Assessment Indicators of The Level of Development of General Cultural Competence of Future Teachers Based on English-Language Materials
Abstract
This article is aimed at identifying assessment indicators for determining the level of development of general cultural competence of future teachers based on English-language materials. The study reveals the content of general cultural competence through cultural knowledge, intercultural communication skills, tolerance, social activity, and respect for national and universal values. The potential of authentic English-language texts and multimedia materials in developing students’ cultural outlook and communicative culture is analyzed. A system of indicators based on motivational-value, cognitive, and activity-based criteria was developed to assess the competence. The results show that the systematic use of English-language resources contributes to the effective development of general cultural competence.
