Abstract:
Since 2004, the International Civil Aviation Organization has imposed pilots and air traffic controllers elsewhere in the world to comply with the established language proficiency standards as a safety measure against language and communication problems during flights. Currently, one of the problems that aviation English practitioners face is the lack of training materials on aviation specifications to learn various language aspects. This article discusses peculiarities of technical English used in aerospace. Thus, technical English not only facilitates communication between native and non-native English speakers but reduces the risk of errors and overall risks as well. In this regard, appropriate teaching approaches should be chosen, various tools and forms of teaching English aviation language should be used to form the language competence of future specialists.

Abstract:
Abstract The present paper provides a series of examples of common translation mistakes that are the result of source language interference. The issue of crosslinguistic interference, and its impact upon translation is a useful aspect to consider if one wishes to significantly improve translation results and create texts which stay true to the target language structure. Comparing the grammatical structure of the source and target languages of a text becomes a tool for predicting possible mistakes rooted in source language transfer to the target language of a text. Initially, comparative-contrastive analyses were performed primarily in the field of language teaching and acquisition, but recently the method has started being applied also in the field of Translation Studies. The comparative analysis of specific language structures can thus come in handy for both the study of translation and for translator training.

Abstract:
Duolingo is a free online language learning app. It adapts to the needs of “mobile learning” and allows language learners to take full advantage of “fragmented” time for language learning, using gamification and adaptive learning techniques to teach foreign languages. Once on the start screen of Duolingo, 16 language courses will be presented in English. Learners can control four learning modes and choose their learning styles. Beginners can start from basic courses. If you are not a beginner, take a five-minute placement test to match your placement. In addition to the 16 languages mentioned above, there are 38 language learning combinations (English <> Spanish, English > French, English > German or English > Portuguese, etc.). The system will prompt the user to create a personal profile to save the learning progress, and be able to set the learning, practicing content and learning time. Duolingo is as effective as any leading language learning software. As a language-learning app, Duolingo can be used as a tool for self-study or blended learning context.

Abstract:
Linguistic and cultural needs of non-English Speaking background graduates in science and technology fields are currently not being met due to the lack of specific language and communication programs. This paper discusses the development of an innovative Scientific and Technical English curriculum to be offered in university as well as industrial settings, with the aim of providing language and acculturation bridging programs for the overseas qualified professionals, to satisfy Australia’s educational and industry requirements. It describes the aims, design and outcomes of a modular, socio-cultural, negotiated curriculum, written from a perspective of training in its broad sense with education playing an integral part. The acquisition of communicative skills in English which will enable the learners to access and function in positions commensurate with their overseas qualifications and experience is seen as the ultimate objective of the program.

Abstract:
This paper explores degrees of equivalence constructed in English technical definitions. From an ergative perspective, the degree of equivalence depends upon the effectiveness of the clause (i.e. effective vs middle). Effective clauses tend to be encoding in orientation (i.e. the direction of the coding in the clause is from the gloss to the term) whereas middle clauses tend to be decoding (from term to gloss) (Halliday 1967/8, 1994; Davidse 1992a, 1996). In technical definitions, ideational meaning (expressed in relational clauses) is typically metafunctionally dominant and lexicogrammatically "deautomatized" (Mukarovsky 1977), while interpersonal meanings (expressed in mood and modality) are less dominant and "automatized". In technical definitions, the source of knowledge is either absent but probeable or absent and non-probeable. It is argued here that, despite the general automatization of interpersonal meaning in definitional clauses, a residue of interpersonality is in fact critical to the degree of equivalence constructed in the clause.

Introduction. Studying English is of utmost importance for university students in Ukraine, yet, as a rule, they have just one English lesson per week. Self-study may solve this problem, but devoting their free time to learning English may be challenging for students. Moreover, this class time may be the only opportunity for them to study English [2]. Therefore, it is important to meet the needs of technical university students by focusing on the development of English language skills they consider the most important. The objective of this study was to analyze the perspectives of technical university students on the development of English language skills.

