    Trinity College Diploma in TESOL offers a compulsory part of the course titled Unknown Language Learning Experience. It is an assessed part of the course and it accounts for 20% of the final mark. Trainees have to write a language journal guided by a semi- structured questionnaire after observing and participating in four lessons taught in an unknown language. The main objective of this experience is to introduce teaching methodologies and activities suitable for total beginners and to show how to write up a lesson plans and do a contrastive analysis. In 2003 we have organized a course on the island of Gran Canaria training 24 students from the UK, Australia and Spain. Eleven/twelve years after the experience, in 2015, we have asked them the very same questions they had to answer back in 2003 in their journals. This action research procedure has proven the validity of the unknown language experience. The questions we have analysed deal with feeling, motivation, teaching strategies, objectives and techniques. 100% of them valued the experience as a positive one and 40% of them stated that they could follow the lesson precisely because only L2 was used. 100% of the trainees said that they have used the same unknown language teaching strategies since they have considered them as a very useful in language teaching methodology. Due to the success of the experiment we have done trial experiments from 2011- 2013 at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria with the main aim to implement the Unknown Language Experience in the core curriculum at the Teacher Training Faculty.

    Get PDF
    The paper touches upon the peculiarities of the so called “marine theme” in Romantic art as a whole, and its central image – the Flying Dutchman, in particular. The etymology of this image, as well its numerous literary interpretations make up the subject of the research. Three key literary works of Romanticism, the ballad by S.T. Coleridge, the libretto by R. Wagner, and the novel by H. Melville, are in the spotlight of the given paper. The roots of the Flying Dutchman can be traced in the texts by Apollonius of Rhodes and Homer – their legendary books“Argonautica” and “Odyssey”respectively, as well as in the Norse mythology, in Edda –a notorious Naglfar, the ship made of deadmen’s nails. At the Age of Discovery the story of a mysterious ship came to its final form. Being first mentioned in various European folk tales, with the course of time the plot became highly popular in late XVIII – XIX centuries. In Romantic literature the legend of the Flying Dutchman transformed into the allegoryof a man punished by Heaven for being too proud to resign himself to God’s will – a symbol of purgatory for sinners begging for mercy and forgiveness to rest in peace. Keywords: Flying Dutchman, Romanticism, Coleridge, Wagner, Melville

    Abstract: In the previous period, organizations from very different sectors have successfully adopted ERP systems. In this study, we will research the impact of ERP in the accounting industry regarding the case study from company in Bosnia and Herzegovina. By many theorists, accounting is usually described as the process of collecting, analyzing, and presenting financial data required for taking appropriate management decisions. Studies have explored the effects of IT in the business and accounting, but they didn’t cover complex technologies such as ERP. Utilizing ERP in accounting allows spending more time on analyzing the data instead of collecting it. This is possible because all information is stored in one place (database) which is easily accessed by everyone allowed to use it. With the successful implementation of ERP in company, accountants have more time to spend for analyzing and reporting, enhancing their roles, and shortening common tasks and activities. The aim of this paper is to explore the significance of ERP systems in management accounting. This research will try to understand what is the role of modern accountants. Enterprise resource planning software has shaped activities and processes in the accounting sector

    Throughout history translation has made inter-linguistic communication between people possible.
