The article shows the problem of the importance of emotions as one of the soft competencies. The author bases her reflectionson the thesis that an individual understanding of the emotions experienced by oneself and others may influencethe internal (spiritual) integration of a person as well as the sense of acceptance and belonging to the community. Child’s emotions, due to their primarily pre-interpre-tation of reality, also affect other developmental processes such as perception, memory and attention.The author of the article focuses on the importance of the emotional competence of the child expres-sed in a verbal way. She notes that skilfully used rich dictionary of concepts related to emotions can influencethe subsequent proper functioning in community. Also, citing research, the author states that early emotional education influencesthe development of qualities such as sensitivity, ability to empathize and openness to another person. The combination of language education with emotional, moral and social education becomes the starting point for axiolinguistic education.

The article considers the philosophical, theoretical and methodological aspects of socio-cultural factors in the development of students’ communicative and speech competence of humanities and pedagogical college.The purpose of the article is to clarify the principles, approaches and general educational conditions for the formation of socio-cultural competence as part of the communicative-speech, as well as to formulate working definitions of socio-cultural aspects of professional communicative-speech competence.A review and analysis of the views of home and foreign scholars on the essence and content of the socio-cultural component of education in the formation of the above competencies are carried through. The common, different and universal in the structure of the socio-cultural content line of professional linguistic Ukrainian and foreign language education and the place of linguistic, cultural, ethnographic and other knowledge, which are integrative factors of language education, are clarified. The place of the socio-cultural principle of acquiring linguistic education among other principles is determined and the relation between them is established.It is proved that the sociocultural content line in the content of education performs an integrative function of relatively heterogeneous knowledge and can be successfully implemented provided the design, modeling and creation of educational sociocultural space at all didactic levels: from individual lessons to design and architectural design of academic classrooms, campuses, etc.The research uses general scientific methods of analysis, generalization, deduction (in modeling the components of socio-cultural competence and the semantic line of its formation) and interdisciplinary extrapolation of patterns in the system of socio-scientific sciences.The scientific novelty of the work is that for the first time in Ukrainian linguodidactics the multifaceted structure, components, functions and inter-component relations of socio-cultural factors of development of students’ communicative-speech competence of humanities and pedagogical college are defined.The article lays the theoretical and methodological foundations for empirical verification of the optimizing significance of the above factors for students of the humanities and pedagogical college, forecasting, design and implementation of appropriate methodological tools. The research can serve as a starting point for linguodidactic, sociolinguistic and linguocultural studies related to the study of the nature and structure of human verbal communication in today’s uncertain rapidly changing conditions.Key words: socio-linguistic innovations, socio-cultural space, socio-cultural content line, linguistics, prin-ciples and educational conditions. У статті розглянуто філософські, теоретичні та методичні аспекти соціокультурних чинників виро-блення комунікативно-мовленнєвої компетентності у студентів гуманітарно-педагогічного коледжу.Метою статті є з’ясування принципів, підходів та загальних освітніх умов формування соціокуль-турної компетентності як часткової в рамках комунікативно-мовленнєвої, а також формулювання робо-чих визначень соціокультурних аспектів професійної комунікативно-мовленнєві компетентності.Здійснено огляд і проаналізовано погляди вітчизняних та зарубіжних науковців щодо сутності та змістового наповнення соціокультурного компонента освіти в рамках формування вищезазначених компетентностей. З’ясовано спільне, відмінне та універсальне у структурі соціокультурної змістової лінії професійної лінгвістичної україно- та іншомовної освіти, а також місце лінгвокультурних, країнознавчих, етичних та інших знань, що виступають інтегративними чинниками мовної освіти. Визначено місце соціокультурного принципу набуття лінгвістичної освіти серед інших принципів та встановлено відношення між ними.Доведено, що соціокультурна змістова лінія у змісті освіти виконує інтегративну функцію щодо гетерогенних знань і може бути успішно імплементована за умови проєктування, моделювання й створення освітнього соціокультурного простору на всіх дидактичних рівнях: від окремо взятого заняття до дизайнерського та архітектурного оформлення академічних аудиторій, корпусів, студмістечка тощо.У дослідженні використано загальнонаукові методи аналізу, узагальнення, дедукції (під час моделювання складових частин соціокультурної компетентності та змістової лінії її формування), міждисциплінарне екстраполювання закономірностей у системі соціонімічних наук.Наукова новизна роботи полягає в тому, що вперше в українській лінгводидактиці визначено багатоаспектну структуру, складові частини, функції та міжкомпонентні відношення соціокультурних чинників вироблення комунікативно-мовленнєвої компетентності у студентів гуманітарно-педагогічного коледжу.У статті закладено теоретико-методичні основи для емпіричної перевірки оптимізувальної значущості вищезазначених чинників для студентів гуманітарно-педагогічного коледжу, прогнозування, проєктування та імплементації відповідного методичного інструментарію. Дослідження може послугувати відправною точкою для лінгводидактичних, соціолінгвістичних та лінгвокультурологічних досліджень, пов’язаних із вивченням природи й структури людської вербальної комунікації в сучасних невизначених швидко змінюваних умовах.Ключові слова: соціально-мовні інновації, соціокультурний простір, соціокультурна змістова лінія, лінгвокраїнознавство, принципи, освітні умови.

