Abstract:

Modern conditions of the implementation of educational processes necessarily dictate the search for the most effective teaching methods. As we know, a lot of attention is currently being paid to the digitalization of education. This article is devoted to the problem of discussing communication tasks artificially introduced by the teacher. The introduced tasks are designed to reflect more deeply the semantics of the studied words, their syntagmatics , the history of their origin and further functioning in the language. In this article, we hypothesize that the introduction of artificial communication tasks allows us to find out the difficulties in understanding the semantics of new words in a foreign (Russian) language. This is found out as a result of the analysis of students' responses to the set communicative tasks, which are initially focused on checking the degree of assimilation of new language material by students. The authors of the article make a number of observations that allowed us to identify hidden problems in the assimilation of new information. So, for example, a request to choose synonyms for a word, make sentences with synonyms reveals the degree of development of the studied material. Working with synonyms makes students activate their passive vocabulary and perform complex cognitive tasks that are not verbalized in any way. But the result of these complex tasks is what we see when analyzing the responses we receive. In the future, we will analyze the logic of making a response, the logic of its verbalization. Here we find a large number of communication strategies taken from the native language, as well as the logic of combining lexemes typical for the native language. Such tasks are also important in the cognitive aspect, because they force the student to activate their passive reserve. Moreover, this type of work takes the student to the metacommunicative level, which reveals the original models of sentence composition, word combinations, and given grammatical structures.
