Course content
In the modern sense, science is a field of intellectual human activity aimed at finding true knowledge about the world around us, systematizing the information received, developing methods of interaction with the world and the possibility of predicting its variability; building a scientific image of the world. Also, science is a special way of knowing the world. In a broader sense, science is a dynamic system or a set of objectively true sectoral knowledge and a social institution. The main concepts of science are: object of science; subject of science; theories; laws; research methods; paradigms; concepts. A scientific picture (scientific image) of the world is: a special form of systematization of knowledge obtained in various fields of science, a set of human ideas about the properties and laws of reality, built as a result of generalization and synthesis of scientific concepts and principles, a set of information about the relationship of man with reality, with nature, society, other people, ideas about the general laws of the universe. The main research methods used in science are: empirical, based on real experiments, and theoretical, based on methods of idealization, the transition from the abstract to the concrete. The results of scientific research can be divided into: fundamental (sometimes called "pure"), in which the world is known without regard to the practical use of the knowledge gained, and applied, which is focused on practice, applying the knowledge gained in fundamental research of it.

Assessment methods and criteria
The course includes 3 content modules. All learning outcomes are assessed systematically throughout the semester, in accordance with the thematic plan of lectures. Based on the chosen topic of the second module, students create an essay for a popular science film and submit it for review (approximately by April 15). At the end of each module, module tests with test tasks and open questions are conducted (approximately on the 7th and 15th academic weeks of the semester); the points for the ICR are added to the sum of points for the MA. The sum of points for all MA is calculated on the principle of accumulation: maximum 100 points, minimum 60 points. Assessment of semester work: 1. Module test №1: 15 - 25 points. 2. Module test № 2: 15 - 25 points. 3. Practical work: 15 - 25 points. 4. Module test № 3: 15 - 25 points.
