Abstract. This article is about independent work of students, about the tasks facing teachers and students in 
performing this work. 
Keywords: independent work, leaner autonomy, language learning, educational activity, communicativeness, 
cognitive interest. 
 
Our century is the century of rapid development of information and innovation technology, which requires the 
development of modern society, increasing the need for professional self-improvement of the individual. Continuous 
improvement and development of scientific and technological progress and increased requirements for teaching and 
teachers, provides students with the opportunity to not only learn, but also teaches them the skills of self-development, 
independence. Teachers are faced with an urgent problem – improving the quality of education, searching for new ways 
to enhance educational activities, increasing the level of their independent work, which helps to increase the cognitive 
interest in the studied foreign language. Independent work requires students to search for new information, regional 
geographic material, and this leads to reflection. Analysis, conclusions. These types of work contribute to the formation 
of character, self-improvement, achievement of the goal. The most important thing is to teach students independence so 
that they themselves manage this work, while they quickly learn and learn the principles of independent work. The 
work of the teacher is dominant, guiding and managing. In the modern terms of surrounding reality it becomes obvious, 
that society need highly qualified specialists with an active professional and vital position, capable not only to adapt in 
the global world but also occupy leading position in it. Therefore the special tasks, related to forming future specialists 
having both professional and cultural competences and the desire to self-development and self-perfection stand before 
higher education. Undoubtedly, for the achievement of this objective it is impossible to be limited to the revision of the 
methodological approaches going near the process of teaching in institution of higher education and the usage of mod-
ern technologies. The solution of this problem requires first a change of the conceptual principles of teaching since the 
formation of the creative self-identity can hardly be done by traditional rendering of knowledge. In the new educational 
paradigm a student from a passive consumer of knowledge should become an active subject, able to solve problems 
independently, finding effective ways to achieve them. In this vision of the educational process at the University stu-
dents' independent work is not just a form of educational process, it is transformed into its integral basis. Therefore, 
consideration of the substance and content of independent work in the institutions of higher education, the formation of 
cognitive autonomy in the language teaching of students is an issue of the day and requires detailed analysis and re-
search. It should be noted that the study of the question is dedicated by the spirit of the new time: the processes of glob-
alization, the integration that is taking place today in the modern world, require universal, competent and self-confident 
professionals.
Independent work involves focusing on active methods of mastering knowledge. The development of creative 
abilities of students, and individualization of learning, taking into account the needs and capabilities of the individual. 
Independent work is carried out by students after receiving the assignment within the framework of the studied disci-
pline, taking into account the training of students – their level of knowledge. The success of students' independent work 
is possible only with the motivation available. And the students have only one motivation – this is the acquisition of 
knowledge, their use in training and preparation for further professional activity, in the future profession. Independent 
work in a foreign language at a technical university represents it includes not only translations of texts, memorization of 
songs and poems, coverage of grammatical topics, but also the constant search and presentation of regional geographic 
material – acquaintance with the country of the language being studied, with the history, culture of native speakers, its 
spiritual values, education. Acquaintance with native speakers on the network contributes to the improvement of collo-
quial speech, teaches communication, friendship, patriotism and internationalism. When translating texts into their na-
tive language, it is necessary to know the customs and traditions of the people from whose language the translation is 
being made. Ignorance of the subtleties of the language, idioms, idioms, language clichés of the original language, 
translation of texts will not be accurate, which will greatly complicate the concept of the meaning of the translation. 
Doing independent work cannot be imagined without using the Internet, Multimedia, because any information can be 
taken from them. The Internet helps not only to obtain information, but also strengthens the ability to use a computer. 
Performing independent work, the student needs to use grammar guides, dictionaries, and thanks to this, the student 
independently learns and replenishes the lexical and grammatical materials. As a rule, students who have successfully 
mastered the topics of independent work can take part in various conferences at the university in which they study, but
