Формирование у школьников умений, составляющих читательскую грамотность, как способ защиты от манипулятивного воздействия

Abstract

The aim of the study is to substantiate the fact that the process of reading literacy formation is one of the ways to ensure the information security of a school student. The paper analyses manipulative techniques contained in non-educational texts and describes educational activities aimed at developing students’ skills of recognising manipulative techniques. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that the techniques of speech manipulative influence encountered by modern schoolchildren were identified and the skills comprising reading literacy were described, which allow identifying manipulation techniques and reducing their negative impact. As a result, it was proved that the development of such skills of a literate reader as the skills that help to verify information, the skills of identifying and analysing linguistic and graphic markers of manipulation, the skills that allow finding and analysing logical thinking errors in the text ensures reading literacy formation among schoolchildren, which is necessary for their protection from speech manipulative influence. The paper offers methodological recommendations that can be used in the process of forming school students’ reading skills that ensure their information security.
