“…The implementation of monological utterance, which has been analyzed in many works [106][107][108], involved a three-phase process: Precommunicative, communicative, and postcommunicative stages. Due to the fact that the object of the study was a prepared monological utterance and that the element of spontaneity was automatically excluded from this type of activity, the primary aspect in the process of working on a statement was the planning of its content [109]. A disregard of the basic structure of a monological utterance by students led to difficulties associated with the process of perception, comprehension, and understanding of the spoken utterance toward a break in the two-way auditory channel [110].…”

This article deals with the problem of the culture of professional self-realization of Russian students in the process of university education at the present stage. The role of information and communications technologies is revealed, in particular the interactive technology of self-regulation developed by the authors, as a necessary pedagogical condition for the successful professional self-realization of students. The paper describes the interactive technology of self-regulation formation used in teaching a foreign language in order to improve the educational process. The paper provides an analysis of the current state of the classroom educational environment in teaching a foreign language in order to determine the possibilities of improving the educational process. The main goal of the interactive technology of self-regulation formation is to optimize and intensify the activities of students in the classroom and extracurricular activities. The interactive technology of self-regulation formation in a nonlinguistic university was applied in the proposed work. Special attention was paid to the problem of structuring and the algorithmization of independent work. Ways for increasing interactivity are revealed, and an algorithm for teaching and speech actions in interactive mode was developed. It was established that the introduction of structured algorithmization using the interactive technology of self-regulation formation could be effectively used for teaching poorly prepared students. It has been established that the culture of professional self-actualization for modern students is directly dependent on the quality of online interaction with a university teacher. It was revealed that it is the student's awareness of the objectives of learning interaction and ways for its implementation that allow him to competently perform his academic work, which in turn contributes to the actualization of personal professional qualities that are required by a university graduate for successful implementation in the future.

“…Though RST was developed through the analysis of written texts, it did not exclude that of dialogues as well. Research by Fawcett and Davies [33] focuses on intraturn relations, by regarding a turn within a conversation as a piece of monologue that could be analyzed in the framework of RST. Daradoumis [34] extends this framework to relations to inter-turns.…”

This paper investigates the interface of rhetorical and rhythmic aspects of several Chinese reading discourses within the RST framework. Distributions of rhetorical relations, stress degree and nuclearity in pre-pausal and post-pausal positions are examined in this current research. The RSTTool is used in diagramming the rhetorical structures of three reading texts, Narrative, Expositive and Descriptive respectively. The recordings, extracted from the Annotated Speech Corpus of Chinese Discourse (ASCCD), are further analyzed acoustically and statistically by applying Praat and R. The statistical analysis results show unbalanced distributions of rhetorical relations in different contexts, stress combinations and hierarchies. The examination of nuclearity shows nucleussatellite combination, compared with satellite-nucleus combination, is inclined to extend the pause duration significantly. Based on the results, the study further proposes that distribution of relations, hierarchies, stress degrees and nuclearity are significantly related to pause duration and the intra-distribution of one and another.
