Formation of Meta-Subject Results in Teaching a Foreign Language

Abstract

The modern system of national education, developing in the competence paradigm, puts on the agenda the need to form students' communicative skills that belong to the category of critical competencies of a meta-subject nature. The article discusses the methodological features and pedagogical conditions for forming meta-subject skills of schoolchildren in foreign language lessons. An attempt is proposed to determine the characteristics of the meta-subject approach, including a complex of personality traits that allow the student to act in a given communication situation at the level determined by the age-related psychological characteristics and the possibilities of the social experience of a younger student. The authors used the following research methods: utilizing the study and generalization of pedagogical experience and the survey method, the communicative, regulatory - behavioral and motivational characteristics of a younger student, which must be taken into account when introducing pedagogical technologies focused on meta-subject results in foreign language lessons, are concretized,  The analysis of the real practice of an educational activity is aimed at establishing a set of features of the pedagogical support of the meta subject approach within the framework of the "Foreign language" discipline in primary school. Based on the analysis of scientific literature on research and practical experience, several strategies have been identified that ensure the effective implementation of meta-subject results in younger students in foreign language lessons.
