the formation of communicative competence of foreign students while studying at Russian universities can only be achieved with the rational organization of educational activities. Oftentimes first-year students have a low level of proficiency in Russian, as a result, it is necessary to look for effective methodological tools for their successful training. The purpose of the study is to develop methodological recommendations on the organization of various types of educational activities when teaching the "Introductory Life Safety Course" to foreign students. Research objectives: 1) To develop an adapted curriculum for the "Introductory Life Safety Course". 2) To identify effective methodological techniques for enhancing the educational and cognitive activities of Chinese students. According to the results of the study, it was found that the integrated application of various methods has shown high efficiency in teaching foreign students, including in order to enhance educational and cognitive activities. A set of methodological techniques may include the use of object-visual tools, the organization of game activities, the use of practical methods to find algorithms for actions in specific dangerous situations, and elements of heuristic methods. These methodological techniques can be applied at the stage of pre-university training of foreign students and implemented in elective courses for foreign students studying in Russia at the 1st year in pedagogical and other specialties.
