An elective course is an additional training session of your choice. "Elective" (English elective) - means elective, optional. A list of such courses is offered to pupils or students at the beginning of the school year. They supplement the content of the discipline, which is considered to be profile in a given school or college, and are also called upon to actualize and individualize the educational process. As a rule, these classes provide deeper knowledge that cannot be gleaned from the standard program.
The elective course has several functions. Firstly, in the event that it contains in-depth knowledge of a specialized discipline, the educational institution where it is practiced becomes specialized. Secondly, if the course is aimed at consolidating and developing a basic educational program, the student receives additional training. This gives him confidence and increases competitive ability when passing the EGE and entering a university. Thirdly, if a student or student receives in-depth knowledge in a certain direction, but at the same time wants to improve in another discipline, electives can help in this. For example, when a student studies mathematics in depth, but wants to learn how to write correctly and without errors, elective courses in the Russian language will give him such an opportunity. Most often, students choose languages, computer science, mathematics, and physics.
Elective classes in the Russian language provide an opportunity for a schoolchild or student to study one of the sections, for example, stylistics. They allow you to get acquainted with many philological disciplines in more detail than in the school curriculum. Among them may be the history of language, linguistics or dialectology.
An elective course on the stylistics of the Russian language is able to improve the communicative skills of students, develop their speech, give knowledge about functional styles. Optional classes will allow the teacher to consistently present complete information about this side of the language and on their basis to form different speech skills among pupils and students.
The main part of the course is a section that characterizes conversational, official-business, scientific and other styles of the Russian language. This is, first of all, information about the main features of each of them, their detailed description and examples. Without this basic awareness, language information and student norms will be incomplete.
In the framework of optional classes, schoolchildren and students will also be able to expand their understanding of Russian literature by studying the style-forming elements that form the unique author's manner of presentation. During the study of literary works, students learn, for example, what trails are, and how epithets, comparisons, hyperbolas and other similar components are involved in creating a special style of the writer. Indeed, it is by the skill of using the means of artistic expressiveness that the manifestation of one's own individuality is achieved in the text.
An online course can also help the student decide on a future profession. After all, he not only integrates stylistics into the general idea of language, but also connects this direction in philology with other sections and disciplines. The elective will direct students to the choice of further education, to clarify the prospects and significance of future activities.
