“The Value-Based Professional Profile of Future Specialists’ Sociocultural Identity: The Current State of Professional Language Education”
Anna Konstantinovna Krupchenko, Doctor of Pedagogical Sciences, Professor, and Leading Research Fellow at the State University of Education
Professor Krupchenko will examine how the study of values in foreign language education informs professional language education, an interdisciplinary approach to preparing specialists to communicate in a foreign language in professional settings.
Drawing on doctoral dissertations and studies carried out under state research assignments and research projects, she will discuss how the priorities of national education policy are reflected in educational research. The talk will address the preservation of traditional Russian spiritual and moral values, the development of civic responsibility and collectivism, and shared responsibility for strengthening Russia’s sovereignty in matters of worldview and technology.
The practical part of the talk will focus on how educators can help future specialists communicate across cultures on an equal footing. Professor Krupchenko will also discuss how to select teaching methods that account for an organization’s information security requirements.
To conclude, she will present a value-based professional profile of future specialists’ sociocultural identity and explain how it reflects current developments in professional language education.
We invite educators, researchers, and specialists in linguistics and professional language education to take part in the conference and discuss the role of values in foreign language training for future professionals.
