Item Open Access PECULIARITIES OF EDUCATIONAL DISCOURSE(SDU University, 2023) Zhaksybayeva A.This article delves into the intricate world of educational discourse, highlighting its multifaceted nature and pivotal role in contemporary education. Educational discourse encompasses a broad range of conversations, debates, and discussions surrounding education, spanning topics such as pedagogy, educational policies, sociocultural issues, and more. Drawing from various disciplines like psychology, sociology, philosophy, linguistics, and beyond, it offers a comprehensive understanding of the intricacies of modern education. The article explores the practical applications of educational discourse, providing evidence from studies that demonstrate how meaningful dialogues, including Socratic questioning and dialogic interactions, enhance learning outcomes and critical thinking skills. This article employs a mixed- methods research approach to examine the impact of educational discourse on various aspects of education. The qualitative component involves in-depth case studies, such as the exploration of dialogic interactions in science education. These case studies employ qualitative data collection methods, including participant observations, interviews, and content analysis of educational discourse.Item Open Access CODE-SWITCHING IN DIALOGUES AMONG YOUNG INDIVIDUALS FROM KAZAKHSTAN(SDU University, 2023) Myrzabek A.; Amangazina A.; Moldagaliyeva I.This research investigates the varieties and communicative purposes of codeswitching (CS) among the youth demographic in Kazakhstan. Centered around specific research questions, the researchers investigate the complex dynamics of CS within Kazakhstan's bilingual environment. Four young individuals studying abroad participated in a focus group interview, and the results showed a range of code-switching occurrences, from intra-sentential to tag-switching, and differing levels of ability to switch codes. There are various reasons why people switch codes, such as habit or choosing the best language for a conversation. Findings were discussed with a focus on the expressive and referential functions observed among young Kazakh adults. The comfort level of speakers in a given language and audience familiarity are factors that affect code- switching. The paper acknowledges its limits and proposes directions for future investigation, promoting the examination of other factors that may impact code - switching among young Kazakh adults.Item Open Access THEORETICAL AND METHODOLOGICAL REGULATORS OF THE PROBLEM OF DUAL EDUCATION FACILITATION IN THE SYSTEM OF HIGHER PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION(SDU University, 2023) Baimukhambetova B.; Radchenko N.The article is devoted to the study of the possibilities of using facilitation technology to improve the quality of dual education, the implementation of which in the system of higher professional education is experiencing serious difficulties. On the basis of the research it is concluded that the organisation and implementation of dual education requires strategies that help to meet the interests and needs of all subjects of the educational process. At the same time, the potential of facilitation technology in improving the quality of dual education in pedagogical science is not disclosed. In this regard, the aim of the study is: to determine the theoretical and methodological regulators of the problem of dual education facilitation in the system of higher professional education. To achieve this goal, the methods of theoretical analysis of scientific literature on the problem of dual education and expert assessment of international practical experience of using facilitation technology in the educational segment were used. As a result, the concept of "dual education facilitation" is clarified, theoretical and methodological approaches to dual education facilitation are defined, the main stages and methods of dual education facilitation are identified. The scientific significance of the research is related to the expediency of revising the existingapproaches to the implementation of dual education in universities and filling it with new content on the basis of facilitation technology, taking into account the new requirements of the labour market. Determination of theoretical and methodological regulators of the problem of dual education facilitation in the system of higher professional education will allow avoiding errors in the organisation and practical implementation of this process.Item Open Access EFL TEACHERS’ PERCEPTIONS OF LESSON STUDY IMPLEMENTATION IN SECONDARY RURAL SCHOOLS THROUGH THE INTERDISCIPLINARY APPROACH(SDU University, 2023) Ichshanova Zh.; Kassymova G.Lesson study approach is widely used in various countries to develop teachers’ pedagogical and instructional knowledge.

Five EFL teachers from a secondary rural school who were the members of the interdisciplinary group of the Lesson Study participated in semi-structured interviews. The respondents indicated that the Lesson Study through the interdisciplinary approach had significantly improved their pedagogical and instructional knowledge. However, they also indicated that they experienced some challenges in the process, such as time consumption, observation of case students, and support from the administration of school.
