It has been revealed that interactive is a special form of the organization of cognitive activity which has the specific, estimated goal. Its essence is in the fact that educational process takes place in conditions of continuous, active interaction. To improve the efficiency of the learning process three components of communication are required, namely: communicative, interactive and perceptive.

In the system of interactive training we define the following basic principles of a technique of cooperation: 1) positive interdependence; 2) individual responsibility; 3) identical participation; 4) simultaneous interaction. Interactive forms of work are seldom applied while teching written language. Interactive teaching of a written language at the higher school has to form and develop ability of discussion, the analysis, mutual testing and mutual evaluation. The main objective of it is the development of practical skills and abilities allowing to create effectively written statements of necessary scope. Methods of interactive teaching have been characterized. These include presentation, role-playing games, discussions, "brainstorming", competitions with practical tasks to them and their subsequent discussion, a method of projects. Game is the kind of activity, most available to children, a way of processing of the impressions received from the outside world. Each game has its own features, but is individual in each case. The discussion is one of interactive activities. It is purposeful and ordered exchange of opinions, statements with the aim to "find the truth" or form of a point of view in participants. Very important point that the discussion is conducted among peers, the teacher controls only its course, but not content, that is it becomes strong means of self-expression. One of the most discussable forms of lesson is "Brainstorm". The purpose of the game is ensuring generation of the ideas for the extraordinary solution of a certain problem.
