Abstract:
Mainly seen in rising interest to learning foreign languages in our state. There has been made many attempts to create new ways and methods of teaching foreign languages. This research is based on language properties of purely English language, and comparative analysis linguistic features between English and Uzbek. The rising interests to learning foreign require establishing new methods and ways of teaching language. The most effective method of teaching language is considered to find counterparts of language units and expressions from Uzbek language. Besides that it is important to take into consideration special features of national similarities of native language.

Abstract:
While there is abundant research on motivation in second-language learning, we know little about what motivations students may have for choosing a specific language of study in the Norwegian university context. The number of students who apply to English study programs every year is high, while the numbers for the traditional foreign languages beyond English, especially German and French, are concerningly low. The present study surveyed students in their first year of university language study, asking key questions about their reasons for choosing their language of study. Overall findings are that students of English are particularly instrumentally motivated, believing that English will be useful for future work. Students of French and Spanish, on the other hand, are more affectively motivated, while German students fall in between the other languages in responses to questions of motivation. While all students generally feel that knowledge of foreign languages beyond English is important, Spanish students were especially consistent in this response. In terms of interest in sub-disciplines of university language study, all student groups were relatively similar in showing a stronger interest in learning about the cultural and social aspects of countries where the language is spoken compared to literature formal aspects of language. The main conclusion is that motivations may be different for studying different foreign languages beyond English, and that in order to recruit more students to academic language programs, focusing on each specific language and its potential motivations is necessary.

Abstract:
Substantial exposure to language is one of the most effectively proven approaches to language learning. In Cameroon, however, even with a fairly considerable exposure to the English Language, foreign language learners still lack very basic communicative competencies in it relative to other foreign languages. In this study, we sought to describe EFL learners’ degree of exposure to different foreign languages in the Francophone system of education vis-à-vis their performances, explore some striking pedagogic differences in the teaching of English and other foreign languages and finally assess the extent to which learners’ motivations affect their mastery of English and other foreign languages. Drawing from an analysis of a three-year statistics of final year EFL learners’ performances in Lycee de Nkolbisson, an oral assessment, interviews on pedagogic approaches and the motivations of 60 EFL learners, we realized that though learners are more exposed to the English Language, they tend to lack very basic communicative skills in it compared to other foreign languages in the Francophone system of education. It was also realized that, besides poor motivation, there are also pedagogic lapses in the teaching of English to Francophones in the country. This led us to the conclusion that while, practically, pedagogic inconsistencies could account for the remarkable incompetence among EFL learners in Cameroon, it seems to be a micro reflection of a macro indifference towards the learning of English among Francophones in general.

Abstract:
Nowadays foreign language is not just a part of nation's culture, it is also the guarantee of student’s successful career in the future. The achievement of high level proficiency of foreign language is not possible without fundamental language training in higher education institution. Most of them in our country provide students with at least two or even three foreign languages. In the context of higher school reforming, important changes in the educational technologies of foreign language teaching are envisaged. Modern language education is also gradually being modernized, introducing a modular rating system for teaching foreign languages. Interdisciplinary integration, democratization and economization of education determine the manifestation of innovative components in the teaching of the foreign languages. All this requires the formulation of the new claims for teaching and a foreign language teacher in the Free Economic Zone. At the current stage of society development, the purpose of foreign language teaching in higher education institutions is students' mastering of communicative competencies that will allow them to implement their knowledge, skills and abilities to solve specific communicative tasks in real life situations. The introduction of the new effective methods of foreign language teaching in the process of preparing students of humanities and technical specialties has become not only desirable but also necessary. Innovative orientation requires teachers to master and apply the pedagogical innovations, as well as stimulate the search for new forms and methods of educational process organization. High-quality language training of students is impossible without the use of modern educational technologies. The most effective are the professionally-oriented foreign language learning, the project work in teaching, the application of information and telecommunication technologies, the work with educational computer programs in foreign languages (multimedia system), the distance technologies in foreign language learning, the use of Internet resources, the foreign language teaching in the computer environment (forums, blogs, e-mail, etc.). Nowadays, the methodology of the use of computer programs is being developed actively getting more used. Computer programs offer ample opportunities to improve the process of foreign language learning, increasing its efficiency. The computer program provides the perception of information through auditory and visual channels, so it also allows you to organize teaching and control the foreign language acquisition in different modes of independent search and at different levels of complexity. Foreign language teaching means are important to ensure the full and effective organization of students' learning in the classroom to master foreign language activities.

