Now I Know My Aбв’S: A Comparison Of Inductive And Deductive Methods Of Teaching On The Acquisition Of The Cyrillic Alphabet, Jennifer Bown, Thomas Bown, Courtenay Christiansen, Shalise Dudley, Shea Gibbons, Janine Green
Russian Language Journal
The study was designed to compare the effects of inductive verse deductive teaching methods on acquisition of the Russian alphabet. Inductive instruction refers to methods in which learners are first exposed to examples and then asked to extrapolate a rule from the example, whereas deductive instruction refers to methods in which learners are presented with a rule from the start. Eighty participants were randomly divided into two instructional groups, one receiving deductive instruction and the other receiving inductive instruction. Participants were given a pretest on Russian words and given instruction on the Cyrillic alphabet based on an inductive or a …

Implementing Task-Based Teaching From The Ground Up: Considerations For Lesson Planning And Classroom Practice, William Comer
Implementing Task-Based Teaching From The Ground Up: Considerations For Lesson Planning And Classroom Practice, William Comer
Russian Language Journal
In the past twenty years, Task-based Language Teaching (TBLT) has become a widely discussed approach to teaching foreign and second languages, and a significant body of literature has grown up around it. The approach has even been implemented on a large scale in some areas; for example, since 1990, instruction in Dutch as a second language in the Flemish areas of Belgium has been organized solely around the principles of TBLT (Van den Branden 2006, 13).
A Critical Examination Of Love, Marriage, And Society In Late 19th Century Aristocratic Russia As Seen Through Works Of Tolstoy And Chekov, Bridget Lynn Gongol
A Critical Examination Of Love, Marriage, And Society In Late 19th Century Aristocratic Russia As Seen Through Works Of Tolstoy And Chekov, Bridget Lynn Gongol
Honors Program Theses
Literature is a valuable resource for understanding the ideas, values, and social concepts of a given time period and culture. 19th Century Russian literature has some particularly pertinent works that quite clearly reflect societal views of love and marriage at the time and show the dynamic relationship between literature and social sentiment. By looking at the historical context of these works and analyzing the works within the historical context, we can better comprehend the social values of the time period. Further, through a chronological analysis of the texts, it is possible to see the progression of thought and view the …
From Meaning To Form: An Alternative Model Of Functional Syntax, Arto Mustajoki
From Meaning To Form: An Alternative Model Of Functional Syntax, Arto Mustajoki
Russian Language Journal
The purpose of this article is to introduce a model for a meaning-based functional syntax. A full description of the model may be found in our recent monograph (Mustajoki 2006b). Work on the model has been carried out in the Department of Slavonic and Baltic Languages and Literature at the University of Helsinki over the last fifteen years. Given that the above-mentioned book and various shorter publications (Mustajoki 1997, 1999, 2003a, 2003b, 2004) have appeared in Russian, it seems appropriate to give a short overview of the model in English. The only presentation of the model in English thus far …

2007 год, объявленный президентом РФ В.В.Путиным годом русского языка, стал значимой вехой в новейшей истории. В этом плане 2007 год перестает быть обычным календарным временем, обозначая уже не меру дней – от января до января, – он становится названием геокультурной эпохи.
Self-Reported Russian And Belarusian Language Utilization In Key Economic, Political, And Social Domains In Belarus, N. Anthony Brown
Self-Reported Russian And Belarusian Language Utilization In Key Economic, Political, And Social Domains In Belarus, N. Anthony Brown
Russian Language Journal
The elicitation of language usage in the present study was carried out by means of a survey. Language utilization was surveyed in the home, in school, at work, and in government institutions to ascertain whether a functional hierarchy of domains in Belarusian and/or Russian obtains in Belarus. In addition, the study examines whether domain-specific language utilization varies according to participants’ sex. Respondents were asked to evaluate choice of language as “useful” or “necessary” for each domain. Findings reflect self-reports from 559 students born in Belarus and attending eight different institutions of higher education, cumulatively. Data were collected in three cities, …
Language Learning Behaviors Outside Of The Study Abroad Classroom: An Analysis Of Actr Program Participants At The Semester, Academic Year And Flagship Levels, Sharon L. Bain
Russian Language Journal
Recent research in the field of second language acquisition is reconsidering the relationship between learning context and language gain, and is reevaluating study abroad programs compared to home-based immersion programs (Collentine and Freed 2004; Freed et al 2004, Segalowitz et al 2004). These researchers and others (Pellegrino 2005, Rivers 1998, Davidson et al 1995) point out that learners in study abroad programs often do not achieve expected language gains across major thresholds as measured by ACTFL oral proficiency standards, and a large proportion of students make no measurable gain, even after four months of study abroad in Russia (Davidson 2007, …
Proverbial Language And Its Role In Acquiring A Second Language And Culture, Natalya Vanyushkina
Proverbial Language And Its Role In Acquiring A Second Language And Culture, Natalya Vanyushkina
Russian Language Journal
Researchers in the domain of Russian as a foreign and a second language have paid relatively little attention to proverbs as units of linguistic and cultural expression. Due to this neglect and the overall scarcity of statistical data on current Russian proverbial language, many Russian textbooks and dictionaries offer at best some outdated proverbs that have fallen into disuse in contemporary Russia and at worst, disregard proverbial language altogether. However, this expressive language deserves much more serious consideration from both researchers and teachers of Russian. Russian native speakers take it for granted that their interlocutors share the assumptions behind proverbs, …

Report On The Xi International Congress Of Maprial Varna Free University, Bulgaria September 2007, Robert Channon, Mary Nicholas, William Rivers
Russian Language Journal
This overview of the papers at the MAPRIAL XI Congress in Varna focuses on presentations in linguistic analysis. Other overviews concentrate on the presentations in other areas. There were a great many highly compelling papers dealing with linguistic analysis, including presentations by some linguists whose names will be very familiar to those who follow this discipline. The papers’ topics ran the gamut from the history and development of Russian to those focusing on the analysis of contemporary Russian, as well as those looking ahead to how Russian may be changing, including current developments in colloquial language and slang. A particular …

Русский Язык И Русская Речь: Парадоксы Современности, Татьяна Балыхина
Russian Language Journal
Активные тенденции в современном русском языке. Язык и время - одна из проблем, волнующих исследователей. Язык живет во времени, а время отражается в языке, точнее оказывает влияние на язык. Возросшие темпы языковых изменений объясняются прежде всего меняющимся составом и обликом русского общества, сменой социальных, политических, экономических, а также психологических установок.

For centuries the berries that grow in the forests and swamps of northern Russia have been a crucial source of vitamin C, antioxidants, and other micronutrients that would otherwise be lacking in the locally-based diet of most Russians.
