Using the Discord Application to Facilitate EFL Vocabulary Acquisition

Vocabulary knowledge is a prerequisite for mastering any foreign language. It takes a lot of time and effort to develop English as a foreign language (EFL) vocabulary skills. Efficient ways to facilitate this process should be studied and analyzed. The present study aimed to investigate the role of the Discord application in teaching and learning EFL vocabulary. Discord is a free messenger with support for IP telephony and video conferencing, as well as the possibility to create public and private chats for exchanging text and voice messages. The study relied on pre-test and post-test design to get the necessary data of one experimental and one control group, 80 university students altogether. The results of the pre-test showed no significant difference between the two groups. The experimental group was taught with the help of the Discord application, while the control group was dealing with the traditional educational process, that is, 180 min every week in a classroom with a textbook and no electronic educational resources. Results of the t-test indicated that the experimental group significantly outperformed the control group on a researcher-made vocabulary post-test. A post-treatment speaking test was administered—the participants took part in speaking interviews where they were asked to give a short speech on one of the topics studied during the experimental training. The representatives of the experimental group managed to use more vocabulary items per person correctly (pronunciation, lexical combinability, etc.). The findings revealed that the suggested way of using the Discord application may positively influence the acquisition of EFL vocabulary and its further application in speaking. Hence, it is recommended that the Discord application be used as a tool in the EFL vocabulary teaching and learning process to reinforce in-class tasks and activities.

Development of creativity of the "digital generation" students through the organization of creative activities in the creatively oriented educational process of the university

Today, the world around us, including the professional environment, is changing rapidly. Employers are having new requirements for employees. The employee must not only be a good performer, but also have spatial and functional mobility, i.e. be a creative person who is able to adapt and improve in connection with changing circumstances. Therefore, at present, it is necessary to pay great attention to the development of students ' creativity in educational classes at universities. The authors understand creativity as the ability of a person to non-standard creative thinking and behavior, with further awareness and development of their experience. Well-organized training sessions that develop creative abilities, such as business and role-playing games, case studies, project activities, combined with the use of electronic educational resources, contribute to the education of students ' confidence, self-control, teamwork, teach business communication and respect for others, teach them an unconventional approach to traditional habitual phenomena and help them in the initial development of professional activity. The authors note the great role of the teacher in the development of students ' creative abilities, especially if the teacher himself is a creative person. A creative teacher has professional and personal attractiveness in the eyes of students, due to his openness, benevolence and accessibility in communication, especially with the "alienated" communication that is common in the modern educational world. The authors prove on the basis of data from constant surveys and conversations with students and graduates in training classes, during personal meetings, in social messengers (VKontakte, WhatsApp, LinkedIn) and other means of communication that their active participation in business and role-playing games, project competitions, student debates, solving cases helped them in the initial development of professional activity.

Marketing curricula are experiencing a digital disruption as e-books and other electronic educational resources replace print textbooks. This study investigates student perceptions about the effectiveness of print textbooks and e-books. Specifically, we focus on the perceived effectiveness of e-books and the impact on student engagement. A field-based quasi-experiment was conducted with a sample of 259 students in the Fall semester, and a follow-up sample of 395 students in the Spring semester. The results show a diverse impact of e-books on student engagement. Some aspects of engagement are positively affected while other aspects of student engagement exhibit a neutral or negative leaning impact. The findings also reflect significant variation in e-book effectiveness depending on the course. Finally, we find that e-books moderate the relationship between textbook effectiveness and academic performance engagement. Highly effective e-books result in higher levels of academic performance engagement. Collectively these findings shed light on the current situation and provide a foundation for additional research to further our understanding about e-book effectiveness and its relationship to student engagement.
