The article presents a theoretical analysis of the social and communicative competences in children in preschool age. The aim of the research is to determine the features of the social and communicative competences during preschool age. A theoretical analysis of various scientific views on the subject has been made. Communicative competences are examined through M. Lisina's concept in communication with adults and peers.

These can also be useful for parents in raising and educating children.

The present work is dedicated to innovative educational practices, that are based on teaching and learning through the methods of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), combined with the use of various digital tools. These project activities are suitable for implementation in the learning process both in face-to-face and distance learning. They enable the development of communication and collaboration skills, critical thinking and problem solving, creativity and innovation, as well as the creation of digital content. The described practices and digital tools are used in the preparation of teachers in various qualification courses conducted by the Department for Qualification and Professional Development of Pedagogical Specialists at University of Plovdiv "Paisii Hilendarski". They are used and implemented also in education of students in lower-secondary schools (5th – 7th grade). The teaching practices are based on the results of a three-year study of already trained Bulgarian teachers, who try them daily in the learning process and notice their positive impact on students. The article describes a realized STEM project, named "European countries".

The problem of the relationship between consciousness and unconsciousness has proved to be not only a neuralgic point in the interdisciplinary debates throughout the 20th century, but one which maintains its notable place in the present day. Taking the long and complex history of the encounters between Sigmund Freud's psychoanalysis and Edmund Husserl's mature phenomenology as a theoretical background, the present paper offers a novel approach towards the consciousness/unconsciousness problem, situated within the peculiar sphere shaped by the dialogue between Freudian and Husserlian notions. What we offer is a preliminary sketch for an analytics of affectability that opens a path toward reexamining some key psychoanalytical concepts such as unconscious, repression and memory which can be a valuable contribution to the development of phenomenological conceptualizations of different forms of traumatic experience.

The "Minglеˮ technique has the potential to develop both the speaking skills of foreign language learners and their accuracy in terms of grammar and vocabulary. The purpose of the present study is to present the technique in all its varieties, to outline its advantages and disadvantages, and to test its effectiveness in terms of developing accuracy in the formation of sentences in the present simple tense. The study was conducted with 88 fourth-grade students, divided into two groups – experimental and control during the academic year 2021/2022. The results of the study were analysed according to five indicators and the performance of the experimental group was on average 9.4% better than that of the control group. This difference gives reason to consider that the "Mingle" technique is an effective exercise that improves learners' ability to apply the knowledge related to the studied grammar. It also increases the opportunity for oral practice and gets learners moving in class.
