PRECONDITIONS OF THE APPLICATION OF INTERDISCIPLINARY CONNECTIONS WHILE TEACHING JUNIOR STUDENTS OF MEDICAL UNIVERSITY TO FOREIGN LANGUAGES
The article proves the necessity of the application of interdisciplinary connections to improve the process of teaching foreign languages at non-linguistic medical school. It is caused by general scientific and cognitive preconditions which in total form the theoretical basis for the application of interdisciplinary connections during educational process. The author pays attention to the multilateral interconnections of a foreign language with some professional disciplines (between language disciplines, namely English and Latin, and not language ones, English and Anatomy and Physiology) being taught in the first year of the Medical University and considers them to create some necessary conditions for the effective studying and applying a foreign language in practice.
Keywords: interdisciplinary connections, general scientific preconditions, cognitive preconditions, professional disciplines
