The paper raises the problem of building the communicative competence of academics. Analysis of the theoretical material of the research helps further investigate the process of learning a foreign language by postgraduates within departmental educational milieu and define the foreign-language communicative competence of a research academician. In accordance with the logic of the presented research, the author uses a complex of complementary methods. They are theoretical research (systematic and theoretical analysis, studying the references in Pedagogy and Methodology of teaching a foreign language, comparative analysis of the Russian and foreign experience, considers the peculiarities of the content of research academicians training in a foreign language), pedagogical research (discussion, supervision, interview). The author stresses the necessity to improve the substantive component of foreign language training of the researcher, taking into account the professional orientation, the use of professional terminology by those who are engaged in research activities. That makes them capable of doing interpretation, précis-writing and abstracting scientific papers in English, thus building their foreign-language communicative competence. The author concludes that in the educational process it is advisable to use a manual, an interactive dictionary and a thesaurus for the successful organization of the process of building the foreign-language communicative competence of the research academician. The content of the materials mentioned above should be aimed at forming postgraduates’ readiness to participate in Russian and international research teams and use modern scientific terminology in a foreign language in various international scientific and representative conferences.

Individual Work

At the present stage, individual work of international relations applicants for higher education, approaches to which require radical changes, should become the basis of higher education, an important part of the training process of future experts. Moreover, individual work is considered to be a holistic integral formation that consists of various types of individual and collective activities for applicants for higher education, which are carried out by them in the classroom. In the frame of our research, the purpose of individual work of international relation applicants for higher education is twofold: independence development as a personality trait and English knowledge acquisition along with skills formation. We have verified that it contributes to the development of initiative, creativity, discipline, independence, accuracy, sense of responsibility, ability to solve problems on their own, ability to find constructive solutions, get out of crisis situations that are so necessary for the future specialists in their training and professional activities. In the frame of organizing the research, we optimally combined a set of methods, taking care that such a combination provides a comprehensive information about the development of foreign language communicative competence of future specialists. The methods that were used had to ensure the simultaneous study of activities, communication and awareness of the applicants for higher education. In the ongoing pedagogical research the theoretical research methods were applied. During the pedagogical investigation we have come up to the idea that there are some sufficient modern teaching methods active introduction of which will increase the educational outcomes of the foreign language competence of modern applicants for higher education. So, we have witnessed that the usage of think-outside-the-box activities, such as: gapped texts, pairs of sentences, mini-dialogues, sentence transformations, word-building and sentence formation are likely to provide a set of soft skills necessary for modern applicants for higher education of international relations specialty. We have conducted the research related to possible application of modern teaching techniques, such as: collaborative learning, cooperation of the peers, task-based or activity-based, as well as self-learning. Besides, all these modern methods were supplemented with specially designed real-life activities in English suitable for different foreign language classes. We have created a logical step by step strategy of modern method application in the educational process of shaping foreign language communicative competence necessary for future experts. We believe that modern methodic gives a vast scenario which encourages learners of international relations specialty to study profoundly and study to satisfy their curiosity.

The problem and the aim. Intercultural, foreign language communication is an integral part of the modern electronic learning environment. The professional competence of the future teacher as a subject of information interaction is manifested in the ability and readiness to speak a foreign language while performing official duties, in research activities, for self-realization. The authors propose to use the capabilities of the electronic portfolio for the formation of foreign language communicative competences of students of pedagogical training programs in the information educational space. Research methods. Theoretical analysis and generalization of scientific literature were used to determine the components of the foreign language communicative competence, the content and structure of the electronic portfolio. The method of pedagogization of the information technology, group interaction, assessment by external experts, mutual assessment and self-assessment are used for designing and scaffolding of the electronic portfolio with digital tools. The experiment involved 64 students of the Vyatka State University of the training program 44.03.01 Pedagogical education (bachelor level). The software is the Tilda service (https://tilda.cc/ru/). As a method of statistical processing of the experimental data, the χ2 (chi-square) Pearson test was used. Results. In the experimental group, future tutors-teachers used Tilda tools to determine the structure and content of the electronic portfolio (categories, sections, projects), which was subsequently provided for discussion and analysis by other students, external experts. The assessment of the levels of formation of the foreign language communicative competence was carried out and statistically significant differences in the qualitative changes that occurred in the pedagogical system were revealed, χ2obs. 2 > χ2crit0.05 (7,07 > 5,99). In conclusion features of designing and using electronic portfolios, implemented on the Tilda platform to present achievements in the foreign language communicative, educational, cognitive, professional activity are summarized.
