Abstract

The article discusses the issue of developing students’ skill to self-organize personal activity. Modern students, starting their studies at a university, face a problem of organizing independent activities to master contents of a subject. Self-organization acquires the greatest importance in the aspect of professional activity. Analysis of existing scientific experience allows to define the concept of “self-organization” as a multidimensional notion. The author proposes a step-by-step model for developing the skill of independent organization to make effective cognitive activity based on the use of the project method in the process of teaching students a foreign language. The project method allows students to combine the study of professionally significant content with the opportunity to improve the competence in foreign language. Using the project method enables students to develop foreign language communicative and social competencies. The step-by-step implementation of tasks in the process of preparing project results presentation allows students to cope with the problems of processing information and presenting it in written and oral forms in a foreign language.
