136 Lexical Material of Regional Content in the Process Of
Lexical material of regional content in the process of implementing the communicative approach in teaching English to students of non- linguistic specialties Vladimir B. Pomelov – Rezeda R. Khairutdinova – Nina I. Kryukova DOI: 10.18355/XL.2018.11.01.13 Abstract The purpose of this article is to study the positive, practical experience of using didactic (lexical) material of regional content in the process of implementing the communicative approach in teaching English to students of non-linguistic specialties. The leading method in the study is the pedagogical experiment (ascertaining, forming and control stages of the experiment), as well as the method of expert evaluations, statistical processing of quantitative research results, observation, questioning, modeling of situations, dramatization. The specificity of the authors’ method of applying the communicative approach, implemented in the form of a dialogue, using the vocabulary of a regional orientation, allows to increase the effectiveness of training sessions, raise the level of interest in learning English. The authors developed the content of training courses with regional orientation. The study proved the effectiveness of introducing lexical material of regional orientation. Key words: communicative approach, regional content of lexical material, the English language, teaching methods 1. Introduction 1.1. The urgency of the problem The current period of the development of Russian society is characterized, in particular, by the fact that nowadays, as never before, the youth faces a problem of receiving a high-quality education. The well-known definition of science as an engine of social progress can be supplemented by the definition of education as a driving force for the development of the personality of each individual member of the society.

Suspended Sediment Yield Mapping of Northern Eurasia
326 Sediment Dynamics from the Summit to the Sea (Proceedings of a symposium held in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA, 11–14 December 2014) (IAHS Publ. 367, 2014). Suspended sediment yield mapping of Northern Eurasia K.A. MALTSEV, O.P. YERMOLAEV & V.V. MOZZHERIN Kazan Federal University, Department of the Landscape Ecology, Institute of Ecology and Geography, 18 Kremlevskay St, Kazan, Russia, 420008 Kazan, Russia [email protected] Abstract The mapping of river sediment yields at continental or global scale involves a number of technical difficulties that have largely been ignored. The maps need to show the large zonal peculiarities of river sediment yields, as well as the level (smoothed) local anomalies. This study was carried out to create a map of river sediment yields for Northern Eurasia (within the boundaries of the former Soviet Union, 22 × 106 km2) at a scale of 1:1 500 000. The data for preparing the map were taken from the long-term observations recorded at more than 1000 hydrological stations. The data have mostly been collected during the 20th century by applying a single method. The creation of this map from the study of river sediment yield is a major step towards enhancing international research on understanding the mechanical denudation of land due mainly to erosion. Key words suspended sediment yield; GIS; thematic map; watershed boundaries; Northern Eurasia INTRODUCTION The mapping of river suspended sediment yield is the most significant challenge for the experts working in the fields of hydrology and geomorphology. This challenge can be attributed mainly to the sparse network of hydrological stations that systematically observe sediment yield.

Fennoscandia archaeologica XIII (1996) Valerij Patrushev & Mika Lavento SOSNOVAYA GRIVA 3 - A DWELLING SITE COMPLEX IN THE MARl REPUBLIC, IN THE MIDDLE VOLGA REGION Abstract This article briefly presents the excavation, material and structure of the dwellings at the Bronze Age site of Sosnovaya Griva 3 in Mari-El, characterizing the relationship between so called Pseudo-Net ceramics and the Smooth-Faced pottery in the Middle Volga region. Both types of pottery belong to the textile ceramic tradition (textile-impressed pottery) that extend ed from the River Kama to Fennoscandia during the Early Metal Period. The dwelling site of Sosnovaya Griva 3 belongs to the same period as the Finno-Permian linguistic stage. On the basis of the Early Pseudo-Net ceramics and Smooth-Faced Prikazan pottery it can be con nected with the Atabaevsk period of the Prikazan culture.

The Role of Russian Federal Protected Areas in Conservation of Plant Species Included in the Red Data Book of Russian Federation (Volga Federal District) Anatoliy A
Wulfenia 27 (2020): 114 –126 Mitteilungen des Kärntner Botanikzentrums Klagenfurt The role of Russian federal protected areas in conservation of plant species included in the Red Data Book of Russian Federation (Volga Federal District) Anatoliy A. Khapugin, Margarita M. Gafurova, Guzyaliya F. Suleymanova, Gennadiy A. Bogdanov, Tatyana F. Chap, Natalya A. Zenkova & Tamara P. Belkovskaya Summary: The main task of protected areas is biodiversity conservation primarily concerning threatened species of plants and animals. Their value is the greater, the higher number of threatened species populations is located in this area. In Russia, conservation of species included in the Red Data Book of Russian Federation (hereafter – Russian Red Data Book plant species), has the highest priority. In this paper, we studied Russian Red Data Book plant species, known in ten protected areas of Volga Federal District (European Russia). We estimated the number of Russian Red Data Book plant species per protected area; Representativeness Index of each species per protected area; proportion of Russian Red Data Book species populations of which are being studied in protected areas; rarity categories of each plant species according to regional Red Data Books. We found out that in studied protected areas 29 Russian Red Data Book plant species are known. In different regions, populations of 6.7% to 60.0% of all Russian Red Data Book plant species are present in the studied protected areas. At the same time, Representativeness Index of these plants varied from 0.67% (Cypripedium calceolus, Bolshaya Kokshaga State Nature Reserve) to 78.6% (Thymus cimicinus, Khvalynsky National Park). Population-based studies of Russian Red Data Book plant species have not been carryed out for all of them in studied protected areas.

ISSN 2039-2117 (online) Mediterranean Journal of Social Sciences Vol 6 No 3 S7 ISSN 2039-9340 (print) MCSER Publishing, Rome-Italy June 2015 Ethno-Cultural Education as the Basis of Forming Schoolchildren’s Ecological Competence Olga A. Makarova Elena V. Maltseva Svetlana A. Mukhina Olga B. Shestakova Mari State University, Yoshkar-Ola, Russia Email: [email protected] Doi:10.5901/mjss.2015.v6n3s7p397 Abstract The article is devoted to the vital problem of the formation students’ ecological competence. Ethno-cultural education based on the use of people’s traditions is necessary nowadays in order to overcome consumer attitude towards the nature, moral and bioethical education of the younger generation. The article gives the theoretical basis of environmental competence and ethno- cultural education, various approaches to the concept of "ethno-cultural awareness." The selected and worked out research methods gave an opportunity to determine the level of development of students’ environmental competence and ethno-cultural awareness. The majority of the students of middle and senior grades according to most parameters of environmental awareness and ethno-cultural competence belong to the low level group and only a small number belong to the medium-level group. The results of the diagnostics of environmental awareness and ethno-cultural competence contributed to the development of the fields of work aimed at the the formation and development of students’ environmental competence on the basis of ethno-cultural education, which presupposes the teacher’s use of the ethnic and cultural heritage of the local people of the Mari El Republic - the Mari. Specially organized purposeful educational activities contribute to successful development of students’ environmental awareness and ethno-cultural competence.
