Abstract
During practical study it was offered a new model of the English language education for students, that was tested in current conditions of traditionally common at Azerbaijan national universities. The need to create this model is due to the dissatisfaction of the professional community with the results of such training. This paper consists of two parts. The first part briefly analyzes a number of interacting extralinguistic factors that differently influence the process of learning English by the students in the classrooms, in small training groups, under the guidance of the teacher according to standard methods. The second part of this paper is a description of the foreign language environment model in the single educational atmosphere of a technical university. The task set by the developers of this model is not only to reduce the negative and strengthen the positive influence of the external factors complex, but also to stimulate students for study of English through foreign-language socialization in academic and professionally oriented discourse. The principles of a model organization of the single foreign language atmosphere, a system of uniform control and assessment of English language proficiency are presented in this paper. Preliminary results obtained during the testing of this model were analyzed. The main advantages of the training organization through this model, which allows to increase motivation for students to learn English have been considered during the research.
Highlights
The task of the education system is to achieve a high standard of quality in the content and technologies of higher education in order to form a training level that meets the interests of innovative development in Azerbaijan society
What prevents the achievement of these goals in mass higher education? There is a reasonable doubt about the possibility of quality teaching English to the students of technical specialties in the context of artificial bilingualism, which is common in Azerbaijan educational institutions: foreign language is studied outside the natural language environment under the guidance and supervision of local teachers in specially created educational conditions in small academic groups - small social groups of closed type
The purpose of this study is to identify a complex of extralinguistic factors that have a different impact on the process of learning a foreign language in the educational audience, as well as to evaluate the preliminary results of testing the model of a single foreign language environment and an alternative assessment system at a technical university
