<p>In the informational society while teaching foreign languages the development of students’ skills aimed at searching, analyzing, critical thinking, processing and using the obtained information in the productive speech activity is in demand. In this context, the problem of students’ cognitive self-study development, aimed at “revealing” knowledge while reading, is becoming increasingly important as reading while teaching foreign languages not only contributes to self-development and self-reflection, but also to the formation of a cross-cultural and linguistic personality, which is a priority of linguistic education. The solution of the above-mentioned problems has defined the aim of our research: it is the development and implementation of technologies for optimizing students’ self-study in teaching reading. In the course of our experimental work the implementation of the principle of multi-level approach in the form of five interrelated elements in teaching reading – from the level of mastering reading techniques to the level of critical reading and stylistic comprehension reading – contributed to the ultimate development and improvement of students’ constructive-creative self-study. During the experimental work while testing the effectiveness of our methods of cognitive-practical activities, we concluded that in the process of teaching foreign languages, these methods are an effective way of teaching reading, activating students’ self-study, forming linguistic creativity, which manifests itself in the ability to produce oral and written discourses based on the creative potential development of a linguistic personality. The results obtained in the experiment can be used in educational process while creating and implementing the algorithm of organizing students’ self-study while teaching foreign languages.</p>

The article focuses on the problem of methodological training of future biology teachers to 18 Социальные науки Social Sciences design the environment for personal development of schoolchilds. Innovative technology is revealed as a part of the system of personal-oriented methodological training of students, which is a cyclical development of the design of "personal-oriented methodological objects". The place of video lessons in the system of methodological training and their significance in the formation of a holistic image of the personality-oriented educational process is shown. The creation of video tutorials and their methodological support, developed with the participation of teachers, psychologists and methodologists who own the methodological tools of the personaloriented educational process, is a certain contribution to solving the problem of the content of school biological education at the level of the educational process. At this level, the teacher plays an important role in shaping the content. But even an experienced teacher with practical teaching experience is not sufficiently prepared for the system design of a person - oriented educational process. The author proves the need to create methodological manuals for designing a person-oriented educational process with the inclusion of video tutorials in the form of an electronic application. It is emphasized that an important role in solving this problem can be played by the restoration of the Institute of methodologists who translate the theoretical provisions of science and the methods of practical actions of the teacher.

The article is devoted to the opportunities of blended learning, which is used in teaching foreign languages to students of non-linguistic specialties at Baikal State University. Since recently, the education system has been undergoing significant changes in terms of educational process organization. This is primarily due to global digitalization processes, as well as the forced move to blended or mixed forms of work during the pandemic. The authors of the article suggest using the term blended learning, since such terms as full-time learning, part-time learning do not reflect the whole essence of work in teaching a foreign language. The relevance of using a blended learning is determined by the taught discipline itself - a foreign language, since it is impossible to form the necessary skills and competencies only within the framework of classroom hours. A foreign language instructor has always used a mixed type of work, which has grown into a modified form today. The article analyzes some theoretical issues and provides an overview of blended learning practice. It is also describes the advantages of using this form in the educational process in general and in teaching foreign languages, in particular. In conclusion, the authors point out the necessity of using this form of work in teaching foreign languages.
