Sažetak
This paper presents the results of the research conducted at the English language course of the students of Polytechnic of Međimurje in Čakovec, Croatia. The purpose of the research was to introduce the method of students' presentations in foreign language teaching, as well as the topics related to the culture and civilization of the English speaking countries. After the introductory lectures on how the presentation on the given topic in the English language should be prepared, and after the presentations were delivered by the students during one semester, the results of the questionnaires which the students had to solve at the beginning and the end of the semester, were compared. The goal of the research was to examine the extent in which the students acquired the contents presented to them in such a way. The obtained results are satisfactory, although they have not fully met the expectations. However, if the problems and flaws are identified and addressed, the method can be further improved and better results achieved, both regarding the foreign language competencies, as well as multicultural awareness of young people.
