The teaching method – debating is a way how to encourage students to participate actively in their own learning process. The teaching method-debating is offered in the curricula of the foreign language subject in lower secondary and general secondary education in Latvia besides the other teaching methods, e.g. discussion, questions, role play, conversation, narration, etc. Through applying this teaching method the teacher is no longer the only source of information. This article is focusing on the promotion of the thinking process through debating, as well as the opportunities of bringing the teaching methoddebating to the lesson. It is important to encourage students to think. Unfortunately, often the focus of the lesson is put on the tasks that rather contribute to discipline than thinking.

The article presents the impact of emotions on teaching children foreign languages. To this end, the results of a research project carried out under the auspices of the Institute of German Philology at the University of Silesia in Katowice are discussed. The project consisted in providing language courses at three kindergartens and one primary school. During those courses, German was taught as a foreign language using the storytelling approach. The project results led to the conclusion that, unlike traditional teaching methods, which are based on very limited input and intensive imitation, the teaching method used creates much more favourable conditions for the activation of innate language acquiring processes and takes the level of the children’s cognitive development into account to a larger degree. The objectives of the evaluation were – among other things – to determine how the storytelling approach affects children’s attitudes to a foreign language, whether it arouses their internal motivation for acquiring a foreign language, whether it contributes to building their confidence, and whether it stimulates their imagination and creativity.

Taking the Sino-German cooperative education project in mechanical and automotive engineering major of Qilu University of Technology (SDAS) for example, this paper mainly introduces the changes of teaching mode of German courses based on the corpus. The transformation of the teaching mode consists of both teaching methods and teaching contents. The teaching method has changed from teacher-teaching method to a hybrid method of "student self-exploration + group discussion + teacher guidance", and the teaching content has changed from "German" learning to "German +" learning. Changes above are shown and supported by project curriculum examples, which in turn demonstrate the role of corpus in foreign language teaching.

Reading is an activation of the prior knowledge that we already have in our mind. When we read any text, we use our knowledge of the world to understand the text. A typical reading class involves the reading of a passage followed by comprehension questions, vocabulary exercises, and grammatical exercises. In this article, we will discuss common techniques in teaching reading in relation to the reading class activities: pre-reading activities, during/whilst reading activities, and post-reading activities that teachers use in teaching reading comprehension lessons.

It is crucial for teachers of Russian as a foreign language to investigate the way of development of the ideas about the teaching method in didactics and linguodidactics. Thereby, they can better understand the process of evolution of the scientific thought, its current state and define its prospects. It helps to build a modern theory of teaching that has a practical value. The purpose of this research is to describe the development of the ideas about the teaching method in didactics and linguodidactics, to identify its stages and to analyze the future prospects for the development of the theory of teaching, including the methods of teaching Russian as a foreign language. The research was based on about 80 theoretical works devoted to didactics and linguodidactics and practical guides for teachers, including manuals for teachers of Russian as a foreign language. The author used the methods of conceptual and contextual analysis, and the historical and descriptive research method. Analyzing the sources, the researcher identified three stages of the development of the ideas about the teaching method in didactics and linguodidactics. When the ideas about the teaching method originated (17th-19th centuries), this concept was not defined. However, the term teaching method was actively used, as it referred both to the teaching process and to the teachers actions in the classroom. At the stage of formation of scientific ideas about the teaching method (20th century), researchers compiled and analyzed empirical data. Different definitions and classifications of the teaching methods were proposed and various theories of teaching methods were developed. At the stage of critical rethinking (21th century), a new theory of teaching was introduced. It included the description of the main features of teaching methods, their functional classification, and recommendations on how to choose and develop a teaching method. The term teaching method is polysemantic, which causes a number of problems. If researchers manage to clearly define this term, a great contribution will be made not only to didactics and linguodidactics, but also to the theory of teaching Russian as a foreign language.
