Teaching the University ESP Course with the MOOC Component: Putting Ideas into Practice
Journal of Asia TEFL. 2019. Vol. 16. No. 1. P. 437–447.
This paper studies the results of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) integration into the ESP course curriculum at the Department of Business Informatics of the National Research University Higher School of Economics (HSE). The author investigated whether MOOCs can be effectively integrated into the teaching-learning process and bring significant benefits to students such as developing their linguistic and professional competences. A survey and the results of the experimental teaching revealed that HSE students highly appreciated their experience of online education and would definitely continue to explore the scope of MOOCs in the future. Research findings illustrate that embedding MOOCs into the university ESP course could become the basis for the integrated study of special subjects and the English language in the international learning community under the condition that on-campus courses have been re-designed to incorporate MOOC-like components. MOOCs can be considered as a valuable educational resource for information technology specialists, which can be beneficially used by both students and ESP instructors.

This paper presents the first in-depth corpus-based study of a previously overlooked syntactic variation in Russian: the competition between juxtapositional (Nominative) and possessive-like (Genitive) encoding of the second noun (the term) in specificational constructions (e.g., ponjatie čest’ (notion.NOM honor.NOM) vs. ponjatie česti (notion.NOMhonor.GEN) ‘the notion of honor’). While typological research has established cross-linguistic preferences for one encoding strategy over another, intralinguistic variation ...

Впервые делается попытка рассмотреть особенности фанфикшн как акта продуктивной рецепции, возникшего на основе цикла романов Терри Пратчетта о Плоском мире в России.

Фикрайтеры наиболее часто обращаются к таким форматам, ...
