Abstract

The article describes and analyzes the pedagogical conditions of forming the communicative competence of future ship engineers. Analysis of literary sources shows that the problem of determining the pedagogical conditions for the training of future ship engineers in the process of studying the English language for professional purpose becomes of particular importance. In our study, pedagogical conditions that most effectively influence the formation of ship engineers' readiness are identified and characterized in the article, namely: provision of positive motivation of cadets to study activities in the process of studying the English language for professional purpose; the introduction of a gamification approach (the use of game techniques in a non-gaming environment to obtain certain results, in our case - the acquisition of communicative competence) in the system of training future ship engineers by means of the information and communication pedagogical environment (platform MOODLE); development and implementation of the author's interactive electronic teaching-methodical complex of the discipline "English language for professional purpose". In order to determine the optimal pedagogical conditions for professional training of future ship engineers in the process of studying English was taken into account the specificity of learning (selection and systematization of the content of educational material, interest in teaching and professional activities, the ability of cadets to study - the features of thinking, memory, etc.). Positive motivation will encourage cadets to develop their desire to study and to find satisfaction in the learning process. The introduction of a gamification approach to learning will help to break out learning games and game techniques (tournament tables, game exercises, badges, quests, progression loops, etc.). Implementation of the author's interactive electronic teaching and learning complex of the discipline "English for professional purpose" will facilitate the formation of future English engineers’ communicative competency for performing professional tasks on board a vessel. In order to achieve the goal, we consider it expedient to use the latest technologies, including the MOODLE distance learning platform, the gamification approach, the systems of blended learning and the communicative approach.
