Introduction. Technology has become an expected literacy in higher education and in our society, a universal language spoken worldwide, regardless of the profession (Marcinek, 2014). Trying to keep up with the requirements of current society and to take advantage of the advances in technology, teachers all over the world implement information communication technologies (ICT) in the classroom in order to deliver content effectively and address students’ needs. Computer based instruction already occupies an increasing role in teaching foreign languages. We are not a big fan of technology nor are we very skilled in using it, but we have to admit that technology greatly enhances teaching and learning foreign languages. However, we should not forget that teaching and learning are social processes and require communication between teacher and learners; therefore technology facilitates but does not replace these social processes (Bates & Poole 2003).
Since ICT is obviously an enormous topic I will narrow the focus of this article to two main points. First the paper begins by defining ICT and what it encompasses and certain features of ICT as well as benefits and challenges of using it in the classroom. Then it discusses the use of videos to engage students and the teacher’s role in integrating technology. The current stage of development of the society puts in front of the Russian education system a number of fundamentally new problems which are caused by the political, socio-economic, philosophical and other factors. Among them we should highlight the need to improve the quality and accessibility of education, increase academic mobility, integration into the world of scientific and educational space, creating educational systems optimal in economic terms, improving the university corporatism and strengthen the links between the different levels of education.
One of the effective ways to solve these problems is the informatization of education. Improving of means of communication has led to significant progress in the exchange of information. The emergence of new information technologies associated with the development of computer equipment and telecommunications networks has made it possible to create a qualitatively new information and educational environment as the basis for development and improvement of the education system.