Abstract:
Foreign language study is an increasingly prominent part of education everywhere. Not only are high school students nearly always required to study a foreign language, but many lower and middle schools have added foreign languages to their curricula, whether as enrichment or a requirement. While it has long been recognized in the learning disabilities field that foreign language study would be a terrific challenge to learning disabled students, somehow this fact has been widely ignored in the field of foreign language instruction and in schools in general until very recently. The following article looks into the ways to teach foreign languages to students with learning disabilities.

Abstract:
Abstract The 2011 UK Census was the first ever to ask a question about language in England. The period during which the census was planned coincided with a period of intense politicisation of the language issue, which had previously not been a major point of controversy. The census results showed that 98.3% of the adult population either spoke English as their ‘main language’, or could speak it well or very well. In 4% of households no adults spoke English as a main language. These statistics produced an intense media reaction focussed on the number of people who supposedly could not speak English, with some high-level misunderstandings about what the figures meant. This paper discusses the pervasiveness in the census process of ideologies about language, and how an apparently honest attempt to collect information for service providers was used to justify anti-immigration discourse and the reduction of services for non-speakers of English.

Abstract:
English is one of the foreign languages taught from elementary to university. However, English is to be unswallowed bitter pill for non-English students. This is caused by the growing concepts of negative attitude about English, “English is frightening, English is hard to study, etc.” Attitude plays a vital role in learning any disciplines of knowledge includes English. Developing competencies and skills of English will not be achieved without noticing the supporting factors. In line with, this article discusses the concept of attitude, language attitude, students’ attitudes toward English, and the factors that influence students’ attitudes toward English as a foreign language.

Abstract:
The topic of thesis is teaching of English vocabulary at the lower levels of the Finnish comprehensive school after a three-year-study. The target group of the research is 77 11-year-old non-native English language learners. Material consisted of vocabulary tasks that were answered by pupils in the written form. The research problem was to find out whether word lists were suited for educational purposes and empirically examine vocabulary competence of a young, non-native foreign language learner. The theoretical part consists of Basic English word list compiled by Charles Kay Ogden, classification of words and some questions involved in language teaching. In the empirical part research method used was counting word frequencies in learners’ answers and comparing them with Basic English word list. The most essential research results were announced as word findings divided into word classes and explained verbally and in the form of tables. Purpose of the research was to find out whether language used by learners was Basic English or not

In 2009/2, the Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC) establishes a new program entitled Curso de Licenciatura em Letras - Inglês, via distance learning (DL), having as objective the education of future English teachers. The present research aims at investigating how students of the program, taking the courses Compreensão e Produção Oral em Língua Inglesa IV and Compreensão e Produção Oral em Língua Inglesa V perceive the use of the resources and activities aiming at the development of their linguistic skills in English. The data were collected from 25 students of those courses who answered an online questionnaire, which was composed by closed questions and, mostly, by closed questions with justification. Among those 25 participants, 5 were chosen to participate in a second data collection process, a semi-structured interview. The data analysis consisted of careful reflection and interpretation of that data. That analysis reveals that the participants perceive both main resources, and the activities developed with them, to be adequate for developing their oral production skill in different aspects. The participants perceived the Final Projects as an opportunity for them to focus on matters related to accuracy, such as the opportunity of working on grammar and pronunciation. On the other hand, the Skype Chats, were perceived by the participants as positive as they give them the opportunity to formulate sentences quickly and spontaneously in the target language.

