Пояснительная записка В новом образовательном контексте изменяется не только функция педагога, также изменяется и позиция обучаемого. Из пассивного объекта научения, получателя готовой учебной информации он трансформируется в субъект познавательной деятельности, активный субъект учения, самостоятельно « добывающего» необходимую информацию и конструирующего необходимые для этого способы действия. Инновационная составляющая образовательного процесса прослеживается в ряде изменений, среди которых мы отметим перераспределение времени между самостоятельной и аудиторной работой в пользу первой и формирование новой установки образования на развитие мышления и деятельности. Таким образом акцент в обучении перемещается с преподавания на учение как самостоятельную деятельность студентов в образовательной среде, что в самом общем виде прописано во ФГОСах 3-го поколения. Эти изменения предполагают реструктуризацию системы самостоятельной работы в вузе, иного уровня готовности преподавателя и студента к своим новым ролям, заданным инновационной образовательной парадигмой. Владение иностранным языком, в частности английским, является тем самым компонентом, который дает студенту возможность быть мобильным в международном образовательном пространстве. При объёме часов, отводимых на эту дисциплину в неязыковом вузе, потенциал иностранного языка как средства профессионального общения и роста может быть реализован при высоком качестве самостоятельной работы студентов.
