The test part is completely removed from the single, the Minister of Education and Science Dmitry Livanov told the masses. But as the Novaya Gazeta explained in the press center of the Ministry of Education and Science, questions about the elimination of part A in the exam tests, about the addition of the oral part of the exam in humanitarian disciplines, about the transition to the computer form of work at the exam, are still being worked out at the Federal Institute of Pedagogical Dimension. In this regard, the request: stop scaring us, formulate the clear and long -term rules of the “game”!

The theme of the exam is hot: even if the changes are introduced from the future school year, it is still very close. And it is obvious that such changes require serious preparation.

Here are quotes from Dmitry Livanov, which caused a storm on news feeds, as the Izvestia newspaper leads to them:

“ We plan to phased to exclude part A from the tasks of a single state exam from all options in all subjects.” “We also plan to introduce an oral part in the exam. At first it will be a foreign language, and then such a technology will be tested at all humanitarian items - history, literature and so on. ”

And also, according to the minister, the final changes will be prepared no later than August of this year, so that from September 1, new rules are known, according to which a single state exam will be held in 2015.

"New" turned to the press center of the Ministry of Education and Science. We asked to answer: does the part of A, when the graduate should make a choice from the proposed answers, will be excluded from next year from next year? Is the procedure for conducting the oral part of the state examinated? Will there be a running -in, or innovations are planned to be accepted immediately from next year? And another fundamental question: what will happen to children who cannot cope with the exam after the exclusion of the easiest part A? In past years, some weak graduates were not accepted at all for the creative part with: there were enough answers to the Troika in parts A and B. These points were easiest to get. Obviously, without them, the number of children who will not be not prior to a positive assessment will grow up. Will they receive certificates of secondary education? If not, what projects of their life management are prepared?

We received the answer from the press center on the same day. Oksana Reshetnikova, director of the Federal Institute of Pedagogical Dimension (FIPI), explained that the developers of the instrumental materials of the state examination “ carefully analyze the feasibility of refusing the exam from tasks with the choice of answer” because in recent years “the critical mood of the public has intensified in relation to such tasks”. There was a common opinion that the completion of tasks is red to guess. But Oksana Alexandrovna writes that experts consider the existing opinion erroneous, and the complete exclusion of such tasks "can adversely affect the reliability of the exam results." The question of the abandonment of such tasks will be submitted for discussion of the Academic Council of FIPI. They will decide on what subjects to maintain tasks with the choice of an answer, by what - to reduce, and in which cases it is completely eliminated, as it has already been done in mathematics and literature. The question of conducting the exam in orally "will also be discussed in thoroughly, all the positive effects of such a decision and possible risks are weighed.

“This year, a single state exam will not undergo any changes, the announced proposals relate to possible prospects. All changes will be introduced in stages with the obligatory socio-professional discussion and scientific analysis of the problem, ”the director of FIPI assured.

Thank you for the answer, but there are even more questions.

When and what will change, apparently, it will be clear, as the minister said, by the beginning of the future school year. But the next year is not indifferent. My youngest son, for example, is studying in the 10th grade. They exhaled after the GIA, try to gain air before the future, graduation year, in front of the exam. But there is no even breathing: the ministry all the time changes the conditions of the game in the course of the game itself. This year there was already: the return of the final essay; change of profile items for entering universities; accounting for the average certificate point upon admission; Accounting for the surrender of TRP standards ... Now part A will leave, and an oral exam in humanitarian subjects will appear.

Or, say, at the beginning of this year there was a story: the order of the ministry changed the list of entrance exams to universities, but the parents of high school students rebelled, and the order had to be canceled.

It is impossible to get used to Dmitry Livanov’s statements. The student of the people has patience at the end. The school today cannot prepare graduates for admission to universities. Most high school students have tutors. Parents pay for the second time what has already been paid in the form of taxes. And they don’t care what objects and in what form their children will be handed over. People do not intend to put up with the denomination of their investments conducted by the Minister of Education. Family budgets are enough and inflation.

Comment

Scientific adviser to the Institute of Educational Policy Policy "Eureka" Alexander Adamsky :

- Our ministry has no shortage of ideas. There are failures performed by the plan. The ideas are correct: improving the quality of universities, the honesty of dissertations, improving the quality of textbooks, the introduction of educational standards ... But the implementation method is chosen so simple and formal that a sound idea turns into its opposite. A good university cannot be distinguished from bad; High -quality textbooks that have proven themselves with many years of practice are excluded from the list. This is the specificity of this ministry: extremely formalized mechanistic performance. Indicators, criteria emasculate the essence of the process itself. So it is in improving the exam. I would not discredit the test part. It is necessary to cope with her. The fact that something does not work out in Russia does not mean that we must refuse it. We will go so far. The rules of the road are also poorly observed with us. The ministry, apparently, hopes that Part A will be removed, and claims will leave about the game “In Guessing” and dragging. But this is pure populism.

Much depends on how the exam of this year passes. No need to be distracted and distracting public attention to the problems of the future school year. Let's live 2014, and after that it will become largely clear whether this will be implemented by the Ministry of 2015? I drive a lot to the regions, I see preparation. The cameras that are now put are hopelessly outdated: bulky, work poorly. The schedule for importing examination Kims with the participation of the FSB is complicated. It is necessary to decide what to do with the GIA in the 9th grade-the problem is that those who do not pass the GIA will not be able to go to the 10th. Where will they go? This is the acute social problem.

Instead, the pyramids of initiatives. How will the ministry get out of this situation? Distract attention? They do not want to understand serious things, but fill the information space with fakes such as an effective contract - empty words, behind which nothing costs. But serious things: for example, the introduction of a preschool education standard is practically torn by the ministry: they were late with the adoption and registration in the Ministry of Justice, lately gave the regions methodological recommendations, did not have time for the time when they accepted budgets. As a result of money, there is no money to introduce the standard in the regions. But the minister against this background performs with dummies.
