LINGUODIDACTIC POWER OF PROFESSIONALLY ORIENTED TEXTS OF NEW NATURE
The article analyzes the specificity of professionally oriented texts of new nature, which are fundamentally different from the texts of the «old» nature, that are known as paper professionally oriented texts, that have such characteristics as linearity, completeness, professionally oriented, visuality, monofunctionality, fixed volume. Professionally oriented texts of new nature are characterized by a synthesis of multimedia and verbal structures, hyperlinks, infographics and other elements of meaning expression. Nowadays there is no clear listening or reading, because in a network environment in which foreign students spend a lot of time, they simultaneously see something, hear, and at the same time answer. The analysis of professionally oriented texts of new nature showed that they have the following features: visibility, volume, fragmentation, different channels of perception, accessibility, incompleteness, multifunctionality. These characteristics were obtained as a result of a survey of foreign students, teachers of Russian as a foreign language that work with future foreign specialists at Peoples ’ Friendship University of Russia. The results of the analysis can be taken into account by teachers of Russian as a foreign language while preparing the modern teaching materials for the teaching of this discipline.
