The Introduction of Innovative Educational Technologies and the Development of Online Learning at School

Modern conditions of an information society, the development of telecommunications require different approaches, methods, technologies in education. An essential aspect of these changes is the emphasis on the development of cooperation, the most important component of the educational process "teacher-student" on the basis of non-standard forms and methods of cooperation in the framework of a unified educational space. The success of training and education of a pupil depends on the tandem of cooperation, what forms and methods will be used, what modern technology they will be based on. Obviously, there is a need to create an educational environment for students which would enable them, remaining in their catchment area, to receive education of a desired profile and level. The development of online learning is a possible answer to a posed question. Means of new information technologies provide students a variety of learning tools. One of them is a digital educational resource of a new generation which I used working in the 11^th grade. It is an additional textbook to the main programme. What is "MyGrammarLab"? It is a three-level grammar series that teaches and practices grammar through a unique blend of book, online, mobile resources. It takes learners from elementary to advanced grammar, each level benchmarked against the Common European Framework. The aim of the use of this resource is to create an environment which allows students to get new opportunities in the construction of their new individual learning paths and to expand their educational opportunities. The objectives of this course are: -the introduction of online learning; -the individualization of the educational process; -the development of a creative and intellectual potential; -the popularization of heuristic learning based on the disclosure of individual abilities MyGrammarLab offers every learner to study grammar in the way that best suits their needs and provides as much practice as necessary to ensure that each grammar point is learnt and can be used in the context of real communication. A book gives clear and simple explanations. Natural examples illustrate the grammar points. There is a topic-based approach that presents grammar in context. It has a variety of exercise types - from drills to contextualized and personalized practice. A review section at the end of each module revises the key grammar points. An exist test at the end of each module checks that the grammar has been fully understood. Online a grammar teacher explains key grammar points through video presentations. There is more practice for every unit, an option to listen and to check the answers for practice exercises, automatic marking and feedback. We created a group on the Internet and started working. The tutorial consists of several modules which a teacher can open as he wishes. In each module there are tests and exercises that I gave to the students. I could select all the students or those who didn't complete their tasks. I could set the timing of the assignment, the number of attempts, allow to show hints, check punctuation automatically. When I assigned the test I set the timer. Students did their task at home. It was checked automatically. The report of the task was sent to the teacher. If necessary, the student could be sent a message, be assigned the test once more. Using this resource you can mart a diagnosis of students' works. This textbook is functional and gives you an additional opportunity to work on grammar, increases your intellectual capacity.
