Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

In this article the authors analyse their educational study findings on bringing Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) frameworks into an educational environment and English teaching classes in particular. Treatment of critical discourse analysis as a set of approaches to decide issues related to the language and society interaction has been increased. The goal of this study was to design a teaching model for developing undergraduate students’ critical thinking and discourse analysis skills. This paper attempts to introduce the pedagogical model and techniques based on the Dimensional Model of Discourse to develop CDA in English for specific purposes (ESP) classrooms at Kazakh Ablai Khan University of International Relations and World Languages.
