FEATURES OF STUDYING ORGANIC CHEMISTRY USING THE EXAMPLE OF THE ANTHRAQUINONE CLASS OF COMPOUNDS

Abstract

In our time, the issue of activating students' cognitive activity in the educational process is the most important. This, in our opinion, is due to the development of technologies in the field of communication, which allow transferring knowledge from one medium to another without their understanding; modern computer programs that perform tasks of any complexity, thereby gradually losing the ability to independently solve problems; the introduction of elements of distance learning into the educational process in the form of online lectures, exams on Internet platforms, etc., which, in many cases, leads to a lack of enthusiasm for learning. The study of organic chemistry in a higher educational institution is a certain problem for students. This is due to the large amount of theoretical material, the variety of new concepts, formulas, nomenclature and their connection. The purpose of the study is to develop and implement active learning methods in the educational process of students of the specialties "Secondary Education (Chemistry)" and "Secondary Education (Natural Sciences)" of knowledge about the class of anthraquinone compounds in the subject "Organic Chemistry": work in small groups, team learning, etc. Research methods: analysis of scientific and methodological literature, comparative analysis of formative and summative assessment, pedagogical experiment, as well as analysis of the obtained data. Research results: methodological recommendations for teachers of organic chemistry on active teaching methods have been developed. The goals, objectives and basic methodological principles of implementing problem-oriented and team-oriented teaching methods are described. Situational tasks for practical classes and criteria for evaluating all students' actions when studying organic chemistry, in particular the class of anthraquinone compounds, are given. The conclusions of the study are devoted to the implementation of active methods in the educational process, work in small groups, team-oriented learning. Therefore, in the course "Organic Chemistry" such an organization of the educational process would encourage the student to work on the course regularly and contribute to the formation of a conscious systemic quality of knowledge and creative thinking.
