Mental State Assessment in College English Teaching Courses Based on Deep Learning

College English teaching aims at students with different foundations and characteristics. Also, it is necessary to grasp the mental state of students in time during the teaching process. Based on the bimodal information of facial expressions and speech of classroom students, this paper designs a mental state assessment method based on deep learning. For bimodal emotion recognition of facial expressions and speech, a feature fusion method based on sparse canonical correlation analysis (SCCA) is proposed in this paper. First, the emotional features of the facial expression and speech are extracted, respectively. Then, SCCA is used to fuse the emotional features of the two modalities. Finally, the sparse representation-based classification (SRC) is used as the classifier for emotional prediction. Based on the prediction results, the mental state of different students can be grasped, so as to adjust the teaching strategy in a targeted manner. Experiments are carried out based on public datasets. First, the proposed method achieves the average classification accuracy of 92.4%, which is higher than those from the present methods for comparison. Second, under the condition of noise corruption, the proposed method keeps the superior robustness over the comparison methods. The results show that the proposed bimodal emotion recognition method based on SCCA and SRC can achieve higher recognition rates than some present methods.

Developing Oral Communication Skills: A Multi-component, Multi-source and Multi-stage Course Design

We present an innovative, experiential management communication course design that incorporates four sources of communication self-efficacy to develop three components of oral communication (presenting, listening and conversing). Our pedagogical strategy includes a multi-stage skill development with elements of three self-assessments, weekly mini-communication workshops, weekly prepared and impromptu student speeches, one short listening exercise, one interview exercise, one final presentation and immediate instructor and peer feedback. This course design enhances student oral communication in three important ways. First, it provides a non-threatening, experiential learning environment for students to develop oral communication self-efficacy while addressing business topics. Second, it provides students multiple opportunities to simultaneously practice oral communication’s presentation, listening and conversing elements. Finally, our course design maximizes students’ experiential learning with timely and constructive “360 degree” (instructor, peer, and self) feedback both inside and outside of classroom.

CODE-SWITCHING IN THE INTERNATIONAL SCHOOLS OF PRISHTINA: A STUDY OF ALBANIAN/ENGLISH BILINGUALISM

This paper examines the speech of Albanian students who are highly exposed to English. They are educated in international schools at the primary and secondary level, with English as their medium of instruction. However, they reside in an otherwise monolingual society with the majority of the population speaking Albanian. Among other bilingual phenomena, code-switching is examined in terms of whether and how much it occurs in their naturalistic speech. The initial hypothesis expressed at the outset was that code-switching is a prevalent linguistic behavior among Albanian bilingual students observed in informal environments within international schools. Furthermore, while Albanian remains their primary language, English insertions within an Albanian syntactic frame are common. The data gathered from the students through participant systematic observation reveal that the Albanian language is influenced by English. Students are noticed to switch back and forth between English and Albanian. But this varies among different age groups under investigation as proven by quantitative analysis. Furthermore, in terms of structure, Albanian set the morpho-syntactic frame of the mixed clause, while English is the embedded language inserted within an Albanian clause.

The article identifies the features of the organization of correctional work in a special school, taking into account which will improve the effectiveness of the educational process and the development of coherent speech of junior high school students with intellectual disabilities. Communication is a necessary condition for the full mental development of the child, his comfortable living in society. The importance of the problem of the development of coherent speech is explained by the close connection between the process of speech formation and cognitive activity, in particular, the cognitive function of speech. Speech underdevelopment has a negative impact on the overall mental development of the child, which complicates or even makes it impossible for him to communicate with others. Successful work on the development of coherent speech depends on the creation of certain conditions, such as: attention to children's speech, adequate speech environment, the use of coherent monologue, assessment of the child's speech, and so on. Our study of coherent speech of junior pupils with intellectual disabilities involved the following tasks: composing a story based on a plot drawing; composing a coherent sentence from the suggested words; students' ability to maintain dialogue; writing a story on the proposed topic; making a retelling. In the process of studying the state of formation of coherent speech of junior schoolchildren of special schools it was revealed: children with intellectual disabilities have much lower levels of storytelling than their peers with typical development; junior pupils of special schools also significantly impaired the ability to build a coherent sentence from the proposed words, while pupils with typical development, it is much higher; junior pupils with intellectual disabilities have a secondary underdevelopment of speech, and since speech plays an important role in the acquisition of knowledge by children, its impairment should be the subject of psychological and pedagogical correction. We have identified areas for the development of coherent speech of primary school children with intellectual disabilities, namely, the formation of: the meaning of new words; verbal concepts; generalizing meaning of the word; differentiated meaning of words; the meaning of grammatical categories, concepts and forms, the development of coherent speech.