In the present study, the defensibility of test items is investigated in three different testing situations: proficiency tests, classroom tests, and university entrance examinations. The defensibility is judged using the concept of validity as put forth by Messick (1989) for educational testing and by Bachman (1990) for language testing, i.e., in terms of validity of the interpretations and actions based on test item responses, considering the justifications coming from evidential basis and consequential basis. For the investigation, in terms of evidential basis, for construct-related evidence, constructs of language ability and reading ability are used, and for criterion-related evidence, the criterion defined for university studies by Weir, Huizhong, and Yan (2000) and the framework proposed by Bachman (1990) for the assessment of authenticity of test tasks in relation to the criterion tasks are used. In terms of consequential basis, an appraisal of the consequences is based on Bachman's (1990) notion of fairness and Shohamy's (2001) critical perspective of the use of tests. The method used for the investigation is based on recent notion of validity as argument-based proposed by many scholars in the area of testing. It is also based on the validity table proposed by Chapelle (1994) for considerations of the forces of the arguments, both in favor, or against the validity of the interpretation of ability based on the items, with the additional feature of a third column, with the refutation of the argument against, as suggested by Davidson (personal communication, 2004). Considering the arguments provided for each item, it is possible to conclude that some items are defensible and some are not. Some defensible items focus on skills such as identification of syntax and cohesion, in particular lexical cohesion, inference of word meaning, elementary and propositional inferences, and identification of functional value. Some non-defensible items have the construct-irrelevant aspects of assessing constructs other than reading ability, such as vocabulary knowledge, background knowledge, writing ability, illustration comprehension, and the criterion-irrelevant aspect of assessing tasks not present in the criterion, such as the tasks specific for reading non-academic texts as poems, narratives, advertisements, and technical problems impeding test takers to perform at their level of ability. Other non-defensible items have the consequence of being biased once specific background knowledge is presupposed for their answers. The political and pedagogical implications of the conclusions claim for the choice or development of items incorporating features of validity, in all the facets, considering both evidential basis and consequential basis, so as to make them more defensible.

Abstract. The purpose of this case study is to investigate how English language learning happens in an environment where the language used to facilitate learning is a foreign language for the learner. The research uses sociocultural theory as basis for understanding the phenomenon as students and teacher in a multilingual classroom bring their own language and culture to an environment to engage in acquisition of a third language. The method for research was a semi-structured group interview of six individuals who all spoke a dialect of Persian and had spent two years in Finland. A thematic analysis of the interview yielded eight themes that were divided to two groups; one focused on the community level of language learning and the other on multilingualism in language learning. The community level focused on classroom and student interaction, and analysis showed that both Finnish and the L1 were used as a tool for understanding what was being taught in the classroom. Learning happened in the classroom, between peers and autodidactically, and attitudes towards learning were brought from the home country to the classroom. Motivators, outside the aim, were mostly positively related to the teacher and negatively related to competition between peers. The aim for language acquisition was English as a lingua franca. Multilingualism on the individual level was equally present in both in language acquisition and use. Finnish was used as a support for learning grammar and vocabulary especially in relation to its link as a language used in a Western culture, however the L1 was the preferred language for learning especially when students studied on their own as this language too had similarities to English to draw from. Students’ choice in language in speech reflected both preference due to proficiency as well as word choice due to linking languages to various environments. Translation was the most important tool in learning and Finnish was a useful language in this regard due to the translation programmes yielding better results in this language. Language loss was related to the proficiency in the specific language as well as how demanding the environment was as Finnish and English were both prone to language loss though Finnish less so due to being used at a school environment. The L1 was susceptible to language loss as everyday interaction did not demand as high a level of language use.Tiivistelmä. Tämän tapaustutkimuksen päämääränä on selvittää, kuinka englanninkielen opiskelu tapahtuu ympäristössä, jossa opetuskieli on oppilaalle vieras. Tutkimus käyttää lähtökohtana sosiokulttuurista teoriaa, jolloin tarkastelussa tärkeänä pidetään näkökulmaa, jossa oppilas ja opettaja tuo oman kulttuurin ja kielensä opiskeluun ja nämä yhdistyvät kieliluokassa kolmannen kielen opiskeluun. Tutkimusmetodina käytössä oli kuuden henkilön puolistrukturoitu ryhmähaastattelu, jossa kaikki osallistujat puhuivat jotain persiankielen murretta ja olivat olleet Suomessa kaksi vuotta. Haastattelun temaattisen analyysin avulla syntyi kahdeksasta teemasta kaksi suurempaa ryhmää; yksi keskittyi opiskeluun yhteisötasolla ja toinen monikielisyyteen. Opiskelu yhteisötasolla keskittyi vuorovaikutukseen sekä luokassa että oppilaiden välillä. Haastattelun analyysi osoitti, että sekä L1 että suomen kieli olivat luokassa työvälineinä, joiden avulla opetettavaa materiaalia pystyttiin ymmärtämään. Oppimista tapahtui luokassa, oppilaiden välillä, sekä autodidaktisesti ja oppilaat toivat kotimaastaan oppimiseen liittyviä asenteita. Motivaattorit, itse kielen oppimisen syyn lisäksi, liittyivät enimmäkseen positiivisesti opettajaan ja negatiivisesti oppilaiden väliseen kilpailuun. Englannin oppimisessa oppilaat tähtäsivät kielen käyttöön yhteiskielenä. Monikielinen taso keskittyy yksilön kielen opiskeluun ja oli myös näkyvissä yksilöiden kielenkäytössä. Suomea opiskelijat käyttivät sanaston ja kieliopin opiskeluun varsinkin koska suomen kieltä, kuten myös englantia, käytetään länsimaissa. Oppilaiden L1 oli silti käytössä varsinkin yksin opiskelussa, sillä myös tässä kielessä on kielellisiä yhteyksiä englannin kieleen. Oppilaiden kielivalintaan vaikutti se mitä oli mukavinta käyttää. Tämä näkyi yksittäisissä sanavalinnoissa, riippuen siitä mitä kieltä oppilas käytti tietyssä kontekstissa. Kääntäminen oli kielen oppimisessa tärkein työkalu ja suomen kieli oli tähän liittyen käytännöllinen käännösvälineiden tarkkuuden vuoksi. Kielen häviäminen liittyi paitsi kielitaitoon, myös siihen kuinka vaativaa kielenkäyttöä ympäristö vaati, sillä englanti ja suomi molemmat saattoivat kärsiä huonon kielitaidon takia, vaikkakin suomi vähemmän koska se oli koulukieli. Häviäminen näkyi myös L1-kielessä koska ympäristö ei vaatinut korkeatasoista kielenkäyttöä.