Abstract:
The article highlights the urgent need for a new approach to teaching ESP (English for professional purposes) to Master’s applicants specializing in Physics and Mathematics. Therefore, a comparative analysis of textbooks and methods has been carried out to draw a parallel between traditional and innovative approaches to teaching foreign languages in technical tertiary institutions. The analysis has revealed the insufficiency of comprehensive ESP methodologies particularly in terms of teaching would-be mathematicians and physicists considering the science-students’ mindset. The latter should be primarily taken into account to ensure that the selection and submission of educational materials are tailored to the needs of science modes of thinking, namely, coherent and cohesive presentation of a project and its results and arguments; unified forms of presented achievements; academic command of style; concise and laconic content; universal “schemes” of presenting results. Within this context the role of extracurricular autonomous studies has been reconsidered and re-evaluated as far as language learning skills and competences are concerned. Particularly, benefits and drawbacks of individual work with an academic article have been examined as well as the current online availability of material and the extent of teacher’s involvement. The article stresses the need of transforming the conventional teaching models of technical translation and science-literature reading into a new form of seminar-workshop consultation. Its distinctive features and key principles would include its correlation with physical and mathematical disciplines, the use of specific formulaic expressions. The conclusion advances an idea based on some theoretical evidence of close integration between English and science departments to provide a Master’s applicant with relevant skills and competencies for professional communication in English.

This article investigates the importance of developing communicative competence through language skills in English for Specific Purposes (ESP) offered as a Technical English course in tertiary education. As Technical English courses are predominantly designed to prepare students for the future professional environments in the modern world, competent communication in English is to be mastered. For this reason, the integration of language skills in a Technical English course is imperative in teaching practices with students within a range of technical fields.

Abstract:
This paper reports on patterns of verb choice in identifying relational clauses (e.g. ‘X is Y, Y is X’) in English technical manuals. While it is obvious that specific lexical verbs will feature in identifying clauses of different functions, e.g. mean (defining), call (naming), exemplify (exemplifying), less transparent is the distribution of these more specific verbs and the general or neutral verb be. The findings suggest that verb choice in (technical) identifying clauses is strongly associated with the degree of equivalence constructed between the two central nominal groups in the clause (the Token and Value). Equivalence relations are one-to-one (rather than one-to-many) and exhaustive (rather than semantically open). Major grammatical influences on equivalence include nominal group structure, ergativity of the clause, and the inclusion of features (e.g. interpersonal, logical or textual) that undermine the privileging of an experientially homogeneous world-view. The results challenge the notions that be and specific verbs are interchangeable and that be is an unmarked choice. On the contrary, the data reveal that under certain conditions be is the more marked choice. The results have practical implications for teachers and students of English (in particular, students of English for Academic and/or Specific Purposes) as well as translators.

