It is language which allows human beings an orientation in their environment different from that of a monad in a world defined by the laws of restabilised harmony, different from that of an ant in a world ruled by the rigid interaction principles of the anthem. The verbal transmission of all sorts of theoretical and practical knowledge handed down from one generation to the next, on the one hand, and of rapidly changing, situation-bound information, on the other, sets the stage for that particular type of behaviour which we consider to be human. It is language which makes possible all higher forms of cognition as well as that particular kind of interaction between members of a species which is characteristic of human beings. We can imagine a "mind" without language, but surely not a human mind without language. We are not born with a language in our head. No new-born child knows English, Chinese, or French.

Effects of openness of leaders in success of organizations Amine Khadyr International Burch University / Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina ABSTRACT Nowadays many seminars, conferences and courses held and books written in order to improve leadership skills of different kinds of leaders from all over the world. However the openness of leaders in the organization has not been mentioned seriously as it is one of the main skills that successful leaders should have. In this research paper my intention was to demonstrate the idea that openness of leaders is directly related with the success of organization. With the present study, I argue that the characteristic of leaders that is openness of leader’s plays as big role for the effectiveness of employees as well as success of the organization. It is very important because many organizations nowadays fail to operate because of its leader’s lacked skills. | 21 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

A shared interest in a topic, however, is no guarantee that what is acceptable as a theory in one field or approach will satisfy the conceptual requirements of a theory in others. In the West, from antiquity to the late nineteenth century, theoretical statements about translation fell into traditionally defined areas of thinking about language and culture: literary theory and criticism, rhetoric, grammar, philosophy. And the most frequently cited theorists comprised a fairly limited group. One such catalogue might include: Cicero, Horace, Quintilian, Augustine, Jerome, Dryden, Goethe, Schleiermacher, Arnold, Nietzsche. Twentieth-century translation theory reveals a much expanded range of fields and approaches reflecting the differentiation of modern culture: not only varieties of linguistics, literary criticism, philosophical speculation, and cultural theory, but experimental studies and anthropological fieldwork, as well as translator training and translation practice. Any account of theoretical concepts and trends must acknowledge the disciplinary sites in which they emerged in order to understand and evaluate them. At the same time, it is possible to locate recurrent themes and celebrated topoi, if not broad areas of agreement. | 39 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The British Broadcasting Company (BBC) initially created an animated movie entitled Muzzy in Gondoland (1986) with the purpose of teaching English as a second or foreign language to children. Three years later, BBC released its sequel, entitled Muzzy comes back. It was supposed to be used for teaching only English language, but due to the movies' remarkable effects on young learners' English language acquisition, the movie was redesigned into a program Muzzy used for teaching not only English, but also many other languages worldwide. The essence of Muzzy lies in its fun and multisensory approach to language acquisition, presenting languages in meaningful context and stress-free environment. The focus of this research is on the analysis of the program's linguistic aspects, including linguistic components and benefits in cognitive terms, as well as on the introduction of its main concept. The procedures and manner in which Muzzy has been used in young learners' classrooms for more than 25 years now are specifically emphasized. 26 | � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

In this talk I will argue that our notion of linguistic competence needs to be revisited. Static depictions of the grammar of the target language are not suitable for informing research and language teaching. The fact is that language is dynamic, a characteristic that the term “competence” does not reflect. By entertaining a view of language informed by Complexity Theory, we will come to see language as a complex adaptive system. Complexity theory sees language as a set of patterns emerging from use. Those that are frequentlyoccurring become emergent stabilities in a complex system. The patterns themselves are variegated in form, and their borders are graded, not discrete.Complexity theorists subscribe to an emergentist view of language development. As such, no innate language acquisition faculty is posited. Instead, it is thought that a learner’s language resources develop from the interactions that the learner experiences. Out of these interactions, a new order self-organizes. Development is thus never complete, and a learner’s language resources can be seen as a dynamic ensemble of interacting patterns.

Future self-image of modern language teachers Kenan Kadušić International Burch University / Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina ABSTRACT This study aims to provide an understanding towards the question “Who is English Language Teacher?” which may sound very simple to answer when it is heard for the first time, but in reality it is NOT so simple. “Education” covering many concepts under it is accepted inevitable from ancient times till todays. The investments for the education by governments are still not enough to fulfil the changing needs. “Teachers” are playing the main role in that important process. If that role is crucial what about the qualifications of teachers? Steps to be taken training are changing according to the needs of the time and developing technology. By conducting a questionnaire survey for the evaluation of those qualifications, we examined the current situation and expectations for that dynamic from the point of the pre-service teachers studying at a Faculty of Education.

In the Old man and the sea, Santiago says, “A man can be destroyed but not defeated. The true statement can be referred to throughout the novel. Santiago is in the end physically destroyed, but mentally he is not defeated. Santiago’s courage and pride pushes him forward throughout the novel, even when it looks like hope is lost, 32 | �BOOK OF ABSTRACTS but is never defeated. Destruction means to completely ruin or spoil. Santiago experienced this destruction. It started with 84 days of not catching anything. He was being crushed but his spirit and pride prevented defeat. During the fight with the Marlin, he physically was being destroyed. He had a choice to spare his life and let the fish go but he knew he had to overcome his destruction so he kept at it and caught the fish. And finally, the fight with the sharks was his hardest battle. He was alone, in his own life battle.
