Abstract:
The paper deals with the aspects of English communicative pattern implementation into IT professional training. It is emphasized that the communicative pattern usage enhances prompt and fluent profession-related real-life communication and it is the essential part of education of IT specialists. Peculiarities of communication in the IT environment are highlighted. Considering typical situations and issues of communication the guidebook which contains recommendations and communicative patterns for IT undergraduates both for oral and written communication has been developed. In order to evaluate the purposefulness of the guidebook implementation in IT specialist training, two surveys (among lecturers and among undergraduates) of six universities have been conducted. The guidebook has proved to be suitable for practical classes, independent learning and laboratory works in humanities and profession-related disciplines. The survey conducted among English teachers has proved the increased interest, higher motivation and willingness to participate in communicative tasks crucial for specific employment.
