Before corpus technology, linguistic descriptions relied on what native speakers knew about the language or how they perceived it, rather than on how the language was practically used. By analyzing language data in corpora, teachers can develop the methodology that focus on specific language skills, such as grammar, vocabulary, speaking, listening, reading, and writing. This helps students improve their language skills in a more targeted and effective way. This article studies improving the methodology for the development of students’ oral discourse competence through a corpus- based approach by developing educational materials, exercises and tasks. Keywords: Didactic tool, task-based learning, project- based learning, shadowing, Content and Language Integrated-Learning, Cooperative learning. Introduction: Modern pedagogy and linguistics require future personnel to develop tools that allow processing large amounts of data as quickly as possible. On the other hand, this requires minimizing the subjective influence of an individual researcher on the results obtained, making it possible to identify and analyze previously unnoticed linguistic phenomena. In linguistics, a corpus is a modern technology that can perfectly solve the indicated problem, since it opens up wide possibilities for practical and theoretical research and at the same time is a didactic tool that performs European International Journal of Pedagogics 73 https://eipublication.com/index.php/eijp European International Journal of Pedagogics purely didactic, cognitive, informational, formative and scientific work, K. Muradkasimova noted that there are verification functions [7]. Therefore, the use of corpus several approaches to the system of exercises, namely, technology in linguistics can be considered from two they are divided into psychological (receptive, perspectives - studying the use of a corpus to improve reproductive and productive exercises), aspects of language and studying the improvement of linguopsychological (language and speech exercises), oral speech using a corpus. The use of corpus didactic (informative, preparatory and speech). The technology can increase the objectivity and reliability American methodologist G. Bennett gave several of the results obtained by researchers in processing recommendations on the issue of creating corpus-based language data. The use of a corpus approach by exercises from corpus data [10]. By incorporating these students allows them to study any language units of didactic opportunities, teachers can effectively help various speech genres in different types of speech, as students develop discourse competence both oral and well as in different contexts in the corpus, without written by applying effective communication skills in a being hindered by the specificity of the language unit variety of contexts. And corpus technology offers under study [8]. Students can search for discrete effective methods for enhancing language skills by lexical/grammatical units based on concordances that providing authentic language data and tools for analysis. indicate their functioning in different styles and areas By leveraging corpora, learners can access real-world of use. examples of language use, improve their vocabulary and grammar, and gain insights into discourse patterns, On the other hand, didactic approaches and activities ultimately boosting their fluency and confidence in for developing discourse competence include a focus speaking. In this article, here we offer some methods on original texts, task-based learning, discourse and approaches that teachers could use to motivate analysis activities, and using digital resources. These students to improve their oral discourse competence: methods help students understand how language is used in context and develop the skills to create Task-based learning (TBL). It enables students to work coherent and coherent communication. According to on assignments while honing their speaking abilities.
