The aim of the work – to draw attention of the lecturers in Physical and Colloid Chemistry to the proper choice of means of impartial assessment of the quality of learning the program material by the students of various forms of training.
The main body. Analysis of the literature and own long-term experience of teaching Physical and Colloid Chemistry have been carried out in order to choose optimal methods and forms of controlling the acquired knowledge by prospective practitioners in the field of pharmacy who study various specialties.
Decrease of the number of auditorium hours devoted to the study of fundamental disciplines including Physical and Colloid Chemistry necessitates the lecturer to propose to the students some part of the program material for the self-study. This requires the correct choice of the means of students’ knowledge control. The role of multiple-choice and complex tasks in the organization of control measures aimed at checking the quality of learning by the students of the program material in Physical and Colloid Chemistry is analyzed in the article.
Conclusions. 1. Solving multiple-choice and complex tasks essentially broadens the possibilities of impartial and thorough control of knowledge, abilities and skills acquired by the students. It should be necessarily combined with other forms of control like testing, recitation, reports and essays preparation for the students’ conference. 2. Solving specialized multiple-choice and complex tasks the lecturer has a possibility to emphasize interdisciplinary integration and students – to better understand the necessity of studying Physical and Colloid Chemistry for further mastering medical-biological and specialized disciplines. 3. The advantage of using multiple-choice tasks in the training process consists in a possibility for the lecturer to give each student an individual problem in certain topic. Such problems can also be used as a means of controlling the quality of education.References
