Lingua-didactic bases of bilingual communication skills diagnostics
The article is devoted to the description of the concept of diagnostic measurements for children - bilinguals and foreign students studying Russian outside Russia. The article describes the terminological difference of the concepts „bilingual”, „ino-phone”, „hereditary carrier” and defines the main parameters for diagnosing communicative skills of all categories of students. The article defines the notion of an „onto-linguistic approach”, which the author regards as the main one for the education of children who define two languages as natives. Diagnostics of bilinguals is described from the point of view of the formation of communicative and cognitive skills in junior schoolchildren and is based on the transfer of the formed skills from one language to another. This article presents theoretical foundations and describes the practice of creating bilingual diagnostic measurements, which are recommended to hereditary native speakers and children-foreigners. The use of such measurements will improve the quality of teaching bilinguals to both languages.
