INTRODUCTION
Today, our country is going through new way of social modernization, industrialization and accelerated innovation challenges in the new global economic integration. The main objective of independent Uzbekistan, is to move forward to join the top 30 developed countries of the world. In this regard, there is a great responsibility on teachers and young people of Uzbekistan, to develop national competitiveness until the end of the century, providing prosperity and universal recognition of the country all over the world.
The use of technology has become an important part of the learning process in and out of the class. Every language class usually uses some form of technology. Technology has been used to both help and improve language learning and teaching. Technology enables teachers to adapt classroom activities, thus enhancing the language learning process. Technology continues to grow in importance as a tool to help teachers facilitate language learning for their learners.
METHODOLOGY AND DISCUSSION
Technology is the skills, methods, and processes used to achieve goals.
The simplest form of technology is the development and use of basic tools.

The word "technology" comes from two Greek words:
•xsxyn, techne, meaning "art, skill, or cunning of hand"
•-Xoyia, -logia, a suffix meaning "the study of'[1]
The role of innovation in education is great. The effective use of Innovative technologies, such as computers, the Internet, multimedia resources in the educational process is the only way to show the quality of education. One of the innovative technologies of improving the students' communicative abilities is using multimedia in the process of teaching and learning in the classroom. Proper use of multimedia in classroom will provide the opportunity for interacting with diverse texts that give students a solid background in the tasks and content of mainstream courses. Furthermore, because educational technology is expected to become an integral part of the curriculum, students must become proficient in accessing and using electronic resources. In terms of providing educational institutions with multimedia products, there are some problems to be solved so far:
• the virtual absence of domestic electronic textbooks (ET) in official language at educational institutions;
• lack of effectiveness of using the existing electronic textbooks;
• poor quality of teacher training in using electronic textbooks;
• insufficient implementation of new educational technologies in the educational process;
• low efficiency of automated assessment system in teaching. [2. Pg 78]
The using of multimedia in classroom cannot be denied anymore. That will make possible for teachers giving more opportunity to students being happier and more enjoy during the learning course. Through their interactions with multimedia texts, students become increasingly familiar with academic vocabulary and language structures. As they pursue sustained study of one content area through focus discipline research, the students become actively engaged in the process of meaning construction within and across different media. Learners obtain most of the information from electronic devices, which has made such tools, a very essential component of their daily life. Using innovative technologies in a classroom as a tool for language learning has many benefits. It gives stimulus to undertake the tasks. And could help in creating a long lasting impact on the learners. The role of teacher will change from an instructor's role to a coordinator. Self-paced independent learning methodology is what is being propagated with the help innovative technologies in English Language Teaching. Using multimedia provides the students to gather information through media that encourages their imaginations, interests. [2, pg 78]

One of the main problems faced by the language teacher, especially newcomers to the profession, is that methodology refuses to stand still. As McCarthy puts it: The methodology of foreign language teaching has evolved dramatically over the past half century, with emphasis at different times being placed on a remarkable array of philosophies and approaches under banners such as grammar-translation, audio-lingual, structure-global audiovisual, inductive/deductive, functional, notional, situational, communicative, immersion, learning/acquisition, suggestopedia, directivist/constructivist, etc. Although each approach has seen its share of zealous purists, it would seem that, viewed from a distance, the abiding lesson to teachers has been that no one approach is a magic wand capable of transforming any class of foreign language learners into near-native speakers of the target language, and that each approach brings to the fore a previously neglected or forgotten facet [3]. As language teachers, we have a tradition of integrating new media into our teaching. We have embraced any new technology, which was likely to improve learning. Mindful of the need to bring native speaker voices into the classroom, teachers in the first half of the 20th century took gramophones into their classrooms. These were replaced by reel-to-reel tape recorders when the price was right and appropriate recordings became available. Brave souls acquired microphones and encouraged students to record their own voices, to accustom them to hearing themselves speaking in another language. The next innovation was the language laboratory, coming as it did at a time when the audio-lingual method was to the fore and drills were considered central to successful language learning. Those entrusted with the maintenance of language laboratories heaved a sigh of relief when audiocassette recorders replaced reel-to-reel tape. Slide and filmstrip projectors, film projectors and television sets also found their way into language classrooms, followed by video players and video cameras. All of these innovations made their entrance as "bolt-ons". It was only when their characteristics were fully understood and their strengths identified in comparison with existing media that they become integrated into the delivery strategy of the teachers concerned, and into published courses [4].
After discussing main benefits of using innovative technologies in the
classroom, now we need to discuss the importance of effective implementation of
innovative technologies in teaching foreign language competences. First of all, in
language teaching, skills are often discussed in terms of four different modes - that
is, reading, listening, speaking and writing. With the development of technologies
and programming now we have various technologies, apps and online tools for
improving these four skills. It is not a secret that all these skills are closely related to
each other and one cannot be separated or taught separately, and in the basement of Google Scholar Scientific Library of Uzbekistan

all these skills is affected by one main skill like vocabulary skill. Every teacher knows that making students to learn vocabulary is one of the main difficulties in the process. Especially when not every student learns vocabulary same. Many of them just cannot learn all the new words, while many of them struggle in using all new words in their practice. Now we need to look at some useful online apps and tools which will help to improve student's vocabulary learning skills as well as the its effect on other competences.
RESULTS
One of the most famous website is QUIZLET. Quizlet is a free website based learning platform designed to help students learn information in a fun and engaging way using a computer, tablet or phone. Quzilet's flashcards, tests and study games make learning fun and engaging for students of all ages. Quizlet's main advantages are:
• Allows a person to memorize with different kind of techniques, so students can make good grades.
• Everyone can personalize their own.
• Quizlet gives many ways to learn terms in an effort to make even the most difficult words easier.
• Once a quizlet is made it will never be lost. [5]

CONCLUSION
Any kind of implementation and effective usage of technologies in the classroom especially in the language teaching classroom, improves student's language competences as well as increasing their attention to the lesson, which will make easier to teachers to enhance their student's level from one to another.
