Inter-subject relations as one of the components of the competence approach in teaching a foreign language
The article deals with the need to use interdisciplinary connections in teaching a foreign language, which is one of the most important requirements of the modern educational process. The actualization of knowledge from various subjects and their integration contribute to the development of the most appropriate actions in foreign language classes. The paper emphasizes that the principle of intersubject contributes to the implementation of other principles in teaching: activity and consciousness; unity of training and education; systematicity and consistency; the principle of connection of training with future professional activity and others. According to the author, the orientation of the teaching staff to intersubject relations develops in the teaching staff the main line, the general trend, the strategy of the educational process. Intersubject connections in a coordinated collective work can become the principle of constructing a didactic system. In the didactic system, built on the principle of intersubject, all stages of the activity of the teacher and the student are reconstructed. The teaching activity of the teacher and the educational and cognitive activity of students have a common procedural structure: goal-motive-content-means-result-control. Under the influence of intersubject relations, the content of these links and the ways of their implementation become specific. These connections resolve the contradiction existing in the subject system of education between the students ' assimilation of knowledge scattered by subjects and the need for their synthesis, integrated application in practice and in work. The ability to comprehensively apply knowledge, synthesize it, and transfer ideas and methods from one branch of knowledge to another is the basis for a creative approach to the scientific and practical activities of a university graduate in modern conditions.
