THE CONCEPT OF OUTPUT AS A SOCIALLY-CONSTRUCTED COGNITIVE TOOL WITHIN SECOND LANGUAGE LEARNING BY MEANS OF PRIVATE SPEECH WITH A STUDENT
Abstract
The article presents a scientific approach in the field of second language learning on the bases of such concepts as “internal condition” (A.N. Leontiev), mental and physical affects (demands), conscious internal and external needs (motives). The above-mentioned ideas make sense of speech and thinking activity by stimulating thought that ends in wish for additional knowledge and ability to conceive of a foreign language. Under the circumstances you can meet the personal needs and create positive guidelines on a second language learning. Thus, motives, interests, circumstances and guidelines are compelled to create a harmonious unity of personality and so perform as an internal energizer, which is an essential condition for communicative teaching within the concept of output with regard to students’ personal characteristics.
