Abstract

One of the most important places in determining the strategic goal of teaching in the system of vocational education is the social order of state with regard to the younger generation. Discipline "Foreign language" is a mandatory part of the general humanitarian and socio-economic educational cycle included in the training program of middle-level specialists. One of the important tasks in the training of such specialists can be considered the development of foreign language communicative competence for successful implementation in professional activities. Control is the most important condition for effective management in the process of teaching a foreign language and an effective form of feedback for the students of secondary vocational education.

Modern computer technologies allow providing constant control of students’ activity in the process of foreign language teaching. We use LMS Moodle for the organization and control of foreign language teaching. Using LMS Moodle tests as a form of control in teaching a foreign language for students of secondary vocational education is designed to establish the degree of students' realization of the tasks assigned to them in the learning process, to identify the formed level of professional and foreign language communicative competence.

Reasonability of using LMS Moodle tests as a form of control in teaching a foreign language for students of secondary vocational education can be distinguished in the following ways; the teacher can check objectively the knowledge of a large number of students with minimal time; immediate calculation of test results; formation of a sufficiently large number of test options.
