control measuring materials
the unified state exam 2017 in BIOLOGY

1. Purpose of KIM USE

The Unified State Exam (hereinafter - the Unified State Exam) is a form of objective assessment of the quality of training of persons who have mastered educational programs of secondary general education, using tasks of a standardized form (control measurement materials).

The Unified State Exam is conducted in accordance with Federal Law No. 273-FZ of December 29, 2012 “On Education in the Russian Federation”.

Control measuring materials allow to establish the level of mastering by graduates of the Federal component of the state standard of secondary (complete) general education in biology, basic and specialized level.

The results of the unified state examination in biology are recognized by educational organizations of secondary vocational education and educational institutions of higher
vocational education as the results of entrance examinations in biology.

2. Documents defining the content of the KIM USE

3. Approaches to the selection of content, the development of the structure of the KIM USE

The basis for the development of the CIM USE is the invariant core of the content of biological education, which is reflected in the Federal component of the state standard for secondary (complete) general education, various exemplary programs and textbooks recommended by the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia for use in the implementation of state-accredited educational programs of secondary general education in biology.
KIM USE examines the mastery of the knowledge and skills of the main sections of the course of biology: "Plants", "Bacteria. Mushrooms. Lichens ”,“ Animals ”,“ Man and his health ”,“ General biology ”. This allows you to check the main content of the course, to ensure the meaningful validity of the CMM. The content of the KIM USE does not go beyond the course of secondary school biology and does not depend on which program and which textbook is taught in a particular educational organization.

In the examination work, tasks for the section "General biology" prevail, since it integrates and generalizes the factual knowledge gained in basic school, considers general biological laws that manifest themselves at different levels of organization of living nature. These include: cellular, chromosomal, evolutionary theories; laws of heredity and variability; ecological patterns of biosphere development.

Tasks that control the degree of mastery of knowledge and skills cover the most significant issues of the content of the course in biology and check the graduates' development of a scientific worldview and biological competence.

4. The structure of the KIM USE

Each version of the CMM examination paper contains 28 tasks and consists of two parts, differing in form and level of complexity. Part 1 contains 21 tasks:

7 - with multiple choice with or without a picture;
6 - to establish compliance with a drawing or without it;
3 - to establish the sequence of systematic taxa, biological objects, processes, phenomena;
2 - to solve biological problems in cytology and genetics;
1 - to add missing information in the scheme;
1 - to add missing information in the table;
1 - for the analysis of information presented in graphical or tabular form.

The answer to the tasks of Part 1 is given by the corresponding entry in the form of a word (phrase), number or a sequence of numbers written without spaces and separating symbols.

Part 2 contains 7 tasks with a detailed answer. In these tasks, the answer is formulated and written down by the examinee independently in an expanded form. The tasks of this part of the work are aimed at identifying graduates with a high level of biological training.

In part 1, tasks 1-21 are grouped according to meaningful blocks presented in the codifier, which provides a more accessible
perception of information. In part 2, tasks are grouped according to the types of educational activities being tested and in accordance with thematic affiliation.

The exam in biology is a selective exam and it will be taken by those who are confident in their knowledge. The Unified State Exam in Biology is considered a difficult subject, since the knowledge accumulated over the years of study is tested.

USE assignments in biology, different types were selected, to solve them, you need confident knowledge of the main topics of the school biology course. On the basis of the teachers developed over 10 test tasks for each topic.

See the topics that need to be studied when completing assignments from FIPI. Each task has its own algorithm of actions that will help in solving problems.

Changes in the KIM USE 2019 in biology:

• The model of the task in line 2 was changed. Instead of the task with multiple choice for 2 points, the task for working with a table for 1 point was included.
• The maximum primary score decreased by 1 and amounted to 58 points.

The structure of the tasks for the exam in biology:

• Part 1 - these are tasks from 1 to 21 with a short answer, about 5 minutes are given to complete.

Advice: read the wording of the questions carefully.

• Part 2 - these are tasks from 22 to 28 with a detailed answer, approximately 10-20 minutes are allotted to complete.

Advice: express your thoughts in literature, answer the question in detail and comprehensively, give a definition of biological terms, even if this is not required in the assignments. The answer should have a plan, not write in solid text, but highlight points.

What is required of the student for the exam?

• Ability to work with graphic information (diagrams, graphs, tables) - its analysis and use;
• Multiple choice;
• Establishing compliance;
• Sequencing.

