Профессионально ориентированное обучение иностранному языку студентов-стоматологов на билингвальной основе с использованием теледискуссии

Abstract

Competency-based approach prevailing in higher schools requires the use of linguodidactic techniques that allow integrating the study of a foreign language into the process of professional knowledge and skills development. We consider the bilingual aspect of professionally oriented foreign language teaching of future physicians, which is the foothold of language education for non-linguistic training programmes. The aim of the study is to combine these two factors into one methodic strategy that takes into account the peculiarities of teaching students 31.05.03 “Dentistry” programme. We substantiate the passage of duplicate, additive and parity stages of artificial bilingualism of future specialists with the simultaneous development of knowledge in Russian and English and focusing on the components of language competencies necessary for students in this programme. We propose the use of television discussion in its two forms: asynchronous written in the form of a blog and synchronous oral in the form of tandem. Each of them is analyzed, broken down into organizational stages and adjusted to the conditions of teaching dentist students. The stages of training future physician using television discussion are described.
