Project-based learning technologies in forming communicative foreign languages competence of ESP students

Abstract

The article explicitly reveals the necessity of using the project activity in foreign language classes in uni¬versities, which is one of the most relevant technologies that allows students to apply the accumulated knowl¬edge on the subject. The method of projects contributes to the formation of communicative competence, the development of active independent and critical thinking of students and orientates them tojoint research work. It is revealed that communicative competence consolidates the ability to pronounce monologues and act out dialogues in a foreign language, to perceive, to read and to understand directly the authentic texts.
