Summary of the subject: The working program of the study discipline “Applied Morphology and Syntax” is concluded for students of the specialty 035 Philology of the Institute of Computer Sciences and Information Technologies. This course is a necessary component of studying the cycle of general linguistic disciplines and provides students with the formation of scientific and research professional competence on general theoretical issues related to methodological approaches to the study of linguistic facts in modern linguistics, taking into account the retrospective, the current state, and the prospects of its development. The goal of the educational discipline is to provide students with an in-depth understanding of the tasks and directions of applied morphology and the main approaches to the analysis of syntactic structures. Education is carried out by integrating speaking skills and language knowledge within a familiar general thematic and situational context in accordance with a certain academic and professional field of activity for students. Self-education is considered an integral part of this educational course, and special attention is paid to the independent work of students in the programme.
Assessment methods and criteria: Control measures conducted at the university determine the compliance of the level of knowledge, skills, and abilities acquired by students with the requirements of normative documents on higher education and ensure timely adjustment of the educational process. The following types of controls are used to assess the level of achievement of learning outcomes in the discipline of applied morphology and syntax: input, current, and final. Entrance control is carried out at the first practical session in order to determine the level of training of students in the disciplines that are basic for this course. Based on the results of the entrance control, measures are developed to provide individual assistance to students. Current control is carried out at all types of classroom classes (lectures, seminars, practical classes) in order to check the level of students' training on a specific topic (the learning element). The main purpose of current control is to provide feedback between teachers and students to manage students' educational motivation. The information obtained during the current control is used both by the teacher to adjust methods and teaching tools and by the students to plan independent work. Current control is carried out in the form of an oral survey, testing, student presentations when discussing theoretical issues, etc. The results of the current control are important information for determining the final grade in the discipline during the semester control. Current control: processing of literary sources; performance of individual tasks; preparation and defence of presentations. The exit control is carried out at the last practical lesson in order to determine the level of assimilation of theoretical material and acquisition of practical skills in the discipline of Applied Morphology and Syntax. The final control ensures the assessment of student learning results during the semester control, which is conducted in accordance with the curriculum in the form of a semester credit in terms established by the schedule of the educational process and in the amount of educational material determined by the work programme of the discipline. The form of the semester control is a written component (testing) and an oral component. The content and structure of control tasks and evaluation criteria are determined by the decision of the AL department, indicated in the work programme of the academic discipline, and brought to the attention of students at the first lesson. Final control: differentiated credit.
