many major theories, events, trends and technologies which shaped English language teaching during the past decades suggest methodologies are as much a product of their times as educational systems, and rooted in the ideas of their time. Ideas may come into and go out of fashion. Many new approaches are rediscoveries of old methods neglected but re-illuminated.
