    (Полтавський державний медичний університет, 2024) Lysanets, Yu.; Morska, L.; Bieliaieva, O.; Лисанець, Юлія Валеріївна; Морська, Лілія; Бєляєва, Олена Миколаївна
    This article explores the integration of data-driven learning tools, as exemplified by Versa Text, into the process of teaching English for Specific Purposes in medical education. The study investigates the efficacy of Versa Text’s functions (Word Cloud, Concordance, and Profiler) in enhancing language acquisition and proficiency development among medical students. Through a series of classroom based activities and exercises, students engage with authentic medical texts, analyse linguistic patterns, and develop a deeper understanding of specialized medical terminology. This study discusses the benefits of integrating open-access materials sourced from PubMed and other databases with Versa Text's features, further enriching the learning experience by exposing students to real-world medical discourse. By incorporating such authentic materials, educators can enhance students' awareness of current research literature and reinforce their understanding of medical terminology within a contextually relevant framework. The pedagogical implications of using Versa Text in ESP teaching are discussed, highlighting its potential for fostering active engagement, collaborative learning, and critical thinking skills. Furthermore, the article emphasizes the need for ongoing research to further refine and expand the use of data-driven learning tools in ESP teaching methodologies. This study contributes to the growing body of literature on technology-enhanced language learning and provides valuable insights for educators seeking to optimize ESP instruction in various professional contexts.
