METHODOLOGY FOR DEVELOPING LINGUISTIC COMPETENCE BASED ON THE COMMUNICATIVE APPROACH
Keywords:
Linguistic competence, communicative approach, methodology, higher educationAbstract
This thesis explores the methodology for developing students’ linguistic competence through the communicative approach in higher education. The relevance of the topic is determined by the shift from rule-centered language teaching to instruction that treats language as a tool of meaningful interaction. Within this perspective, linguistic competence is understood not as isolated knowledge of grammar or vocabulary, but as the integrated command of phonological, lexical, grammatical and semantic resources needed for effective communication. The purpose of the study is to substantiate the methodological value of the communicative approach and to identify the instructional conditions that make it effective in forming linguistic competence. The study shows that contextualized language input, communicative tasks, integrated skills work and reflective feedback enable students to internalize language forms more deeply and use them more appropriately in real discourse.
