The article deals with the issue of the effectiveness of using dictogloss as a way of enhancing communicative speech activity, critical thinking and creative potential of students of non-language higher educational institutions in ESP classes. The key stages of the traditional dictogloss are considered: 1) preparation; 2) dictation; 3) reproduction; 4) analysis and reflection, comparing texts created by subgroups with the original or with texts of other subgroups. The main principles (such as the principle of cooperation training and the use of interactive technologies, the principle of the curriculum and the educational process connection, the principle of diversification, the principle of the development of mental, mnemic and perceptual processes, the principle of emotionality, the principle of systematicity and consistency) aimed at ensuring the outcomes and effectiveness of innovation dictations and the ways of their implementation are outlined. The main modified versions of the dictogloss are analyzed and recommendations for their preparation in ESP classes are provided: dictogloss-negotiations, «student-control» dictogloss, student-student mode, «Summary» dictogloss, «Express your own opinion», «Reodering dictogloss», «Add details», «Picture» dictogloss. Dictogloss is determined to be an effective activity for teaching ESP, since it can be applied to different levels of foreign language proficiency and adapted for any specialism. The advantages of the dictogloss are emphasized: it can be used to represent a new topic, to revise and practice vocabulary or grammar material; it does not require more time for preparation than other types of activity; the teacher can change the forms of dictations, adding a competitive element or element of the gamification; it can become a source of motivation for learning a foreign language and a way of diversifying pedagogical techniques and technologies.

The article is devoted to a brief overview of the problems of teaching Russian as a foreign language at the present stage to students of higher educational institutions of the Islamic Republic of Iran from the point of view of the use of modern teaching aids in the absence of a language environment. This problem is relevant for modern linguistics, especially in Iran. In connection with the developing relations in the field of politics, economics and culture, between the two friendly states Iran and Russia in teaching the Russian language in higher educational institutions of Iran, there has been a partial departure from the language in favor of a communicative approach to teaching. Teaching Russian as a foreign language in Iran, in the absence of a linguistic environment and an acute shortage of textbooks, sharply raises the question of the need to constantly improve the learning process through the use of informational electronic learning tools in accordance with modern educational standards. Changes are taking place in the teaching approach, which requires constant professional development of teachers. Learning any foreign language in the absence of a natural language environment requires the creation of an artificial language environment. The modern educational process requires the use of traditional forms of education in conjunction with the introduction of innovative information and communication technologies, as a means of improving communication skills. The use of these technologies has a positive effect and allows us to achieve significant results in the process of teaching Russian in higher educational institutions in Iran.
