METHODOLOGICAL FOUNDATIONS OF INCREASING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF FOREIGN LANGUAGE TEACHING FOR B1 LEVEL STUDENTS THROUGH AUDIOVISUAL TECHNOLOGIES

Abstract

The development of effective foreign language teaching methods is an essential concern for modern educational systems in a globalized world. As international communication becomes more frequent, the ability to speak and understand foreign languages goes beyond academic achievement and serves as a vital skill for personal, academic, and professional growth. For B1 level learners, who are at an intermediate stage of language proficiency, improving language skills such as listening, speaking, reading, and writing is particularly crucial. In recent years, the introduction of audiovisual technologies has opened new possibilities for improving the efficiency of foreign language instruction. By integrating videos, films, audio recordings, interactive exercises, animations, and other media into the language learning process, educators have been able to create immersive, engaging, and effective learning environments. The methodological foundations of using audiovisual technologies in teaching are essential for ensuring that these tools are not simply additional resources, but instead, that they are well-integrated elements that contribute meaningfully to the learning outcomes of B1 level students.
