    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[THE IMPLEMENTATION OF COLLABORATIVE WEB 2.0 TOOLS IN ELT  CLASSROOMS]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[The internet applications first labeled by Tim O‘Reilly in 2004 as Web 2.0  have offered numerous new opportunities for the English teachers. Blogging, wikis,  podcasting, and social networking are a few examples of the so-called Web 2.0  technologies that language teachers are currently exploring. However, not only many  ELT teachers currently working at the schools but also a good number of prospective  English teachers‘ awareness of Web 2.0 tools in ELT is far from satisfactory (Usluel  and others, 2009). This paper aims to provide awareness for the educators for the  potentials of Web 2.0 tools in language learning and teaching. A theoretical  foundation for a technology enhanced pedagogy is outlined, one that places Web 2.0  within a social constructivist and connectivist context. Also the importance of Web  2.0 tools in providing comprehensible input to the language learner is emphasized.  Finally, an overview of relevant technologies applicable to ELT is provided, along  with successful classroom usage models and links to online resources.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Safety management is one of the most important tasks in the coal mining  sector. It is argued that an appropriate information system that monitors  safety information can improve the coal mine safety management and  reduce the occurrences of disasters. Therefore, the primary aim of this  paper is to study the implementation and impact of a specific information  system implemented in the Coal Mine Kakanj, Bosnia and Herzegovina. The  focus of the study was on examining employees’ satisfaction with their  implemented information system. Data were collected through interviews  of employees who were system users. Their collected responses were  analyzed using qualitative methods. The analyses performed revealed  some interesting results. Their implications for the coal mine safety  management were discussed and several plausible directions for future  research are recommended.

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Importance of a Corpus-Based Study in Revealing the Precise Meaning of the Collocation Make Mistake]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Key words: semantic preference, semantic prosody, collocation, corpus, corpus linguistics  ABSTRACT  Previous corpus-based studies have shown that semantic preference and semantic prosody can be of crucial importance in identifying the meaning of various lexical items (Sinclair, 1996; Partington 2004; Begagić, 2013). Since such research would be impossible without the advent of computers as well as specialized programs used for searching million-word corpora, the lexical items are examined within the scope of corpus linguistics.  This study presents a corpus-based analysis of the meaning of one of the most common V-N collocations in the Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA) in two different registers, the newspaper and the academic one. In order to make the study as objective as possible, every second occurrence, of the first 100 randomly selected occurrences, is examined and all the word forms of the collocation make mistake are included, i.e. make mistake, makes mistake, made mistake and making mistake. All the word forms are carefully observed in the span of ten.  The OALD does not offer any definition under the both entries, make and mistake, however there are several examples of its usage under the entry of mistake, implying the existence of collocation. The present study indicates that at least two definitions should be placed under the entry of make mistake. The results also suggest that the meaning of the collocation is contingent upon the registers in which it is used. Moreover, the pivotal role of semantic preference and semantic prosody in identifying the meaning of make mistake is pointed out as well as the fact that million-word corpora are the only true sources that provide accurate and objective information about natural language.]]></dcterms:abstract>

The subject of the research is the  elaboratation of the basic assumptions of Balanced Scorecard model in its  essential elements and display the possibilities of its application, as well as  showing the importance of methodology of Balanced Scorecard to translate  company’s strategy into initiatives, measures and effects. With clear indicators  and measures it is possible to develope and improve the organization. The  tasks and standards observe the results of the organization through four  perspectives: finances, customer, internal business processes and learning and  development.

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The importance of being critical – Polish EFL teachers&#039; beliefs and practices]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Sooner or later, countries like Poland will have to welcome immigrants from the Middle East and successfully communicate with the immigrants from different cultural backgrounds. I would like to argue that critical cultural awareness proves to be a cornerstone of the model of Intercultural Communicative Competence (Byram, 1997) and should be considered a prerequisite for developing the rest of the components comprising the model. The main aim of the present research paper is to investigate, analyse and discuss Polish EFL teachers&#039; beliefs on the idea of including critical cultural awareness, a crucial component of intercultural competence, in the EFL lessons, teachers&#039; teaching practices with reference to developing particular elements of intercultural competence in the EFL lessons and the possible discrepancies between their beliefs and practices. A questionnaire administered to 125 Polish EFL teachers and a case study of three practitioners, who were observed, interviewed and confronted in a focus-group discussion, were used to collect the relevant data. The results of my research study suggest that a lot of Polish EFL teachers declare that they consider Byram&#039;s intercultural communicative competence model (Byram 1997) relevant to foreign language teaching and learning in the present-day and seem to be willing to implement it in their lessons, yet many of those teachers appear not to prioritize intercultural competence in their teaching practice. This apparent discrepancy between language teachers&#039; beliefs and their practices may stem from teachers&#039; lack of sufficient intercultural training during their professional education. A need for implementing critical cultural awareness into the pre-service teacher trainings was identified.    Keywords: intercultural competence, critical cultural awareness, EFL teaching and learning]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[THE IMPORTANCE OF CONTRASTIVE TEXT STUDIES IN TRANSLATOLOGY]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[The paper aims at bringing up a type of text linguistic analysis, different from traditional one, with the emphasis on the contrastive studies in general and on the English-Albanian cross-linguistic phenomena in particular. It will concentrate in explaining some of the most intriguing and most diverse text analysis elements having in mind the following text categories: Point of view, Composition, Text Idioms. A grammatical structure (Relative Constructions) has been examined thoroughly within the translation method analysis, out of and within the co-text analysis. It resulted in two different outcomes: traditional direct method analysis on one side and text linguistic co-text analysis on the other. Text linguistics as a special field of studies has been greatly developed due to the increased number of translations from one language into another. Text analysis, which relies on the deep description of micro and macro text elements of the text, is crucial for determining the level of translation accuracy of a particular text. Having in mind the relevance of recent discourse and pragmatic analyses impact in the development of interdisciplinary studies, the explanation of constituent elements of the written text is of great importance for the contrastive text studies or translation studies respectively.]]></dcterms:abstract>
