Assessment of general and professional competences formation level by bachelors studying of specialty 101 Ecology
Abstract
The study compared the level of competencies in students after the third and the forth years of study. The categories "excellent", "good", "satisfactory" and "not mastered" were used for evaluation. It is established that the general competencies of graduates, in contrast to the third-year students are considered to be "good" and "excellent", which was influenced by industrial practice. There are three groups of professional competencies by level of change and general formation. The first group is a block of theoretical competencies that are formed during first three years of study and the level of knowledge in both groups of respondents is almost the same. The second group-competencies are rated by graduated lower than by the third-year students. The reason is the internship, during which students realized the low level of preparation for the practical work. The third one is the competencies that raised self-esteem after the internship. Ways to solve each problem situation are suggested.
Conclusions. The formation of general competencies in students of both years fo study is good, except for competencies related to learning a foreign language, which can be changed by increasing motivation to learn languages. Different formation of professional competencies encourages changes in the Education-and-professional programme and the addition of work programs with topics that focus on future professional work, as well as stimulating extracurricular activities.
