The paper presents an application of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) methodology in a structural analysis course taught in English of the third year Architecture bachelor program at Politecnico di Torino (Italy). This experimentation regards a class which is composed mostly of international students, that is, a heterogeneous audience with different background. In general, students struggle with the technical aspects typical of structural analysis course. PBL has been found as a possible solution to this problem in Engineering programs. The aim of redesigning the course is to support students’ learning while evaluating the PBL application in a non-technical context with an international audience. This article describes the structure and the results of the PBL implementation. In particular, the participation has increased compared to the previous academic year in terms of presence during the lectures, interest in the subject, interaction between the lecturer and the students, and exams’ results. These results are encouraging and confirm the validity of the PBL methodology as actually applied.

Введение. Синтаксис селькупского языка долгое время оставался «белым пятном» на лингвистической карте самодийского языкознания. Фонология, морфология и лексический состав селькупских диалектов не раз становились предметом научных изысканий представителей различных научных лингвистических школ. Исследованию синтаксических особенностей селькупского языка посвящено гораздо меньше научных трудов, а большинство из этого небольшого количества базируются на материале северных диалектов, в то время как центральные и южные диалекты селькупского языка долгое время оставались вне поля зрения лингвистов. Данные факторы обусловливают актуальность предпринятого исследования. Материал и методы. Материалом исследования послужили 26 частушек на нарымском диалекте селькупского языка. Основными методами исследования выступили общенаучные (анализ, синтез, обобщение) и частнонаучные (лингвистические) методы: сравнительно-сопоставительный, описательный, метод анализа непосредственно составляющих. Результаты и обсуждение. Представлен краткий обзор исследований синтаксиса различных диалектов селькупского языка, осуществлен структурный анализ текстов частушек нарымских селькупов, проанализирован порядок слов, рассмотрен повтор как один из основных фольклорных приемов. По своей структуре 60,9 % проанализированных предложений представляют собой двусоставные предложения, 39,1 % – односоставные предложения. Самым частотным порядком слов в двусоставных предложениях является SVO (16,66 %), на втором месте SOV (7 %), на третьем OSV (4,7 %), единичны предложения с порядком слов OVS (2,38 %). Самыми частотными повторами, выявленными в ходе исследования, явились концентрирующие повторы. Заключение. Частушка как особый фольклорный жанр, заимствованный у русских, получила широкое распространение среди нарымских селькупов. Данный жанр предполагает наличие рифмы и накладывает отпечаток на структурную и синтаксическую организацию предложения. Повторы выполняют функцию структурной организации частушечного текста, выделяя наиболее значимые компоненты содержания, и в меньшей степени участвуют в его синтаксической организации.Introduction. The syntax of the Selkup language has long remained a “white spot” on the linguistic map of the Samoyed linguistics. Phonology, morphology and vocabulary of Selkup dialects have repeatedly been the subject of scientific researches by representatives of various scientific linguistic schools. Much fewer scientific works are devoted to research of the syntactic features of the Selkup language, and most of this small number are based on material from the Northern dialects, while the Central and Southern dialects of the Selkup language have long remained out of the view of linguists. These factors make the study relevant. Material and methods. The material of the study are 30 four-line racy folk rhymes in the Narym dialect of the Selkup language. The main methods of the research are popular scientific (analysis, synthesis, generalization) and specific scientific (linguistic) methods: comparative, descriptive, method of immediate constituent analysis. Results and discussions. A brief overview of the syntax studies of different dialects of the Selkup language is presented, structural analysis of the texts of the four-line racy folk rhymes of the Narym Selkups is carried out, word order is analyzed, repetition as one of the main folklore techniques is considered. In terms of structure, 60.9 % of the sentences analyzed are two-part sentences, 39.1 % are one-part sentences. The most frequent word order in two-part sentences is SVO (16.66 %), in the second place is SOV (7 %), in the third - OSV (4.7 %); there are very few sentences with word order OVS (2.38 %). The most frequent repetitions revealed in the study are concentrating repetitions. Conclusion. A four-line racy folk rhyme as a special folklore genre borrowed from the Russians became widespread among the Narym Selkups. This genre is expected to have rhyme and influences the structural and syntactic organization of the sentence. Repetitions serve the function of structural organization of the text of a fourline racy folk rhyme, highlighting the most significant content components, and are less involved in its syntactic organization.

AbstractUndergraduate students whose programme includes a full academic year on an Erasmus study visit require a range of support before, during and after their year abroad. This study focuses on the support provided by the home academic coordinator during the students’ period of study abroad. The research is based on a case-study which explores how the maintenance of an online journal can enhance students’ new learning experiences. The outcomes of this investigation are of interest at a pragmatic level to Erasmus coordinators and educational institutions whose programmes include a study visit or an internship. At a theoretical level, this study brings together a number of areas that have each been the subject of prior research but that so far have not been pulled together, particularly in the context of a study visit to a foreign country. The areas referred to include the benefits and challenges of rolling out educational online journals; the use of blogging in language learning; the design of rubrics as a form of feedback and the activity of reflective writing in an online environment. The findings and the discussion show how the online journal has added a positive dimension to the year abroad, particularly in the areas of communication and feedback, peer support, language learning and technology.
