today's world, one of the key areas of improvement in the methodology of teaching foreign languages is the integration of digital innovative technologies in the education process. The purpose of the current paper is the analysis of a pilot project that aims at creating a German mobile dictionary using digital and corpus technologies. In this pedagogical experiment, there were 30 participants, all 4th- and 5th-year students of the Kazan Federal University who are majoring in the field of "Pedagogics (with two areas of specialization)". As a result of the study, the project of creating a dictionary in the German language was completed. As the students were developing this multi-functional dictionary using the EduScrum method, they also investigated the capabilities of corpus technologies. Listed in this article are the detailed algorithm of sprints, the template of a dictionary entry, and the overview of tools used for the preparation of training tasks. The list of recommended German text corpora for organizing the work on a dictionary entry is also provided.
