Digital technologies in the methodology of foreign language teaching to ensure education quality

Modern educational challenges require the implementation of innovative approaches to ensure the quality of the learning process, particularly in foreign language teaching. The article is dedicated to exploring the role of digital technologies in the methodology of foreign language teaching, which contribute to creating a modern, interactive, and inclusive educational environment. The main goal of the research is to identify opportunities for integrating innovative digital technologies, such as online platforms, artificial intelligence (AI), virtual and augmented reality (VR, AR), to improve the quality of language education. Special attention in the article is payed to the advantages and challenges of using artificial intelligence, which, according to the research of V. Keyros, M. Simonete, and E. Spina, allows to personalize learning, automate routine tasks, and enhance teacher training. Immersive technologies, such as VR and AR, according to the studies of L. Freyn, M. Ott, J. N. Bailenson, and K. Dede, facilitate the practical application of language knowledge in realistic environment. The article uses a comprehensive set of research methods. The theoretical methods include: analysis and synthesis to systematize scientific and methodological positions regarding the implementation of digital technologies in language education; generalization and specification of theoretical positions from contemporary research in pedagogy and digital education. Methods of comparative pedagogy include: a problem-comparative approach for analyzing the use of innovative technologies in practical language teaching. Empirical methods include studying information sources, analyzing educational platforms to assess the relevance and effectiveness of digital technologies. The results of the research demonstrate that digital technologies open new opportunities to enhance the quality of education. The integration of digital technologies into foreign language teaching is a promising pathway for transforming education, which not only improves the learning process but also helps prepare students for the challenges of a globalized world. This evolution in teaching methodology is an important contribution to ensuring the quality of modern education.
