Goal
  • The purpose of the course "Fundamentals of ecology and life safety" is to form the basis of environmental knowledge, which is the theoretical Foundation of all environmental measures, including measures to ensure environmental safety of people, preserve their health, greening consciousness and education of environmental culture, allowing future specialists to use environmental knowledge and knowledge on life safety
Objective
  • The main laws that determine the interaction of living organisms with the environment; - laws of energy flow through living systems and the circulation of substances, the functioning of ecological systems and the biosphere as a whole; - basic principles of nature protection and rational nature management; - socio-ecological consequences of anthropogenic activities; - the concept, strategies, problems of sustainable development and practical approaches to their solution at the global, regional and local levels. - main technospheric and Pro-natural hazards, their properties and characteristics; - the nature of the impact of harmful and dangerous factors of production on humans and the natural environment, methods of protection against them; - legislation and legal acts in the field of life safety, methods and technologies of protection in emergency situations; - means and methods of improving the safety and stability of production facilities, technical means and technological processes.
Learning outcome: knowledge and understanding
  • Identification and analysis of natural and anthropogenic environmental processes and possible ways to regulate them; - orientation in modern concepts and strategies for sustainable development of mankind, aimed at systematic changes in traditional forms of management and lifestyle of people in order to preserve the stability of the biosphere and the development of society without catastrophic crises; - application of the knowledge gained about the laws of interaction between living organisms and the environment in practice to preserve sustainable development. -planning of rescue operations; - assessment of emergency situations of natural and man-made nature; - assessment of working conditions to ensure safety: - implementation of basic calculations to assess the anthropogenic impact on the environment, as well as to assess the impact of natural and man-made emergencies on humans and the environment, ways and methods of protection from their negative impact.
Learning outcome: applying knowledge and understanding
  • 1. a Modern specialist should be prepared for the successful solution of emerging problems to ensure environmental safety and the safety of life of workers, production personnel and the population to eliminate the consequences of natural disasters, accidents and catastrophes.
Learning outcome: formation of judgments
  • Formation of judgments (when studying the course "Fundamentals of ecology and life safety") aimed at studying ways of safe interaction of a person with the environment (industrial, household, urban, natural), the sustainable functioning of economic facilities (organizations) in emergency situations, issues of protection from negative factors, prevention and elimination of consequences of natural and man-made emergencies and protection from the use of modern means of destruction.
Learning outcome: communicative abilities
  • The results of training and communication skills are: - application of the obtained knowledge about the laws of interaction between living organisms and the environment in practical activities for the preservation of sustainable development. - planning of rescue operations; - assessment of situations in natural and man-made emergencies; - assessment of working conditions to ensure safety: - implementation of basic calculations to assess the anthropogenic impact on the environment, as well as to assess the impact of natural and man-made emergencies on people and the environment, ways and methods of protection from their negative impact.
Learning outcome: learning skills or learning abilities
  • Training skills and indicators of learning ability are: - ability to analyze and generalize environmental factors, dangerous and harmful factors of the environment; - ability to formulate tasks on environmental, industrial safety, safety in emergencies and adapt the main laws of sustainable development of society and nature to professional activities; - knowledge of legislative and legal documents on environmental, industrial safety and security in emergencies; -application of industrial methods and technical means to protect the environment from the effects of industrial pollution and emergency situations in practice. - use the knowledge on the organization of security in emergency situations at economic facilities, at home, in the environment.
Teaching methods

Contextual learning technology-training in the context of a profession (implemented in training tasks that take into account the specifics of the direction and profile of training). Interactive learning technology (implemented in the form of training tasks involving interaction of students, the use of active feedback forms). E-learning technology (implemented using the electronic educational environment of EKSTU using the resources of the electronic library system, during automated testing).

Assessment of the student's knowledge

Teacher oversees various tasks related to ongoing assessment and determines students' current performance twice during each academic period. Ratings 1 and 2 are formulated based on the outcomes of this ongoing assessment. The student's learning achievements are assessed using a 100-point scale, and the final grades P1 and P2 are calculated as the average of their ongoing performance evaluations. The teacher evaluates the student's work throughout the academic period in alignment with the assignment submission schedule for the discipline. The assessment system may incorporate a mix of written and oral, group and individual formats.

Evaluation form

The student's final grade in the course is calculated on a 100 point grading scale, it includes:

  • 40% of the examination result;
  • 60% of current control result.

The final grade is calculated by the formula:

FG = 0,6 MT1+MT2 +0,4E
2

 

Where Midterm 1, Midterm 2are digital equivalents of the grades of Midterm 1 and 2;

E is a digital equivalent of the exam grade.

Final alphabetical grade and its equivalent in points:

The letter grading system for students' academic achievements, corresponding to the numerical equivalent on a four-point scale:

Alphabetical grade Numerical value Points (%) Traditional grade
A 4.0 95-100 Excellent
A- 3.67 90-94
B+ 3.33 85-89 Good
B 3.0 80-84
B- 2.67 75-79
C+ 2.33 70-74
C 2.0 65-69 Satisfactory
C- 1.67 60-64
D+ 1.33 55-59
D 1.0 50-54
FX 0.5 25-49 Unsatisfactory
F 0 0-24
