Introduction

The emerging system of humanities education in a technical college requires new non-standard forms of education and increasing its effectiveness in various specialties and areas. The idea of ​​publishing this manual arose quite a long time ago - in the process of giving lectures, conducting practical classes and seminars over the past 10 years. The manual was determined by various forms of motivation: first of all, the game and creative component, which undoubtedly increases the effectiveness of classes, an operational, visual form of control over the implementation of each lesson, and finally, variability, that is, the breadth of use of the crossword form of tasks. All these and other circumstances determined the present form of the textbook.


The results of the methodological “crossword” experiment indicate a significant increase in attention to cultural studies and its problems, as well as such an important point as attention and careful attitude to reference and methodological literature not only on cultural studies, but also on all subjects of the humanities cycle. It should be noted that the advantage of this publication is the formation of ideological and cultural orientations, creative abilities of students, independent culture of thinking and speech.

The manual includes 12 educational crossword puzzles on all topics of the “Cultural Studies” course. The total number of terms is more than 200.

This manual may be of interest to all those who want to increase their intelligence and cultural potential in the field of the humanities.

According to the author's intention, some terms and definitions included in crossword puzzles are tested with only one word, which makes them difficult to solve.

The teacher is offered the following rating scale depending on the number of correct answers:

80 – 100% - “excellent”;

70 – 80% - “good”;

50 – 70% - “satisfactory”;

Less than 50% is “unsatisfactory”.

The average time to solve one task is 45 minutes. Crosswords can be used as homework, or as a test during independent work.

The main advantage of the crossword form is the operational control of the results immediately after completing the task.
