Subject-Based Speaking as a method for the development of foreign-language professional competence among students

The goals of using SBS in the classes in the disciplines «Professionally Oriented Foreign Language» and «Language for Special Purposes» are to ensure maximum immersion in a foreign language professional environment using visual aids, audio and video materials, Internet resources, and interdisciplinary interaction; and also to create conditions for the development of professional foreign communicative competence, the ability to accept, adequately evaluate and respond positively to the proposed behavior.

To create SBS, selection of typical speech situations of professional communication in the field of biology is necessary. For the successful formation of target competence, each selected situation should take into account the following:

- it should have the preparatory stage necessary for the presentation of the task and the accumulation of professional, background and cultural information;

- communication participants are assigned specific roles;

- the professional problem raised in SBS should correspond to the language level of students at this stage;

- it should contain the final stage at which the results are summed up, the effectiveness of communication is evaluated.

An experimental verification of the effectiveness of the method used was carried out at the base of the Faculty of Biology and Geography of Karaganda Buketov University and the Higher School of Natural Sciences of Pavlodar Pedagogical University. In total, 102 students took part in the experiment.

Probation of SBS method, aimed at the formation of a foreign language communicative professional competence of students of the educational program «Biology», has confirmed its effectiveness in the classroom in the framework of the conducted experiment.

The preparatory stage of the experiment has become the foundation of the upcoming training.

The results of the experiment clearly demonstrated the effectiveness of using SBS for the development of foreign language professional communicative competence. Thanks to the phased work using SBS, we received not only an increase in the level of formation of foreign language professional communicative competence, but also increased students `motivation, their autonomy, and contributed to the development of students' thinking and their general erudition.

Experimentally, we have identified the following advantages of this method:

- overcoming the fear of mistakes and the language barrier;

- development of oral speech, since students learn without fear to speak fluently in a foreign language according to the proposed situation;

- increasing the motivation of students, as they see the applied value of a foreign language for their future career.

Thus, foreign language vocational training is most effective if classes in the disciplines «Professionally Oriented Foreign Language» and «Language for Special Purposes» are indeed interdisciplinary in nature, and approaches, technologies and teaching methods used take into account the language and vocational skills accumulated by students' informational experience.

Monitoring the progress of the experiment has found out that this method allows students to acquire and consolidate the necessary foreign-language communicative competencies within their subject area, which allows graduates to enter the international level.

It should also be noted that the tasks we offer are universal in nature and allow students to effectively use the language, speech and professional experience available in the arsenal in real professional areas in the direction of the education program «Biology».
