The article analyzes modern methods of teaching a foreign language for economic specialties, shows the feasibility of using these methods in higher education. The process of teaching English in non-linguistic higher education institutions has certain features that are related to the different initial level of language training of freshmen; the number of hours to study the subject; number of groups; low enthusiasm for learning a foreign language. We emphasize that motivation plays an important role in the educational process, and its formation should be one of the main tasks of the educational process of students of economic specialties. Motivation determines the productivity of educational activities and is an integral part of it. Practice has shown that high-quality training of foreign languages for economic specialties can be carried out through the introduction of modern educational technologies, such as: training, project methodology, technology of consolidation and distance learning, information and communication technologies, training and control work. It is determined that if the content of the subject «foreign language» is focused on the specialty of the free economic zone, the effectiveness of the curriculum can be significantly increased. The study found that the use of interactive learning technology involves seeking help in communication, including cognitive communication and constructivist methods of learning a foreign language. The evidence has shown that the use of innovative English teaching methods and multimedia teaching methods can increase students’ motivation to learn foreign languages, provide access to new alternative sources of information, develop independent psychological activities, develop communication skills, intercultural and professional skills. The formation of technical motivation of students of higher educational institutions of economic specialties is one of the main tasks of the educational process, and students should become active participants, not passive objects. The use of multimedia teaching aids to implement innovative methods of teaching English allows to increase students’ motivation to learn foreign languages, obtain new alternative sources of information, develop independent psychological activities, improve creative self-realization, cultivate communication skills, intercultural and professional skills. Therefore, these technologies help to qualitatively diversify courses, enrich them with information and diversify teaching, significantly increase the effectiveness of the professional content of “foreign” subjects in higher education in economic specialties. Methods of teaching foreign languages are constantly updated, so the demand for their study is growing. Since one of the most effective methods is communication, we see the prospect of further studies in its research.

"МЕЧТАЮ СЛИТЬСЯ С КАДРАМИ РАБОТНИКОВ СОЮЗА ПО МОЕЙ СПЕЦИАЛЬНОСТИ": ПРОБЛЕМА РЕПАТРИАЦИИ В СРЕДЕ ХУДОЖНИКОВ-ЭМИГРАНТОВ ВО ФРАНЦИИ (1920-1930-Е ГГ.)

In the first years after the revolution, the relations between the intelligentsia and the young Soviet government were more complicated than those of other social groups. Among the emigrant artists, there is a whole range of models of relations with the Bolsheviks: from military emigration, irreconcilable opponents of the “Sovdepia” through doubters who kept neutrality, to fierce supporters. The artists had a large “period of reflection” during which it is necessary to determine their attitude to the new government. However, it was possible to maintain the status of “ambivalent emigration” only for a short time. The intelligentsia did not have a special amnesty to return, but the Soviet government tried to return cultural and artistic figures. They were treated not with the tools of mass agitation, but with personal influence, sometimes with the help of relatives who remained in Russia. In relation to artists, arguments were used appealing to their creative self-realization, the demand and “necessity” of their art at home. Features of repatriation among Russian emigrant artists in France are considered by the author on the basis of archival documents.

КАЗАТЬСЯ И БЫТЬ: СМЫСЛОЖИЗНЕННЫЕ ОРИЕНТАЦИИ ЛИЧНОСТИ В МЕНЯЮЩЕМСЯ МИРЕ

The subject of the article is one of the fundamental issues facing any person in the process of his spiritual formation and self-realization. The choice in favor of being imposes on the individual a difficult duty to achieve real results in the chosen profession, which is impossible without long efforts and hard work. Choosing imitation as a life meaningful strategy opens an easy path to success. However, the results of imitation activity, having an external resemblance to the products of genuine creativity, ultimately turn out to be only foam on the surface of the historical stream of creation. There is no direct and immediate connection between the nature of the social environment in which a person is formed and acts, and the meaningful life choice of the latter. The social environment creates a certain range of opportunities that open up before a person in the course of his self-realization. It is shown that the system of relations developed in modern Russian society, orienting a person to personal success as the highest goal of life, favors the choice in favor of imitation. The education system is the most important element of the social environment. It is designed not only to involve students into the cultural achievements, but also to set a grid of ideological coordinates for the emerging personality. From this point of view, the strategy of reforming the domestic education system, which is based on the liberal mythology of "returning Russia to the bosom of world civilization", is critically analyzed. Since, as it is now obvious, the aforementioned return ended in complete failure, a radical change in the vector of the country's development is necessary. In the light of the new realities, the only strategy to preserve Russia's political and historical subjectivity is to pursue self-sufficiency. Current educational system should not aim students at increasing the chances of personal success in the life racing, but at socially positive creative self-realization, which ultimately leads to an increase in the civilizational potential of society.

MOTIVATION FOR PROFESSIONAL SELF-DEVELOPMENT OF TEACHERS OF HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS

The article is devoted to the theoretical justification of the motivation for professional self-development of teachers of higher education institutions and the generalization of the results of empirical research on the needs of self-development motivation. We define professional self-development as a conscious purposeful process of personal and professional self- improvement with the aim of creative self-realization while performing professional activities. However, we believe that teaching activity involves the dynamic involvement of both proficient and personal qualities and competences; therefore, the professional self-development of a teacher is aimed at self-cognition, self-affirmation, and self-improvement in all spheres of life. The process of professional self-development of teachers of higher education institutions requires a deeply realized value of its necessity, stable internal motivation, but it should be supplemented by external incentives in a creative educational environment, which was confirmed by empirical research. The conducted research has proved the need to make up practical recommendations for teachers regarding professional self-development, which can become the basis for further research.
