In 2017, a new model of the KIM Unified State Examination in Biology was adopted, aimed at increasing the diversity of tested aspects of biological training of graduates.

Each version of the examination paper consists of two parts. The tasks in the variant are presented in continuous numbering mode. The structure of the examination paper has been optimized:

1. The number of tasks in the examination paper has been reduced from 40 to 28.
2. In Part 1, new types of tasks are proposed, which differ significantly in the types of educational actions: to fill in the missing elements of a diagram or table, to find errors in a drawing, to analyze and synthesize information, to analyze graphs and tables with statistical data.
3. The maximum number of primary points has been slightly reduced: from 61 in 2016 to 59 in 2017.
4. The time to complete the job has been increased from 180 to 210 minutes.

In Part 2, the number and types of tasks with detailed answers remained unchanged - 7 tasks.

Particular emphasis is placed on the formation of methods of activity: mastering methodological skills; application of knowledge in explaining biological processes and phenomena, mastering the skills to solve biological problems. Testing the skills of working with biological information is carried out through its presentation in various ways (in the form of texts, drawings, diagrams, tables, graphs, diagrams).

In 2017, it is planned to exclude all tasks with a choice of one answer from the Unified State Examination in Biology. This is explained by the presence of the following significant shortcomings in them: the uniformity of the form of presentation of the content being tested, the inability to create tasks of a problematic or creative nature; lack of capacity to test students' practical skills; difficulty in identifying true gaps in mastering the content among Unified State Examination participants. A significant disadvantage of tasks with a choice of one answer is also the presence of an element of chance, guessing the correct answer.

As a comparative analysis of the Unified State Examination results over the past two years has shown, the reduction in the number of tasks in the examination paper with the choice of one correct answer from 36 to 25 did not lead to a noticeable decrease in Unified State Examination results. The share of USE participants in biology who did not score the minimum number of points remains approximately at the same level, within the limits of statistically acceptable errors.

Significant modernization in the form and structure of the CMM required adjusting the approaches to constructing the examination paper and including tasks of a new format.

In Part 1 of the new format exam paper, only short-answer tasks have been retained, but their number has been increased, and in some cases the form of their presentation has been significantly changed compared to previous years. It is known that tasks with a short answer allow not only to test a larger volume of content of an academic subject, but most importantly, to provide for the assessment of general academic and subject skills (comparison, generalization, classification, systematization, explanation, solving educational and practical problems, etc.), which corresponds to modern trends in the development of general education.

Along with the preservation of existing tasks, new biological tasks appeared, and the range of tasks with drawings expanded.

As an example of a modernized task, we give task 3 (here and below are tasks from the project of the CMM demonstration version).

This is a computational biological problem. The task was created on the basis of tasks with a choice of one answer that are traditional for the KIM Unified State Exam in biology. In the new edition, the Unified State Exam participant, based on knowledge of genetic information and the chromosomal set of somatic and germ cells, independently carries out all the necessary calculations.

As an example of a task for working with a drawing, we give task 4.

The peculiarity of this task model is that the person being certified is asked to derive two of its characteristic features from a “blind” image of an object (there are no captions for the picture). Moreover, one of the signs given in the task tests knowledge of the morphology of the object, while the second tests knowledge of properties or functions. Such tasks test, in addition to the ability to work with visual information, knowledge in the field of the cell and its vital functions.

Along with well-known or modernized types of tasks, the examination paper includes completely new tasks that test the mastery of the conceptual apparatus by filling in gaps in diagrams, tables, working with graphs, tables, histograms, etc. All of them are aimed at strengthening the activity basis and making the examination work more practice-oriented.

As an example of such tasks, task 1 can serve.

This task allows you to test not only knowledge of the conceptual apparatus of the biology course, but also the ability to establish the subordination and hierarchy of terms (concepts), as well as their internal logical connection.

Let's consider examples of tasks (task 21) for working with information presented in graphical or tabular form, a task for analyzing research results.

It seems that with the help of such tasks it is possible to ensure that graduates have developed the fundamentals of a holistic scientific picture of the world and the ability to analyze, evaluate and generalize scientific information.

