Module-rating technology for teaching mathematics in technical institution
A relatively new area in pedagogy is to create a pedagogical technique aimed at individualization of teaching and obtaining mobile knowledge. One of such technologies, combining elements of classical approach and new forms of learning and control, is the module-rating teaching technology. The article presents the essence and principles of module education, the essence of the rating assessment system, stages of the development and application of module-rating technology. Main components of the structure of teacher's activity have been analyzed in the article. The experience of implementing the module-rating technology into students' teaching in technical institution has also been described. The authors of the article have identified the main stages of the teacher's activity to develop and apply the module-rating technology for teaching mathematics; structural components have been developed for each stage; testing materials of module-rating teaching technology and the system for assessing students' academic results have been presented; criteria and levels of assessing students' academic results based on the individual cognitive needs and students' abilities have been developed for each module.The article also describes the experience of using module-rating teaching technology by the teachers of the Department of Mathematics of Irkutsk State Transport University and the comparative analysis of students' academic results in control and experimental groups has also been shown in the article. The results of the experiment have been presented at the end of the article.
