Abstract

The introduction of informational technologies in the modern educational process is an essential part of the successful work of the teacher and the guaranty of the achievement of learning outcomes. The text corpus is one of the modern resource tools for the creation of language learning assignments for students. In addition, we present teaching materials for studying the homonymy and polysemy of the words. We offer two different forms of organization of the learning process with emphasis on corpus technology: teacher presenting select assignments to students and students independently working with texts from a text corpus, as a mini-research project.
