Abstract. This article discusses the role of informatization in the general era of information and communication technologies (ICT) in teaching, including a foreign language, which is becoming increasingly important. The traditional textbook, which has been the main teaching tool for many decades, is giving way to electronic and other information and educational resources. There are many factors that determine the orientation of the modern education system towards building an educational process based on ICT. One of them is the rapidly growing number of Internet users both in the world as a whole and in Uzbekistan. According to the research company Comscore, Uzbekistan occupies one of the leading places in Central Asia in terms of the number of Internet users.
