<p>Most first-year students of the natural-geographical department demonstrate a low level of school chemistry training and experience difficulties in passing the exam in this discipline. An effectively organized independent work of students and its timely control make it possible to overcome these difficulties The author has developed a score-rating system for knowledge assessment that can facilitate the procedure. The educational content of the subject is divided into subject modules. For each subject, several types of training activities are indicated and fixed in the technological map of the discipline. The system involves some criteria for evaluating the results of educational activities, of which students are aware. The test score is summarized with that of the term academic performance and the final grade is calculated. This system allows students a clearer and more timely understanding of the assessment system; it allows them to realize the need for systematic independent work, which is especially important in the study of such a time-consuming subject as chemistry.<strong></strong></p>

The article describes the simplified model of the point-rating assessment system developed by the author, which he called the cumulative system of points in mathematics when teaching bachelors of the specialty 38.03.01-Economics, and analyzes the results of its practical application. It differs from most existing BRS models in that the points received by the student for work during the semester are not a mandatory component of the final assessment, but act as an addition to the assessment received at the intermediate certification. The proposed cumulative system of points for the discipline "Mathematics" does not require much effort from the teacher and is simple and understandable for students, while the final assessment becomes more objective. The use of a cumulative system of points leads to the activation of independent work of students during the entire period of studying mathematics, the growth of interest in the subject, which contributes to improving the quality of the educational process.

Queen’s University has a common first year for engineering. A few years ago a project/design course was introduced, APSC100, which has been quite successful. It was predicated on the fact that students who are attracted to engineering are really excited about the possibility of “doing engineering” early in their student experience. The design of Chemical processes is something that few if any first year students have any appreciation of. We are in the process of developing a project for APSC100 which will introduce the subject as well as have the students work with a commercial FlowSheet simulator. We believe that simulators “warts and all (1)” can be an excellent learning tool, and exposure to these programs is essential as they have become so much a part of today’s engineering career experience. Commercial Flowsheet simulators continue to be a challenge for people with many years familiarity with these systems. There is however a potential for a great deal of learning about the “design process” by the use of these tools, provided these tools are presented in such a way as to be challenging but not intimidating. The paper will describe the approach to developing the APSC100 module, the challenges faced and the anticipated solutions. One particular problem will be developing something that will interest a broad spectrum of students. It has been noted that “Chemistry” often seems to be a subject that is avoided by many. This module will hopefully demonstrate the fact that “Chemistry” is one of the basic sciences and how it is the basis for much of the product of the modern world. Since this is a “work-in-progress” we anticipate and welcome suggestions as to how to present a successful module to our students.

Each year we ask many of our first-year students at the University of Oregon to list the mathematical subjects or topics that they liked best and topics they liked least in their precollege classes. Although several subjects were “favorites,” the subject that was almost universalJy disliked was geome- try in high school.

In this work, a monitoring experience of student workload and attendance is presented. During four academic years, from 2015 until 2019, first-year students of an Engineering degree have been asked, three times a week, to estimate their autonomous workload devoted to the Statistics subject. The monitoring strategy has been anonymous, open and voluntary and has shown a high ratio of participation: 407 students out of 433. To generate the final dataset this information has been combined with attending records to classroom-based lectures and final grades achieved. Results indicate that declared student’s workload hardly reaches the 90 hours of autonomous work established in the ECTS ratio of our university. Nonparametric comparisons show strong statistical evidences of the relationship between final grades in the subject and declared workload and attendance. We find that attendance is crucial in order to achieve a homogeneous workload along the semester and a success in the subject’s grading.
