RESUMO
Objectives: The article is devoted to the discussion and analysis of the problem of forming communicative strategies for successful adaptation of foreign students learning Russian within a distance educational paradigm. Speaking generally, the problem can be divided into several rather complicated subitems connected with bilingual education: the first aspect is connected with formation of a speaking competence as it is and the second aspect is connected with technical support of this process due to pandemic and post-pandemic restrictions. The problem of technical accessibility of education under the virus spread circumstances turned out to be an essential one because the foreign students came to Russia for study were put in the same conditions as Russian students and were transferred to e-learning no matter they were staying in the country or left for motherland. We should note that the pandemic was the starting point for the development of the latest educational technologies, the introduction of new technical skills, innovative teaching methods and creativity. Digitalization was the only possible way out of the current situation, when there was an urgent necessity to adjust the society life and an educational process by any means. Methodology: The methodology of our research includes several theoretical and empirical investigation methods such as the method of analysis, comparison, experiment and observation. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
