INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES IN THE FORMATION OF FUTURE
ENGLISH TEACHERS’ INTERCULTURAL COMMUNICATIVE COMPETENCE

The article deals with the innovative teaching technologies as a means of the formation of English language communication competence as an important component of future English teachers’ professionalism. The experiment was aimed at assessing the effectiveness of using a set of innovative teaching technologies for the development of the above mentioned competence and involved 50 third-year students majoring in English philology who were divided into experimental and control groups. The following exercises were used in the survey as the examples of interactive teaching technologies: “Microphone”, “Brainstorm”, “Teaching and learning”, “Associative bush”, “Guess the question”, “Different perception”, “Describe my favorite cultural tradition”, “Idioms and proverbs”, “Pros and cons corners”, “Do you know the person?”, What’s appropriate?”. According to the research results, the applied techniques contribute to the development of students’ communicative competence development and also encourage them for self-development.
