RESEARCH OF THE TEACHING EFFICIENCY THE SECTION "THERMAL TRAUMA" USING INTERACTIVE TECHNOLOGIES

The goal of research is the formation of educational community of students who have been certain skills and ready to acquire new knowledge in the process of communicating with each other, joint cognitive activity through the use of interactive technologies - the method of cooperative groups. This method is used to search for common features in different schemes of medical care for patients with burns. The study involved 8 student groups of the 3rd year of the Faculty of Medicine, State Medical University, Dnipro. The total number is 79 students aged 20-21 years, of which 26 are men and 53 are women. The lesson was divided into three stages. At first stage teacher divided the students into four groups and gave an assignment to each group. On second one, each group announced the result and presented it in a unified form. After discussion the exact decision was made regarding the general features of first aid, treatment and creation of an algorithm of actions. At third stage the groups exchanged the results of previous clinical experience, summing up and solving situational tasks an third-level tests. The teacher assessed each student according to the developed assessment criteria (on a five-point system). Each grade consisted of the sum of points of correct answers obtained when solving complex situational tasks (tests) - the maximum number of points = 80% of the total grade. Also students have got bonuses for leadership qualities (5 points); sociability (5 points); oratory (5 points); ability to defend convincingly their point of view (5 points); teaming work (5 points). Each student could receive maximum of 100 points. When processing results of study, the methods of descriptive analysis were used to calculate the mean values and standard deviation of trust-distrust indicators, correlation-regression analysis of them. The method of cooperative groups allows to increase the students motivation for learning, determines more effective and deep assimilation of the material, develops clinical thinking capacity and sense of need for collective cooperation with responsibility and promotion in favor of personal future doctor qualities.
