Formation of speech etiquette in primary schoolchildren in the context of the digital transformation of education

Abstract

The article deals with the urgent problem of the formation of speech etiquette in primary schoolchildren in the context of the modern digital transformation of Russian education. The high importance of speech etiquette as a key means of socialization, as well as a factor in the successful integration of the individual into society, is substantiated. The key challenges of the digital transformation of education, due to the specifics of digital communication, are analyzed, namely: asynchrony, depersonification, the predominance of written speech, the risks of violating netiquette. Based on the theoretical analysis of linguistic (communicative qualities of speech: relevance, accuracy, consistency) and sociolinguistic (social roles, structure of situations) components of speech etiquette, as well as the means and innovative tools of the digital environment (simulators, network projects), an integrated model of its formation is proposed, taking into account the current characteristics of the communicative space in which the socialization of children of the "digital generation" (digital natives) unfolds. The structure of the model includes both traditional methods (situation analysis, role-playing games) and digital tools. The implementation of the educational process based on the proposed model is aimed at developing basic norms of speech etiquette and specific skills and abilities within the framework of digital etiquette (netiquette). The special importance of forming an adequate level of speech etiquette is emphasized in order to ensure psychological well-being, prevent conflicts and cyberbullying, develop civic identity and prepare for successful self-realization within the global digital community.
