Summary / Abstract:

ENThe article reviews innovative educational technologies. A theoretical review of innovative teaching/learning methods is then juxtaposed with Polish and Lithuanian higher education reality. The aim of the survey was to find out what modern technologies are used in foreign language teaching and what modern technologies the respondents would like to have used in the foreign language classroom, and why. 100 Polish and 100 Lithuanian university students were asked to fill in a questionnaire. As digital natives, the respondents were expected to be familiar with modern technologies and willing to use them in foreign language learning. The study shows that the most popular innovative technologies among both Polish and Lithuanian students are audio files; Internet resources are also frequently used. In the Lithuanian group, projectors as well as language laboratories are popular, while in the Polish group, online dictionaries and interactive boards are commonly used. The respondents also suggested a list of technologies to implement. The results show how useful modern technologies are in foreign language teaching/learning, which requires further discussion on how to use them effectively.
