contest task, principles for development, international campaign “Pushkin Dictation”

The article is devoted to one of the main stages of the international educational campaign “Pushkin Dictation”, which is the competition of teaching aids. According to the founders of this action (Association of Teachers of Literature and Russian), a wide approach to the source material, freedom of choice of micro-themes and motives of Pushkin's works are acceptable in compiling the contest tasks. This position cannot be accepted unconditionally. In order to provide equal conditions for all categories of participants in the Pushkin Dictation, it is necessary to create a single scientific and methodical basis for task developers. Based on their own experience in the Pushkin Dictation – 2022, the authors have developed a system of principles for compiling contest tasks, which can be accepted as basic for the Pushkin Dictation on a permanent basis. The paper presents examples of various types of tasks and analyses their strengths and weaknesses from both methodological and historical and literary perspectives. It is also emphasized which content components may influence the success of a contest task. The article traces the mechanism of implementation of the proposed principles in compiling contest tasks for the international campaign, the main goal of which is educational. The article is of interest to the compilers of the tasks for the “Pushkin Dictation – 2023”, as well as to all those for whom the “Pushkin Dictation” has become a means of cross-cultural communication.
