Publication Are collocations worth teaching in adult learner English as a foreign language (EFL) classes?Since the beginning of the twentieth century communication among people of diverse cultures has become an urgent demand. There are various motives for adults to learn English as a foreign language: to develop their career or to increase their cultural horizons. The challenges facing adult learners are quite different from those encountered by younger learners. The time adults spend in training sessions is their worthwhile investment. Teachers have to adapt their teaching methods to help their adult students acquire the target language in a limited time. The current research involves a survey that raises the importance of collocations in English language acquisition for adult learners (students of military specialty). A multiple choice questionnaire was applied. 58 intermediate English language learners were involved in the research in order to find out that teaching collocation in EFL groups is obviously considered to be one of the most effective ways to easily develop learners’ written and oral communicative competence. The results from the research were positive enough: the findings have implications for EFL teachers to encourage adult language learners to practice new words not only by remembering separate words, but also their stable collocations. The study recommends remedial procedures for the curriculum in the students’ collocational knowledge development. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Attributive Clause in Georgian LanguageThe given article discusses a complex sentence with an attributive clause in Guram Dochanashvili’s novel “The First Garment”. The attributive clause gives a broad explanation about an antecedent in the main clause and a complementizer that is related to it. Relative pronoun in the attributive clause agrees with the word (antecedent) in number and is declined according to a predicate in the subordinate clause. Attributive clause is related to a declinable word in main clause, such as noun, pronoun or infinitive. Position of subordinate clause is studied with its subordinators and complementizers in a complex sentence. In Guram Dochanashvili’s novel, main and subordinate clauses are related to each other by: 1. subordinators: rom [that], titkos [as if; as though]; 2. relative pronouns: vinc [who], rac [ that], romelic [ which], rogoric [ how], ranairic [ what kind/type]; ramdenic [how many]; 3. relative adverbs: sadac [where], saidanac [from where] and is, igi [he/she/it], iseti [such s] are used as correlatives. Complementizer – rom [that] (from relative pronouns), romelic [which/that/who] (from relative pronoun) and sadac [where] (from relative adverbs) are frequently used to join main and subordinate clauses together. There are no writing deviations within this construction in the novel. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Organoleptic and Chemical Analysis Characteristics of Sulguni Stored in BeeswaxIn the paper showed organoleptic and chemical analysis of sulguni that is made of traditional technology and sulguni in beeswax has been carried out to study the effects of bee wax layer on the organoleptic and chemical parameters of sulguni. Some main factors are obstacle those make influence on sulguni, such as: cheese weight loss, fat oxidation and enzymatic breakdown. On the base of analysis the use of beeswax layer improves the physical stability of sulguni, at the same time the visual and tactile characteristics of the surface are improved as well. Moreover, it prevents the existence of mucus and mold on the surface, as well as protects the cheese from moisture loss and sulguni also retains its taste properties. Vacuum packaging cheese production in beeswax layer can be considered as the new, ecologically clean and safe alternative. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication The prospect of using Saferavi wine as a biologically active substance in the production of bread productsA study of total phenols and anthocyanins in bread enriched with grape seed flour and Saperavi has been conducted. The amount of total phenols added to 20 ml of Saperavi wine amounted to 52 mg/l, anthocyanins were not observed. When adding 30 ml of red wine, the amount of total phenols was 103 mg/l, and the amount of anthocyanins was 15 mg/l. In the mentioned samples, the effect of adding wine was expressed organoleptically more in taste, smell and color than in the amount of chemical parameters transferred from the wine. However, it should be noted that the transfer of anthocyanins from wine to bread has added antioxidant nutritional value and distinct technological value to the product. The phenolic compounds transferred from the Saperavi wine to the bread, along with other biologically active substances contained in the bread, determine the high biological activity of the bread and, accordingly, its functional purpose from a curative prophylactic and preventive point of view. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Study Of Writing Skills In Students With Learning DisabilitiesInclusive education is a way, means and approach for high quality education for the students having learning disabilities. Scientists confessed that the students could have difficulties in acquiring academic skills even then they didn’t have neurological disorders. Here we should mention that in the 30ies of the XX century teachers and scientists such as Levin, Boskis, Khvattsev, Rau and others started to study dysgraphia (and dyslexia). When we talk more precisely about dysgraphia, the most valuable contribution was done by Kirk, Nevolina, Kornev, Lyapidevsky, Shakhovskaya, Gogoshidze, Tkeshelashvili, Isakadze and others. While formation –development writing skills the students encounter various difficulties and require special assistance, methodology, activities and resources. In order to study the dynamics of writing skills development among students with learning disabilities at school, it was important to listen to the opinion of teachers of the subject Georgian language and literature and find out how they develop their writing skills. Accordingly, our planned qualitative research was conducted in five public schools of the municipality of Telavi on the basis of fifth-sixth grades. The schools were chosen purposefully, during the preliminary investigation, students with learning disabilities were identified, especially in these classes. All of them are evaluated and an individual curriculum is compiled for them. As a research tool, we used a structured questionnaire prepared in advance by us, which was sent to teachers of the Georgian language and literature (their number is 5). We selected open-ended questions, the answers to which, according to our assumption, would present a kind of picture of the atmosphere in the classroom and the problems associated with the development of writing skills in students with learning disabilities. The research proves that while teaching for students with learning disabilities, one of the obstructive factors is students’ low self-evaluation and motivation, also not having the skill of self-regulation own learning. While study process it is not managed to effectively improve them. If we don’t teach self-regulation of learning to students step by step, s/he will always be relayed on others during learning which will influence self-evaluation and motivation.
