Communicative-cognitive approach to the process of the
acquisition of new knowledge involves personality-centered
education, individualized
methods, techniques and technologies of teaching. Theoretical analyze of
modern scientific approaches to teaching foreign language, their transformation occurs
under the influence of research in the basic sciences for the methods
of teaching foreign language, which include
psychology and linguistics, the main combination of which has determined
the emergence of a cognitive and communicative approach, the interdisciplinarity and multidimensionality
of its content as a scientific term.
Learning a foreign language
within the framework of communicative and cognitive approach due to the modern
requirements for the educational process in accordance with the mental
characteristics and cognitive preferences of students to develop their adequate
representation of the system studied language and the ability to communicate in
a foreign language to the real environment. Communicative-cognitive approach to training increases
students' interest in learning English, since it based on the account of
communicative needs of students and their patterns of cognition process.
The
cognitive approach to the study of a foreign language contributes to the
accumulation and regulation theoretical linguocultural knowledge, the
development of cognitive abilities of the student. Combining communicative and
cognitive approaches to teaching methodology improves the efficiency of the
acquired knowledge .
In
continuation of this theory were developed cognitive styles, which characterize
the learner's behavior in his cognition - reflexive, impulsive,
field-dependent, tolerant to uncertainty. It was found that cognitive styles
give rise to certain strategies and approaches to teaching foreign languages.
The
most recent studies, were formulated 24 strategies of studying foreign language
as a second language, which can be divided into three main groups:
-
metacognitive strategies, including preliminary planning of the exercise,
awareness of the learning process, evaluation of the results;
-
cognitive strategies related directly to the management of educational material
;
-
socio-affective strategies that imply cooperation, as well as compensatory
strategies for clarifying the incomprehensible.
Further
psychological and methodological studies of foreign science have shown that the
success of acquisition foreign language determines not only mental cognitive
processes related to reason, reasonableness, but also an affective sphere
related to emotions and feelings. The beginning of this process was laid by the
researcher K.Rogers, who is the founder of humanistic psychology, who in 1951
described 19 principles of human
behavior, according to which man is primarily an emotional being, while
remaining a physical and cognitive subject.
The
humanistic concept of K.Rogers applied to the teaching of foreign
languages found its development in the works of the researcher-psychologist
J.Carran and many other scientists, who is among the relevant characteristics
for studying foreign languages, identified such as motivation, level of
anxiety, the level of self-esteem, stiffness, empathy of learners.
Continuing the consideration of
the selected components, it is necessary to note the pattern that low
self-esteem of students often leads to the constraint of students in
communicative and cognitive activity when learning a foreign language or, using
a more familiar term, to "complex", whose antipode is "readiness
for risk". Stiffness is often caused by mistakes typical for trainees,
which negatively affects the effective mastery of a foreign
language. Learners, who are not afraid of mistakes, but they do not necessarily achieve
high linguistic competence. "Super-risky" learners need to be
stopped in time, so that they do not dominate communication.
As has been proved by scientific
research, empathy is understood in modern science as empathy, the ability to
put oneself in another's place, plays an important role in
maintaining communication of the learner in his native language. It is
established that students with a high level of empathy do not necessarily
achieve great success in the acquisition of foreign language.
Communicative
approach could not be better motivated, its goal is to motivate learners to
learn a foreign language by means of accumulation and enhance their knowledge
and experience. Irradiated must be prepared to use the language for real communication
outside the classroom, for example, during a visit to the country the language
spoken, during the reception of foreign guests at home, in the correspondence,
the exchange of audio and video cassettes, the results of the job and with
schools and friends in the target language country. This approach attracts
learners by focusing on topics of interest to them and giving them a choice of
texts and tasks to achieve the objectives of the program. Communicative
ability of students developed through their involvement in a wide range of meaningful,
realistic and achievable targets, the successful completion of which brings
satisfaction and increase their self-confidence.
The
cognitive aspect must be included in the communicative and subordinate to it,
but at the same time it should be shown where there is a basis for this: where
it is necessary to find any analogies that facilitate the
assimilation, or, on the contrary, to reveal differences in order to avoid assimilation.The task of the teacher is to remove psychological and communicative barriers
to communication, to overcome a variety of communication difficulties that
are often associated with the lack of specific background knowledge.
Thus, the
cognitive-communicative approach to learning is the theoretical justification
of the communicative method of teaching foreign languages, that is, the
solution of such methodological issues as selection, organization, the sequence
of studying language and speech material and the ways of presenting it and
training it,taking into account the communicative needs of students of a
certain age and educational conditions; on the other hand, from cognitive
positions, it provides for the conscious assimilation of knowledge and
information of linguistic, regional and cultural-aesthetic character that
satisfy and develop cognitive interests and requests for the emerging
personality of the student who learns a foreign language at the minimum
necessary level.
As
a result, the learner becomes an active participant in the process of
foreign-language instruction, and not simply an object of the teaching activity
of the teacher. In turn, in the learning process there are models of real
communication and features of real foreign language communication, since the
possession of a language system is insufficient for the effective use of a
trained foreign language in conditions of intercultural communication.