Improving the quality of training of foreign students at preparatory departments is a priority, which requires improving the forms, methods and technologies of teaching foreign students languages and the formation of scientific functional-linguistic style, which is the basis of communication in the professional sphere. The problem of systematic analysis of linguistic and methodological bases of teaching the scientific style of speech of foreign students at the preparatory departments has its own features and difficulties, overcoming which is associated with the search for new methodological approaches and models. The article reveals the linguistic-methodological approaches to the systematic and activity teaching of foreign students the scientific style of speech and the main components of the scientific style of speech as a kind of modern literary language using as an example teaching physics and mathematics in pre-university training. The structure of educational texts which consist of certain functional blocks and act as model for formation of communicatively-motivated kinds of speech activity is offered. The evaluation of educational and scientific texts in physics and mathematics is made in terms of their information indicators (redundancy, density of teaching material, the average index of complexity). Informational evaluation of educational texts of general and natural sciences opens the possibility of developing objective criteria for optimization and minimization of educational and professional material. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is ensured by a number of relevant and effective linguistic and methodological recommendations. The effectiveness of students’ speech activity in a foreign language is determined by addressing the description of the material of the scientific language, its organization in terms of communicative and professional orientation and functional and stylistic expediency. The study of linguistic and methodological bases of teaching foreign students the scientific style of speech in the study of natural sciences allows us to conclude about the effectiveness of combining professional, linguistic and speech aspects of teaching, coordinated work of language teachers and natural sciences in forming the main components of scientific style. The method of formation of basic themes of educational texts is offered, the most important component of which is their accurate structure, sequence and logic of the statement. It is shown that the standardization of syntactic models, structures of scientific style of speech, lexical structure of scientific speech, its syntactic features are of great importance. It is shown that teaching certain types of speech activity on the material of the language of the specialty must be built differently, considering the psychological capabilities of different categories of foreign students.

FORMATION OF SPEECH SKILLS IN ONLINE TEACHING RUSSIAN AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE

From the point of view of the current state of the methodology of teaching a foreign language, mastering a foreign language occurs if the foreign speaker has developed communicative competence, the ability to solve communicative problems by speech means is formed. Even though the presence of linguistic and speech competence is considered as an intermediate link, the success of communication largely depends on the degree of formation of speech skills, their automation, which is developed by playing many situations using the appropriate speech models (Passov, 2010). During a pandemic, sometimes the only possible form of distance learning and the absence of a language environment become conditions that are fundamentally different from the conditions of communication, which further complicates the teacher's task to form the student's speech skills capable of transferring to the situation of real communication. In addition, the factors of repeatability of speech samples, the regularity of their presentation, so necessary for the automation of speech skills, can cause boredom in the student and even the desire to stop learning a new language for him. Thus, in our opinion, in a distant format, it becomes especially important for a teacher to make the process of teaching speech models at the initial stage of language learning as interesting, variable, and effective for memorization as possible. The aim of the study is to describe the most effective approaches to the formation of speech skills among foreign students, considering the disadvantages of online teaching of Russian as a foreign language.

ON OVERCOMING PHONETIC INTERFERENCE IN TEACHING RUSSIAN AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE

The article deals with the issue of interference influence of a mother tongue of students on the results in foreign pronunciation standards acquisition. Violations of language systems as a result of interference actions appear in the speech of students at all levels including phonic. Phonetic mistakes caused by interference create a peculiar foreign accent. They also may slow down skills and abilities building in all spheres of speech activity that could be an obstacle for successful communication. The importance of error prevention and correction is stressed. Such errors are caused by transference of articulatory properties and phonological principles of a mother tongue to learned language. The question of the necessity to continue the development of nationally-oriented methodology and its application at Russian as a foreign language lessons is raised. Communion oriented teaching seems to be the most appropriate while learning phonetic aspect. It lets work out the correct pronunciation of Russian sounds by foreign students enough for maintaining high level communication satisfying communication demands.
