FEATURES OF TEACHING FOREIGN LANGUAGE READING TO SCHOOLCHILDREN WITH CLIP THINKING

Abstract

The article examines the phenomenon of clip thinking as one of the main characteristics of the modern generation. It is highlighted that there is still no clear unambiguous scientific definition of this phenomenon and the development of methods for its study is required. The attention is focused on both positive and negative sides of this type of thinking. The authors have made an attempt to reveal the methodology for organizing the educational process precisely based on the features of clip thinking not eliminating them. The fact is emphasized that the emergence of clip thinking is quite natural and traditional teaching methods should not be imposed on modern schoolchildren. Methods of cooperative learning are proposed that help level out the signs of clipped thinking and develop the skills of conceptual foreign language reading. The article demonstrates the ways of using information communication technologies to motivate students with this type of thinking.
