Annotation: The article raises the problem of the need for scientific research in the work of a teacher within the framework of a taught discipline. This topic, poorly reflected in pedagogical science, is considered on the basis of teaching history in the system of higher and secondary vocational education. The author provides options for controversial historical issues that are unsatisfactorily presented in the educational literature, as well as issues that are not reflected at all in the educational literature or are reflected on the basis of outdated data. Based on the experi- ence of his own teaching, the author introduces the reader to specific examples of research work, the results of which he applies in the classroom, as well as some historical sources that a history teacher can use in scientific activities. At the end of the article, an attempt is made to classify the research activities of a history teacher. The results obtained can be used in the work of a history teacher in the system of higher and secondary vocational education.

Annotation: The subject of the study is the deprivation of the development of professionally oriented social intelligence of future specialists in the field of direct contact work with clients in a pandemic situation. The purpose of the study is to identify psychological mechanisms and their methodological features that contribute to the development of professionally oriented social intelligence of students under the constraints of social communications. The research methods are pedagogical observation, empirical generalization, descriptive and analytical method. The article highlights and characterizes the basic psychological mechanisms aimed at the forming of professionally oriented social intelligence of students. The essence of the process of forming of social intelligence of future specialists is revealed, which consists in the forming of a system of individually expressed cognitive and personal structures.

Annotation: The authors of the article address the problem of finding effective methods of teaching terms in Russian as a foreign language. In accordance with the purpose of the study, the conditions for the successful development of terminology by foreign students are determined, a system of educational tasks is being developed that allows forming the skill of verbal expression of generalization and concretization. This skill allows them to remove difficulties in the formulation of terms and in operating with special vocabulary. The authors relied on the following methods: descriptive-analytical, the method of activating the reserve capabilities of the individual and the team (G.A. Kitaygorodskaya), the principle of interdisciplinary coordination and integrated (professionally and communicatively directed) foreign language teaching, the principle of rational restriction of the vocabulary minimum in order to develop the maximum number of speech skills (V.A. Bukhbinder). The authors demonstrate that the effective use of terminology in professional communication is impossible without speech and cognitive “scenarios”: generalization, concretization, selection of distinctive features and assessment of their (in-)sufficiency.

Annotation: The article is devoted to the relevant problem of choice of the assessment tool of the competencies forming among university students. The authors of the article describe a study related to the use of a professional podcast contest conducted in a foreign language as an assessment tool to determine the level of development of foreign language communicative competence among students of non-linguistic areas studying the discipline “Foreign (English) language in the professional area.” The choice of this assessment tool is dictated by the need to search for alternative forms of control when traditional forms lose their relevance and do not always correspond to new requirements of the educational process. The authors come to the conclusion that the use of podcasting technology in the educational process is effective, since it ensures professional orientation of tasks for control, increases motivation to learn a foreign language and contributes to the realization of the creative potential of students. The practical significance of the study lies in the critical assessment of teaching experience, as well as the possibility of using the presented task in the practice of teaching a foreign language.