Plantinga’s suggested argument for God from positive epistemic status takes as its starting point that many of our beliefs have positive epistemic status and that such positive status is best thought of as derived from our belief-forming faculties functioning properly in an appropriate environment. Plantinga suggests that this proper function is best understood in terms of a designer having engineered these faculties for particular purposes, the best candidate for this designer being God. A ready objection is that the needed “proper” functioning could be derived from evolution and, so, God is not obviously the best candidate for being the “designer.” This essay evaluates versions of this objection in reference to recent scientific research from cognitive developmental psychology and cognitive science of religion.

Aim: to make the participants realize how they have acted and what has  led  emotionally  to  a  positive  and  a  negative  personal  situation,  and  to  encourage them,  based  on  the  emotional  conducts  reported,  to  perceive  better  what  they  feel. Method: a study with a sociopoetic  approach, conducted with nine advanced transplant coordinators.  We  carried  out  the  aesthetic  experimentation  from  the  generating  theme “T he emotions we feel and the paths we follow” to produce the data. T he data analysis was womanly and philosophical. We used the Emotional Education assumptions of Juan Casassus. Results: we observed greater freedom of expression in terms of emotions in the  non-working  environment.  The  approaches  toward  relatives  and  crying  were common  confrontations  in  both  positive  and  negative  situations.  Discussion:  emotional self-permission  was the  focus,  pointing  to the construction  of emotional  competence  in relation to oneself. C onclusion: the experiment allowed the increase of participants’ emotional awareness in emotionally positive and negative situations, opening the way to self-knowledge.

This paper builds on the work of Abraham Masolow who said that his article was meant to be a starting point for future research into the concept of becoming human. The paper integrates concepts from neuropsychology, neurobiology, and trauma informed services to present a holistic framework within which we can discuss the processes involved in becoming interdependent human beings. Rather than seeing safety as a set of needs within the ddevelopmental framework, the paper presents the concept that safety is the framework, the matrix, within which developmental processes occur.

This article focuses on how the incorporation of autonomy into university students’ learning process improves their English language performance. The participants of this study were 25 students of engineering programs in a public university. Data collection was done through observation, a survey, and a group interview. Two categories that emerged after the data analysis supported the main finding that technology-based activities can be conceived as a starting point for the incorporation of autonomous learning in the English language education at the university.

The main purpose of this study is the design, implementation and evaluation of a professional development program for Greek language teachers in minority education in Albania. The education of the Greek minority in Albania has been a separate part of the whole educational system of the country that has its own features and its own history (Barkas, 2011). Τhe starting point of the present study will be to outline the existing educational situation and to explore the needs of a) the specific teachers and b) the views of the head teachers and c) the professors at the University of Argyrokastro in order to form an overall picture of their training needs, their views and their suggestions for continuing education. The ultimate goal is to present an integrated professional development context for Greek language teachers in the minority education in Albania and we hope that the suggested professional development program for minority education teachers will be an effective one to upgrade their work and, in the long run, to make a decisive contribution to the qualitative upgrading of the Greek language instruction.

The present trend in the comparative study of politics is a departure from the country-by-country approach and a search for analytical models based on dimensions common to all political systems. This trend is in part based on the assumption that the construction of new concepts and conceptual frameworks for comparative politics would provide the starting point for a general empirical theory of political systems. One of the new concepts which has become common currency is “political culture.” Originally proposed by Almond in 1956 and developed by Almond and Verba in The Civic Culture, the concept of political culture refers to patterns of politically relevant orientations of a cognitive, evaluative and expressive sort. It is intended to provide a researchable connecting link between the psychological tendencies of individuals and groups and the structural-functional characteristics of political systems, and to translate such concepts as “historical heritage” or “national character” into sets of cultural components more amenable to measurement and comparison across nations.The study of political culture thus involves comparisons between the orientations of social groups towards specific political objects, between those of particular groups towards different objects, and between patterns of orientations and patterns of behavior. From a methodological viewpoint, all empirical political research is comparative research; we must therefore expect to encounter the problem of the comparability of political data, and in particular, the problem of equivalence of meaning, in all areas of political study. In the comparison of cultural data across nations the requirements of equivalence of meaning are probably more difficult to meet than in any other area. Generally speaking, there are two possible sources of differences in meaning in cross-cultural data: (a) cultural differences of a non-political nature, such as language, education or the degree of frankness or “openness” of personal opinions, and (b) cultural differences of a political nature.

Abstract As with any proposal for a change in pedagogy, the starting point for implementation is teacher education. Suggestions have been put forward for an approach to English language teaching (ELT) which takes into account the lingua franca function language can fulfill. Frameworks for how teachers might adopt a pedagogy of English as a lingua franca (ELF), however, are inconsistent with current policy guidelines for student teacher learning. This concerns most notably those directives provided in the European Portfolio for Student Teachers of Languages (EPOSTL), which is used in a growing number of teacher formation programs. This paper examines the ‘can-do’ statements which the EPOSTL proposes should represent the required methodological competences of language teachers. Using discourse analytic methods, the article explores what the EPOSTL portrays that prospective teachers need to know about language and how to teach it. It is argued that the language education policy represented by the EPOSTL is based on a conceptual perspective that can only impede the development of a genuinely reflective approach to the education of English language teachers and the implementation of an ELF pedagogy.
