Innovation technologies in student's independent activity and creativity development: The case of medical education

Abstract

Adaptive learning technologies that imply the application of supportive symbols and signals allow developing professional and communicative competency, as well as shaping creative abilities of students. This article provides assessment criteria for preliminary, formative, midpoint and summative assessments. This article creates a case for using supportive notes by students during the independent activity in the Emergency Medical Service class. The methodology is novel, as it implies the following way of learning - as an effective means of independent activity organization, notes were written not by teachers but by students. This method can be useful as an alternative recording technique. Accordingly, innovative learning (in our case, independent learning) is one of the main components of education. The statistics have revealed that students gain better subject knowledge with this learning technology.
