Enhancing Linguocultural Competence In Bilingual Students Through Teaching Russian As A Foreign Language

The article examines methodological approaches to improving the linguocultural competence of bilingual students in the course of Russian as a foreign language. The relevance of the study is determined by the need to develop students’ ability for adequate intercultural interaction in a bilingual educational environment. The paper уточняет the content and structure of linguocultural competence and identifies the specifics of its formation among first-year students of non-philological specialties in the context of Karakalpak–Russian bilingualism. Linguocultural, contrastive, communicative-activity-based, and cognitive methodological approaches are described and tested; these approaches are implemented through a system of linguoculturally oriented tasks. The research results confirm the effectiveness of an integrated inclusion of linguistic, cultural, and communicative components in the process of teaching Russian as a foreign language and demonstrate a positive dynamic in the development of linguocultural competence among bilingual students. The materials and conclusions of the article may be used in the practice of teaching Russian as a foreign language in non-linguistic higher education institutions and in the development of teaching and methodological resources for bilingual learners.
