Computer programs in professional training of foreing language teachers in the USA

Abstract

In recent decades, most American higher education institutions that train foreign language teachers have become familiar with information and communication technologies. Analyzing the changes that have taken place in recent years in the theory and practice of foreign language learning, one can state that information technology, distance learning forms ceased to be just fashionable words and went to the category of real cases. The effectiveness and the final results of foreign language learning depend on the level of development of learning resources and the rational organization of their use.
