Interactive Online Teaching of Phonetic Skills: Introductory Phonetic Course

Abstract

This paper aims to develop a methodology for forming communication skills (specifically phonetic skills) through a virtual learning environment involving online learning platforms, online tools, and mobile applications, which determines the relevance and timeliness of the study. The authors present their experience of effective use of modern online resources and mobile applications to develop phonetic and communication skills in first-year students studying German as the first and second foreign language at the Department of German Philology at Odesa I.I. Mechnikov National University, Ukraine. According to the survey, modern digital tools and applications help students reveal interest and, more importantly, increase motivation in learning a foreign language. They enable students to keep in touch with their teachers, who provide them with feedback and support, creating the effect of social presence which is so vital in a distance learning environment. The significance of the research is to establish the background for the formation of students’ self-development and self-education skills, encourage the students to take responsibility for their learning process, and motivate their learning activities with the most effective tools and technologies that do not only complement traditional teaching methods, but also contribute to the learning process improvement and enhancement. Consequently, the research findings can apply to the development of communicative competence, which is the main goal in teaching any foreign language.

Design of Blended Teaching Model Based on Emotion Recognition and Language Learning

“…To read the shape features of the face, it is necessary to accurately determine the position of the face, and the final result of the extraction needs to match the actual face features as much as possible. The model that can actively recognize the shape adopted in this paper is one of the better ways to solve this problem (Azrva et al, 2021). The basis of the method model is to read the face that has marked the feature points.…”

Design of Cloud Classroom Hybrid Physical Education Teaching Mode Based on Internet Technology

“…The continuous progress of society has played an important role in education, and comprehensive talents are an important resource for current social development. According to the experiment, when using the traditional teaching mode, only 13% communicated a lot, 24% communicated more, and 40% communicated more frequently [7][8]. When using the blended teaching model, 26% communicated very much, 30% communicated more, and 29% communicated more frequently.…”
