Abstract

Different approaches to the definition of ecological competence are considered. The importance of learning virtual communication is proved. The current Ukrainian and foreign works on ecological competence are reviewed. The interactive methods of forming the ecological awareness of English language teachers are listed. The structural components of ecological competence and three interrelated components that influence the formation of ecological competence are indicated. The definition of ecological competence of a foreign language teacher is given. The list of topics for the development of ecological competence has been identified. The conditions for the formation of ecological competence in CLIL lessons are specified. An ecological view of a foreign language is presented. The potential of Internet memes in the formation of virtual communication skills is characterized. The concept of language assessment ecology is presented. It is confirmed that formative assessment is a structural part of the ecology of language assessment. The written tasks in authentic secondary school English language teaching materials are analyzed. The article presents an example of teaching meaning in a mediated sense in English lessons. A sample of teaching the internal dialogism of words in secondary school is shown. A model of teaching meaning in the emergent sense is created. The ways of applying the unpredictable and double-voiced meaning in secondary school English lessons are revealed. The potential use of metaphors for the development of linguistic and environmental literacy is indicated. It is emphasized that each topic studied should form ecological knowledge. It is concluded that the ecological principles of language can be applied already at the stage of the adaptation cycle of basic secondary education
