Review Of Factors Affecting English Speaking Skills Among Foreign English Learners

Speaking skills, for effective communication, are widely recognized as a formidable challenge for language learners (EFL). In Pakistan, at the university level, these learners face numerous hurdles which hinder the progress of their speaking abilities. The present study is based on a review of articles. The objective was to categorize and pinpoint problematic aspects and linguistic barriers encountered by university students, with a particular focus on applied linguistics students in Pakistan. The scrutinized papers delved into the details of speaking difficulties and weaknesses experienced by university-level learners, primarily those immersed in the realm of applied linguistics. In the previous studies, EFL learners, grapple with challenges spanning linguistic factors, psycholinguistic factors and sociolinguistic factors. Furthermore, problems based on education, such as designed-based courses and the inadequacy of proficiency of teachers, compound predicaments faced by these learners. The key findings from this study serve as a useful path towards resolving the difficulties and issues related to speaking skills.

ДИАЛЕКТНЫЕ СЛОВАРИ КАК БАЗА ДЛЯ РАСШИРЕНИЯ И УГЛУБЛЕНИЯ ЗНАНИЙ СТУДЕНТОВ-ФИЛОЛОГОВ О ТРАДИЦИОННОЙ ДУХОВНОЙ И МАТЕРИАЛЬНОЙ КУЛЬТУРЕ

The article is devoted to the formation of theoretical linguistic knowledge and practical skills among philology students based on the use of regional material. The possibilities of improving the quality of language and cultural training by studying the vocabulary offolk dialects presented in dialect dictionaries of the Orel region are shown. On the example of the analysis of the microstructure of dictionary entries, informative value of different blocks of regional dictionaries is revealed.

SYNTAX IN TEACHING THE UKRAINIAN LANGUAGE AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE: TOWARDS THE PROBLEM OF WRITING THE COURSE CONTENT

The article analyzes the problem of writing the content for the course on the methodology of teaching the syntax of the Ukrainian language as a foreign language for philology students. The course is an essential element in the respective educational program for training future teachers of Ukrainian as a foreign language. The theoretical framework of the research is based on linguists’ works dedicated to syntactic topics. However, the basic language competencies in syntax, which are presented in «Standardized requirements: levels of proficiency in Ukrainian as a foreign language», are core for this course. The article also substantiates the need to expand on and detail some topics, taking into account the goals of student learning and practical challenges (word order in a sentence, stylistic means of syntax, syntactic synonymy, etc.). One of the frequent causes of errors in syntactic structures, already at the initial stages, is the imposition of the grammatical system of the native language, or the intermediary language, on the Ukrainian language. Cross-language analogies will facilitate learning and help avoid mistakes. Syntactic structures are not viewed as learning objectives, but rather serve as resources and models that can be used to express a certain meaning. The training aims to develop the ability to use these communicative constructions. At a high level, it is recommended to intensify and diversify the repertoire of syntactic structures with which a foreigner can express their thoughts and emotions, to provide alternative grammatical forms to express the same meaning. The communicative and functional syntax is considered a priority in the methodology of teaching the syntax of the Ukrainian language as a foreign language, since the ability and skills to verbalize thoughts are formed in the process of active use of constructions. Dialogue-centric and text-centric approaches are also efficient at various stages of learning. In teaching the syntax of the UFL (Ukrainian as a foreign language), we suggest combining different levels of analysis of syntactic units: formal-and-grammatical, semantic-and-syntactic, as well as communicative. As the analysis demonstrates, they are not opposed, but mutually complement each other. The perspective of this study is the development of a system of communicative exercises that will help students improve and enrich their speech. Key words: syntax, syntactic unit, method of teaching syntax, Ukrainian language as a foreign language, content language competence.