Abstract:
In the modern world, education does not stand still, it is constantly updated and reformed. One of the most important requirements is knowledge of not only Kazakh and Russian languages,but also English. Currently, much attention is paid to the level of preparation for IELTS. High school students should have a good command of the English vocabulary. In order for students to achieve certain success in learning the language, the teacher needs to apply new methods and teaching techniques that will stimulate and motivate students, arouse their interest in the subject. Currently, English lessons require the ability to get information from different sources, use it and create it yourself. Using the discussion method gives the teacher new opportunities in teaching a foreign language.

Abstract:
"Globalization and intercultural communication are stepping up the demands for modern specialists’ linguistic competencies. To provide successful professional communication, competitiveness and mobility, the graduates of higher education are to master two or more foreign languages. In this regard, it seems important to study the features of multilingual education, identify the difficulties that arise in multilingual teaching and outline the ways to overcome them. Although, there is a number of studies devoted to the impact of the native language on foreign language acquisition, the issue of learners’ first and second foreign language interaction seems to be inadequately treated and there is a lack of research on factors that increase learners’ second foreign language proficiency in three-language contact (i.e., their native, first and second foreign language). In particular, little attention is paid to cross-linguistic skills transfer or to lexical interference patterns that arise among students mastering their second foreign language. This paper is devoted to lexical interference that occurs when English for Special Purposes (ESP) is taught as the second foreign language to university students studying French or Spanish as their first foreign language. The purpose of the work is to identify which language(-s) are the source of interference through analyzing students’ errors. The hypotheses of the study are as follows: in case of receptive activity (reading) the language which is closely related to the target language will serve as the source of positive transfer. In productive activity (writing and speaking) lexical interference will arise and play a significant role. The source of interference will be learners’ first foreign language. To test the hypotheses, a pilot study was conducted, during which typical lexical errors of Russian-speaking students studying ESP as their second foreign language and French or Spanish as their first foreign language were identified. The control group were students with native Russian language and English as their first foreign language. The research methodology included questionnaires, testing and interviews. The research participants were RUDN University students. The results of the study confirm the presence of positive transfer and lexical interference in ESP terminology acquisition, the source of which is learners’ first foreign language. Learners’ typical mistakes are associated with the use of articles, prepositions, adjective order, fully and partially assimilated cognates, depend on their language experience and are due to their first foreign language interference"

Abstract:
The teaching of languages in Europe emphasises the learning of English, increasingly with a view towards using it in a professional and academic environment. One development over the last few decades in response to this demand for more specialised English proficiency has been the introduction of Content-and-Language-Integrated Learning (CLIL). One of the major benefits of CLIL lies in its potential in fostering language abilities that relate directly to the school subjects taught through the integrated learning of new content and new aspects of the foreign language. I aim to contribute here to our conceptualisation of this nexus by positing and presenting evidence for a dual perspective of disciplinary language. This definition embraces both the production of lexico-grammatical and discursive patterns appropriate to the subject being taught and the verbal and multimodal practices associated with acquiring them.

