WAYS TO INCREASE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF TEACHING GERMAN THROUGH BLENDED LEARNING TECHNOLOGY

Abstract

This thesis examines ways to increase the effectiveness of teaching German through blended learning technology. In modern language education, the combination of classroom instruction with digital learning environments creates favorable conditions for improving learners’ communicative competence, motivation, and autonomy. The study analyzes the pedagogical essence of blended learning and identifies the main methodological factors that determine its effectiveness in German language teaching. Special attention is given to the balanced integration of face-to-face and online instruction, the use of authentic digital resources, the organization of interactive tasks, and the role of continuous feedback. The findings show that the effectiveness of teaching German through blended learning depends on purposeful instructional design, learner-centered differentiation, and the systematic combination of traditional and digital methods. The thesis concludes that blended learning technology serves as an effective methodological model for modern German language teaching when it is organized on the basis of clear didactic principles and communicative goals.
