Mobile phones have become so ubiquitous that they turned into an important part of our life. According to Parsons, mobile subscriptions exceed 6 billion subscriptions globally. Similarly, Ipsos and Verizon (as cited in Tan & El-Bendary) found out that adopting mobile phones with smart technologies has increased fast which also coincided with a more utilization of their Internet capabilities. With the abundance of knowledge the Internet provides, mobile phones become an invaluable pathway for that knowledge. The fact that these gadgets are well-liked by students make them one of the best tools to be adopted by educational institutions. This study will investigate the actual academic use of mobile phones among students and teachers, their attitudes toward using them as learning or teaching tools, and if there is a significant difference in attitudes of the participants toward using mobile as learning or teaching tools based on the job criteria (Student vs. Faculty Member).

The article considers audiovisual technologies (AT) for written speech training in second language acquisition. The aim is to form and to develop written speech competence that includes different skills, abilities and knowledge of grammar and vocabulary, skills in reading, writing, audition. The research provides some ideas of the students’ perception of AT such as the Internet, podcasts, blogs, video conferences, special mobile applications in the education process. The functional features of a video film in the training process and four stages of audiovisual education technology are described. To present the process of training, the pedagogical algorithms based on the structure of the knowledge acquisition process are developed according to the aims of viewing. The stages of AT realization (previewing, presen­tation, after-viewing, and actualization) are considered. An educational interven­tion using AT is developed and we investigate the effectiveness of audiovisual technology as a teaching method and the degree of knowledge acquisition of the language content proposed to students. To estimate the written speech competence level, we used the calculation of knowledge acquisition factor of training material. A significant improvement was observed in the acquired knowledge of written speech training and AT were perceived to be effective in teaching German as a second language. Thus, the Internet teaching resources can contribute to the formation and development of the following competencies for students: foreign communicative competence, including linguistic, sociocultural, educational and cognitive components; communicative-cognitive abilities to search and select, generalize, classify, analyze and synthesize the information received; communicative skills to present and discuss the results of work with Internet resources; the ability to use Internet resources for acquaintance with the cultural and historical heritage of various countries and peoples; the ability to use resources to meet their information and educational interests and needs. Foreign language training based on AT positively influences students’ performance and should play a leading role in the effective communicative competence formation and development.

The aim of the present paper is to attempt to analyze selected factors which influence the learning of a second or foreign language. The goal is also to present the results of preliminary studies based on the observations of Russian language lessons. The introduction of a second foreign language into schools makes teaching multilingual. Students’ native language together with the languages they learn in and outside educational institutions all contribute to establishing a unique linguistic and cultural environment. The process of teaching and learning of a second language should refer to students’ knowledge and skills, which they acquired during their previous learning experiences.

The article analyzes one of the important layers of the lexical system of Ukrainian at the turn of the XXth and XXIst centuries, namely innovative socio-political lexemes and terms. It is shown that despite the attention of Ukrainian and foreign scholars to Ukrainian innovative vocabulary, the study of the mentioned lexical units requires constant and substantial consideration. The relevance of the problem is supported by the fact that the corpus of innovative lexical units that belong to the socio-political sphere is a dynamic subsystem, being constantly enriched and modified, and therefore is not sufficiently studied within the above-mentioned time interval. The aim of the paper is to study the development of new socio-political vocabulary and terminology of the Ukrainian language on the basis of contemporary publicistic (radio programs, TV broadcasts, newspapers, magazines, Internet resources, public speeches) and scientific types of discourse typical of recent decades. To achieve this aim it was necessary to perform the following tasks: 1) to outline the leading factors contributing to the emergence of the analyzed units; 2) to consider the main sources of innovative socio-political vocabulary and terminology; 3) to define thematic groups and subgroups that have been enriched by the analyzed lexical units. As a result of the carried out research, the author defines and characterizes leading extra- and intralingual factors contributing to the emergence of innovative socio-political vocabulary and terminology, which have not been registered yet in Ukrainian largest and most authoritative interpretive and bilingual lexicographic sources. Having collected and scrutinized a considerable number of innovative vocabulary (more than 3000 units), the author clarifies and analyzes the main sources of modern national language enrichment. These sources include the word formation based on specific and foreign language derivations and resources, new borrowings from different languages (with the prevalence of Anglicisms), semantic reconsideration of codified units, as well as the actualization of the units already known in the Ukrainian language. The paper presents the division of these units into thematic groups and subgroups. As a result of the carried out analysis the author comes to conclusions that at the end of the XXth and beginning of the XXIst centuries the socio-political vocabulary and terminology are characterized by a dynamic increase accelerated by a series of extra- and intralinguistic factors, the former being a prevailing factor. The sources of the analyzed units remain traditional. The author has also registered a significant enrichment of thematic groups and subgroups composed of the analyzed subsystems.

The Y generation is understood as that born under the influence of the digital technologies. Now it’s represented by the young university students that created such a tight bond with the internet and its tools that uses them easily and frequently. Many works say that this generation of immediate young people accustomed to multitasking has developed a new kind of neuroplasticity entirely different of their antecessors and therefore possess peculiar habits and mechanisms of learning that should be respected and considered in the dynamics of teaching and learning, creating a pressure in the educational institutions to adequate in this reality. However, there are a few studies evaluating the real existence of these characteristics. Thus, we preset the conclusions of this descriptive qualitative project fulfilled with medicine students at Faculdade de Medicina de São José Rio Preto that aim to know how these students use digital technologies and the impact of their habits and behaviors regarding the involvement with technologies in their studies. The conclusion was that technologies are an important influence on student’s lifes, however continues to be one among several others, which allows the teachers to keep a fundamental role in the formation of these digital natives, especially helping and guiding them in the correct and full use of new technologies developed for learning.

Only A couple of decades ago, few could imagine that one of the most powerful countries in the world – the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) – would collapse, and Russian – the most prestigious and predominant language of the Soviet people – would be overtaken by English, the language once considered ‘the language of Western imperialism’ (Dushku, 1998:372). Today, because of both its unique international role and the fall of the Iron Curtain, English has become the most popular foreign language taught in schools and other educational institutions in former Soviet republics. The present paper will focus on the teaching and learning of English in Uzbekistan – a Soviet republic until 1990. In addition, issues related to foreign-language curriculum innovations, to teacher training, and to teaching resources will be discussed.
