The article examines the impact of the digitalization process on the creation and use of modern electronic tools and technologies for teaching a foreign language in higher education. The article presents the main electronic tools and technologies that are used in the Financial University during the educational process of teaching a foreign language. The author notes the effectiveness of the implementation of the personality-oriented approach, which is provided by individualization and differentiation of training using the Bank of test tasks created by university teachers, and the electronic educational platform Rosetta Stone Advanced. The use of electronic learning tools and digital technologies allows to develop self-organization of the student. Changing the role of the teacher to the role of the manager of educational activities contributes to the formation of the ability to constant self-studying the student throughout his professional and social life. The effectiveness of the electronic learning tools use is proved by the high level of students’ foreign language competence and their assessment of the foreign language teachers’ pedagogical activity with the results of the survey "Students’ view on teachers".

AbstrakPertumbuhan praktek jurnalistik saat ini menjadi tren tersendiri bagi industri media massa.Media massa telah memberdayakan masyarakat dalam membuat informasi dan sekaligusmenjadikan mereka sebagai produsen berita. Salah satu praktek jurnalistik ini disebut denganistilah jurnalisme warga (citizen journalism). Meskipun jurnalisme warga secara istilahmemang baru dikenal baru-baru ini, akan tetapi secara konsep praktik jurnalisme warga inisudah ada sejak manusia mengenal tulisan dan mengenal media sebagai saluran komunikasimassa. Citizen journalism menjadi penting karena bisa menjadi pelengkap bagi “lubang-lubang” berita yang tidak terendus oleh para wartawan profesional. Semakin terlihat jelas persaingan antara wartawan profesional dengan khalayak pembuat berita (citizen journalism)dalam kedudukannya sebagai insan media. Nyatanya, saat ini semakin banyak perusahaanmedia yang mempekerjakan jurnalis yang berstatus kontributor namun jaminan hidup bagimereka tidak jelas. Perusahaan media kerap memanfaatkan ketidakjelasan status ini, untukmengingkari hak-hak pekerja yang diatur dalam undang-undang ketenagakerjaan, engganmemberikan upah yang layak, enggan memberikan jaminan kesehatan serta tunjangan lainnyayang bisa membuat jurnalis kontributor bekerja lebih profesional. Di sisi lain, honor citizenjournalism di Indonesia justru cukup menggiurkan.Kata kunci: peran kontributor, jurnalisme warga, masyarakat informasiAbstractThe current level of journalism education is becoming a trend for the mass media industry.

Purpose A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect information from clinical audiologists about rehabilitation options for adult patients who report significant auditory difficulties despite having normal or near-normal hearing sensitivity. This work aimed to provide more information about what audiologists are currently doing in the clinic to manage auditory difficulties in this patient population and their views on the efficacy of recommended rehabilitation methods. Method A questionnaire survey containing multiple-choice and open-ended questions was developed and disseminated online. Invitations to participate were delivered via e-mail listservs and through business cards provided at annual audiology conferences. All responses were anonymous at the time of data collection. Results Responses were collected from 209 participants. The majority of participants reported seeing at least one normal-hearing patient per month who reported significant communication difficulties. However, few respondents indicated that their location had specific protocols for the treatment of these patients. Counseling was reported as the most frequent rehabilitation method, but results revealed that audiologists across various work settings are also successfully starting to fit patients with mild-gain hearing aids. Responses indicated that patient compliance with computer-based auditory training methods was regarded as low, with patients generally preferring device-based rehabilitation options. Conclusions Results from this questionnaire survey strongly suggest that audiologists frequently see normal-hearing patients who report auditory difficulties, but that few clinicians are equipped with established protocols for diagnosis and management. While many feel that mild-gain hearing aids provide considerable benefit for these patients, very little research has been conducted to date to support the use of hearing aids or other rehabilitation options for this unique patient population. This study reveals the critical need for additional research to establish evidence-based practice guidelines that will empower clinicians to provide a high level of clinical care and effective rehabilitation strategies to these patients.

This article uses the concepts of ‘transnational social fields’ and ‘habitus’ to explore the multifaceted role families play in shaping the aspirations of onward migrating youth. The article draws on biographical life history interviews conducted with the children of Iranian migrants who were raised in Sweden but moved to London, UK as adults. The findings of the study suggest that from a young age, all the participants were pressured by their parents to perform well academically, and to achieve high level careers. These goals were easier to achieve in London than in Sweden for several reasons. Interestingly, however, participants’ understandings of what constituted success and their motivations for onward migration were nuanced and varied considerably by gender. The study contributes to an understanding of the role of multi-sited transnational social fields in shaping the aspirations of migrant youths, as well as the strategies taken up by these migrants to achieve their goals.
