An educational project is regarded as a form of organizing jointactivity making it possible to solve present-day problems of secondary and higher education. In the secondary school pedagogicalopportunities of the educational project implement goals and values of integrative (inclusive) education. Within this form studentsmanifest their individuality, realize the personal resources they possess. Working under the project enables them to reveal their ownsenses, develop and shape them. The culture of self-presentation activity in the educational sphere is formed. University students in theprocess of realizing the project acquire experience and competences of project activity. Thus, the formation of professional backgroundnecessary for future teachers majoring in Philology occurs. To achieve the specified educational goals, dialogue is used in theorganisation of the educational project. It is considered to be a form of joint activity with actualisation, development and shaping of thesenses of the participants of the dialogue. Dialogue helps to organise activity at each stage of project development. This occurs in theprocess of formation and reorganisation of discursive fields, which are formed according to the subject of activity. The work with thediscursive field is organised using a variety of forms of educational support: tutorial, theoretical or problem expert seminar. Theeducational project is implemented in the form of debate. The debate as an educational technology enables the participants (universityand 10th form high school students) to develop the culture of discussion, self-presentation, communication, and textual activity. Theproject is implemented using the cinema material (the Volchok (whirligig) directed by V. Sigarev and the Oxygen by D. Vyrypayevrepresenting the modern art-house trend in cinema). The manifestation of the project participants' success is recorded in two aspects: thequality of the project act and the character of the textual activity. Within the first criterion various positions of the project participantsare identified: project task performer, project task developer, project developer, project activity organizer. Within the secondcriterion the content and character of the participants' textual activity are considered. The characteristics used are the amount, plot,genre, and stylistic integrity of the text, modality and ways of its manifestation. The project activity of the participants is analysed usingE. De Bono's Six Thinking Hats technique. Its analytical potential allows detecting the subjects of the project activity ability to see thecontent and results of their work in a variety of aspects while enabling them to present the project as an integrative sphere of activity. Asan educational methodology product, the description of topicality, goals, stages of the project are presented in the article as well as thecharacteristics of the educational and exploratory effects.
