Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) as actualization methodology of interdisciplinary links in technical university
Abstract
Interdisciplinary links being in line with the current Federal State Standard 3+ are the basis of integrative processes in the system of higher education. One of the forms of interdisciplinary links actualization is the methodology of Content and Language Integrated Learning which has made its way into higher education sphere in the recent years. The research aims at defining the role of Content and Language Integrated Learning in higher education, taking into account its essentially interdisciplinary nature. We consider the middle position of Content and Language Integrated Learning in teaching foreign languages on the imaginary scale between English for Specific Purposes and English as Medium of Instruction. The analysis of Content and Language Integrated Learning practices in use and problems relating to Content and Language Integrated Learning localization in foreign universities showed that the key factor of successful Content and Language Integrated Learning implementation is cooperation between language instructors and special discipline lecturers. Then the paper claims that Content and Language Integrated Learning methodology can be adopted in Russian technical universities in two main models. The first model draws on bilingual teaching of general scientific (e. g., mathematics) or engineering disciplines, the second one is based on the discipline “Professionally-oriented Foreign Language” which can be taught in the forms of “Introduction to a Specialty” or “Introduction to a Discipline” . At the same time the authors conclude that there is no universal model of Content and Language Integrated Learning implementation in modern university, with its localization depending on the potential of a particular higher education institution. It is also noted that the establishment of interdepartmental cooperation required for Content and Language Integrated Learning practice is a difficult organizational task.

Teaching a foreign language for professional purposes course on the basis of the model of content and language integrated learning in an agricultural institution
Abstract
The purpose of teaching foreign languages to students of non-linguistic areas of training is the development of a foreign-language communicative competence in the spheres of professional communication. In this regard, the thematic content of the training “Foreign Language for Professional Purposes” should be aimed at an in-profile specialization and reflect the specifics of not only the students’ specialization, but also the chosen profile of education within specialization. However, as the analysis of the main educational programs on a number of areas of training in agrarian universities and the curricula of the course “Foreign Language for Professional Purposes” shows, the thematic content of teaching a foreign language does not always reflect the specifics of the students’ specialization and the profile of training. In this paper we examine the main three models of teaching a foreign language for professional purposes: 1) a model of teaching a foreign language for specific purposes; 2) a model for teaching a profile discipline in a foreign language; 3) model of content and language integrated learning . On the basis of the analysis of models, the content of the discipline “Foreign Language for Professional Purposes” is proposed in the work, implemented on the basis of the model of teaching a profile discipline and a foreign language. We offer the subject content of teaching a foreign language, as well as the thematic content of this course on the example of the direction of preparation “Gardening” and two profiles: “Decorative Horticulture and Landscape Design” and “Fruit and Vegetable Growing and Viticulture”. The materials of the work testify that often the thematic content of the teaching of the discipline will be invariant regardless of the chosen training profile, and the part is variable, reflecting the specificity of the specific training profile.

Physical recreation of women students with the aid of artistic gymnastics
Abstract
Information and emotional pressure along with low cultural level of students’ health way of living (inability to organize daily routine, work and rest efficiently, individual physical education and sports classes, spending long hours in front of a computer or a television) provoke syndromes of “early and chronic fatigue” and lower motional potential. In this regard the research of different means of physical education influence on students’ physical education acquires special pedagogical and social significance. Physical recreation has powerful resources for pedagogical influence on personal development of a student. Physical recreation compensates the lack of motional activity among students and forms the substantive basis of physical education and recreation activities during university years including physical exercises, sports and action games, hiking, physical activity breaks, skiing, health-improving run, working out at the gym. Essence and significance of physical recreation are revealed, the data are presented, which allows to form an opinion of women students’ attitude towards physical recreation and physical education and sports classes.

Peculiarities of educational activities organization at the special (correctional) educational institutions of the 8 type and prospective directions of its development
Abstract
For a long time the possibility of teaching and educating mentally retarded children was denied and the possibility of training was first proved by the French psychiatrist J. Itar in 1799. At present, the role of pedagogical influence does not cause doubts in the education and upbringing of these children. All the mentally retarded children are characterized by significant deviations in thinking, perception, speech activity, memory, attention, volitional processes, emotional sphere. These deviations not only negatively affect their education and upbringing, but also their socialization and integration into modern society. Therefore, the goal of education and training of a mentally retarded child is the formation and development of his vital skills and skills for his subsequent socialization and integration into modern society. A mentally retarded child must master the vital skills and abilities to the extent that they are individually available to him. The formation of a base of vital skills and skills requires a special approach and occupies one of the priority areas in the activities of special (correctional) educational institutions of the 8 type. But, despite the large number of works devoted to the education and upbringing of mentally retarded children, its socialization and integration into modern society is at present the most important social and pedagogical problem.

