Англійська мова: Методичні вказівки з англійської мови для студентів 3-4 курсів, напрям підготовки 6.140102 «Побутове обслуговування». // Упор. Кузякіна М.Л., Горлатова О.М. – Київ: КНУТД, 2012. – 50 с.
Дані методичні вказівки призначені для аудиторної роботи студентів 3-4 курсів за напрямом підготовки «Побутове обслуговування».
Метою методичних вказівок є формування у студентів загальні та професійно орієнтовані комунікативні мовленнєві компетенції (лінгвістичну, соціолінгвістичну і прагматичну) для забезпечення їхнього ефективного спілкування в академічному та професійному середовищі.
Оскільки студент ОКР бакалавр повинен бути здатним ефективно спілкуватися англійською мовою у професійному середовищі, завдання методичних вказівок підібрані таким чином, що навчати:
обговорювати навчальні та пов’язані зі спеціалізацією питання, для того щоб досягти порозуміння зі співрозмовником;
готувати публічні виступи з низки великої кількості галузевих питань, застосовуючи відповідні засоби вербальної комунікації та адекватні форми ведення дискусій і дебатів;
аналізувати англомовні джерела інформації для отримання даних, що є необхідними для виконання професійних завдань та прийняття професійних рішень;
писати ділові та професійні листи, демонструючи міжкультурне розуміння;
перекладати англомовні професійні тексті на рідну мову.
Отже, методичні вказівки складаються з п’яти модулів, зміст яких надає студентам можливість розвивати мовну компетенцію і стратегії, які їм необхідні для ефективної участі в процесі навчання й у тих ситуаціях професійного спілкування, в яких вони можуть опинитися.