АВТЕНТИЧНИЙ ПОЕТИЧНИЙ ТЕКСТ ЯК ОБ’ЄКТ КУЛЬТУРИ ТА ІНШОМОВНОЇ ЛІНГВОДИДАКТИКИ

Authentic poetic text as an object of foreign linguistic didactics is investigated in the article. Formation of linguo-socio-cultural competence as a constituent part of communicative competence of a philology student from the point of view of culture text study is analyzed. Attention is focused on the fact that “informative condensation” and “hyper-semanticism” as well as conceptuality, emotionality, imagery, rhythm and euphony cause inexhaustible esthetic, cognitive, communicative, personally-valuable, mnemonic, educational and training opportunities of authentic poetic text. The main object of poetry – depiction of a person; his inner world, his thoughts about the surrounding world and life in it, his attitude to other people, the nature and society; emotions, feelings and unrest of human’s soul. Depicting events and phenomena of everyday life of a person, raising his psychological, ethical, esthetical, ideological, philosophical, spiritual and other issues, expressing attitude to them of a poet as a thinker and humanist, poetry in such a way, firstly, demonstrates solution of these issues, and secondly, performs its cognitive-informational function. Is serves to enrich socio-cultural experience of a person, his spiritual, moral and intellectual improvement. Communicative, axiological, cognitive, informational, culture-bearing, meaningful functions of poetic text are characterized. Efficiency of application of foreign literature and poetry masterpieces while forming foreign communicative competence in philology students at the advanced level of study is proved.

Moral and aesthetic assessments of modern literature as markers of the cultural code of philology students

Introduction. The problem of studying the cultural code in the context of social pedagogy is an urgent task of modern science, since in a rapidly changing world, young people inevitably face ideological issues. The aim of the article is to present the results of a study of the assessments by philology students of the moral and aesthetic aspects of modern literature as markers of the cultural code. Materials and methods. The tools for socio-pedagogical research were 13 books – winners of national literary awards from 2000 to 2020, presented on the LitRes platform [https://www.litres.ru/], reviews of which contain elements of the cultural code and cause the deepest reaction of readers. The appeal to the evaluation of fiction is conditioned by the concept of art as a translator of universal and national values that form the basis of the cultural code. The methods of informal questionnaires and focus groups, the method of qualitative analysis of readers' comments were used. Results. The authors summarized the results of a theoretical and experimental study of students' attitudes to modern literature, which are ambiguous. On the one hand, the aesthetic competence of students of philology is manifested, expressed in the understanding of the presence in the work not only of an external, "factual", but also of a deep layer. On the other hand, only 20% of the subjects identify themselves with the heroes of modern literature, and 80% strongly separate themselves from its characters. 49% saw in what they read such values as historical memory, attention to people, life, love, respect, understanding and acceptance of others, intelligence, etc., primarily in reprints of books by Soviet-era writers: Daniil Granin, Valentin Rasputin, as well as in books by Guzel Yakhina and Alexander Chudakov. 51% categorically deny the presence of uplifting content in books from the list. 60% of the subjects believe that these books can only be recommended to older people, 10% would not recommend some books to anyone. Conclusion. On an experimental basis, conclusions are formulated about the dynamics of the cultural code, which the authors see in the rejection of national values in favor of universal values. Understanding the moral and aesthetic assessments of the younger generation as elements of the cultural code will help to create educational programs considering its current state and dynamics.

From the experience of using media texts in RFL classes in a group of 4th-year philology students of Shenzhen MSU-BIT University

Recently, the concept of a language environment has acquired particular importance in the methodology and practice of teaching RFL, the key component of which is a textbook accompanied by culturological materials, including media texts, understood as "dynamic complex units of the highest level through which speech communication is carried out in the field of mass communications" (N. A. Kuzmina). Being the main unit of the media stream division, it unites various types of media products. Taking into account the current stage of technology development, the use of media texts at the B2-C1 language proficiency levels, characterized by broad communicative competence, understanding of the nuances of intercultural communication, seems appropriate and desirable. Although some authentic Internet texts require the formation of communicative competence in foreign recipient students close to the capabilities of native speakers, they are necessary for solving certain methodological tasks. In this regard, the work with an authentic post on the topic of intelligence from the site "Pikabu" in a group of 4th-year philology students of the Shenzhen MSU-BIT University preceded the discussion of the topic based on the material of reviews of the book by D. S. Likhachev "Letters about good and beautiful". The chosen media text allowed students to analyze, interpret the statement, and evaluate it. The discussion of the semantic side of the text activated their critical thinking, the development of communicative abilities. The discussion of the language side made it possible to attract the attention of students to its stylistic and genre features. The motivation of students while discussing the topic on the material of the post increased, so the subsequent study of the text of Likhachev's letter took place in an atmosphere of interest. Thus, the work with authentic material that is minimal in volume, but as representative as possible for the modern Russian media space, has proved its motivating and cognitive value. The use of media products of the considered type in Russian language classes at an advanced stage is a way to increase the motivation of students while discussing complex socio-cultural and linguistic problems.

