Long term planned research regarding mechanisms of solving problems in foreign language communication should encompass further communication strategies research with the aim of improving of students’ spoken skills in L2.

In communication strategies research it is necessary to explore to what extent strategies are efficient and bring results, as well as the ratio between time and effort invested in completing the assignments. Communication strategies are proven efficient if the interlocutor has correctly interpreted speaker’s communication intention. Communication strategies are also efficient if they demand minimum of effort in processing by both the speaker and interlocutor who tries to give the right interpretation of the meaning.

The research will be conducted among the first year undergraduate students of FESB and conclusions will be based on obtained results.

Further research will be conducted regarding non-verbal elements in intercultural communication, primarily with the aim of proving existence of diversities which can lead to misinterpretation of transmitting and understanding the message sent by the speaker. Time as a non-verbal component will also be considered as it, depending on either monochronic or polychronic culture, obtains different meaning, i.e. importance.

In additional research will be made in the field of literary science, exploring the existence of literary hierarchy among literary genres, especially the relationship between the essay and novel.
