Innovative Language Training Course ILAN is intended for three groups of learners: students, teachers of technical disciplines, and administrative staff of engineering universities. The series is designed for further development of the communicative competence acquired during previous compulsory English training. The course can be used for additional (extended) education as an element of lifelong foreign language training of specialists. The main goal of the series is to train learners to use international English to promote academic mobility in higher technical education in Europe.
  ILAN course consists of three Foreign Language Curricula, Coursebook, Learner's Guide, Role Play �International Conference�, Teacher's Guide, and Multimedia Toolkit.
  The Coursebook is the core textbook of the set of teaching materials. It contains common modules for the three groups of learners and consists of Contents Map, Units, Vocabulary, Appendices, and References. Each unit contains the sections: Reading, Glossary, Listening (Listening to a Mini Lecture, Listening to a Conversation), Speaking, Writing, and Bridging the Cultural Gap.
Learner's Guide consists of three main parts: English for Students, English for Lecturers, and English for Administrators. Each part contains modules specific only for one target group.
  The Role Play is the integral part of the set of teaching materials, is aimed at the three groups of learners and is used at the final stage of the training course. It is simulating the international conference �Towards Global Education � Forward or Backward?�. The play gives the opportunity to evaluate integrated skills acquired by the target groups and by each individual learner.
  Teacher's Guide contains methodical materials for English language teachers: the concept of ILAN course, necessary recommendations, texts for listening, keys to the tasks, etc.
  Multimedia Toolkit consists of 6 units with identical structure. Every unit includes the following sections: Reading, Listening, Writing, and Culture. The sections of Multimedia Toolkit are accompanied by video, audio, and interactive tests for control and self-testing of acquired knowledge. In addition, Multimedia Toolkit includes Glossary of key terms, accompanied by sound. Application of up-to-date multimedia technology in this course makes the study process more interesting and increases its efficiency.
