Пояснительная записка

 

Представленный ниже урок-игра проводится в группах 2 курса с целью обобщения и систематизации материала по теме Business contacts. Актуальность темы обусловлена необходимостью приобретения учащимися знаний по тематике  с целью использования иностранного языка в будущей профессиональной деятельности. Это позволяет в определённой степени решить проблему мотивации, создать положительный настрой к изучению английского языка.

Многие преподаватели хорошо знают, насколько легче преподавать предмет тем ученикам, которые осознают его значимость для будущей профессии. Для таких учащихся изучение предмета окрашено личностным смыслом. У обучающихся  появляется мотивация к его изучению. Мотивация является одним из важнейших элементов совершенствования профильно-ориентированного обучения английскому языку. Вообще, иностранный язык, как никакой другой предмет, открыт для использования им различных областей знания, содержания других предметов.

Проблема мотивации особенно важна при отсутствии естественной потребности в коммуникации. Поэтому для преподавателя иностранного языка столь важна заинтересованность учащихся не только и не столько в результатах своего труда, сколько в процессе достижения этого результата.

Деловая игра стимулирует активизацию мышления и способствует созданию оптимальной информационной обстановки, направляя поиск на отбор нужной информации. При подготовке к деловым играм организуется систематическое повторение материала. Учитывая возрастающий интерес молодых людей к внешнеэкономической деятельности и связанному с ней языковому материалу, в качестве примера можно использовать методическую разработку урока-игры « A Visit of the Foreign Delegation to the Design Office».

II. Ход урока:

 

I.                  Введение в ситуацию.

Teacher (T): The theme of our lesson is “A visit of the foreign delegation to the design office”. The employees of the design office: President, Financier, Engineer and Personnel Manager have a press-conference to answer the questions potential customers may have.

А) Пресс-конференция.

     President: Nowadays many countries are interested in building plants and complexes to process their own raw materials. Our design office can do survey, design and constructive work. To throw light upon the activity of our design office and to tell our potential customers about the services our provides, have invited foreign representatives working in our country and journalists from specialized magazines to our press-conference. Ask your questions, ladies and gentlemen.

Возможные вопросы:

- When was your office set up?

- Is it engaged in foreign trade?

- What projects have you done?

- What kinds of work does your office do?

- Is it difficult to run such a big organization?

- What terms of delivery do you prefer?

 - Do your customers often ask you to speed up the delivery?

 - What do you usually discuss with the customers’ specialists?

- Where do you insure your equipment?

Б) Письмо из Англии. (Текст письма предварительно размножен, и его читают все учащиеся.)

President: We  have received a letter from our potential customers from London. Here it is.

Dear Sirs,

Our representative has attended your press-conference in Moscow and we would like to tell you about our problems.

   Metal construction in our country is growing steadily, but we can’t afford to import iron ore or steel products, as there is not enough hard currency. The USA has offered its help, but the interest rate is usually too high and they try to impose their terms and conditions as to how to use the capital they provide as help.

   However, a national goal is to have an independent and self-reliant economy, and the construction of steel plant in the area is one of the means to do it. Russia always offers more favorable terms and conditions and trains the customer’s national specialists. Russian designers can work out drawings of non-standard equipment and carry out geological and geodetic investigations.

    Unfortunately the plant will pollute air, water and soil. Nowadays the demand for “clean” enterprises grows with every year, and need for purifying installations is urgent.

    But such installations make the total construction cost much higher. There is the alternative of locating the plant in the desert area, but it would involve a lot of other problems: road construction, delivery of iron ore to the plant, water and power supply. Besides, the proposed construction site can’t be located near ancient ruins which are protected by the state.

   After the evaluation the iron-ore deposits, it was concluded that the composition of iron doesn’t comprise more than 30%. This means that local iron ore should  be concentrated with a mixture of ore and coke.

   We would like to inform you that our delegation is coming to Moscow to discuss the possibility of establishing business relations with your company.

    Yours faithfully,

     President of  Lebanon Metal Works Ltd.

      В) В проектной организации.

          T: We are at the design office now. We shall discuss our office work and our customer’s problems.

           Образец беседы руководителя иностранной делегации и руководителя проектной организации:

        - Before getting down to business, can you tell us about the range of services your office provides? When was your office set up?

        - Our design office was set up in 1990, but it was a small bureau. In a couple of years it became a full-scale design office. When the firm started, all we did was to design small projects – Feasibility Reports and Detailed Project Reports, basic and detailed engineering, and survey and investigations.

        - What kinds of work do you do now?

        - We expanded to become the country’s leading designer and constructor of projects. On top of that we now offer full engineering services, and consulting for our clients.

     -  Are all your departments located here in these premises?

     - Not all our departments are located here in these premises. This is our Head Office. The branch offices are scattered all over the country.  There are more than ten firms in the business.

     - It’s a job to run this big organization, isn’t it?

     - Yes, it is, but we get together for general meetings and the manager fills us in on the recent policies of the company. The service we offer requires skilled staff. Our specialists are creative and experienced. Can you tell me about your problems?

     - We came to discuss the possibility of constructing a metallurgical plant on local iron-ore.

     - Did you find a suitable   site?

     - Yes, we decided to construct the complex in the populated area. Unfortunately the plant will pollute air, water and soil. Nowadays the demand for  “clean” enterprises is growing every year and the need for purifying installations is urgent. But such installations make the total construction cost much higher. Can you help us to solve our problems?

     - Yes, we do design work, supply complete plants and equipment, and send highly qualified experts to the customer’s country to carry out start-up and adjustment of our equipment. On top of this we supply spare parts and guarantee trouble-free operation of our equipment.

     - Do you construct projects on a turn-key basis ?

     - We construct projects on a turn-key basis– undertake total design, supply and construction. But let’s continue discussing business points tomorrow, shall we? Now we invite you on an excursion about Moscow.

     Г) Экскурсия по Москве.

      Примерные вопросы экскурсоводу:

-         Is Spasskaya the biggest tower of the Kremlin?

-         Which tower of Kremlin is the oldest one?

-         Is Ostankinskaya TV tower taller than any other TV tower in the world?

-         What is the longest street in Moscow?

-         What is the widest street in Moscow?

-         What is the biggest square in Moscow?

           Диалог между инженерами:

-         This way, Mr. … . Make yourself comfortable. Tea or coffee?

-         No, thank you. I’d like to get down to business right away. We are interested in signing a contract with you.

-         That’s nice to hear. Have you any points to discuss?

-         Yes, I must say that we can’t accept FOB terms. Can you deliver your equipment on CIF terms?

-         Yes, we’ve prepared our CIF prices. This problem can be settled.

-         Besides, we’d like you to speed up the delivery.

-         Well, I think we can reduce the delivery period to 9 month.

-         We also ask you to prolong the guarantee period to 18 months.

-         I’m sorry I can’t give the answer now. I can’t promise anything, but I’ll do my best to meet your request.

          Е) Диалог о подготовке специалистов.

Беседуют менеджеры по персоналу.

-         We’ve studied your request and are ready to train a group of 20 engineers from your country.

-         That’s fine. And where are you going to train them?

-         At our plant in St.Petersburg.

-         Good. That’s just what we wanted to ask you about.

-         When would you like us to start training?