The Effect of Android Application on EFL Students’ Mastery of Research Method for Applied Linguistics Course

Covid-19 pandemic has forced online classes to be conducted mostly without proper introduction and preparation. This shift also made teachers and students gradually accustomed to independent learning. Several mobile applications have been developed for foreign language learning. However, only few Android applications were developed for non-linguistic courses offered by foreign language departments at the university level. The effectiveness of such an application to improve students’ learning in universities, therefore, has not been conducted. This article reports the finding of a quasi-experimental research on the effect of using an Android application tailored for Research Method for Applied Linguistics students at an English department on their mastery of the course. The research data were collected through tests and a documentary study and calculated using ANCOVA statistical calculation. With the course mastery as the dependent variable, the use of Android application as the independent variable, and reading skills as covariates, the research revealed that the use of Android Learning Application significantly improves the EFL students’ mastery of Research Methods for Applied Linguistics course. Further researchers are suggested to study the effect of the use of Android learning application on EFL students’ mastery of a non-language course with significantly different students’ levels of reading skills.

Реализация принципов визуализации образовательного контента при смешанном обучении иностранным языкам студентов-лингвистов

The research aims to determine the basic principles of visualisation, which can be used as a tool for optimising the educational process through the development of new-generation didactic materials in the blended teaching of foreign languages to students of linguistics. The paper discusses the notions of “blended teaching/learning” and “visualisation principle” and also describes the practical experience of the bilateral use of digital tools for the visual presentation of didactic materials. The scientific novelty of the work lies in determining the principles of didactic materials visualisation in the process of teaching foreign languages to students of linguistics at university. As a result, it has been found that the use of the principles of educational content visualisation when learning a foreign language stimulates the manifestation of creativity in students of linguistics, increases their motivation and can be recommended in the further practice of blended teaching.

The use of anthroponyms in the «Foundations of the Academic Style of Speech» course when teaching Russian as a foreign language to philology students

The article is devoted to the study by foreign students of the philological profile of the „Fundamentals of the academic style of speech” course which is difficult to imagine without the use of anthroponyms. At the same time, anthroponyms act both as an object of study and as didactic teaching material. The author shows how, when mastering the academic style of speech, one can make the most of the names of philologists. The assimilation of personal names found in texts in the language of the specialty, the performance of language and speech tasks aimed at enhancing the use of anthroponymic units in the field of academic communication, contributes to the faster entry of foreign philology students into the academic language environment, improving their professional competence. The course „Fundamentals of the academic style of speech” for foreign students of philology is not only a means of communication, but also a tool for the formation of professional competence that helps them gain knowledge in the chosen profile and acquire the desired specialty

THE PRINCIPLE OF SUCCESSION IN TEACHING ENGLISH LANGUAGE TO STUDENTS OF HIGHER SCHOOLS

The article deals with the principle of succession in teaching English language to students of higher schools. The work highlights the importance of this principle in scaffolding students' learning and building a strong foundation of language skills. It also emphasizes the need for careful selection of appropriate teaching materials that are aligned with students' proficiency levels and learning objectives. Scaffolding techniques are discussed as essential for providing students with the necessary support and guidance to understand complex language structures and concepts. Assessment and feedback are also identified as playing a crucial role in tracking students' learning progress and providing constructive feedback to help them improve their language skills. Finally, the research suggests that the principle of succession is not only important for teaching English language to philological students but also for promoting learner autonomy and independence. Overall, the work aims to contribute to the existing body of knowledge on language teaching and learning and to inform language educators and policymakers on the best practices for teaching English language to students of philological specialties. The article also discusses the challenges and limitations associated with implementing the principle of succession in different educational contexts, such as teacher training, classroom management, and curriculum design. It highlights the importance of providing adequate training and professional development opportunities for language educators to help them effectively implement the principle of succession in their teaching practices. The study emphasizes the need for a studentcentered approach that takes into account students' individual needs, preferences, and cultural backgrounds. The article concludes by suggesting several prospects for further research in this area, including investigating the effectiveness of different scaffolding techniques, exploring the impact of the principle of succession on students' motivation and engagement, and examining the role of assessment and feedback in implementing this principle.

