Contemporary sociolinguistic and psycholinguistic theories and studies lay the ground for intercultural discourse as a key to the interpretation of social interactions in the global society. The requirements of individual competence also change at the same time. This competence is comprehended as a complex of knowledge, skills and attitudes that allow effective coping of individuals in situations determined more frequently by cultural differences. The teaching of Bulgarian language and literature is teaching culture and our study interprets the context of intercultural communicative education as the change and the challenge of today’s world. We are together – it is only necessary is to learn how to live together. 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z https://lib.uni-plovdiv.net/handle/123456789/352 FUNCTIONAL LITERACY AS A TOOL FOR REAL LIFE PROBLEM SOLVING Milanova, Evelina In this article functional literacy (FL) is viewed as a tool for gaining social experience and coping with every day problems. Based on the concept that improving FL of adolescents is one of the main goals of modern communicatively oriented Bulgarian language training (5 – 12 grades), this text focuses on building a methodological variation of activities for teaching and learning reading skills in lower secondary education. What has been put forth is the idea that the FL acquired by pupils in Bulgarian language classes is a prerequisite for the successful personal and professional development of young people and their effective integration into society. 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z https://lib.uni-plovdiv.net/handle/123456789/351 YAVOROV'S LOVE POETRY – SYMMETRIES AND ASYMMETRIES OF THE SOUL (A Model of a Lesson Unit) Bozhinova, Kanelia This article examines Yavorov’s love poetry as symmetries and asymmetries of the soul. The analogy method is experimented in two classes in the eleventh form. It is examined as a ‘megamethod’ in the literature teaching, developing logical and imaginative thinking. The analogy is expressed in the symmetrical idea of elating love (the poem „Two Beautiful Eyes“) and in the asymmetry of the dissonances in the love feeling (the poem „A Groan“/ „To Lora“). 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z https://lib.uni-plovdiv.net/handle/123456789/350 THE CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK OF STOYAN ZAIMOV’S METHODOLOGY OF 1894 Cholakov, Ivan The issues of conception, development and periodization of the instruction methods in teaching Bulgarian have not been subject to comprehensive study yet. This also concerns the first methodology publications in the nineties of the 19th century, including the outstanding Methods of How to Teach Writing and Reading in the First School Year by St. Zaimov in 1894. The paper elaborates on the methodical concepts presented therein, which contributed to the formation of the Bulgarian methodical thought at the close of the 19th century, and altogether reflected the positive impact of the Russian and German pedagogical schools of that time. 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z