The new model of the KIM Unified State Exam is consistent with the existing model of the Unified State Exam 9 in biology. Certain types of tasks, which in a modernized form will be included in the KIM in 2017, have successfully passed many years of testing during the certification of students in basic general education programs and are available in the open bank of OGE tasks. They can become the basis for preparing students for the Unified State Exam in biology in the coming academic year.

As an example of continuity, task 9 can serve.

In the OGE, with the help of such tasks, knowledge of the structure, life activity and significance of animal and plant organisms is tested. In the new model of the Unified State Exam KIM, bacteria and viruses will be added to these objects.

In general, in the exam model of the Unified State Exam 2017, the objects of control, as in previous years, are the knowledge and skills that form the invariant core of the content of the biology course in primary and secondary schools, its sections “Plants”, “Bacteria, fungi, lichens”, “Animals” ", "Man and his health", "General biology". These sections are presented in the Codifier in the form of seven content blocks and requirements for the level of training of graduates of educational organizations for the 2017 unified state exam in biology.

The proposed manual is addressed to high school students and applicants for preparing for the Unified State Exam in Biology. The biology exam is one of the exams that a secondary school graduate takes as an option. The Unified State Examination is carried out using tasks of a standardized form - control measuring materials (CMM), which test biological knowledge for the entire school course from grades 5 to 11. The main criterion for selecting tasks was their statistical characteristics and the degree of difficulty in the corresponding intervals: basic level - 60-85%, advanced level - 30-60%, high level - 5-30%. This ensured a fairly high scientific and methodological level of KIM in biology, objectivity of tasks, parallelism of all options, compliance of Unified State Exam options with the codifier and specification.
The content of the test at the Unified State Exam includes knowledge and skills in all sections of the school course, which form the invariant core of the content of biological education and which are reflected in the 2004 standard for basic and advanced levels, in various biology curricula recommended by the Ministry of Education and Science Russia for use in educational institutions.
A significant place in the work is given to the control of theoretical knowledge and general biological patterns that manifest themselves at different levels of organization of living nature. These include theories: cellular, chromosomal, evolutionary; laws of heredity and variability; ecological patterns of biosphere development. From the basic school, material about the classification, structure, and vital functions of organisms from different kingdoms of living nature, their role in nature and human life is tested. In addition, the test tasks test material of a practical nature, such as the consequences of human activity on the environment, compliance with disease prevention measures and healthy lifestyle rules, behavioral norms in nature, solving biological problems, etc.

The biology exam is selective and only those who are confident in their knowledge will take it. The Unified State Exam in biology is considered a difficult subject, since it tests the knowledge accumulated over all years of study.

The Unified State Exam (USE) tasks in biology are of different types; solving them requires solid knowledge of the main topics of the school biology course. Based on this, teachers developed over 10 test tasks on each topic.

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

Changes in KIM Unified State Examination 2019 in biology:

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

Structure of Unified State Examination tasks in biology:

• Part 1– these are tasks from 1 to 21 with a short answer; approximately 5 minutes are allotted for completion.

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 for completion.

Advice: express your thoughts in a literary manner, answer the question in detail and comprehensively, define biological terms, even if this is not required in the assignments. The answer should have a plan, not write in continuous text, but highlight points.

What is required of the student in the exam?

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

Points for each USE biology task

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

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

How to Prepare for Biology Tests

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

Register, study and get a high score!

Changes in the Unified State Examination in Biology in 2017

Posted on 10.09.2016 by Boris Sadykov

Hello, dear readers of the biology tutor blog via Skype.

Finally, I have the opportunity to give an intelligible answer to your many questions about changes in the Unified State Examination in biology in 2017.

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

Yes, yes, very absurd rumors that the test part will supposedly be deleted.

Was the Unified State Exam bad in its previous form?

The rumors were reinforced by the fact that even from the very inception of the Unified State Exam, as a form of certification of students, which allows students to be enrolled in a university based on the results of passing the Unified State Exam, 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” "on memorization rather than understanding the material.

But only those who themselves had never taught at school or university could think so. From the very beginning, the exam in the form of the Unified State Exam included, in addition to test parts (), necessary to test students’ knowledge of a huge terminological base, also ( estimated to be three times more expensive than Part A).

