NEW TEACHING METHODS FOR PROFESSIONAL ENGLISH LANGUAGE COURSES TO FOLLOW INTERNATIONALIZATION OF ENGINEERING EDUCATION
The paper discusses new teaching methods for professionally-focused foreign language in the century of engineering education internationalization. The internationalization will be successful if the conditions for international collaboration are provided at all levels of university activity. One of the conditions for developing academic mobility of students and professors is creating multi-lingual environment and improving professionally oriented language programs at university. The authors offer the activity-focused approach for the development of practical skills in professional foreign language competence, based on interdisciplinary connections, collaboration with foreign partners and practical application of theoretical knowledge. This approach is being successfully implemented at the Department of Foreign Languages for Professional Communication of Kazan National Research Technological University. The authors discuss the professionally focused foreign language course for students majoring in different areas of chemical engineering.
