Innovative pedagogical strategies for the formation of intercultural competence

Abstract

This article examines the principles, strategies and benefits of the communicative approach to pedagogy, highlighting its role in revolutionizing language education. This article explores the meaning of intercultural communication, its problems and strategies for promoting effective intercultural interaction: cognitive, emotional-evaluative, behavioral. The authors draw attention to the need to develop intercultural competence among foreign students studying the Russian language based on studying the culture and traditions of not only the country of the language being studied, but also the region in which they are studying. This article explores how the interaction of language and culture serves as a powerful tool for introducing students to the culture of the target language. The article notes that in an increasingly diverse world, intercultural communication is becoming not just a skill, but a necessity. Understanding the nuances of cultural differences, recognizing potential problems, and using effective strategies are essential to successfully interacting across cultures and cultivating tolerant and welcoming attitudes toward members of different cultures. The authors attempt to consider key strategies for improving interaction between teachers and students.
