Keyword: «argumentation strategies»

The article discusses the theoretical foundations and practical approaches to the formation of students' argumentation skills in English lessons. The relevance of the topic is determined by the requirements of modern educational standards (the Federal State Educational Standard and the Federal Work Program), in which the development of the ability to logically and convincingly express one's own position is one of the key goals of teaching a foreign language. Special attention is paid to interactive methods that provide a way beyond the standard lesson and a transition to self-education, as well as contribute not only to the development of oral speech and critical thinking, but also to effective preparation for the tasks of the oral part of the Unified State Exam.
