Informational computer technologies as a mean of development of cognitive activity of students according to the conditions of new context of education

The computer has brought a revolution in education. Unlike most machines that are capable of only a few tasks, computer can be programmed to perform a great number of tasks and thus becomes a useful tool in the hand of teachers and learners helping them at any stage of learning process: presentation, learning, and practice including language use. Students and teachers do not represent two opposing sides, they work together, side by side, moving towards achieving the common goal of getting knowledge. You can also use computer graphics capabilities. This is particularly important when for entering new vocabulary, as well as the image on the monitor allows you to associate words in a foreign language directly from the action, rather than with words in their native language.