O frazeologii i pragmatemach z perspektywy dydaktyki i translacji

The topic of the article is phraseology analyzed from the perspective of didactics and translation. The author presents phraseology as a subject of research and shows its development over time. In the mid-twentieth century, the scope of phraseology mainly encompassed traditional, well-established expressions, such as pictorial phraseologisms, idioms or proverbs. At present, the concept of phraseology has grown significantly, and the research of phraseologists often focuses on structures not typical of traditional phraseology, such as, for example, collocations, multi-word specialist terminology, or reproducible conversational formulas, also known as pragmatemes. In the second part of the text, the author describes the research. Its aim was to find out to what extent philology students are familiar with frequently used pragmatemes. The study was conducted among students of Romance philology at the University of Silesia and covered 50 people. The study used 15 pragmatemes that are often used in modern French communication. The author presents a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the research. It also presents synthetic conclusions that are important in the context of didactics and translation.

Augmented reality games in linguistic education: model of cultural concepts in the linguistic worldview of philology students

CHILDREN'S STORY B. SOKPAKBAYEV "MY NAME IS KOJA": FROM BOOK TO REMAKE

The work of Berdibek Sokpakbaev, a classic of Kazakh children's literature, often became the object of journalistic works, literary research and dissertation research. However, the fate of the book itself, which was continued in fiction, cinema, remakes, remained unexplored, which predetermined the relevance of this work. The purpose of this article is to describe the transformation of the well-known school story “My name is Kozha” by B. Sokpakbaev, which has gone from the text of the story to film texts (“My name is Kozha” by A. Karsakbaev (1964), “Menin de atym Kozha” by Yerkin Rakishev (2009) ) and the “boomerang” of the story “Angel” by Nurlan Sanzhar, who played the main role of Karsakbaev’s film masterpiece, which returned back to literature. Thus, B. Sokpakbaev's children's book has gone through an interesting path - from a story to a film adaptation, from a film adaptation to a film remake, from a remake back to a story. These transformations of the children's book "My name is Kozha" will be discussed in this article. The results of the study can be used in the course of teaching the disciplines "Kazakh children's literature", "History of Kazakh literature of the twentieth century", as well as philology students specializing in the field of literary criticism.

Pragmatic Awareness of Speech Acts, Politeness, and Grice Maxims of Iraqi EFL Postgraduate Students

This study examines postgraduate students’ awareness of pragmatic aspects, including Grice Maxims, Politeness, and Direct and Indirect forms of speech. According to Paul Grice’s theory of implicature, which is considered one of the most important contributions to pragmatics, this paper discusses how postgraduate students can meet the cooperative principle when communicating effectively. It also outlines how does politeness principles influence obeying or violating the maxims and how is the use of direct or indirect forms of utterances prompted by politeness. Sixteen master’s students of Linguistics and Literature were asked to take a multiple-choice test. The test will be represented along with the interpretation of each option given in each item. The initial point that the study investigates if belonging to two different groups (Linguistics and Literature) will result in various performances; this will be supplied with a clear-cut answer in the practical part. The theoretical part summarizes a literature review of the discoursal aspects understudy. In addition to clarifying maxims of quality, quantity, relation, and manner, the theoretical part discusses direct and indirect speech and how indirect speech is used to communicate perlocutionary effects. The conclusion will summarize the whole study by drawing upon the theoretical and practical parts simultaneously and providing further reasons for the variability and choice of one option over another.