On correlation between football and war: social and historical view
Abstract
Bstract. The correlation between football and war is presented from the social and historical point of view. The necessity of such correlation is determined by the absence of social and historical analysis of sports functioning on the football example in the modern conditions of social development with progressive acts of hostility, social and political tension, and aggression that poses a real threat to existence of football, other popular sports, and the whole Olympic Movement as well. Such research methods as analysis, integration of information of specific literature, comparison, and examination of electronic resources were used. The research was carried out on the base of Belgorod National Research University (Russian Federation), University of Baghdad (Republic of Iraq) during 2015-2018. In whole 157 different sources are studied. Considering the correlation between football and war the historical facts are given that testify football as a unique social and historical means of interaction between football teams during time of peace and also as a means of hostility acts, conflicts and even acts of war. In addition to that football has become the means of temporary compromise between hostilities, demonstration of nobility and hardiness, and sometimes the cause of warmongering. The received data has been analyzed for the first time. The results of the research testify that football in social and historical context goes beyond training and competition activities. Social tendencies influence on the system of sports activity. Due to that sports became the tool of interaction between hostilities (teams or countries), prerequisites and consequences of which have obvious or hidden political, economical, ideological nature. The results of the research contribute to the widening of insights about social functions of sports in modern society and initiate new directions of history, sociology, and sports theory researches.

Methods of “arm lever inside” drill training as a component of police officers physical training
Abstract
We have studied methodical aspects of combat drill training as an element of complex police officers physical training to the line of duty. On the basis of longstanding work with attendees on drill training and using combat techniques, particularly, “arm lever inside” technique, we made a conclusion that despite carrying out the technique is regulated strictly by methodical recommendations it is desirable to use the elements for its improvement. It will lead to faster and more qualitative skills mastering that is necessary for the line of duty. We recommend methods of “arm lever inside” drill training that includes studying techniques for two or three classes restrictions on freedom of movement twisting hands inside, followed by the use of its elements in the release of seizures and grabs, as well as protection from attacks with bladed weapons or other items. As part of the improvement of the technique of receiving the “arm lever inside” and its subsequent development, we propose in the end of the reception pressing the partner’s arm to hold the fixation of the enemy in a controlled position. This is determined by the fact that, in ignoring this recommendation, the situation remains poorly controlled and when resisting until the completion of admission, the student has to engage in combat, which does not always lead to the desired result in detention. The basis for the conclusion was an in-depth study and practice of admission to additional classes with employees who want to improve their performance in physical development, including fighting techniques. In the conclusion noted that practicing the technique with fixation and retention within six months of training three times a week during extra classes in physical training provides a lot of confidence in its holding, the faster and more precise performance.

Abstract
The modern education system in the field of information security in the Russian Federation, based on consideration of educational and professional standards is analyzed. It is shown that the training of specialists in the protection of information includes secondary vocational and higher education, implemented by higher educational institutions and professional educational organizations. The conclusion is made that the system of education in the field of information security correlates with the system of professional information protection activities. Thus, the requirements for the knowledge, skills, and abilities of graduates of secondary and higher education institutions in the field of information security largely coincide with similar requirements for knowledge, skills, and abilities of employees whose professional activity is related to the group of “Specialists of Information Security”. Differences in knowledge, skills (working practices) of graduates and employees based on the analysis of standards are studied. The quantitative indicators of educational programs of Russian universities are analyzed. The demand for a single-level system in the field of information security is grounded in connection with the complexity and multifaceted nature of the activities of graduates-future specialists in information protection. The substantive component of training specialists was considered in detail, conclusions were drawn that all areas of training are focused on the training of highly qualified specialists capable of solving problems of providing information security from the natural, technical and legal aspects of the humanitarian component.

Abstract
Anatoly Alexandrovich Vasiliev is a world-famous director, teacher and honoured artist of Russia and reformer of the Russian theatre of the turn of the 20-21th centuries, who opened new ways of stage art. The innovation of experimental pursuits of A.A. Vasiliev is considered, he managed to creatively develop a method based on the achievements of the Russian psychological school and obtained in GITIS from the hands of M.O. Knebel, former student of K.S. Stanislavskiy.

The meaning of the term “fryagi” in the Tale of Past Years
Abstract
It is reasonably proved that the opinion which classifies the Genoeses like the “fryagi” of the Japhet’s tribe in the Tale of Past Years isn’t based on the real facts. This statement is deeply fixed in the science and in the translations of the most ancient chronicle. It is based on the texts of the Kulikovo cycle where the term “fryagi” is used. But the analysis of these and some other sources demonstrates that this term got the specific content only if it was geographically and ethnically localizated. Without it is absolutely impersonal (as well as the term “nemtsi” which was used to name a big part of the West-European people). That is why the interpretation of the term “fryagi” of the chronicle as the Genoeses is incorrect. The true point of view was expressed by V.N. Tatishchev who stated that the “fryagi” were the Franks. Herewith the “vendizi”, the fryagi’s neighbors, are not the Venetians, but the polabian and South Baltic Slavs named “wends” which played a very important role in the history of Central and Eastern Europe in the 11th-12th centuries. They are linked to the Varangians and the Rus who came, according to the chronicle, to the eastern Slavs in 862 and took a very active part in their life.

