Abstract
The analysis of the researches and the activity of modern engineer showed that his communication skills are a vital component of his professional competence nowadays. Having analyzed modern approaches to the development of communication skills we have designed organizational and pedagogical conditions for future engineers’ communication skills development at foreign language classes. They include the organization of teaching process in cooperative groups, the use of portfolio method and mind maps, individual and cooperative, as cross-functional training devices and the use of interdisciplinary case-studies in professional field with the use of discussion moderation methods, according to the recommendations, developed to adapt a designed case to the knowledge and motivation level of each student’s group. The ascertaining stage of our experiment showed that control and experimental groups have the same level of communication skills development which is insufficient.
