Construction of quasi-professional tasks for the methodical training of foreign language teachers

Recognizing the relevance of the competence-based approach and the implementation of context-based learning in contemporary education, researchers in this scientific field often distinguish the quasi-professional level of teacher training, which acts as an intermediate, transitional level from theoretical to practical, professional level. There are a lot of research devoted to quasi-professional activities in teacher training (G.Kh. Valeev, L.F. Nugumanova, N.V. Bekuzarova, E.V. Ermolovich; T.V. Pushkareva, E.V. Kuzevanova). At the same time, there are only a few studies devoted to quasi-professional activities in the methodological training of a teacher of a foreign language (J.S. Fritzko, E.S. Nadtocheva, M.G. Makarchenko). This article is devoted to the parameters for construction of quasi-professional tasks (QPT) for the methodical preparation of a foreign language teacher (FL teacher) on planning, analyzing and implementing teaching activities. The definition and characteristics of these tasks are presented. Examples of quasiprofessional tasks for the methodical training of a foreign language teacher, including the authors’ tasks, are given
