| Summary: | Relevance. The purpose of mastering the subject “Professional English” for graduate students is ability to analyze, edit, create and translate professionally-oriented texts on their own, and to present the results of their scientific and professional activities. At the same time, there are usually no forms of such activities under the guidance of a teacher in the bachelor’s curriculum. Therefore, it is relevant to develop some methods and techniques of forming an informational basis for the self-dependent implementation of such activities.
Purpose. The aim of our work was to develop and test the external informational basis of graduate students’ educational activities in the form of a handbook and, with the help of various types of professionally oriented reading, to transform it into an internal informational basis that will allow them to write an abstract of a scientific article and to make a presentation on the topic of their research on their own, as well as to make a report.
Methods and hypotheses. The handbook was written within the framework of the project method. We assumed that the work on the handbook would increase the level of self-organization of educational activities and the quality of project activities of graduate students.
Results. As expected, the experiment proved our assumption: in the experimental group the percentage of timely completed educational tasks was higher, that indicates better self-organization of students. The grades for foreign-language presentations on the research topic, which are the main product of the project activities of graduate students, were also higher.
Practical implications. The results obtained prove the effectiveness of the handbook, and contribute to the practice of teaching foreign languages at the graduate students. |