Points for each task in the biology of the exam

In order to get the highest grade in biology, you need to score 58 primary points, which will be translated into one hundred on a scale.

• 1 point - for 1, 2, 3, 6 tasks.
• 2 points - 4, 5, 7-22.
• 3 points - 23-28.

How to Prepare for Biology Test Items

1. Repetition of the theory.
2. Correct allocation of time for each task.
3. Solving practical problems several times.
4. Checking the level of knowledge by solving tests online.

Register, practice and get a high score!

Biology is a fairly broad area of \u200b\u200bknowledge that includes structure and various processes, both in humans and in animals and plants. In this regard, in order to successfully overcome the final exam, it is necessary to have a wide range of knowledge. Given that the structure of organisms different types and classes are similar, they also have differences that must be remembered exactly when answering test questions. Due to this complexity of the exam in biology, it is necessary to prepare even more carefully.

Ways to prepare for the exam in biology

There are many ways to prepare for any exam. Only linguistic technical and humanitarian subjects differ from each other. But the main directions of training are preserved. So the USE in biology should fall out of the general course of preparation for the unified exam. It is necessary to take a comprehensive approach to this issue.

Do not forget about schoolwork... In general, the school can prepare a child well for the exam. It all depends on his abilities, memory and psyche. Therefore, you should not write off the school when preparing for a difficult exam in biology.

When choosing training courses toIt is worth paying attention to the reviews and the lifetime of the office. If courses have just opened, then they have less experience and are likely to be scammed or shut down halfway through preparation. But you can turn to young courses for preparing for the exam if they are lured by low prices and they have no prepayment. But nevertheless, talk carefully with the teachers and decide: can they prepare you for the Unified State Exam. On uSE results it is not worth saving, but you cannot completely abandon the services of young specialists. The main thing is not to waste your funds.

Biology tutors will be able to improve the level of knowledge, including help to prepare for the Unified State Exam. But choosing a tutor should be more careful than training courses. The courses are government licensed and audited, while private tutoring is open to anyone. So look for reviews and recommendations before you start paying such a specialist. After all, your time is limited, and you shouldn't waste it. So it's better to spend a couple of days looking for a good specialist than dealing with someone who cannot teach important things.

Trial online examinations in biology

Changes in the exam in biology in 2017

Posted on 10.09.2016 by Boris Sadykov

Hello dear readers of the biology tutor's blog via Skype.

Finally, I had the opportunity to give an intelligible answer to your many questions about the changes in the USE in biology in 2017.

Rumors have been circulating for a long time that “a significant innovation for 11th grade graduates will be the rejection of the TEST form of the final exam assignments in three disciplines: physics, chemistry, biology. This major change in the format of exams is due to an attempt to reduce the possibility of intuitively guessing the correct answer. "

Yes, there are very absurd rumors that the test part will allegedly be removed.

Was the USE bad in its previous form?

Rumors were supported by the fact that from the very inception of the Unified State Exam, as a form of attestation of students, which allows, according to the results of passing the Unified State Exam, to be enrolled in a university, this form of exam was criticized for the fact that it, allegedly, would not be able to ensure the normal acquisition of knowledge, leading only to "training »To memorize, not understand the material.

But only those who had never taught at school or at a university could think so. Exam in uSE form from the very beginning, in addition to the test parts (), which are necessary to test students' knowledge of a huge terminological base, it also included ( priced three times more expensive than part A).

Therefore, no matter how much space the tests of part A took in the examination work, the points obtained by simply guessing the correct answer (and the chance of guessing is quite large - 25%), still not enough even to pass the barrier for three.

Federal Institute for Pedagogical Measurements (FIPI) dispels all rumors

On August 26, 2016 FIPI at its official website published projectsdocuments regulating the structure and content of control measuring materials of the USE in 2017.

We look Codifier... It doesn't have any. To prepare well for the exam, it is necessary, as before, to study biology comprehensively in the following 7 blocks:

First block “Biology as a Science. Methods of Scientific Cognition ”controls the material on the achievements of biology, research methods, on the main levels of organization of living nature.

Second block "Cell like biological system»Contains tasks that test: knowledge of the structure, life and diversity of cells; the ability to establish the relationship between the structure and functions of cell organelles, to recognize and compare cells of different organisms, the processes taking place in them.

Third block "An organism as a biological system" controls the assimilation of knowledge about the laws of heredity and variability, about ontogeny and reproduction of organisms, about the selection of organisms
and biotechnology, and also reveals the level of mastering the skills to apply biological knowledge in solving problems in genetics.

