The aim of the work – to demonstrate the ways of quantitative literacy formation and scientific and educational interest among students during the classes of Biophysics with Physical Methods of Analysis.
The main body. The article is devoted to the problem of scientific and educational interest formation among students during the classes of Biophysics with Physical Methods of Analysis. Attention is paid to the effective use of mathematical modeling in scientific researches in Biology, Chemistry, Medicine and Pharmacy. The article outlines the modern descriptive mathematical models of the real biological systems on the example of the content module under the title of Thermodynamics of Biological Processes. It has also been analyzed the unsolved problem of the mathematical description of phase transitions.
Conclusion. In order to raise the students’ scientific and educational interest and improve their level of learning support materials’ understanding in such discipline as Biophysics with Physical Methods of Analysis it is necessary to inform students about the most recent discoveries in this field of knowledge, to pay special attention to the scientific developments of modern scientific mathematical and physical schools, since this is in a considerable degree meant to be a motivating factor for discipline study.
