Course content
This academic discipline
is devoted to the study of current geo-ecological problems and features
functioning of geoecosystems affected by economic and other human
human activity, causes of their occurrence, principles and modern methods used to solve them, as well as the formation of skills and
used to solve them, as well as the formation of skills and abilities to
solving basic geo-environmental problems in the plane of the subject area
knowledge of Earth sciences. The discipline "Geoecology" is aimed at deepening
theoretical geoecological knowledge, the formation of students' special
professional, social and personal competencies, accumulation of knowledge about the possibility of critical thinking, analysis and synthesis, the ability to search, process and analyze information from various sources, the ability to identify, formulate and
solve problems in the field of geoecology.
Separate components of the discipline are the study of the principles and methods of
increasing the sustainability and sustainable development of geoecosystems; ways to management of environmental processes in geoecosystems; principles of rational use and protection of geoecosystem components from the impact of
adverse anthropogenic and technogenic factors; methods of research
consequences of adverse impacts on geoecosystems.
The functional block of the discipline involves mastering the following
components, such as the ability to apply basic knowledge of natural sciences and
information technology in design and planning activities, the ability to
apply quantitative and qualitative methods of geoecosystems research, ability to
to independently investigate, analyze spatial and temporal changes in geo-ecosystems for for the purposes of rational nature management and nature protection.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods
Lectures, practical
Assessment methods and criteria
Control is carried out by a modular rating system. In the course
there are 2 content parts. Classes are conducted in the form of lectures and
practical. The discipline ends with a test.
- Semester assessment: the number of points that a student receives during the
semester is the sum of the points obtained during the evaluation of
practical works, surveys and writing module tests.
Organization of evaluation: surveys in test and written form
is conducted after the completion of each topic. Practical works
are defended upon completion, in accordance with the schedule of practical
classes.
Modular control works (MCW) are conducted in test form. Students
who received less than the minimum number of points for the MCW
have to retake it.
