“…The application of LGD in spoken English training is also the instructional design that motivates students to use English as a project or problem set by a teacher in a simulated situation to reflect their spoken ability, strategies and psychological mechanism through both verbal and non-verbal channels in the process of oral communication (Huffman & Schuhmann, 2015). LGD online oral training based on CLA model emphasizes the use of oral knowledge and oral skills as well as appropriate emotional expression, elaborating coherent, fluent and logical personal views, and listening to others' opinions, accepting others' opinions or persuading others in the form of group discussions to achieve group consensus (Tang & Macdougall, 2015). LGD online oral training based on CLA model was carried out among 105 students from three classes of international hotel management and foreign-related English majors in a university.…”

Traditionally, asynchronous discussion group is used to realize the interaction of online oral English training in university English teaching, which lacks the training process of reading, listening and speaking skills. This paper puts forward a new interactive design method of online oral English training in university English teaching, which integrates reading, listening and speaking skills with the "integrated task" teaching model and closely combines the input and output process. The instructional design and implementation of LGD online oral training based on CLA model are adopted to realize the interaction of online spoken English training in university English teaching. The experimental results show that the proposed method is more direct and efficient in interaction. There is a significant difference between formal practice strategy R1 and R2 (P<0.001) after the proposed method is used in oral English training, which indicates that the proposed method can improve the overall level of university oral English communicative competence and the interaction performance is good.

“…Studies conducted in immigrant-receiving countries report differential rates and patterns of substance use among immigrants and native population, as well as among diverse immigrant groups. This is true of both preimmigration and postimmigration rates of consumption (Galvan & Caetano, 2003; Tang & MacDougall, 2015). It is assumed that immigrants who arrive from different countries bring different inherited norms and values that significantly influence their behavior (Christopoulou & Lillard, 2015).…”

This qualitative study focuses on the unique characteristics of drug abuse among former Soviet Union (FSU) immigrant drug addicts in Israel, as well as on special concerns faced by them during rehabilitation. It is based on in-depth interviews with Russian-speaking recovering addict counselors employed in addiction treatment centers. The findings point to the existence of a distinct "Russian" drug-abuse culture that is expressed through unique patterns of abuse, rapid deterioration, adherence to the "Russian" criminal moral code, and distinct norms of interpersonal relations. Furthermore, a complex relationship between this culture and the rehabilitation process was found, with cultural features having both negative as well as positive effects on patients' chances of successful recovery. A discussion is presented regarding the implications for treatment based on the interviewees' reflections as well as on existing literature.
