THE USE OF METHODS OF SPIRITUAL AND MORAL EDUCATION IN THE PROCESS OF IMPROVING THE COMMUNICATIVE COMPETENCE OF LINGUISTIC STUDENTS

Abstract

Communicative competence is an important component of the professional development of linguistic students. Possession of this competence allows linguistic students not only to understand native speakers of the studied language but also to convey their thoughts to them, which is necessary for building successful communication. Obviously, the problem of finding the most effective methods for the development of this competence is always significant. In the research, the authors address methods of spiritual and moral education. The relevance of using these methods is due to the active change in globalization and deglobalization processes, as well as the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to the change in value orientations in a dynamically developing world. This caused the destruction of established traditions and norms, and it is precisely the methods of spiritual and moral education that can help preserve and transmit these values, which form part of communicative competence.
