The Effect of Language Preparation on Communication Skills and Growth of Students' self-Confidence
Original language description
Specialized language and communication is not just a matter of professional lexis and syntactic structures: life, customs and intercultural information are essential pillars of the advanced educational process. Following European trends, students have to be prepared for the alternative they will spend a part of their study at a university abroad: the preparation should be focused on abilities to manage both general and specialized language: therefore communication in the classroom should be as close as possible to real-life communication and teaching strategies should follow this trend. Therefore students at the University of Defence are offered lectures and seminars in mathematics and physics in the English language. Having passed the first semester, students were questioned and a short study investigation was conducted. The conclusions showed that students who selected lectures and seminars in mathematics and physics in the English language achieved remarkably better study results comparing to regular students: in addition more extensive study materials could have been covered due to higher motivation, possible better future career and willingness to study.
