Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to develop a technology and describe its algorithm for organizing the current and final control of foreign language training of students in the context of distance learning.

The objectives of the study are to analyze the experience of using test shells and distance education platforms in the organization of recurrent control of foreign language training of students and to develop a general technological approach to the organization of current and final control in a foreign language.

The research methodology is based on the principles of personality-oriented education and a competence-based approach to evaluating learning outcomes. When developing the technology, a recurrent approach to the organization of foreign language teaching for university students was used. Based on the modern scientific and pedagogical theories of recurrent education and the concept of lifelong learning, the main conceptual provisions of the technology of organizing an independent assessment of foreign language training of university students using remote control tools and the content of methodological materials for conducting current and final control in a foreign language of students of non-linguistic areas were determined. The experimental part of the technology was attended by students of 4 universities of non-linguistic areas with a total number of 3123 people. 8 teachers took part in the development and testing of the technology and content of the test materials.

The findings of the study allowed us to create a common approach to the organization of remote control in a foreign language. The obtained results showed the presence of difficulties for students and teachers in the organization of remote control and allowed us to eliminate the problems by developing and demonstrating clear algorithms and stages of the control process to students. The study also showed the presence and allowed us to specify the psychological and pedagogical difficulties and ways to solve them in the process of preparing students for remote control.

In conclusion, the stages of the developed technology of remote control in a foreign language, the data of the theoretical content analysis of psychological and pedagogical literature and the statistical results of the application of the created technology in the educational process are presented. The results of the study showed a positive trend in the attitude of students to remote control, an increase in educational motivation and a decrease in the level of anxiety and psychological discomfort of students when passing remote control in a foreign language.
