Updating the information-contextual approach in training future foreign language teachers through case studies

Abstract

The article examines the issues of interdependence of the information-contextual approach in the training of future foreign language teachers through case studies and innovative technologies. The relevance of this problem is due to the need to improve the training of future foreign language teachers in connection with the combination of the anthropocentric paradigm of education with innovative technologies, the characteristic features of which are the use of activity technologies, which include case studies. The purpose of this scientific article is to identify the features of using the information-contextual approach in the process of professional training of future foreign language teachers through case studies. The tasks were set to prepare a review of current scientific research and sources related to the topic of the article and to clarify the essence of the key concepts of “information-contextual approach” and “case technologies”. Conclusions on the set goal as a result of the conducted study indicate that the integration processes that characterize the education system are associated with the trends in the development of the methodological basis of the new educational paradigm, which determine the need to update the information-contextual approach in the process of professional training of future foreign language teachers.
