Annotation: Responding to the challenges of a changing educational environment and meeting the needs of a new generation of university students, a foreign language teacher is in constant search of relevant didactic tools and technologies. The problem of the cognitive activity reducing of university students of non-linguistic majors in the study of foreign languages remains unresolved. Being a quality of an individual and an important incentive for learning, cognitive activity has a direct impact on the educational process and its result. This justifies the relevance of the research. Choosing the Telegram-channel as a technique for stimulating cognitive activity, the authors rely on studies of the socio-psychological characteristics of Generation Z students, their interests and life strategies. The authors pay special attention on the types of content and ways of presenting information in the Telegram-channel of the educational language group. The practical significance of the research lies in the reflection of the pedagogical experience of the Telegram-channel integration into the educational process, as well as the possibility of using the presented specific types of publications to stimulate the cognitive activity of students in the context of language disciplines.