Abstract:
Rhetoric, as the theory and practice of the discursive means of human influence, and science, as the observational study of the physical world, have traditionally been considered to exist in separate realms. In the past thirty years, however, theoretical convergences in the philosophy of rhetoric and the philosophy of science have yielded a discipline in the rhetoric of science—a discipline concerned with the discursive aspects of knowledge production and reproduction in the sciences. Rhetorical theory has argued convincingly in this century that all language in use is language for use and is therefore, to varying degrees, persuasive. The rhetoric of science begins from the assumption that persuasion is a factor in the construction of scientific knowledge, and from the belief that members of scientific communities (rhetorical communities in every sense) advocate versions of reality which are based in theory, formed in language, and dependent on the agreement of other scientists for their validation. This present project contributes to literature in the applied study of rhetoric of science by analyzing, from a rhetorical perspective, thirty-five scientific articles published in the last six years in major medical journals. (All of the articles are on the subject of primary—or functional—headache.) The project uses a methodology based on classical and contemporary theories of rhetoric to discover persuasive strategies in these scientific texts. It poses questions about how authorial intentions are actualized in scientific texts, how scientific texts have effects on readers, and how the texts affect the situations into which they are introduced. While scientific texts, like literary texts, could be analyzed from a variety of theoretical perspectives, rhetorical theory provides a particularly appropriate heuristic model for analyzing "real world" texts. The rhetorical analysis (which includes both an overview of the complete sample and three case studies) begins by questioning the extent to which the conventions of scientific prose (for example, use of the passive, of nominal iz at ions, of complex sentence structure; use of statistical reasoning and arguments from authority) actually produce a prose that is objective and disinterested in keeping with traditional ideals of science. The analysis shows that medical authors in fact use a variety of persuasive strategies in their articles (strategies which may be classified according to the classical canons of rhetoric), and that the writing in medical journals, is not simply objective and disinterested, although on initial reading, because of its impersonal style, it may appear to be so. The rhetorical analysis demonstrates that the use of textual features promoting an appearance of neutrality is itself a rhetorical strategy which argues for the acceptance of particular claims in scientific articles. The rhetorical analysis is significant for the theory and practice of science, for the discipline of rhetoric of science, and for the discipline of rhetoric itself. The analysis describes the complex rhetoric of scientific writing as a genre, probes the assumptions that underlie its conventions, and argues that scientific texts must be read critically, as rhetoric. To read scientific texts as rhetoric is to locate their arguments, scrutinize their forms, judge their authors, and evaluate their effects. The role of the rhetorician is to urge such reading, and everywhere to promote discussion of the ways of influence exerted especially by texts which appear at first not to be rhetorical.

Abstract:
When people read a text, they rely on a priori knowledge of language, common sense knowledge and knowledge of the domain. Many natural language processing systems implement this human model of language understanding, and therefore are heavily knowledge-dependent. Such systems assume the availability of large amounts of background knowledge coded in advance in a specialized formalism. The problem with such an assumption is that building a knowledge base with sufficient and relevant content is labour-intensive and very costly. And often, the resulting knowledge is either too specific to be used for more than one very narrow domain or too general to allow subtle analyses of texts. In order to avoid the problems of manually encoding background knowledge, many researchers have abandoned symbolic language analysis in favour of statistical methods. The availability of large online corpora and improvements in computing resources have made it possible to make predictions about meaning based on observations of frequencies, contexts, correlation, and other phenomena in a corpus. Systems that use statistical methods have had some impressive successes, notably in part of speech tagging, word class clustering and word sense disambiguation. But these systems often require large amounts of analyzed language data to arrive at even shallow interpretations. Both of these kinds of natural language processing systems seek models of a text---knowledge-intensive systems a deep semantic model, corpus-based systems a much shallower distributional one. And both kinds of system depend on outside sources of data. This dissertation describes the construction and evaluation of an interactive tool that also seeks a model of a text. The model takes the form of semantic relationships between syntactic elements in English sentences. The system also depends on an outside source of data: a cooperative user. Unlike knowledge-intensive and corpus-based systems, however, it does not require a large repository of semantic information and it does not require any previously analyzed data: it can start processing a text from scratch. The system inspects the surface syntax of a sentence to make informed decisions about its possible interpretations. It then suggests these interpretations to the user. As more text is analyzed, the system learns from previous analyses to make better decisions, reducing its reliance on the user. Evaluation confirms that the semi-automatic acquisition of the model of a text is relatively painless for the user. The regular structure of the model identifies concepts that have different surface-syntactic forms. These concepts could be used as the knowledge base for expert systems or query answering systems. They could be used as a conceptual profile of a text, allowing, for example, text indexing on semantic concepts instead of just keywords. The concepts and semantic relationships between them could serve as base structures for text summarization. They could also be used as the domain-specific background knowledge core for natural language processing systems that attempt deeper understanding of a text.