Reflection of the processes of resettlement in the Upper Amur Region in “mirror of oikonymy”: historical and cultural overview
Abstract
The names of settlements (oikonyms) of the Upper Amur Region are studied. The development of this region began in the second half of the 17th century by Russian Cossacks. Nevertheless, in the following years (especially after the “Aygun treaty”), the oikonyms of this region began to acquire their own specifics. It is to these problems that research is turned. A number of researchers used to address this problem, but the relevance of the work presented is to generalize and present a holistic “oikonymic portrait” of the relocation of human groups and communities from other regions of the Russian state. Equally important is the application of the combined approach to the history of the development of Upper Amur region: geographical, historical and linguistic. The analysis of geographical names, formed in the 17-20th centuries and preserved on the map of the 21th century, is carried out. The isoglossar approach and the “level method”, which was previously developed by us, are partially used. The use of the analysis of toponyms for the history of the development of the Far East (and in particular of the Amur region) was not used so often. However, the names of settlements carry not only “ideological coloring”, but also features (aspects) of the movement of groups of people united by a single goal or common common residence. There are other sides in the history of settlement of the Far Eastern region. As a result of the analysis, the peculiarities of the distribution of toponyms of the “resettlement type”, the main periods of their appearance, the dynamics of distribution were revealed. The main reasons for the appearance of oikonyms “transferred” from the western regions of the state are indentified, and the imperative of problems in the study of the oikonymy of areas of late settlement is revealed. In addition, the relationship between the number, prevalence of oikonyms of “overpopular” this or that character and the national composition in the Upper Amur region is revealed.

On some peculiarities of civilization types (on the issue “Russia and the West”)
Abstract
We consider the centuries-old problem of Russian socio-political thought about its civilizational relationship with the West due to the new aggravation in recent years. The attention is focused on the main reasons for the differences between us, related to the difference of objective factors that form civilizational types, such as geography, climate, religion, mentality and others, which give advantages to one, create an erroneous idea of their place and role in the world and the right to dictate to other peoples their rules and conditions, which inevitably leads the world to conflicts on the basis of the absolutization of the Western vision of the world. The Russian philosophers’ statements in the 19-20 centuries (N.Y. Danilevskiy, Eurasianists, and others) on the role and place of Russia in the world and its priorities became prophetic. We suggest that the fundamental properties and principles of non-Western civilizational types are more acceptable for international relations in terms of their humanity and justice.

The late 19th - early 20th century is the period of cardinal changes in different spheres of people’s life and activities.

Universal reformation in the relation to village and town architectural and spatial solutions in terms of fast pace of industrialization development became the main goal of the projects. Such sociocultural and architectural and spatial phenomenon as labor and factory settlements became one of the most important factor of a new concept formation of resettlement within the country in 1920s.

Vladivostok maritime port and Russian maritime shipping position at the Far East in the period from 1905 to 1914
Abstract
The activities of the Vladivostok port in the period from 1905 to 1914 are shown, special attention is paid to the position of the port under conditions of industrial expansion, the activities of special meetings and commissions that have developed port development projects and proposals for improving its management are disclosed. The analysis of the views of such researchers as V.P. Byankin, A.I. Krushanov, N.A. Belyaeva, Y.D. Filippov, A.A. Illarionov, A.A. Gvozdarev, G. Orlenko and other authors, who historically consistently traced the stages of the formation and development of domestic navigation in the Far East, showed the tasks that maritime transport solved in economic development and development of the Russian outskirts. Using archival documents we also summarize the new material obtained from archival documents of the Russian State Historical Archives of the Far East and the State Archive of the Primorye Territory, from which we saw changes in the management of the Commercial Port of Vladivostok. The activities of special meetings and commissions that developed port development projects and proposals for improving its management were disclosed. The general description of the projects of the Commercial Port of Vladivostok establishment is given, the regulatory framework regulating the order of port administration is analyzed. Attention is drawn to the inconsistency of the organization of the port administration, which generated numerous interdepartmental contradictions between the naval, the military with one and civilian departments. The conclusion is made that the Commercial Port of Vladivostok needs modernization of infrastructure facilities and expansion of access roads in connection with increased freight turnover. The allocation of state subsidies for the maintenance of regular flights to the shipping companies promoted the further economic development of domestic industry in the Far East and contributed to the expansion of maritime navigation in the region.
