Variation Part

The article deals with the issues of structuring the variative foreign language training content. Variative foreign language training consists of a basic mandatory part for all students, which implements the requirements of Federal state educational standards at a minimum level and variation part. The variation part, represented by educational variants, is designed to meet the cognitive needs of students and take into account personal characteristics that affect the acquisition of a foreign language at the University. It is shown that the system approach is the basis for structuring the content. Professionally oriented foreign language training in higher education is considered as part of the higher education system, is subject to general goals, is regulated by the standard, program, and includes the levels of higher education: bachelor's, master's, specialty, and postgraduate. Disciplines related to foreign language acquisition are focused on the formation of foreign language communication skills, and also allow forming flexible skills that are necessary by specialists in different areas of professional activity today and are increasingly in the future. It is noted that the system approach regulates the construction of variative training parts in the aggregate, due to their interaction. The core of the system is the basic and variation variants availability. The framework of the system is the educational standards requirements, the educational program data, which sets the terms of the course development, the number of hours for classroom and self-study work, the form of intermediate and final control. The system integrity is manifested in the presence of horizontal and vertical links between the educational process elements. Horizontal links are located in the relationship between the basic and variation parts at each education level. Vertical links are found between the basic and additional parts of all levels on the basis of content and technology continuity. Continuity is understood as taking into account the individual level of educational achievements and reliance on the studied material. The results led to structure the variative foreign language training content in "Animal husbandry", to identify the basic and variation parts for the growth and development of foreign language skills and orientation training to suit individual needs and students’ characteristics.

The article analyzes the problem associated with the quality improvement of professional training of foreign language teachers in the conditions of digitalization of Language Education. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to train competitive specialists in the field of intercultural contacts who are fluent in their profession at the level of international standards. The quality and level of foreign language training in higher education are determined by the teaching staff, who are the carriers of the ideology of updating language education. Today, the digitalization of language education has brought the foreign language training of students to a qualitatively new level, which allows not only to raise the culture of teaching foreign languages, but also to ensure the development and social adaptation of the student, and contributes to the formation of an appropriate environment for social and personal development. The quality improvement of foreign language training in higher education presupposes both the widespread use of digital teaching technologies and the mandatory consideration of the general patterns of the personality formation and individual characteristics of students, as well as the development of each student’s abilities and interests. The formation of creative thinking, flexibility, initiative and versatility, the ability to quickly respond to changes, as well as creative search in solving professional problems are especially relevant in the education and training of foreign language teachers. The article examines significant innovative trends in the system of higher education, which make it possible to train a competitive specialist who becomes the main indicator of the quality of university education.

Methodological Principles

Background: Globalization processes directly affect the system of foreign language training in particular in non-linguistic higher education institutions and determine the need for its modernization. Such modernization requires both the theoretical and methodological substantiation of the strategic goal of foreign language training in Ukraine. We formulate this goal as formation of a polycultural professional linguistic personality, primarily, a secondary professional linguistic personality. Formation of the secondary linguistic personality is accompanied by acculturation i.e a person’s involvement in the secondary culture, its norms and traditions. Since acculturation is generally impossible without polylingualism, so raising the question of polylingualism in Ukrainian universities has become well-timed and expedient in the conditions of globalization and integration and determines the relevance of the article. Purpose. The purpose of the article is to substantiate the feasibility of polylingual education in non-linguis­tic higher education institutions and outline the ways of its implementation. Results. The introduction of polylingualism provides freedom of choice since it enables such an organization of the learning process where the use of more than one foreign language for instruction will becomes possible. It will primarily promote the diversification of professionally oriented foreign language training of students that will result in provision of personalized learning, particularly in the field of foreign language training, as well as freedom to choose languages for mastering, and, therefore, a student’s autonomy, which is relevant to the whole system of our higher education. The introduction of polylingualism also prompts the introduction of a pan-European stan­dardized level of foreign language proficiency, providing future language specialists with a foreign-language com­municative competence recognized in a broad European format. The introduction of polylingual education implies the need for effective innovative methods, compulsory teaching of foreign languages by their native speakers, structural improvement of foreign language training, etc. Though polylingualism has become the matter of re­search in some contemporary studies, however the theoretical foundations and technologies of its teaching have not yet been developed in the domestic and foreign pedagogical literature. Discussion. The introduction of polylingualism into the educational process of non-linguistic higher educa­tional institutions is considered as means that will give the students freedom to choose the language of instruction; will facilitate the diversification of professionally oriented foreign language training; will form polylinguistic com­petence, updating the level approach to language learning and requiring further development of theoretical and methodological principles and relevant innovative techniques.

Quality Of Control

The purpose of the study is to improve the monitoring system of foreign language training of the students specialised in non-linguistic disciplines. The object of the study is foreign language training of students specialised in non-linguistic disciplines. The subject of the study is the content, forms, methods and means of monitoring foreign language training of students specialised in non-linguistic disciplines. The research methodology is based on the consolidation of theoretical methods and pedagogical observation in order to determine the concepts dealing with the features of improving the control of foreign language training of the students specialised in non-linguistic disciplines and the introduction of modern approaches. The leading provisions of the control system are proposed, where foreign language training is allocated from an array of scientific information and practical approaches in teaching a foreign language for the students specialised in non-linguistic disciplines. It has been testified that the implemented author’s system is a compulsory requirement for the further development of the scientific direction of foreign language training of students which is consistent with the fundamental data of the general theory of training specialists within higher education. The types of activities used in the process of monitoring foreign language training of the students specialised in non-linguistic disciplines which reflect the role of the object within the existing training system have been determined. The dominants which are characteristic for these students have been developed. The analysis allows us to make certain conclusions regarding the usage of testing technologies in assessing the quality of foreign language training in a modern institution of higher education, which should be adapted to the specific conditions aimed at guaranteeing the quality of control system of professional education. The technology of assessment provided the integrated conduct of control and evaluation activities based on the usage of traditional forms of control and score-rating innovative technology. The indicated activities and dominants of the system aimed at monitoring the foreign language training of the students specialised in non-linguistic disciplines are objective and structured characteristics, thanks to which it is possible to assess the quality of the acquired knowledge and acquired skills of the designated students, as well as to improve the methodology of teaching foreign language at higher education institutions, the purpose of which is student’s personal and professional growth.
