These days the mastery of the Internet or at last the proper know-how needed for this sort of work is regarded among the same basic skills of civilized person as an ability for reading or writing. The necessity of developing these skills among the people in the large scale has been realized in Estonia on the state level in the first years of newly regained independence. So it was back in the year of 1995 when there was developed the large-scale project named “Tiger’s jump” / when Estonia joined in the global project with the purpose to provide all municipal schools / all sort of schools and colleges with the means for using the Internet connections or so to speak “to open the way out into world-wide web or Internet”. According to US researchers most of the schools in US / EU countries are connected / have links with the quick-system Internet. In Estonia that quick-system Internet-connections are at the disposal for 90% of schools. Furthermore, that our joining the global project / that above-mentioned project was successful we have the corroborative fact of including Tallinn, the capital of Estonian Republic with the same league as London and Tokio, both the capitals of the most powerful countries and with the best equipment and connections to the Internet.
However such technical equipment in the possession of the schools by itself is not a guarantee for any effective using of Internet-provided means and resources in the educational process. Researches into the most popular educational methods described by authors of teacher’s books, for example in the field of Russian language teaching shows, that aforementioned resources are far from fully used.
These were the facts that triggered the creation of current research paper with the double kernel-points of considering theoretical aspects and offering practical methods for introduction of contemporary powerful and extensive technical means into the language-educational process. With that purpose in sight, using most direct and picturesque examples we are describing in our research paper several different ways of using Internet in the educational process, then the means for further improvement of teacher’s books and by last but not least we are considering the best ways for introducing these new methods into the real practice of language-teaching.
The results of our research may be used for further developing and increasing the effects of an educational process in a whole and the system of foreign language studying in particular.
