The present paper addresses the issue of teaching foreign language as an indispensable course at university. One of the demands to the training of future engineers is to prepare them for solving professional tasks and situations. A continuous case study method is one of the forms of problem-based learning which allows teachers to model fragments of future professional activity, its multicultural context. We suggest a continuous case study method as a powerful tool for modelling real professional activities, which contributes to the formation of professionally oriented English-language competence of future engineers. In our article, we aim to reveal the essence and stages of using the method of continuous case studies at English classes. We outlined the following methods: analysis, synthesis, generalization, systematization, inference, observation. In order to verify our statement, we conducted a continuous case study on the topic “Refutation of inaccurate information on technical operation and repair of lifting mechanisms at the enterprise”. As shown by the results of our research, a continuous case study method is a way of development of a professionally oriented English-language competence of the future engineers by involving them in solving imaginary professionally oriented problems through simulated engineering environment. It has been found that the use of a continuous case study method in the course “Practical Course of Foreign Language for Professional (Scientific) Purposes” contributes to the improvement of the future engineers’ professionally oriented foreign-language competencies in listening, speaking, reading; professionally oriented sociocultural, linguistic, educational, strategic and pragmatic competencies.

The development of the pharmaceutical industry is one of the priority tasks of our state, aimed at providing the population of the Russian Federation with modern safe and effective medicines. The solution to this problem is impossible without the formation of a highly qualified personnel potential that meets the demand and expectations of the pharmaceutical market and society as a whole. In this regard, in the system of training of pharmacists in recent years, quite dynamic and flexible transformations have been taking place, dictated by the urgent needs of domestic health care. It should be noted that in the process of implementing this educational standard, the competency-based approach to organizing the process of training modern pharmacists comes to the fore. One of the effective tools for the formation of professional competencies in various educational fields is the case study method. Case study is a training method based on the analysis of real situations from various areas of professional activity and contributing to the development of specialist competency. The competency-based orientation of the case study method is in line with modern ideas about the organization of the educational process for the training of pharmacists. The case study method is actively used in the process of teaching disciplines of the curriculum of the Federal State Budget Educational Establishment of Higher Education KubGMU of the Ministry of Health of Russia, specialty 33.05.01 Pharmacy. Examples of case study tasks as educational technology are presented in the work programs of the curriculum disciplines of the specialty 33.05.01 Pharmacy developed at the Department of Pharmacy. Depending on the content of the taught discipline, these tasks simulate a particular situation from the professional activities of pharmacists, offered to students for a comprehensive analysis and evaluation. The use of this educational technology contributes to the integration of knowledge, skills acquired in the learning process and their competency-based profiling in accordance with the current level of development of domestic health care.

Content and language integrated learning (CLIL) of foreign language and profile disciplines is currently one of the innovative approaches to teaching foreign language for professional communication to students of non-linguistic universities. However, this approach is not widely used in universities of the Russian Federation. One of the main problems of this lies in the objec-tive difficulties of a foreign language teacher to develop the content of teaching foreign language for professional communication so that it reflects the features of the future professional activity of graduates of the main professional educational programs. We see the solution of the existing problem in the selection of the subject content based on the principle of reliance actualization of interdisciplinary connection and intraprofile specialization of students. In the this work, we a) analyze three approaches to teaching foreign language to students of non-linguistic universities (English for specific purposes – ESP; English as a medium of instruction – EMI; content and language integrated learning of foreign language and subject area); b) consider studies on the selection of the subject content of teaching foreign language to students of “Jurisprudence”, “Gardening”, “Agricultural chemistry and soil science”, “Musical and Instrumental art”, “Vocal art” and “Art of folk singing” programmes; c) develop the content of teaching foreign language for professional communication to students of an agricultural university in the 35.03.07 – “Technology of production and processing of agricultural products” programme in three teaching profiles: “Expertise of quality and safety of agricultural products”, “Technology of production and processing of crop products” and “Technology of production and processing of livestock products”.

We examine the main trends in foreign language teaching for professional communication in high school students of the “Jurisprudence” programme, the impact of studying on the formation of general cultural and professional competences, as well as differentiation on various training profiles and their influence on the future professional activity. Allocation of training profiles for law students are conditioned both by the capabilities of a particular higher education institution and by the needs of the region for specialists with fundamental knowledge in certain areas of law. In most universities of the Russian Federation within the framework of the “Jurisprudence” programme, three training profiles are distinguished: state law, criminal law, and civil law. Within the framework of the model of integrated subject-language learning of a foreign language for professional communication, the subject content of training should be correlated with the future professional activity of students and the profile of training. The analysis of the main modern vocational education programs (OPOP) in the “Jurisprudence” programme of most universities in the country indicates that the subject content of foreign language teaching is invariant for all training profiles and does not reflect the specifics of the future professional activity of graduates. We describe the specifics of training for each profile in the framework of the “Jurisprudence” programme and highlight the subject content of English teaching to students of state law, civil law, and criminal law training profiles.

Content and language Integrated learning is one of the modern approaches to teaching a foreign language for professional communication to students of non-linguistic specialties. The im-plementation of the approach implies taking into account the specifics of each specific profile of training within the training direction when selecting the subject content of teaching a foreign lan-guage, as well as when choosing a system of exercises and assignments aimed at creating aspects of students' foreign-language professional communicative competence. The development of an appropriate teaching methodology will depend on the consideration of a number of psychological and pedagogical conditions, which are understood as a complex of interconnected possibilities of the educational environment aimed at quantitative or qualitative changes in personality characteristics. In the framework of this study, teaching foreign students professional communication in the “Technology for the production and processing of agricultural products” programme on the basis of an integrated content-language training model will be effective when taking into account the following psychological and pedagogical conditions: 1) motivation of students to study foreign language professional communication on the basis of an integrated content-learning model; 2) students have a foreign language level of B1 and above; 3) the competence of a foreign language teacher in a profile specialty; 4) taking into account the specifics of the learning profile when selecting the subject matter of teaching a foreign language for professional communication; 5) taking into account the specifics of professional activity in the development of a complex of educational communicative tasks. In this work, we substantiate and describe each of the conditions in detail.

Abstract: The Borobudur area has grown into a world-class tourist destination. With the existence of Borobudur, Mendut, and Pawon temples, the area was appointed as National Strategic Tourism Area (NSTA). The condition influences the villages surrounding it. Borobudur village, Wanurejo, and Candirejo have developed into alternative tourist villages. During their development, these villages have undergone several transformation stages, which are interesting for further observation. In this background, the study aims to identify the transformation stages of the tourist villages in the Borobudur area, from the beginning as a people settlement to become tourist villages, and what causes the development of these stages. This study used a multiple-case study method with diachronic time series analysis, with three village units of analysis: Borobudur, Candirejo, and Wanurejo. Therefore, it will produce the stages of the village's transformation, especially, those related to tourism activities in the Borobudur area. It is expected that the results of this research will provide tourism development guidelines at each stage of the transformation of tourism villages so that they can be the basic for proper tourism planning for the government in rural tourism, especially in the development of tourism villages in NSTA. In addition, it can also be the basic of a scientific approach in researching the development of tourist areas, especially tourism village.