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

The Federal Institute of Pedagogical Measurements (FIPI) dispels all rumors

On August 26, 2016, FIPI on its official website published projects documents regulating the structure and content of control measuring materials of the Unified State Exam 2017.

Let's look Codifier. There are no . In order to prepare well for the exam, you must, as before, study biology comprehensively in the following 7 blocks:

First block“Biology as a science. Methods of scientific knowledge" controls material about the achievements of biology, research methods, and the main levels of organization of living nature.

Second block“The Cell as a Biological System” contains tasks that test: knowledge about the structure, life activity and diversity of cells; the ability to establish the relationship between the structure and functions of cell organelles, recognize and compare cells of different organisms, the processes occurring in them.

Third block“Organism as a biological system” controls the assimilation of knowledge about the laws of heredity and variability, about the ontogenesis and reproduction of organisms, about the selection of organisms
and biotechnology, and also reveals the level of mastery of the ability to apply biological knowledge when solving problems in genetics.

In the fourth The block “System and diversity of the organic world” tests: knowledge about the diversity, structure, life activity and reproduction of organisms of various kingdoms of living nature and viruses;
the ability to compare organisms, characterize and determine their belonging to a specific systematic taxon.

Fifth block“The human body and its health” is aimed at determining the level of mastery of the system of knowledge about the structure and vital functions of the human body.

To the sixth block“Evolution of Living Nature” includes tasks aimed at controlling: knowledge about the species, driving forces, directions and results of the evolution of the organic world; skills to explain the main aromorphoses in the evolution of flora and fauna, to establish the relationship between the driving forces and results of evolution.

Seventh block“Ecosystems and their inherent patterns” contains tasks aimed at testing: knowledge about environmental patterns, the cycle of substances in the biosphere; skills to establish relationships between organisms in ecosystems, identify causes of sustainability,
self-development and change of ecosystems.

But there are indeed changes in the 2017 CMM compared to the 2016 CMM ( see Demo versions, specifications, Unified State Exam codifiers 2017. Biology)

These changes mainly concern the optimization of the very structure of the examination paper :

1. Tasks in the form of one digit corresponding to the number of the correct answer are excluded.
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 has been increased from 180 to 210 minutes.
5. Part 1 includes new types of tasks that differ significantly in the types of learning activities : filling in the missing elements of a diagram or table, finding the correctly indicated symbols in the figure, analyzing and synthesizing information, including that presented in the form of graphs, diagrams and tables with statistical data.

New structure of KIM Unified State Exam in 2017

Thus, each version of the CMM exam paper now contains only 28 tasks and consists of 2 parts, varying in form and level of complexity.

Part 1 contains 21 tasks:

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

This, in fact, is where all the fuss lies about the rumors about eliminating the test part from the exams. As we see, only the former part has been shortened and changed A. Test tasks related earlier to the part IN, it 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 diagram;
1 task – to complete 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 Unified State Exam, so students and biology tutors should pay special attention to how to answer them).

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

Part 2 contains 7 tasks with detailed answers.

In these tasks, as before, the answer is formulated and written down by the examinee independently in detailed 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 tasks from various blocks of the Codifier are distributed in the exam paper in Part 1 and Part 2.

As you can see, all sections of biology in Part 1 and Part 2 of any version of the examination paper should be distributed equally. That is, there should not be any “distortions” in terms of the fact that in some version there would be, for example, a lot of botany, and in another there would be 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 O the largest share in the assessment (66%) is for test part of the work(this answers the question that tests will be canceled starting from 2017).

conclusions

The strategy itself in preparation for passing the Unified State Exam in biology in 2017 should. It is necessary to study biology using various school textbooks and reference materials within the framework of the same main 7 sections of the Codifier.

Since the test part of the examination paper has undergone significant changes, now, “without delaying it,” you should study it very carefully Demo version of KIM Unified State Exam 2017 of the year. Pay special attention to the correct completion of the answer forms for the assignments presented in the new form.

In general, I can state that passing the biology exam in 2017 will be much more difficult than before (there is no longer the opportunity to get completely “free” points for simply guessing). It will be more difficult to achieve both the minimum threshold and get the maximum number of points. But, the main thing is that the versions of the examination papers themselves do not differ much from each other in complexity, so that all applicants are placed in approximately equal conditions.
