Abstract

This article explores the evolution and diversification of foreign language teaching methodologies, with a particular focus on the integration of information and communication technologies (ICT). It contrasts traditional grammar-translation approaches with contemporary communicative and task-based methods, emphasizing the learner-centered nature of modern pedagogy. Innovative strategies such as CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning), gamification, blended learning, and the flipped classroom model are examined for their effectiveness in enhancing student engagement and language proficiency. The article also highlights the growing role of artificial intelligence (AI) in providing personalized language learning experiences. Through an analysis of platforms like Duolingo, Moodle, and Quizlet, and tools such as Grammarly and ChatGPT, the study underscores the transformative potential of digital technologies in modern linguodidactics. Ultimately, the paper argues for a flexible, technology-enhanced approach to language instruction that meets the diverse needs of today’s learners.
