THE ROLE OF VIDEO RESOURCES IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF COMMUNICATIVE COMPETENCE IN MODERN ENGLISH LANGUAGE LESSONS

Abstract. This article explores the effectiveness of using online video resources in English language teaching. Video materials help activate students' speaking and thinking skills, develop listening and pronunciation abilities, and reinforce previously learned material. Videos selected according to the lesson’s objectives and students’ language proficiency contribute to positive learning outcomes. However, independent language learning through video resources alone is not feasible; teacher guidance and supplementary materials are essential. The purposeful and systematic use of video materials is a key factor in organizing effective instruction.
