Conducting Research

The article analyzes the necessity of forming the motivation of students of economic faculties to carry out scientific research. The significance of the students’ scientific work for the growth of their creativity, self-realization, the formation of creative critical thinking and the development of individual abilities in solving practical problems, identifying the initiative, expanding the theoretical world outlook and scientific erudition, and the conscious use of theoretical knowledge in future practical activities is proved by numerous studies of modern scholars.However, the motivation of students to perform research remains very low. This, according to the author, is conditioned by the lack of students' needs for such activities, their lack of awareness of the importance of this activity for their professional training and professional self-determination. In particular, conducting research using foreign-language original scientific sources with further presenting the results in a foreign language is a rather complex activity for many students who do not major in foreign languages. In order to form the internal motivation of students for scientific research, the author recommends a number of approaches to organizing a learning process in a foreign language aimed at forming a culture of foreign language broadcasting the formation of students' reflective culture; forming student research culture to interactively interact in the process of performing problem-oriented professional tasks of creating public speaking skills.

Cultural Phenomenon

The culturological direction of professional training of future foreign languages teachers as one of pedagogical conditions of formation of linguoculturological competence is considered and substantiated. The culturological direction of professional training of future teachers is focused on the priority of the role of culture in human life, especially in education. The education system is considered as a social institution for the development of individuality as a subject of culture. Given that culture is an individually mastered spiritual values, the purpose of education is to create a person as an individuality: the development of his spiritual strength, abilities, needs, education of morally responsible and socially adapted person. Thus the content of education is culture, and the way to introduce such content in the professional education of future foreign languages teachers in particular is a culturological approach, which involves close interaction of language and culture, namely language awareness as a cultural phenomenon and promotes intercultural consciousness. The linguistic personality is the bearer not only of spiritual, but also of national and cultural values, which form the central part of the national picture of the world, having different ways of linguistic expression. Consciousness is the acquired quality of personality and social system of knowledge, fixed in the language. Therefore language as a cultural phenomenon in such case appears as the means of forming the consciousness and mentality of the linguistic personality, as well as an indicator of the level of its formation. Multicultural consciousness is the ability of the person to perceive, understand and comprehend the phenomena of the multicultural world that based on self-awareness of the subject of culture through the unity of representations and knowledge about the peculiarity of cultures, systems of their values, necessary for interaction with representatives of other nationalities, solving professional problems in terms of intercultural interaction relying on cooperation and tolerant behavior. The essence of culturological direction in the professional training of future foreign languages teachers is close to the essence of linguoculturilogical competence, which is based on the relationship of language as a cultural phenomenon and linguistic personality as a representative of culture, and therefore a certain national consciousness. This can along with other pedagogical conditions ensure the success of the formation of linguoculturilogical competence of future foreign language teachers.

A new view has been formed on studying foreign languages nowadays: the aim is to make students aware of peculiarities concerning consciousness and culture of another people, that is reflected in its language. The result of studying foreign languages is the acquired intercultural competence based on the formed «world view» of another people, that provides efficient interaction among communicators from various cultures. The article deals with the ways offorming students ’ «world view» of another people in the process of studying a foreign language on the grounds of the concept regarding a person’s cultural development and the theory of activity, that is worked out by representatives of cognitive psychology (L. Vygotsky, О. Leontiev, P. Galperin, І. Zymnia and others). The results of their scientific search have proved that that the language is inseparably connected with the people’s culture; its studying should be realised in a sociocultural context; a sufficient level of mastering a language, which allows using it as a means of communication, confirms the fact ofperceiving the peculiarities of culture reflected in the language. The main method of studying a foreign language is contrasting and comparing realia in a wide context of different cultures. The pedagogical practice justifies the scientists ’ conclusion: studying foreign languages should be built on culturological and communication- and activity approaches, and focused on formation of each student - a future participant of the process of intercultural communication. Students’ consciousness is enriched and their level of communicative culture is improved through perception of realia of another culture, peculiarities of its representatives ’ world outlook.
