This study examines methods of organizing research activities in foreign language classes for secondary school students. The relevance of the work is determined by the requirements of the Federal State Educational Standard (FSES), which stipulates the development of educational and research activities to enhance the effectiveness of knowledge acquisition and increase student motivation. The leading research method was a questionnaire survey conducted among 29 7th and 9th grade students studying French as their first foreign language. The results revealed that 7th graders show a predominance of extrinsic over intrinsic motivation, while 9th graders demonstrate unstable self-esteem leading to decreased classroom activity, increased passivity, and situational attitude toward learning challenges. Based on the obtained data, the application of "Role-playing" and "Scaffolding" methods is recommended to address the identified issues and develop students' research activities, thereby implementing the system-activity approach embedded in FSES.

The article discusses the specifics of preparing students in the field of study 44.03.01 Pedagogical Education, focus (profile) Primary Education for the implementation of engineering education. The experience of the Faculty of Primary, Preschool and Special Education of Omsk State Pedagogical University and the laboratory of engineering and polytechnical education KONSTRUKTORIUM are presented. The possibilities of including engineering-oriented classes both in the disciplines provided for by the main program and in the course of organizing research and project activities are shown. The volunteer activities of the laboratory and the experience of participation in the regional project TORIO (territory of advanced development of engineering education) are described.

The article examines the specifics of organizing students' research activities in the implementation of STEM education using the example of Armavir State Pedagogical University. The results of the survey are presented, confirming that the availability of special scientific equipment ensures the development of the necessary research competencies for future teachers. It is proved that modern technologies and equipment contribute to the clarity of learning, the formation of research competencies, critical thinking and professional confidence.

Currently, society is in dire need of engineering personnel, which speaks of the need to improve the educational process, the application of modern approaches aimed at the formation of innovative thinking of students, including in teaching physics. One of the directions of improving the level of training of students is the application of STEM education in organizing research activities in teaching physics at school.
