Abstract

The priority of education development is the introduction of modern information and communication technologies (ICT), in particular - technologies of mobile learning, providing improvement of educational process, accessibility and effectiveness of education for personal development according to individual inclinations, abilities, based on lifelong learning. Due to rapid expansion, proliferation and increasing of functionality of mobile technologies we should use their potential to improve and facilitate learning, ensuring accessibility, equity, individualization and flexibility. The analysis of the basic features and benefits of mobile technologies for lifelong learning is conducted. The model of mobile learning technologies in English phonetics learning is proposed in the article. At the proposed mobile learning model we developed the mobile application “English Sounds”. It allows organizing the learning process of English phonetics. The methodical implementation of the proposed model for learning of English phonetics is described. The proposed mobile learning technologies help to achieve the main aim of foreign languages learning – forming the general and professional communicative competence of specialists in globalized society.
