Abstract

Objective: to achieve a maximal level of interdisciplinary approach in teaching the subjects “Bioorganic and Biological Chemistry” and “Medical Biology” with the purpose to improve the level of knowledge and analytical comprehension of metabolic process regularities and peculiarities of their disorders in man.Material and methods. The tasks of the investigation are to design both unidirectional and mobile bidirectional integration patterns of theoretical subjects on the base of common learning topics and processes involving both horizontal and vertical structural disciplinary formations. Cumulative-comparative and logic-analytical analysis of educational curricula and their application in the educational process are necessary from the point of view of practical interdisciplinary integration.Results. Correct and content integration of the educational process in training medical specialists should be based on an integral understanding of the major biological, biochemical, histological and anatomical characteristics of the human body on the whole. Systemic interdisciplinary approach in teaching enables to train specialists with a qualitatively new level of clinical thinking, who are able to evaluate patient’s condition by means of integration of acquired knowledge and skills, results of biochemical, anatomical, clinical and instrumental methods of the research.Conclusions. Implementation of interdisciplinary integration into the educational process in teaching the subjects “Bioorganic and Biological Chemistry” and “Medical Biology” will ensure the formation of both one-sided (Biology-Chemistry) and two-sided (Biology-Chemistry-Biology) interdisciplinary interaction directed to the development of systemic clinical thinking, cognitive activity and independent work. Therefore, none of the educational subjects isolated from others is able to form professional competence of a future medical specialist.

Highlights

  • According to the principles of Bologna process improvement and enhancing the quality of modern medical education in Ukraine is a priority task today ensuring the formation of an integrated educational-scientific space in Europe and increasing a number of competitive specialists in medical field

Summary

Introduction

According to the principles of Bologna process improvement and enhancing the quality of modern medical education in Ukraine is a priority task today ensuring the formation of an integrated educational-scientific space in Europe and increasing a number of competitive specialists in medical field. The issue of interdisciplinary approach in teaching these subjects is topical and perspective as reformation and improvement of up-to-date education assume overcoming isolated teaching of the subjects and elaboration of new educational curricula in which the issues of practical classes are considered as an integral part, but not a separate unit of the educational process It is a guarantee of training an erudite medical specialist with a high level of theoretical knowledge and practical skills able to make substantiated and correct decisions in urgent situations [3,4]
