LINGVO-METHODICAL AND ETHNOPSYCHOLOGICAL PROBLEMS OF TEACHING AND EDUCATIONAL WORK WITH STUDENTS FROM INDIA

Abstract

The article is dedicated to discussion of individual problems of work with representatives of Indian students studying in Ukraine. The author’s focus is on the analysis of certain peculiarities of cross-cultural contacts of representatives of this ethnos, who came not only to obtain a higher education diploma, but also to master a new language and new culture. An analysis of the available sources shows that for students from India the very concept of “education” has a more capacious meaning than just “learning”. It includes the process itself, and the result of a person’s mastering a certain social experience, a system of knowledge and skills that are necessary for life in society. A peculiar portrait of this ethnos was compiled on the basis of research by domestic and foreign political scientists and linguists. In accordance with modern standards, Indians belong to traditional peoples, whose life cycle remains virtually unchanged from generation to generation. Religion is the foundation of society, existing institutions embody the experience of previous generations, and people are the product of reason, emotions and instincts. The main features of such ethnic groups (and Indian, respectively) are anti-individualism and anti-rationalism. An illustration of such a campaign could be the behavior of Indian students during the test or the control work. Members of the group, joining together, will make efforts to test everything, even if it negatively affects the results and success of the most prepared. This manifests a peculiar collectivism spirit, which is associated with a long tradition of living with large families, solving important issues with the participation of the whole community, not cherishing personal space, etc. The purpose of the analysis is to find ways to improve the capacity and effectiveness of the educational process in order to achieve a sufficient level of communicative competence of students from India.
