Integration of Interdisciplinary Connections in Russian Language Lessons

Abstract

This article examines both the theoretical underpinnings and practical techniques for integrating interdisciplinary connections into Russian language instruction at the secondary‐school level. It highlights how cross‐subject collaboration enriches students’ holistic understanding, enhances their linguistic competence, and fosters critical thinking. Sample methodologies draw on materials from literature, history, social studies, the natural sciences, and the arts.

Integration of
Interdisciplinary
Connections in Russian
Language Lessons

Abstract:

This article examines both the theoretical

underpinnings and practical techniques for integrating
interdisciplinary connections into Russian language
instructi

on at the secondary‐school level. It highlights

how cross‐subject collaboration enriches students’

holistic understanding, enhances their linguistic
competence, and fosters critical thinking. Sample
methodologies draw on materials from literature,
history, social studies, the natural sciences, and the
arts.

communicative competence.

Introduction:

Contemporary education seeks not

merely to transmit isolated facts, but to help students
build an interconnected worldview and develop the
ability to draw on multiple disciplines. For Russian
language lessons, an interdisciplinary approach:

1. Enriches linguistic material with authentic content
from other fields;

2. Boosts student motivation by situating texts within
broader cultural, scientific, or historical contexts;

3. Develops critical and analytical skills through
comparative and research-based tasks.

1. Theoretical Foundations

1. Holistic Education Paradigm

The Federal State Educational Standards (FGOS)
mandate systemic and variable instruction that
encourages intersubject links and cultivates universal
learning actions (ULAs).

2. Communicative Competence as Knowledge Synthesis

True language proficiency encompasses correct oral

and written usage as well as the skill to employ
language as a tool for gathering and analyzing
information across disciplines.

3. Cognitive Learning Principles

Cognitive psychology research indicates that new
knowledge is better retained when anchored to existing
schemas. Interdisciplinary ties serve as these

“anchors,” facilitating deeper memory consolidation.

2. Forms and Methods of Integration

1. Thematic Unit Planning

Organize language units around themes that naturally
intersect with

other subjects (e.g., “Exploration and

Geography,” “Historical Lyric Genres”).

2. Project-Based Learning

Assign mini-projects requiring students to combine
linguistic analysis with factual research from history,
culture, ecology, or other fields

such as writing an

essay on “Language and Power Across Eras.”

3. Authentic Texts with Cross-Curricular Content

Use real-world materials

newspaper economics

articles,

local

history

accounts,

or

scientist

biographies

as objects of linguistic study (vocabulary,

stylistics, discourse structure).

4. Role-Play and Simulations

Simulate professional situations (press conferences,
interviews with a scientist, environmental debates)

where students must use Russian to accomplish “real”

tasks informed by biology, social studies, etc.

5. ICT-Enhanced Activities

Develop multimedia presentations, videos, blogs, or
podcasts that require collecting, synthesizing, and
linguistically framing information from diverse sources.

3. Sample Lesson Designs

Core Task

1

“Narrative Styles”

History (Eyewitness

Accounts)

Analyze first-person excerpts from

historical witnesses

2

“Language

and

Imagery”

Visual Arts

Compose

a

descriptive

text

accompanying a work of art

3

“Thesis

and

Argumentation in Texts”

Social Studies

Prepare a mini-report on a current

social issue

4

“Technical Terminology

and Norms”

Biology

Create a glossary of botanical

terms from a regional flora text

5

“Dialogue as a Genre”

Geography

(Tourism)

Role-play a conversation between

a tourist and a guide

4. Effectiveness and Assessment

Depth of Interdisciplinarity: Projects are

evaluated on how effectively students integrate
linguistic analysis with factual content from other
subjects.

Development of ULAs: Assessment focuses

on students’ information

-handling skills, problem

formulation,

argumentation

structure,

and

presentation of findings.

Reflective Practice: Learners write short self-

assessments describing new connections they
discovered and how cross-disciplinary knowledge
deepened their understanding of language concepts.

CONCLUSION

Integrating interdisciplinary connections into Russian

language

lessons

cultivates

students’

holistic

worldview, enriches their communicative abilities, and
prepares them for autonomous inquiry. With
thoughtful methodological design, this approach
elevates motivation, deepens linguistic insight, and
equips learners to navigate complex, real-world
