CULTURAL VALUES ENCODED IN THE CHILD CONCEPT: A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF ENGLISH AND KARAKALPAK PROVERBS
The concept of CHILD is one of the fundamental cognitive and cultural categories reflected in the linguistic worldview of every nation. Among various linguistic means, proverbs serve as valuable repositories of collective knowledge, preserving traditional beliefs, moral principles, and social norms related to childhood and family life. Despite the growing interest in cognitive linguistics and linguocultural studies, comparative investigations of the CHILD concept in English and Karakalpak proverbial discourse remain limited. This study explores the cultural values encoded in English and Karakalpak proverbs that verbalize the concept of CHILD. The research adopts a qualitative comparative approach based on cognitive linguistics, linguoculturology, and paremiology. The analysis reveals that both linguistic traditions conceptualize children as the continuation of the family and the future of society; however, the underlying cultural values differ. English proverbs predominantly emphasize individuality, personal responsibility, and practical wisdom, whereas Karakalpak proverbs highlight collective identity, respect for elders, and family continuity. The findings demonstrate that proverbs function not only as linguistic expressions but also as cognitive mechanisms transmitting national cultural values across generations.

CCPS-R MODEL AS AN INTEGRATIVE FRAMEWORK FOR CRITICAL THINKING DEVELOPMENT IN PRE-SERVICE EFL TEACHER EDUCATION
The development of critical thinking competency in pre-service English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers has become one of the defining challenges of contemporary teacher education. Despite its theoretical prominence in global educational discourse, critical thinking instruction in EFL teacher preparation programmes in Uzbekistan remains fragmented, methodologically inconsistent, and insufficiently grounded in empirically validated pedagogical frameworks. Single-method approaches fail to address the multi-dimensional nature of critical thinking competency, which encompasses analytical, evaluative, metacognitive, and dialogic capacities simultaneously. The CCPS-R model — Critical-Collaborative Project Spiral with Reflective Writing — was developed in response to this gap. This paper presents the model’s theoretical rationale, structural architecture, and pedagogical implications for pre-service EFL teacher education in Uzbekistan.

MODERN DIGITAL TOOLS IN HUMAN ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY EDUCATION
The rapid development of digital technologies has significantly transformed higher education, particularly in disciplines requiring visualization and practical application of complex scientific concepts. Human anatomy and physiology represent core biological sciences that demand comprehensive understanding of structural organization and physiological processes. Traditional teaching methods, while remaining valuable, often fail to provide sufficient visualization and interactive learning opportunities necessary for mastering these subjects. Modern digital tools, including learning management systems, virtual laboratories, three-dimensional anatomical models, multimedia resources, and online assessment platforms, offer new possibilities for improving educational quality and student engagement. The purpose of this study is to analyze the educational effectiveness of modern digital technologies in teaching human anatomy and physiology and to identify their contribution to knowledge acquisition, practical competence, and digital literacy. A comparative pedagogical approach was applied involving undergraduate students studying biological sciences. Learning outcomes were evaluated through knowledge assessment, observation of practical skills, and analysis of student engagement. The findings demonstrate that the integration of digital educational tools enhances students’ academic performance, promotes active learning, improves visualization of anatomical structures, and supports the development of independent learning skills. Furthermore, digital technologies contribute to increased motivation and prepare future biology teachers for professional activities in a technology-rich educational environment.
INTEGRATING PODCASTS INTO ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHING: A MODERN APPROACH TO ORAL SKILL DEVELOPMENT
The development of oral communication skills remains one of the most important objectives of English language teaching. However, many learners experience difficulties in speaking due to limited exposure to authentic language input and insufficient opportunities for meaningful interaction. Recent technological advances have introduced podcasts as an effective educational resource capable of supporting language learning both inside and outside the classroom. This study investigates the effectiveness of podcast integration in English language teaching for developing students’ oral skills. Using a quasi-experimental design, the research was conducted among high school students studying English as a foreign language. Data were collected through pre-tests, post-tests, classroom observations, and student questionnaires. The findings indicate that podcast-based instruction positively influences learners’ pronunciation, fluency, vocabulary usage, and confidence in speaking. The study concludes that podcasts provide authentic linguistic input and create favorable conditions for oral skill development. Therefore, podcast integration can be considered an effective modern approach in English language teaching.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF HORTICULTURE AND THE ROLE OF FRUIT VARIETIES IN THE AGRICULTURE OF THE BUKHARA EMIRATE IN THE LATE NINETEENTH AND EARLY TWENTIETH CENTURIES
The late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries witnessed significant changes in agrarian relations within the territory of the Bukhara Emirate. Under the economic influence of the Russian Empire, the cultivation of export-oriented agricultural products expanded throughout the region. In particular, cotton growing, horticulture, viticulture, and melon cultivation developed considerably. The introduction of new crop and fruit varieties was closely connected with the demands of both domestic and foreign trade.
Throughout the development of mankind, language and culture have been closely related to each other. Language is not only a means of communication, but also a social phenomenon that reflects the thinking, worldview, values, and history of the people. Culture, on the other hand, is manifested through the life, lifestyle, customs, art, moral standards, and so on of members of society. This article discusses the interrelationship between language and culture, their role in the life of society, and their mutual influence.
