MatheMatical Modelling with use inforMation-coMMunication technologies in course studying ecological toxicology
Journal Title: Problems of Education in the 21st Century - Year 2009, Vol 16, Issue 11
Abstract
Ecological toxicology (ET) – one of is natural-scientifc (NSE) courses for which studying theoretical knowledge of mathematics is necessary, for chemistry, biology and others NSE courses. Biological experiments are necessary for fastening of theoretical knowledge on laboratory animal and biological test objects. For carrying out of such experiments laboratory animals, biological objects are required, and also the necessary equipment, reactants, etc. Considering the humane relation to animals and restriction of their use in experiments, methods of mathematical modeling in course studying «ЕТ» are offered. Besides, use of interactive control facilities by the information allows modeling some processes in ET. Authors conduct researches at engineering faculty of the Rezekne Higher Education Institution by preparation of engineers of protection of environment. As a result of the spent researches it is established that at students the greatest interest to studying as course ET, and a course – «Mathematical methods in environmental science» is shown. Students can visually see practical use of mathematical methods in is naturalscientifc courses. ICT application supplements better mastering of a material at a studied course. Mathematical modeling with use ICT in course studying ET raises progress of students and gives the chance to use theoretical knowledge on the mathematician.
