METHODS OF DEVELOPING COGNITIVE ACTIVITY OF CADETS AT THE ENGLISH LESSONS
Abstract
The article is devoted to the development of cognitive activity of cadets and the problems encountered in it at the English language classes. The importance of developing cognitive activity of cadets is highlighted, and methods aimed at developing cognitive activity have been developed. The designed modern educational recommendations contribute to developing cadets’ cognitive engagement. The present research focused on the theoretical substantiation and experimental verification of pedagogical conditions for developing cognitive activity at the English lessons at military higher educational institutions. Findings demonstrate that purposeful activation of cognitive processes in foreign language instruction contributes not only to linguistic competence but also to the formation of professional, intellectual, and leadership qualities essential for modern military specialists.