Abstract:
In Midwestern high schools, English language learners (ELLs) who are enrolled in Career and Technical Education (CTE) classes transition from school to the workforce at unacceptably low levels. This loss of opportunity has been linked to CTE instructional practices. The purpose of this study was to explore the instructional practices used by CTE teachers to support ELL instruction and how the teachers perceive those practices to improve ELL transition from school to the workforce. The conceptual framework included Freire's critical consciousness theory, which holds that it is important to include learners in the learning process. The framework grounded the study by linking student-centered teaching research to improved ELL outcomes. This basic qualitative study was conducted in secondary school settings in the urban Midwest. Data were collected from 8 CTE education teachers through semistructured interviews and data analyzed by using open and a priori codes. The codes were placed into categories from which themes emerged. Primary themes indicated that CTE teachers apply certain instructional practices with ELLs and perceive that they help ELLs transition to the workforce. These practices include classroom management techniques, adapting curriculum, instructional consistency, questioning techniques, developing community partnerships, and teaching culturally relevant subject matter. A project, in the form of a policy recommendation paper, was created and may translate to an increased number of high school ELL graduates who are prepared to enter the workforce with the skills necessary to be successful. The findings contribute to positive social change through increased understanding of CTE instructional practices toward ELLs.

Abstract:
For several language pairs, an emerging consensus finds that post-editing of machine translations is faster and less cognitively effortful than from-scratch human translation, resulting in increased translator productivity and decreased translator fatigue. These benefits have yet to be robustly established in some language pairs that are linguistically and culturally remote with very different writing systems. We carry out a systematic Chinese-to-English study using keystroke logger timing measures and eye-tracking measures of cognitive effort, taking into account translator education levels, different source text domains, and quality of the translation product. We observe significant post-editing productivity gains for more highly educated participants and for more straightforward and less technical texts. Measures of cognitive effort show significantly reduced cognitive effort in post-editing.

Abstract:
This paper aims to study the terminology of the wine language in the context of traditional medicine from a translational perspective. The treatment of medical terminology, as well as its translation into Spanish, involves exceptional difficulty due to the level of specialization of this field. In doing so, the professional specialised in medical translation works with a highly specialized language, composed of broad-ranging set of technical terms. Subjected constantly to scientific updating, these terms are conditioned by the influence of other languages, as their long-lived Greco-Latin roots or the current English-speaking influence in health science. Likewise, wine consumption has a deep-rooted relationship with medicine, given its healing properties granted by traditional medicine throughout history and which nowadays also includes scientific medicine. Therefore, using research scientific documents, some aspects of the wine’s lexicon are analysed in this article, with the principal objective of proposing a translation from German to Spanish of the term and its context, rethinking the relevance of its correct treatment.

Abstract:
In today's globalized world, foreign languages, particularly English, have become imperative for engineers. However, traditional language classes, even specialized technical classes, often lack the opportunity for students to practice and acquire the necessary linguistic skills for their professional lives. These skills include the ability to extract information from technical texts, communicate with co-workers of different native languages and varying competencies in the foreign language, and express technical concepts in an understandable way. Changing the approach of technical English classes to a more practical and hands-on method, while also providing tandem language learning tailored to the needs of engineers by pairing students from the same or related academic disciplines, has been shown to significantly improve students' writing and speaking abilities. Additionally, students feel more confident using the foreign language in a work environment.

Full text
Abstract:
The paper aimed to study the readiness of the existing e-learning environment for the organisation of English-language learning among Ukrainian and international students on the example of a technical university in Ukraine. The need for English-language training was explored by interviewing students with keen interest, level of English proficiency, motivation, preferred forms of learning, and a willingness to incur additional costs for such learning. About two-thirds of those surveyed showed interest in English-language education. About one-third of the students surveyed have the necessary level of preparation and are also prepared for additional financial expenses. About one- third of the students may also join English-language studies if they fulfil specific prerequisites. Expected employment progress is the primary motivation for joining the English-language program. The readiness of the existing learning environment was tested by analysing the organisation of access to English- language teaching materials, assessing the demand for different electronic resources, as well as the ability to take into account the learning styles of potential Ukrainian and international students in the educational process.

