(1667) THE RESULTS OF ANALYSIS OF DESIGN, STRUCTURING AND IMPLEMENTATION OF PHYSICS COURSE FOR TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY STUDENTS

摘要

The article discusses design, structuring and implementation of physics course that is offered totechnical university students. The achievements in fundamental sciences, in particular physics, areessential for many fields of engineering and cannot be ignored in thorough engineering education. Forthat reason, the multilateral engineering education is very important. At the same time specification ofknowledge is needed due to the strong increase of the information load. However these pointsrepresent two controversial opinions on the role and importance of general physics course forengineering education that ideally has to be integrated in the education programme. This requiresbalancing the course of physics implementing interdisciplinary approach to design the course withrelation to technical and engineering sciences. The mathematics is also of importance, as it is themain apparatus for describing of physical laws and phenomena. Combining the elements of theoreticaland experimental physics is an important methodological problem. The content of the physics coursereflects the diverse nature of the relationship between elements of the system object and itsenvironment (the object of professional activity). The course is implemented by the compositioninteraction and combination of full-scale, virtual and simulation approaches. Tasks are designed andselected for the lab works in accordance with their level of difficulty. They require the knowledge ofdifferent sections of the course and satisfy the principles of the augmented knowledge, practical skillsand competences development.
