MODERN METHODS OF FOREIGN LANGUAGE TEACHING TO STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES

Аннотация

The article describes modern methods of teaching English to students with disabilities. The possibilities of inclusive teaching of a foreign language are considered using the example of visually impaired and blind students as part of a study group of students who do not have visual impairments. Key words: teaching English, students with disabilities, inclusive education, modern methods, teacher's experience. The last decade has been characterized by the growing attention of the teaching community to conducting research to determine the possibilities of implementing inclusive education for individuals with disabilities at all levels of education. The fundamental principle of inclusive education is the exclusion of any discrimination against schoolchildren and students and, at the same time, the creation of special conditions for students with special educational needs. Supporters of inclusive education believe that everyone has the right to receive a full education. In recent years, Uzbek society has largely turned to face people with disabilities, has become much more tolerant and accepting of them, but sympathetic attitude alone is not enough, specific actions are needed, and in education, scientifically based actions. An attentive and sensitive attitude of a teacher to students with visual impairments is certainly an important condition for the success of the educational process. Such an attitude liberates the student, allows him to better reveal his personal potential. However, we should not forget that a student with disabilities is in the same classroom with ordinary students and is involved in the traditional educational process, which makes its own demands on students. The teacher must plan each lesson and academic semester, as well as the practical implementation of the objectives of the university curriculum as a whole. The teacher must pay attention to each student during classroom work [1]. In connection with the organization of inclusive education, teachers have defined and completed the following tasks when working with students with disabilities in teaching a foreign language based on modern methods: 5 CURRENT APPROACHES AND NEW RESEARCH IN MODERN SCIENCES International scientific-online conference Select educational materials that correspond to the academic program, but nevertheless adapted for students with disabilities; develop a system of homework and methods for checking them; develop a convenient form of final control of acquired knowledge for students with disabilities; find optimal electronic resources for solving all of the above tasks; provide maximum assistance to students with disabilities in the process of their adaptation to the educational conditions and to the social life of the university Students mastered the above discipline during the first and second years. Based on modern methods, students with disabilities take part in classroom classes together with other students in their study group. In these classes, students with disabilities use specialized technical means of receiving and transmitting information in a form accessible to them, as well as electronic educational resources. For example, students with visual disabilities use the most common method of reading and writing - Braille, invented by the Frenchman Louis Braille. This is a tactile reading system for the blind, consisting of six-dot signs called cells or squares. Braille exists in different languages and is used by the blind all over the world. Due to the limited speed of writing in Braille, currently the classroom mainly uses a computer, as well as specialized technologies created on the basis of the Braille font. Computer typhlotechnologies are the general name for a set of tools that provide blind and visually impaired people with the ability to independently use a personal computer and programs for technical devices [2]. The ability of people with visual disabilities to independently use computer typhlotechnologies is one of the important areas in the process of inclusive professionally oriented training of students. The 6 CURRENT APPROACHES AND NEW RESEARCH IN MODERN SCIENCES International scientific-online conference following professionally oriented training devices are installed on the computer of visually impaired students: A screen access a program that program that reads converts digital everything that information into happens on the oral speech, which user's monitor (for is read by a screen example, Jaws for reader (for example, Windows, NVDA); Jaws, NVDA). There are also specialized speech synthesizers (additional voices that allow working with foreign languages) for the NVDA program. They are installed separately. During the lesson, the speech access technical device reproduces everything that is written on the computer screen. If special synthesizers are available, this technical device recognizes the language in which the text is written and pronounces it in compliance with the rules for reading
