DIDACTIC POTENTIAL AND EFFECTIVENESS OF VISUALIZATION OF EDUCATIONAL MATERIAL IN RUSSIAN LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE LESSONS. | Zenodo Skip to main You are using an outdated browser.

Published November 14, 2025 | Version v1 Journal article Open DIDACTIC POTENTIAL AND EFFECTIVENESS OF VISUALIZATION OF EDUCATIONAL MATERIAL IN RUSSIAN LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE LESSONS. Authors/Creators Abdullayeva Zeinep Talgatovna (Researcher) Description Language and thinking are two complex phenomena that cannot exist without each other. Thought is the inner content of language, and language is the outer material shell of thought.
An abstract thought born in a person's mind turns into words and sentences only through language and reveals itself as a real opinion. The grammatical and logical structure of language systematizes human thinking. The importance of teaching Russian language and literature in the modern educational process is not limited only to language education. This article discusses the issue that the subject of Russian language and literature is a comprehensive tool that forms an intercultural dialogue, develops cognitive skills and has a direct impact on personality formation.

Reed, Rodney Louis Theories concerning the relationship between language acquisition and cognitive development are examined, and implications for education are discussed.
There is disagreement about the sources and processes involved in achieving linguistic performance, and in particular, determining linguistic competence. Among the many theories and modifications of theories are the following: (1) thinking is identical to speaking (Watson, 1923); (2) thinking and speaking interrelate and yield a third unique process of language (Vygotsky, 1962); (3) words and syntactic structures of a language determine how a speaker perceives the world and how he thinks (Whorf, 1956); (4) thinking is an information-processing phenomenon (Bruner, 1964); and (5) speaking is a function of thinking.
Various interpretations of the last notion have been proposed by Chomsky (1965), McNeill (1966), Katz (1966), and Piaget (1967). It is suggested that while language acquisition may not be a sufficient condition for thought with respect to most cognitive functions, it may play a role in significant ways that are at present little understood. Language may well have a more significant role in the formation of thought than Piaget would allow, even though it may still not be the principal determinant of thought claimed by Bruner and Vygotsky.