In the fourth the block "System and diversity of the organic world" is tested: knowledge of the diversity, structure, life and reproduction of organisms of various kingdoms of living nature and viruses;
the ability to compare organisms, to characterize and determine their belonging to a certain systematic taxon.

Fifth block "The human body and its health" is aimed at determining the level of development of the system of knowledge about the structure and life of the human body.

To the sixth block "Evolution of living nature" includes tasks aimed at monitoring: knowledge about the species, driving forces, directions and results of the evolution of the organic world; the ability to explain the main aromorphoses in the evolution of the plant and animal world, to establish the relationship between the driving forces and the results of evolution.

Seventh block "Ecosystems and their inherent patterns" contains tasks aimed at testing: knowledge about ecological patterns, about the circulation of substances in the biosphere; the ability to establish the relationship of organisms in ecosystems, to identify the causes of resistance,
self-development and change of ecosystems.

But there are indeed quite significant changes in the 2017 CMM compared to the 2016 CMM ( see Demos, specifications, USE 2017 codifiers. Biology)

These changes mainly relate to the optimization of the structure of the examination work itself. :

1. Excluded tasks in the form of one digit corresponding to the number of the correct answer.
2. The total number of tasks has been reduced from 40 to 28.
3. The maximum primary score has been reduced from 61 to 59.
4. The duration of the examination work was increased from 180 to 210 minutes.
5. Part 1 includes new types of tasks that differ significantly in types training activities: filling in the missing elements of a diagram or table, finding the correct designations in a figure, analyzing and synthesizing information, including information presented in the form of graphs, diagrams and tables with statistical data.

The new structure of the KIM USE in 2017

Thus, each version of the CMM examination paper now contains a total of 28 tasks and consists of 2 parts, differing in shape and level of difficulty.

Part 1 contains 21 tasks:

Most tasks (7 tasks), as before, with a choice of ready-made answers... This is what was previously part of A... Only now students are asked to choose not 1 correct answer out of 4 proposed, but 2-3 answers out of 5-7 suggested.

Here, in fact, this is where the whole “cheese boron” “lies” about rumors about the elimination of the test part from the exams. Reduced and changed, as we can see, only the former part A... The test items previously related to the part IN, became even more:

6 tasks - to establish compliance;
3 tasks - to establish the sequence of biological processes, phenomena, objects, systematic taxa;
2 tasks - to solve biological problems in cytology and genetics;
1 task - to supplement the missing information in the scheme;
1 task - to supplement the missing information in the table;
1 task - to analyze information presented in graphical or tabular form ((these last three types of tasks are completely new for the USE, therefore, special attention should be paid to the ways of answering them to students and tutors in biology).

You should be very, very scrupulous in filling out the answer forms for the examination work of Part 1 (do not leave the cells skipped), since this test part of the work, as before, is assessed by a "ruthless" computer.

Part 2 contains 7 tasks with a detailed answer.

In these tasks, as before, the answer is formulated and written down by the examinee independently in an expanded form. The tasks of this part of the work are essentially aimed at identifying biological talents - graduates with a very high level of biological training.

The table below shows how the assignments from the various blocks of the Codifier are distributed in the examination paper in Part 1 and Part 2.

As you can see, all sections of biology in Part 1 and in Part 2 of any version of the examination paper should be distributed equally. That is, there should be no "distortions" in terms of the fact that in some version there would be, for example, a lot of botany, and in another, a lot of human biology.

The table below shows the maximum number of primary points that can now be obtained for the first and second parts of the examination paper.

We see, as before, students have the opportunity to receive b aboutthe largest share in the assessment (66%) is for test part of the work (this is in answer to the question that the tests will be canceled from 2017).

conclusions

The strategy itself is in preparation with passing the exam in biology in 2017 should. Learn biology from various school textbooks and reference materials is necessary within the same basic 7 sections of the Codifier.

Since the test part of the examination work has undergone significant changes, now, "without delaying", you should carefully study Demo version of KIM USE 2017 of the year. Pay special attention to the correctness of filling out the answer forms for the tasks presented in the new form.

In general, I can state that it will be much more difficult to pass the biology exam in 2017 than before (the opportunity to get completely "free" points for a simple guess has disappeared). It will be more difficult to achieve both the minimum threshold and the maximum number of points. But, the main thing is that the variants of examination papers themselves in terms of complexity do not differ much from each other, so that all applicants are put on approximately equal conditions.
