Online learning and distance technologies are becoming a daily routine in our lives. You should not take this phenomenon as temporary, as well as rely on the difficulties of presenting educational material online and imperfect technologies. It is necessary to strive for better learning using electronic resources, improving the methodology of their use, and sometimes adjusting to the existing realities of life, to make the learning process more effective. There are numerous disputes and discussions about the need to introduce online learning technologies into the educational process of the university. However, the welcoming examples of individual educational institutions should not give rise to the illusion of complete and widespread prosperity. Using online exercises and tests for learning a foreign language is a modern, popular and quite effective method of conducting classes, both in distance learning and in the classroom. Since there is no time spent on writing text in a notebook (although this should not be neglected and writing is an integral part of the language learning process), you can work out a fairly large amount of educational material for the same, effectively optimize the lesson and, accordingly, achieve better results.