Abstract:
The paper deals with the urgent problem of application of virtual reality in foreign language training. Statistical data confirms that the number of smartphone users, Internet users, including wireless Internet users, has been increasing for recent years in Ukraine and tends to grow. The coherence of quick mobile Internet access and presence of supplementary equipment enables to get trained or to self-dependently advance due to usage of virtual reality possibilities for education in the stationary classrooms, at home and in motion. Several important features of virtual reality, its advantages for education are discussed. It is noted that virtual reality is remaining a relatively new technology in language learning. Benefits from virtual reality implementation into foreign language learning and teaching are given. The aspects of immersion and gamification in foreign language learning are considered. It is emphasized that virtual reality creates necessary preconditions for motivation increasing. The results of the survey at two higher education institution as to personal experience in using VR applications for learning foreign languages are presented. Most students at both universities have indicated quite a low virtual reality application usage. Six popular virtual reality applications for foreign language learning (Mondly, VRSpeech, VR Learn English, Gold Lotus, AltSpaceVR and VirtualSpeech) are analyzed. It is stated that the most preferred VR application for foreign language learning includes detailed virtual environment for maximal immersion, high- level visual effects similar to video games, simple avatar control, thorough material selection and complete complicity level accordance of every element and aspect, affordability, helpful and unobtrusive following up.

Abstract:
The central thesis of this paper is that e-learning courses can have a significant impact on English language for specific purposes (ESP) proficiency of mining mechanical engineering students. The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of ESP Moodle-based course “English for Mining Mechanical Engineers” and to reveal the results of its experimental approbation. In order to identify the lectures’ and learners’ needs we have applied the survey research. The survey confirmed the greatest demand for Moodle courses that include all the elements of a coherent training manual to provide self-development of engineering students. The interview results contributed to design of author’s ESP course syllabus. The importance and originality of this study are that to approbate the course materials’ effectiveness two approaches have been adopted simultaneously. The first is blended learning method based on e-learning platform applied in the experimental group and the second one is classic in-class instructor-led studying used in a control group. Students’ progress in ESP proficiency has been assessed using the cross assessment method. The experiment has validated the initial hypothesis that the special online courses focused on honing foreign language skills and integrated in the domain of specific professional knowledge have a beneficial effect on students’ communicative competencies in general. There were identified the advantages of self-tuition based on Moodle platform. The Moodle course lets the teachers save considerable in-class time to focus more on communicative assignments. The findings of this study have a number of practical implications in ESP online courses development.

The article is devoted to a comparative analysis of popular online dictionaries and an overview of the main tools of these resources to study a language. The use of dictionaries in learning a foreign language is an important step to understanding the language. The effectiveness of this process increases with the use of online dictionaries, which have a lot of tools for improving the educational process. Based on the Alexa Internet resource it was found the most popular online dictionaries: Cambridge Dictionary, Wordreference, Merriam–Webster, Wiktionary, TheFreeDictionary, Dictionary.com, Glosbe, Collins Dictionary, Longman Dictionary, Oxford Dictionary. As a result of the deep analysis of these online dictionaries, we found out they have the next standard functions like the word explanations, transcription, audio pronounce, semantic connections, and examples of use. In propose dictionaries, we also found out the additional tools of learning foreign languages (mostly English) that can be effective. In general, we described sixteen functions of the online platforms for learning that can be useful in learning a foreign language. We have compiled a comparison table based on the next functions: machine translation, multilingualism, a video of pronunciation, an image of a word, discussion, collaborative edit, the rank of words, hints, learning tools, thesaurus, paid services, sharing content, hyperlinks in a definition, registration, lists of words, mobile version, etc. Based on the additional tools of online dictionaries we created a diagram that shows the functionality of analyzed platforms.

Abstract:
Using of new learning and IC technologies is necessary for effective learning of modern students. Their specific educational needs are: using of mobile ICTs, collaboration, challenging tasks and entertainment. Appropriate learning environment should be created to satisfy all these demands. It ought to deal with cloud-based technologies (for 24/7 access, individual and group work according to a personal schedule), augmented reality (for creating of firm links between real and virtual objects), content and language integrated learning (for immersion in an additional language and creation challenging groups and personal tasks in language and non-language subjects). Using these technologies in complex provides social and ICT mobility and creates positive conditions for developing 9 of 10 key competencies. The paper deals with the features, problems and benefits of technologies’ implementation in secondary schools. To sum up, in spite of all difficulties, this environment helps students to get some practical experience in using foreign languages and understanding abstract nature concepts; to develop language and research competencies and to remain motivated (and self-motivated) in learning Science and English.
