The Subject

The article highlights the expediency of developing translation skills as a component of student’ translation competence within the framework of the «Foreign Language for Special Purposes» course in non-linguistic higher education institutions. An algorithm for writing translation, which involves certain stages of translation activity such as analysing the original text, creating the translation text, and editing it, is described. It is emphasised that writing translation as the main form of technical translation has cognitive and psychological nature. In this regard, the basic levels of mechanisms of translation activity are general psychological mechanisms, specific mechanisms within the activity and specific mechanisms of translation activity. It is proved that the criteria for determining the quality of written translation specify the presence of students’ translation competencies corresponding to these criteria. The main of them are the substantive equivalence and adequacy of language translation of the text at the lexical, grammatical and syntactic levels as well as technological competence (specific knowledge, mastery of basic translation strategies and techniques), special competence (knowledge of the subject, knowledge of the terminological apparatus of the subject area), compensatory competence (ability to use dictionaries, databases and other sources). The rationality of realization on the correlation basis of simultaneous language teaching and translation training is substantiated.

The article discusses the debatable issues of legal psychology related to its subject. The problem of integration of legal and psychological knowledge as the basis of the subject area of research in legal psychology is studied. The solution of the problem of integration, in the author's opinion, is seen in the comprehension of the differentiation and interdisciplinary synthesis of knowledge about a man, prompting to explore and disclose in the mass of special descriptions of certain psychic phenomena that have developed in different psychological disciplines, that special that can be attributed to the discoveries of legal psychology. It is concluded that the mechanism of integration of legal and psychological knowledge consists in the search for patterns between legal and psychological phenomena. In this regard, it is proposed to consider the subject of legal psychology as the patterns that arise between legal and psychological phenomena, as well as the psychological mechanisms of the formation of new phenomena in the sphere of relations governed by law.

The Impact

This paper reports on a case study that evaluates the validity of assessing students via a computerized peer-marking process, rather than on their production of an essay in a particular subject area. The study assesses the higher-order skills shown by a student in marking and providing consistent feedback on an essay. In order to evaluate the suitability of this method of assessment in judging a student’s ability, their results in performing this peer-marking process are correlated against their results in a number of computerized multiple-choice exercises and also the production of an essay in a cognate area of the subject being undertaken. The results overall show a correlation of the expected results in all three areas of assessment being undertaken, rated by the final grades of the students undertaking the assessment. The results produced by quantifying the quality of the marking and commenting of the students is found to map well to the overall expectations of the results produced for the cohort of students. It is also shown that the higher performing students achieve a greater improvement in their overall marks by performing the marking process than those students of a lower quality. This appears to support previous claims that awarding a ‘mark for marking’ rewards the demonstration of higher order skills of assessment. Finally, note is made of the impact that such an assessment method can have upon eradicating the possibility of plagiarism.DOI: 10.1080/0968776042000259573

The Subject

Three years ago, the Polish Geopolitical Society began an initiative focused on students, PHD candidates and interested academic societies, who wished to co-operate in popularizing the subject area of geopolitics. This initiative sought to serve as a forum for such groups and individuals to compete with other interested colleagues and groups from around the world. During the process, students strive to prove their level of professional knowledge, while their teachers assist them in preparing for their best presentations. All participants then meet during the final stages of the competition in order to exchange their experiences. This, in turn, benefits the development of general approaches and methods of study regarding the discipline of geopolitics. The question addressed in this paper then, is how such international competitions can improve the overall skills and knowledge of the subject area at hand among those participating. The importance of this question is underscored by various initiatives undertaken that attempt to measure the quality of higher education. The research presented in this article, then, is based upon interviews with both participants and organizing committee members, which attempt to gauge the experiences and results achieved during such competitions. The results show both the positive and negative aspects of organizing such gatherings. Most certainly, one could draw the conclusion that such events are the most attractive to the most ambitious of students and teachers, who consider education a privilege and as a process, which continues throughout one’s lifetime. Adversely, for those who place education in the same category as a material good, to be bought and sold, such competitions have little appeal especially when focused upon a narrow field of study.

The paper deals with the properties, quality and durability of the exposed concrete. The main part of this paper are characteristic of architectural (sometimes called visible or naked) concrete and the criterion of the quality evaluation of the performed work. This is mainly the colour balance of the subject area, the quantity and the size of the pores, the quality of the raw material and the surface structure. Achieving the quality of architectural concrete is considerably more technologically demanding compared with conventional concrete. This is reflected also in its cost. In conclusion, the problems of surface layers of architectural concrete are summarized. Especially environments can cause faster degradation, reducing the lifetime of the whole construction, but also pointing to one of the main problems in construction, which is technological discipline.

The Village

In the national educational system, the rural school has traditionally been given a significant role, which is reflected in numerous studies published in different years. The analysis of historical and pedagogical sources revealed the main stages of the origin and development of rural schools in Russia. At the beginning of the XXI century rural ungraded educational organizations have not lost their significance and are widely represented in the educational space of the country. In modern conditions, the activities of educational organizations have a significant impact on the socio-cultural and economic condition of the village, being a key condition for the existence or revival of settlements.Appealing to regulatory documents dated from different periods made it possible to analyze the interpretation of the term “ungraded educational organization” in a historical retrospective. The study of historical and pedagogical sources and modern researches indicates the existence of certain features in the implementation of educational activities in ungraded educational organizations.Inherent organizational and pedagogical characteristics have an impact on the organization of foreign languageteaching. The problem of improving the quality of foreign language education in ungraded educational organizations located in rural areas continues to remain relevant. It requires its comprehensive study and search for more effective and methodically appropriate teaching methods, techniques and technologies, taking into account the existing historical experience. Achievement of the results of studying the subject area “Foreign languages” established in regulatory documents is possible only with teaching staff, having a higher level of subject-methodological training.

The article deals with the problem of professional training specialists in tourism. The relevance of the research is that recently the role of knowledge in the process of training future specialists in the sphere of tourism has changed. In the current socio-economic context, in order to fulfill the order of society for high-level future specialists in the sphere of tourism, graduates of higher educational institutions are forced to possess not only an extensive theoretical base in their specific specialty, but also certain meta-subject knowledge. However, mere knowledge ownership is no longer sufficient in the context of the development of the international labor market. The problem of the need for the formation and development of a new quality of education appears, the updated content of which will be based on key competencies. In this case, the key competence is defined as a mandatory competence, because it corresponds to the conditions of implementation, which are not limited, not too specific, but are universal within certain limits. In this regard, a survey of future tourism experts was conducted on the subject of their perception of the importance of forming competencies. The results of the survey are described in this article.

Competence Framework

The article analyzes and summarizes competences of the IT professions defined by the European Competence Framework and competencies declared by higher IT education standards. The authors carried out a comparative analysis of competencies identified by modern educational IT standards in order to determine the commonalities and differences in the content of IT specialists training in Ukraine with international standards. With the help of cognitive cards, a simulation of the development of professional IT competencies was carried out within the framework of the cognitive modeling methodology. As designations of concepts at the vertices of the cognitive graph, the notions of competences defined in the notation of the European competence framework are taken. Building cognitive cards to manage the competencies of IT professionals and imitation on their basis of managerial influences allow exploring the subject area and developing strategies close to optimal for organizing the learning process in order to improve the quality of training specialists for the IT industry.
