Обучение иноязычной коммуникативной грамматике студентов неязыковых направлений подготовки: проблемы и пути их решения

Abstract

The study aims to substantiate the need to improve the organization of the educational process for teaching foreign language communicative grammar to students in non-linguistic training programs. The paper presents the factors that determine the need for students of non-linguistic universities to learn grammar within the framework of a communicative approach. The problems hindering the successful implementation of this process are as follows: the lack of academic hours allocated for practical classes, contradictions between the communicative and the traditional approach, the low level of skills in the field of teaching communicative grammar among the teaching staff, reliance on a conscious approach to teaching foreign grammar, mismatch of the scientific and methodological support complex for teaching students to modern trends regarding the communicative orientation of foreign language training. The paper is the first to substantiate the significance and to describe the problems of teaching foreign language communicative grammar to students in non-linguistic training programs, which accounts for the scientific novelty of the study. As a result, the study has found that the problems of teaching communicative grammar to students in non-linguistic training programs are manifested at all levels of the educational process organization: at the level of approaches (communicative and traditional); at the level of the teacher’s activities to develop their professional skills; at the level of the university management determining the number of academic hours allocated for foreign language practical classes.