Abstract:
This guide was created as a response to the needs of the English phonetics and phonology class of the undergraduate Teaching Program of the Faculty of Education at Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, where the English language is approached in a more technical, professional, and theoretical way that implicitly leads to an active and meaningful practice in the classroom with simple exercises but challenging enough for the initial level of the students. The guide gives priority to the vowel sounds of English since they are different from those in the Students’ Spanish linguistic inventory, thus, each of the short and long sounds are explained with clear examples. Finally, the guide comes with a QR code that can be easily scanned from any mobile device to access the audios of the proposed exercises to be studied in class or independently by students.

Center for Equity for English Learners, Loyola Marymount University, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.15365/ceel.seal2020.

Full text
Abstract:
The Sobrato Early Academic Language (SEAL) Model Research and Evaluation Final Report is comprised of three sets of studies that took place between 2015 and 2019 to examine the effectiveness of the SEAL Model in 67 schools within 12 districts across the state of California. Over a decade ago, the Sobrato Family Foundation responded to the enduring opportunity gaps and low academic outcomes for the state’s 1.2 million English Learners by investing in the design of the SEAL Model. The SEAL PreK–Grade 3 Model was created as a whole-school initiative to develop students’ language, literacy, and academic skills. The pilot study revealed promising findings, and the large-scale implementation of SEAL was launched in 2013. This report addresses a set of research questions and corresponding studies focused on: 1) the perceptions of school and district-level leaders regarding district and school site implementation of the SEAL Model, 2) teachers’ development and practices, and 3) student outcomes. The report is organized in five sections, within which are twelve research briefs that address the three areas of study. Technical appendices are included in each major section. A developmental evaluation process with mixed methods research design was used to answer the research questions. Key findings indicate that the implementation of the SEAL Model has taken root in many schools and districts where there is evidence of systemic efforts or instructional improvement for the English Learners they serve. In regards to teachers’ development and practices, there were statistically significant increases in the use of research-based practices for English Learners. Teachers indicated a greater sense of efficacy in addressing the needs of this population and believe the model has had a positive impact on their knowledge and skills to support the language and literacy development of PreK- Grade 3 English Learners. Student outcome data reveal that despite SEAL schools averaging higher rates of poverty compared to the statewide rate, SEAL English Learners in grades 2–4 performed comparably or better than California English Learners in developing their English proficiency; additional findings show that an overwhelming majority of SEAL students are rapidly progressing towards proficiency thus preventing them from becoming long-term English Learners. English Learners in bilingual programs advanced in their development of Spanish, while other English Learners suffered from language loss in Spanish. The final section of the report provides considerations and implications for further SEAL replication, sustainability, additional research and policy.

Full text
Abstract:
The multiple schema for the classification of soils rely on differing criteria but the major soil science systems, including the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the international harmonized World Reference Base for Soil Resources soil classification systems, are primarily based on inferred pedogenesis. Largely these classifications are compiled from individual observations of soil characteristics within soil profiles, and the vast majority of this pedologic information is contained in nonquantitative text descriptions. We present initial text mining analyses of parsed text in the digitally available USDA soil taxonomy documentation and the Soil Survey Geographic database. Previous research has shown that latent information structure can be extracted from scientific literature using Natural Language Processing techniques, and we show that this latent information can be used to expedite query performance by using syntactic elements and part-of-speech tags as indices. Technical vocabulary often poses a text mining challenge due to the rarity of its diction in the broader context. We introduce an extension to the common English vocabulary that allows for nearly-complete indexing of USDA Soil Series Descriptions.
